    21 inch rs spyder tires -- how is ride quality?

    We have 21” on our GTS, after having 20” on both our previous Taycans. 21” aren’t as comfortable. They also suffer from juddering (Ackerman effect) once the temperature drops and manoeuvring at slow speeds which is quite unpleasant. The 21s do look better though (IMO).

    Placing custom order for CT, would love feedback on couple of features

    I can’t add much in terms of PTS colour variations, however I’d consider clicking the ‘Exterior Inlays in High Gloss Black’. You’ve already specified the window surrounds in black so keeps the colour palette correct, and in my opinion, the standard silver isn’t great. in regards to RWS I don’t...

    Taycan 4S Pricing and Residuals

    Evening David, the numbers you’re quoting match my experience. We’re looking to sell our 4S CT. Do you mind me asking which dealers offered to purchase? My local were only interested in SOR.

    CarPlay vs radio

    This shortcut is superb! Thanks for sharing. I’ve found CarPlay frustrating over the past few years and was almost at the point of forgoing it in favour of the standard Bluetooth, but this has sorted the job! Excellent stuff.

    4S vs GTS

    I’m sure you won’t regret it! Out of interest, have the dealers committed to honouring the £100k trade in value at point of the GTS delivery or is that offer simply todays price?

    4S vs GTS

    I’ve just moved from a couple of 4S (saloon & CT) to a GTS ST. All of which were from Chester coincidentally. Having only owned the GTS for a little over a week I’d say it does feel more special, and I’m yet to see another on the road. Externally the GTS side skirts make a nice touch, as are...

    Loadspace Partition Net

    Thank you for sharing. Please keep us posted on how you address the OEM boot liner, I’m going to have exactly the same issue. 🤬 You’re absolutely right in saying this solution isn’t a patch on BMW! Doing this in our 5 series touring was a 30 second job. I just need to work out where my ‘net...

    Anybody bought the backrest protector???

    We have the Porsche branded seat back protectors and rear seat protectors for the child seats. They aren’t pretty, but I’m glad they’re there when our 4 and 2 year old are swinging their legs! Ours have been in 3 different cars now and still look like new, despite fairly heavy usage. Although...

    Loadspace Partition Net

    Evening all, I took delivery of our GTS ST last week and had added the ‘loadspace partition net’ option. The car has the receiving unit in the roof above the rear seats, but no sign of the net? Anyone have experience of how this is meant to come/work? I’m assuming the net is part of the...

    Tyre scrubbing and juddering at full turning lock - only on 21" alloys?

    Very interesting! Thank you for sharing.

    Tyre scrubbing and juddering at full turning lock - only on 21" alloys?

    Just to confirm that the 21” RS Spider wheels on the GTS do indeed skip/jump when on full lock. Our 4S Sedan and 4S CT were both on 20” Turbo wheels and neither suffered from this. I had similar on a m140i, and it wasn’t a particularly pleasurable experience back then and neither is it now...

    So close it's killing me...

    We suffered similar delays at the port, but thankfully the car turned up at the OPC and a quick turnaround meant we picked our GTS ST up yesterday! Well worth the wait. Just need the ice to thaw now! Good luck!

    GTS Turismo vs CT4S -- comfort, suspension height, other factors to consider?

    Picked our GTS ST up this afternoon and very, very happy! Great handover as always by Chester OPC. Weather was bright but very cold and traffic heavy on the relatively short drive home. Initial thoughts: - Sportier suspension is noticeable, not sure it’s better or worse but certainly...

    UK order status and delays?

    I’m in exactly the same position! Keeping fingers crossed that the PDI goes well ahead of collection next week. 🤞🏽 I had the heater issue in our first Taycan, thankfully this was in the summer. It would be a bigger issue in a damp December! 😂

    UK order status and delays?

    Looks fantastic. We’ve had blackberry on our past 2 Taycan’s and love it. We’ve gone black for our imminent arrival, already missing the blackberry! Enjoy!

    At last. Black Taycan GTS arrived

    That looks fantastic! Happy wife, happy life.

    UK order status and delays?

    Just had the call from our OPC, our car has arrived and we’re booked in for collection on the 16th December!

    UK order status and delays?

    Suffering similar delays with my Crayon ST GTS. Apparently it’s been in the UK for 2 weeks but still not at the OPC and they’ve advised they can’t track or prioritise!

    GTS Turismo vs CT4S -- comfort, suspension height, other factors to consider?

    All valid points, the extra ground clearance of the CT has meant I’ve been less concerned around speed bumps, car park inclines and the like, than I was in our original Taycan saloon. Having spoken to our OPC yesterday our GTS is due in to them any day, so likely to be early December for...

    GTS Turismo vs CT4S -- comfort, suspension height, other factors to consider?

    Strange you’ve posted this as I’ve just been thinking the exact same thing. Our GTS ST is due to be delivered later this month. I love our current 4S CT and am starting to think/worry that the GTS might not be the right move. That said, I haven’t driven a GTS, so making a load of assumptions...
