    Anybody Recently Purchased The Porsche Roofbars?

    I’m still using mine. They replaced the bars (and I guess I’m more familiar with them) so although they have the same attachment are no longer marking the rails. I use the roofbox all winter and don’t notice much noise but am perhaps not very sensitive to it?

    Is 14000 miles decent tyre life ? - should I change brand ?

    I’ve just changed both Pirelli Cinturato P7 Winters and Summers after circa 28k miles. For Winters the tyre shop has put on something from Hankook. Drove them on the snow last weekend and grip seemed good. Hankook Winter i*cept evo

    I’ve got the Pirellis and they work well on snow. It’s a lot of fun drifting them round the mountain hairpins 😎

    Tesla Price Drop

    If you don’t have other competing purchases for the cash then that’s fine. But Tesla is offering better performance, better autonomy, better tech, better charging infrastructure for a much lower price now. I fully agree the Taycan is a much better looking car but wouldn’t be willing to pay the...

    Tesla Price Drop

    I bought into the Porsche driving experience and love my Taycan CT 4 but I also enjoyed my Model X and the pricing now means a Tesla is a no brainer unless you are a sucker for Porsche marketing or have money to burn

    Tesla Price Drop

    A mate is struggling to sell his 2nd hand Taycan here. When a Plaid costs the same as a Taycan 4 I imagine that problem is going to get worse… I came from a Tesla Model X and love my Taycan but wouldn’t buy a new one with this pricing discrepancy

    New Porsche batteries coming with 800 mile range

    I would love an 800km range ev but it would only make a difference for the occasional road trip we do, and then only a small one, so not sure I’d be willing to pay much of a premium for it?

    Custom Cross Turismo Rear Bike Rack Group Buy

    my daughters bike is probably 24” and the tires aren’t big enough for the 1up tire holders. I have to put some wooden blocks underneath the tyres to lift them up. Don’t think it would work for 16”

    Battery Range after 2 years / 40 000 km’s

    It really depends how fast you drive. I think I was looking at around 300km’s out of a fully charged battery doing 130kmh on the Autostrada. If you go faster than this with bikes and box on the car the range will plummet. On the positive side the Ionity at Cavaglia gave me 250KW charging speed...

    Touching up scratches on paintwork?

    Hello all, any tips / products for polishing out surface scratches? Porsche offered me this ⬇️ Costs a fortune to get it done professionally in Switzerland and I’ll surely get some more so just want to touch them up for now. Tks

    Custom Cross Turismo Rear Bike Rack Group Buy

    Willy’s bike rack probably gets more complements than the car from my bike mates. Managed to rig up the lights using the lights and euro adapter recommended on here and some duct tape but can’t see anything to attach the rear plate too. Currently hanging it off the bike. Anyone found a solution...

    Battery Range after 2 years / 40 000 km’s

    Average speed is a red herring. Driving most of the way at 120 with a couple of traffic jams brings the average right down but little impact on consumption. For example yesterday on average 20kmh faster due to less traffic but similar consumption
