So I’m currently sat in a car park in Seaham, County Durham UK having dropped my son at cricket training. On the way here every time I put my foot down the car backed off and the snail symbol appeared. It’s driving and accelerating modestly but it won’t accelerate harder. I’ll call the garage in...

Yesterday I drove from home In Sunderland to Sheffield and back for a team meeting. I had planned to do a quick stop on the way back at the Gridserve fast chargers at Wetherby services on the A1M. Enough to get me home then charge full as I usually do. When I left Sheffield I put home into my...

So my USB sockets in my armrest have packed up so I rang to book the car in hoping it's just a fuse and they've said they'll need it for 2 days to do a recall. I lease my RWD through my company so have full maintenance. Wonder what the recall is? When I get the dealership contact me to confirm...

Hi. Anyone else having issues with My Porsche app kicking you out? I'm having to repeatedly keep logging back in. Never happened to me before yesterday.

We were at dinner with friends last night at the Cholmondeley Arms pub not far from Malpas. Spotted a very nice white Taycan with Chrono in the car park. This pub has a car club that if you take a photo of your car outside and email it to them you get a free mug and a free pint. Lovely food...

First supercharger (Edit: fast charger) experience was a disaster. Stopped at Trafford Centre Manchester on our way to Wales. Used the Evyve 75kw charger. Would not work. Authorised my card on the app and still wouldn't work. Would not work pay and go. Spoke to a useless tech support guy on the...

Being an air-cooled Porsche and VW man I've acquired some cool retro luggage over the years. I remembered I some old American 1960s carry on cases in the loft that I thought would fit in the frunk of the Taycan. So I dug them out, dusted them off and hey presto they fit! They are in immaculate...

We drove down to Leeds yesterday with the kids to watch The Hundred cricket at Headingley. I didn't have to charge it as its only a hundred miles back home. But I thought I'd give it a go seen as we were staying overnight. We stopped at the Marriot off Swinegate so parked in Trinity car park...

We are off to Wales next week and looking at Zap Map from the NE there only seems to be 50kw chargers on my route. Its only 210 miles door to door so I could make it without charging but we'll want to stop with our mardy teenagers for lunch. Just wondered how long does a 50kw charger take in...

Appreciate comfort access/keyless entry keys being stored in a Faraday box in your home is a good idea but I don't have comfort access. Is it still a good idea to have keys for keyless start in a Faraday box? Thieves can't boost that signal can they? Cheers. Wayne

Hi. I got my Porsche charging card through the post today. Covering letter talks about 190,000 locations across Europe in Partner with Ionity. Is there a list or site that shows the suppliers the card works with? Obviously its not all Ionity and Porsche dealerships. I've looked on My Porsche app...

Is Zap Map Premium worth it in the UK? I can't actually see what it gives you the free version, Porsche nav and Google don't. Its on Andriod play but requires a Premium subscription to work in the car. Cheers Wayne.

Picked up my RWD from Nottingham Porsche today and drove it the 150 or so miles back home to Sunderland. I think I grinned the whole way back. What an amazing car. Battery performed better than estimated. 230 miles fully charged (PB+) at the dealership with 118 miles left when I got home...

My car is allegedly due to Porsche Nottingham on the 22nd of July (I'm not holding my breath). Just wondered in the UK what's people experience of timescales once it's at the dealer to you then being invited to collect it? Cheers. Wayne.

UK car show 5th Gear put this on YouTube. Its Jason Plato presenter and Touring Car champion racing 1 hot lap in a Taycan CTS and then a 911. Interesting and shows Porsche have built their EV to go round corners as well as their 911! Fast! Hopefully this link works?

Hi all. My names Wayne. I've ordered a Crayon Grey 93kw RWD Taycan last week. Will be a while before it arrives but I thought I'd register and say hi. Lots of very useful threads on here. I'll try to keep the stupid questions to a minimum! Its my first EV. I've had a few hybrids now (BMW...
