Worth every penny (of someone else’s money) if it is fixed

More than a new battery?

Oh it's a guessing contest

27.000£ (vat included)

50k pounds.

… I think Doc Brown’s creation was more reliable..

Trying to push 1.21 gigawatts through a Taycan could end in tears!

I believe it is. 42 years, major components original, still going strong. Drives great!

Well!!… that return, after 5 months, was short lived!.

This time it’s the air suspension’s turn… failed with a bang without warning!!…luckily, I wasn’t travelling fast.

?

Cost to date….£32k + VAT and now this!

Wow. Sorry to hear that.

You definitely should consider having the car sprayed with holy water or resort to some kind of exorcism.

Did the suspension suddently fail? Like bam or did it rapidly deflate? I've seen at least one other thread about something like that happening (suddently deflating)

?… sent it back to it’s adoptive home with cables, keys and fobs. I’m having a complete sense of humour failure!.

the air bag went pop with an instant failure!!… I was expecting to find a flat tyre.

Nick, for the motor replacement, were there any service notes describing reprogramming or identifying the new motor?

Any chance you could post a picture of the service technicians notes? Thanks!

I wasn’t given any paperwork when the car was returned.
