    Worth paying off finance early on my first gen taycan?

    That is correct. And you really don’t want to claim back VAT you shouldn’t have, it’s a bit of a ‘trigger’ for HMRC! The exception is a lease (with no ownership possibility) where you can claim back half of the VAT on the monthly payments, or of course 100% of the VAT if the car is entirely for...

    Taycan Turbo 2021 - Fire Quarantine

    Can’t believe they are replacing the components again, for a fourth time. Their failure is surely a symptom of a larger underlying fault. The probability of the components themselves being faulty each and every time is impossibly small. Terrible experience, Porsche really need to step in with a...

    Taycan as a long term car?

    Weirdly I think the EQS is not that comfortable for rear seat passengers. It has plenty of room, but the seats are in a slightly awkward position which is not entirely comfortable. I had an S Class which was way more comfortable in the back. However the EQS as the driver is incredibly...

    Taycan as a long term car?

    Mercedes EQS? BMW i7? Rolls Royce Spectre? Way more luxurious than the Taycan. Though I’d personally rather drive the Taycan most days - exceptions being when I have to drive to the airport (crappy range) and when it doesn’t work properly!

    Maserati GranTurismo Folgore

    Yeah looks nice, cool to get the pics. Would like to check one out in person when they are ready and make my judgment then.

    Watch collectors - let's talk watches here!

    My purchases from the past 2 years - AP Royal Oak, Vacheron Patrimony and Patek Calatrava. However I mostly wear a Rolex datejust II that my parents gave me as an amazing 21st present. I have been actively collecting watches since 2013, would always buy a few a year (not necessarily keeping...

    What a beautiful car..

    It’s amazing how no one else has managed to make a truly beautiful electric car. Every other EV looks like a blob, normally due to the big battery underneath making the car tall. Meanwhile the Taycan looks as sleek and muscular as the best designed ICE cars. A real triumph of design.

    2025 Taycan configurator now available!

    I think the slow down in EV take up in the UK (which is making headlines) will encourage the next government (whoever it is) to keep things favourable. I doubt BIK will come down from the raises already scheduled i, but any further raises may be a bit slower than they otherwise would have been...

    Take a new 2024 or wait for a 2025?

    I also am someone for whom there is a regular journey I do that the current Taycan just does not quite have the range for, you can do it, but it’s stressful - especially in winter! If I had know about the details of the new one a couple months ago, i would have waited for it instead.

    Would anybody like a setting which emulates the uneven power delivery in IC engines?

    I remember the Ferrari California T, which was one of the first turbo engine variants for a modern Ferrari of that type, had a map to specifically reduce power to make the driver work the gears and revs more naturally. In my opinion it worked well and the car was a more sporting drive, than feel...

    Anyone regret going from 20s to 21s?

    Taycan only looks really special with the 21s, can look a bit normal to me with the 20s options. So if design is a top thing for you, you 100% have to go for the 21s. Looks so good. However I find road noise very bad with 21s. So if cabin comfort is your top priority then you may well regret...

    tree fell on taycan

    It sounds like the insurance are not willing to play ball and so you are looking for a cost effective way to sort yourself? I don’t know how it is elsewhere, but in the UK the whole insurance industry is a complete rip off. (Minor scratch on someone else’s car and you (via insurance) will be on...

    Used Taycan with replaced battery - red flag?

    No auto fold mirrors would be close to a deal breaker for me! But if everything else was perfect I’d probably live with it, but such an annoying feature to be missing… such a basic thing to make standard.

    Lot of Taycan for sale with low miles

    2 years and 12k miles is not really that low at all, and with 1 owner that looks great. Most Ferraris you see CPO 2 years old are on half that mileage. I would not worry so much about the legacy models like a 911 as I said - this is just an extra precaution on the Taycan as we know there are a...

    Lot of Taycan for sale with low miles

    The Taycan is a great car, but it’s a daily driver not an exotic. It should not be racking up owners faster than miles. It’s only weekenders and track cars you see doing that. If I see a low mile CPO with more than 2 owners (sometimes 1st is the dealer), I would not even bother calling them...

    Big Discounts on new Taycans

    There are few tax breaks in the U.K., except for EVs which attract HUGE ones, for business owners you get 50% off the cost of your Taycan. And salaried employees have access to similar deals through an employer scheme. For maximum tax breaks it is best to buy a new car on a lease. Important to...
