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.

I think this looks great

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...

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.

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...

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.

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...

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...

Hmmm… I think maybe that is your range on the way down the mountains? lol

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...

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.

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...

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...

That MG looks very cool! Be interested to see if it’s any good in person.

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...

I find number plates with a person’s name hilarious. Reminds me of a child writing their name on stuff. I would personally just let that one expire and forget about it. That being said I do like private plates for aesthetic reasons. Something a bit shorter than standard and with symmetrical...

That looks like every German car currently on the market combined into one.

I found tyre roar quite bad with the 21” wheels. So I would go for 20s at most. The wind noise is very low with the acoustic glass pack at least, so go for the smallest wheels you are happy with visually for a smoother ride and quieter cabin! I have not tried the Burmester system as the £...

Tip about wheels - buy only an OEM wheel from a genuine supplier or an aftermarket wheel from a reputable brand. Never buy replica OEM from an aftermarket brand. The sort of company which is willing to rip off someone else’s design is unlikely to be the company who ensures the highest quality...

In the U.K. we have the most bizarre ‘insurance’ called ‘GAP insurance’, dealers always try the hard sell of it when you buy a car. Basically what it does is, in the case of a crash where you car is written off, it gives you the difference between what you paid for the car and what your insurer...
