    Goodbye folks... 4s and 3 year summary review...

    Hi! Long time, no post :-) So my MY21 4S is being returned next week (contract hire via biz) and here are my views: It was fine as a car It was average at best with software and technology I should have had the larger battery - you could pick back then Some of the features have simply never...

    MY21 4S - 18Months in... A quick synopsis

    So the car has done 17k miles in that time (Dec 20 start) so a bit of covid in 21 reduced my typical mileage but here are my quick views: Great car - sh1t software New tyres at 14k which was a bit surprising given not been hammering it but heavy flat car and have at times been "quick" App /...

    InnoDrive trial (free for 3m)

    Imagine my excitement when the porsche connect email landed, personalised with my car details and offer to use above for 3 months (£18 thereafter). Now, I basically knew that my car (4s) probably did not have the base hardware to support this but it did get my hopes up. Logged in and there you...

    Why does the PCM not consistently reconnect iphone and settings?

    As above really, quite a nuisance. So you get in car (a MY21 post update 4S) and quite often the PCM won't auto reconnect phone although it know's it's there and set to connect. You have to force bt on devices and 9/10 same with Carplay which usually takes up to 12 attempts! It's an Iphone 12...

    Another road trip (Staffs to Tyneside and return)

    Nice trip up to north-east yesterday, rolled into Ionity at Leeds and worked perfectly, topped up in Sunderland at "FastNED" whom had excellent value PAYG 350KW chargers. Seemless charging tbh, really good and wow, the speed on those chargers!

    Excited to be making a trip!

    So I have done a total of 700 miles in the two months I have had it due to the covid. On Tuesday next week I get to take a genuinely essential business trip and may even have to charge whilst out! How sad is it that this is genuinely making me excited!!! :D

    Passenger window won't close issue...

    Hi Guys, So I cleaned the car yesterday and it was fine afterwards when we went out etc. I came back and put it on charge and happened to pop out a bit later to notice the passenger side window was half open. Temp had dropped so suspected some moisture in the recess had triggered a sensor as...

    Quick 4S Review - 4 1/2 days in :-)

    Let me start by saying, it's constantly putting a smile on my face and generally has been superb so far. As my car is on a company basis I didn't spec tons of options but impressed with the standard features in comparison to other Porsche's we have had and currently own: Love the driving, the...

    New Connect account or go joint?

    Hi - I have a connect account for our other Porsche and in theory I can add a vehicle to that (the Taycan) and access both.... however the Connect issues described on here suggest that might further complicate an already somewhat difficult experience. Any thoughts?

    4s on track... yay

    Dealer emailed that left factory yesterday and on way to Emden today. Slightly ahead of schedule but as long as it lands here before 31/12 it's all good. Phew

    Impact of latest CV19 peaks on supply

    With Germany now in stricter conditions and UK following suit i wonder ( selfishly I know ) how this might impact our deliveries? Health way more important of course and safety of everyone paramount. This car better be worth waiting for and in the meantime will have to borrow sons 911

    Cayenne v Macan

    Morning from a sunny UK (weather rather than the mood!), So my wife wants to trade in her 2016 Macan GTS and is undecided about another Macan or get back into a Cayenne. She loves the smaller feel (and noise!) of the Macan but now I've ditched my ICE 4x$ we may have to consider something larger...

    FoD in the UK...

    Hi, Having specified my 4S based on a contract hire company budget I noticed that some of those expensive options are now available via the FoD in the connect content. So to clarify, I can upgrade after the event for say Lane Assist on a subscriptive basis? Bit of a game changer if so.. Imagine...
