  1. Gentian Blue Metallic - Will it Look Purplish?

    Absolutely agree this colour looks sensational in sunny climates when the car is clean. In the UK on a dull cloudy day it doesn't seem to maintain the same look and in my view looks slightly flat - that's a significant proportion of the time here!
  2. Porsche Dashcam Installed - Review and Overview for US Taycan Owners

    Hello - I'm expecting a MY23 ST 4S to arrive in October. Does anyone know if UK cars have pre-installed hardwiring for a dashcam as standard? I recall seeing something written about US cars having this now and I can't see anything on the UK configurator that shows this as an option. For those...
  3. Price increase again ?

    I agree and I appreciate it won’t help you, but before I placed my order I spoke to a number of dealerships to establish where in the queue I would sit if I placed an order. This varied from number 3, through to number 18. This might help other potential buyers who are looking. I’m fortunate to...
  4. Price increase again ?

    It’s difficult to comment on the influence of established relationships as I haven’t purchased a Porsche for nearly a 20 years, but I placed an order for 4S ST in March 22, confirmed build in May and locked spec in July. From what I’ve investigated it’s definitely worth shopping around as some...
  5. Price increase again ?

    Yes, I've just had this confirmed by my dealer too. If you have a build slot confirmed then your price is fixed. It's only new orders that are affected. Phew!
  6. gtechniqplatinum ceramic coating

    Can I call on the experience of the forum for ceramic coating advice. Every detailer I've spoken to offers different products - each claiming there's is the latest and best. Many claim gtechniq is outdated and yet their website claims cutting edge - https://www.gtechniqplatinum.com/. Those...
  7. Which Charging Providers (UK)

    I'm hoping to get my ST 4S in a few months. Which charge provider apps does the average Tyacan driver need in the UK to benefit from charging away from home? As an electric virgin I really don't know which charge points are most reliable / best value? TIA.
  8. Ceramic coating in the UK (London) - recommendations?

    As not much of an expert on ceramic I went back to look at the quotes: Autoprotek say: Exterior Paint work Protection All painted surfaces are cleaned, clay bar decontaminated, stage 1 polished and Ceramic Coated using Gtecniq CSL. This will enhance the finish by adding gloss and protecting the...
  9. Ceramic coating in the UK (London) - recommendations?

    Price differences are very signiifcant when I've been looking as well. Each argue their product is better than the competitor when it comes to the ceramic coat. I tried contacting Topaz 3 times with no success .......so I wouldn't choose them, if they are too busy to worry about customer...
  10. MY2023 Taycan changes summary video

    I'd be interested in any UK experiences of fitting a dashcam. Seems to drop insurance a reasonable amount. Does Porsche offer this as an option to fit in the UK as nothing on the configurator?
  11. Matching wheels to Carmine Red or Ice Grey 4S ST

    I have a few more weeks to lock down my spec and I'm alternating between Carmine Red or Ice Grey as my future Sports Turismo. I've only been able to see a sedan in Carmine Red, but sedan and CT in Ice Grey. Both look fantastic (I'm not a fan or the darker colours). Being able to see the wheel...
  12. UK Dealer with shortest delivery time

    I thought this thread may help those based in the UK decide where to purchase their Porsche. I have 6 dealerships within 45 minutes drive but found all were fairly reluctant to discuss potential delivery slots or where you might be on their wait list unless you paid them a visit. Finding time...
  13. Delivery Delays

    I think I just got lucky - number 3 in the queue at Tonbridge porsche
  14. Delivery Delays

    So last Friday I receive an email offering me my UK Porsche Driving experience and today I receive an email from my dealership confirming they have received their Taycan allocations through to the end of the year! So deposit paid March and ST 4S build confirmed for November, so assuming...
  15. Delivery Delays

    My local UK Porsche dealer emailed this message when I asked for an update last week.... At the moment we are awaiting for the allocations for Macan and Taycan. Usually Porsche will give allocations of 3 months at a time but due to the severe disruption of wiring harness coming from suppliers...
  16. Best Value UK Tarriff for Charging

    Thanks I'm with Octopus, but don't have a smart meter which is what they require for the nigh time EV rates. I'm always rather suspicious of the smart meters and non-compatibility between suppliers but even a 4 hour nightly cheap top up is worth considering.
  17. Best Value UK Tarriff for Charging

    Hello - hoping to receive delivery of my ST 4S in the autumn and with the price of electricity spiralling in the UK just wondered if anyone has found a particular supplier who looks better value for charging from home? They all seem to be quite similar but thought I'd check on advice from those...
  18. Floor mats - factory or aftermarket feedback?

    My Taycan 4S is some way off build but just wondered what thoughts more experienced members had on purchasing floor mats. The Porsche options seem pretty pricey and I don’t know how good their quality is. Any recommendations on which mats to purchase - Porsche or any other manufacturer for UK...
  19. "June 2023 delivery expected if ordering today". How much can I trust it?

    I'm returning to the world of Porsche ownership after a 15 year break. My 997C2s had to go with the arrival of my 2nd child and more sensible cars have been needed since! I placed an order for a Sports Turismo 4s in March and was told I was number 3 in the queue at my local UK dealer with...
