My dealer's marketing department just invited me to the Porsche Festive Experience. It actually sounds quite good: Luxury hotel Breakfast, brunch and afternoon tea; and: A driving experience for you and a guest will last approximately one hour. You will be allocated one of our Porsche cars to...

Nothing. At least from Porsche Leicester with nothing known for 2023. Yet. They get one dump of allocations for the whole year in Q1. If I am not on that list then looks like I am throwing in the towel and getting myself a convertible F-Type, where I will make Jaguar cool again.

Did my PEC at Silverstone last week in a GTS ST. Better described as an aggressive yet controlled test drive. For those interested, or want to know what to expect, the half-day below is summarised. It also explains why I have decided against Carmine Red, where the PEC is also a great way to see...

Spoke to my rep, a Sytner dealer. They confirmed that regardless of when you dropped the deposit, the price you pay is the price at point of allocation. Since so few of us have allocations, especially for GTS/ST models, then anyone ordering via a Sytner dealer - like me - are paying the price...

Porsche Leicester have just informed me they are "still awaiting allocations" and that I'm 10th on the list. If we assume two allocations a month from... September (guess), then my build should start Jan 2023, with delivery around March/April... Which was in line with what the dealer prediction...

Nothing. Sorry for the anti-climax. But I appreciate they checked in with me. Email: "... still awaiting allocations for Taycans to come through. Hopefully we start to get more influx towards the back end of the year so we can start fulfilling orders. Of course as soon as I know more I will...

Finally booked a GTS ST for the PEC on the morning of 24 August. If anyone is a regular and soon to book their PEC, try and get the same day - be great to meet! Availability for this model is very limited. For those looking to book through June and July, be aware of the following: Loop 2 of...

Enjoy:

Just a heads up that the Taycan's on PEC day are reserved only for customers. At least here in the UK. While the invite email stipulates you can bring a guest for an 'experience' on the day - for £472 - it can only be in one of the following vehicles: 911 Carrera PDK (992) 911 Carrera S PDK...

Put down a deposit on my GTS ST middle of Feb. Just received the PEC invite. Not sure if that means things are moving along or if it's just a formality? Was told 12-15 months until delivery. For those who have their Taycan's, does the PEC invite give some indication of how soon to expect your...

Visited my dealer today for a test drive in this absolute stunner - and while I was there photographed some of the lighter leather samples where the configurator colours always seem a bit off. Cherry metallic is stunning and the RS Spyder wheels on the GTS make the car look even more incredible...

Thought this might be of use for those curious what the additional 65 Taycan PTS colours look like. It's hidden on Porsche's website: https://media.porsche.com/paint-to-sample/taycan Someone out there, please be brave enough to go Acid Green ?

Taycan dimensions are: Length: 4.96m Width: 1.97m To avoid risk of sidewalling the car, what would the more experienced garage/car owners of this group recommend as a minimum sized garage + including a wall charging point? I've never had to park a car in a tight walled space before, so I'm...

Trying to decide interior for the GTS that has a Carmine Red exterior. I have ruled out the Racetex despite seeing/sitting in a Taycan GTS that had it. It is nice, but I just feel it is aimed too much at track racing, something I won't be doing. Also concerned about maintenance demands to keep...
