We had a 2025 turbo ct for 300 miles and 48 hours. We had several faults and returned the car. We have been lent a 2025 GTS which is much better balanced with no problems. We now have a brand new GTS with Par on order. I agree with d00d in regard to the styling. I understand how they are trying...

The GTS will always be a firmer ride as it’s a different beast. it’s a shame you did not have a J1.2 GTS with active ride to compare

Care to share the spec and price you paid ?

Thanks Trycan. It’s good to hear positive feedback on PAR.

Extended warranty is a valid point. What components would be classed as wear and tear versus actual failed components. Sensors, pumps and control units would be expected to be covered by warranty, however, active dampers would be classed as wear and tear. I expect the difficulty will come in...

I am looking to spec a new Taycan with Active ride. We all hear about problems but what about the cars that have been faultless. Has anyone covered a significant mileage without any faults ?.

I think the advantage is the car being eligible for more updates that will retain the value of the car better than without ie virtual transmission. But agreed there is not much gain and the attack mode is a gimmick, however, when the car is a few years old and the car is obtainable by many they...

I have noticed that the Gt steering wheel with paddles shifters is now available for the Taycan sport Turismo turbo and turbo s after being introduced for the Gts and Gt. Does anyone know if the paddle shifters will be available for the cross turismo turbo and turbo s ?. If you are buying new it...

We purchased a brand new turbo just 4 weeks ago. Within 7 days we experienced transmission failure, charge port error where the door was stuck half way and charging error. We rejected the car. The J1.2 is unreliable and whilst I appreciate owners reporting an improvement over j1.1 the faults are...

Some faults with taycan

The Taycan price increase last time was to prop up the value of Taycans. I believe Porsche are storing Taycans and drip feeding into the market to protect their value. You can see this by their vin numbers, new cars for sale were built a long time ago.

Compared to the Cross Turismo it may not be two worlds apart. The changes in battery tech including inductive charging and modules are a step in the right direction. I just don’t know why you would choose to buy a Taycan over the Cayenne now. The performance figures alone are enough to make you...

The new Cayenne Turbo released yesterday for £130k seems incredible value vs the Taycan Turbo S. Surely the Cayenne will create further drops in value to the Taycan.

We had the same promise with our latest charger we purchased from them in July 2024. We have spent nearly £5k with them over 5 years yet they still refused to assist in anyway. I am just sharing my experience to help others make Annie formed decision.

Thanks Jin, it’s a valid point. We don’t need any smart scheduling, we just need to add a schedule. Hopefully less is more 🤞.
