    Satin RS wheel paint

    Just christened a wheel rim getting out of the way of an emergency vehicle. Gutted, managed 8 months without a scratch which is 8 months longer than normal for me. Anyone (UK) found a good paint match for the satin black paint on the RS wheels? Looks like an easy DIY fix.

    Automation to check if car is locked

    Anyone know if there is a way to detect the status of door locking automatically via some automation on my phone? I left my car unlocked last night and someone ransacked the storage bin, nothing lost or damaged. Siri is able to change the colour of ambient lights and a few other things but...

    Anyone going to Porsche festival Brand Hatch next week?

    Porsche festival Sunday 3rd Sept at Brands Hatch - Anyone going? I have my tickets, hope to park on the infield. Everything Porsche has a Porsche tax, I was there a few weeks ago for the Mini festival and the tickets were cheaper 😀

    The 18 way seats are killing me!

    I've just done my first long trip in my GTS, about 4 hours, and the seats are really uncomfortable. I had the same issue with a Golf which had premium sports seats. I've tried lots of positions and managed to get my lower back okayish but the side bolsters are too narrow for my fat arse and are...

    Schoolboy error

    I’ve just updated a UPS delivery to authorise them to Leave Package on Porch. Now realise that’s not a good idea 🤣

    Dog transport setup

    My beautiful GTS ST arrived yesterday, this morning I have dog proofed it, I think I’ve come up with a flexible solution to occasionally having to travel with my Car cover Spaniel. I bought a Dog Bag which, with a bit of a wrestle, folds up small enough to go in the drunk or possibly in the...

    Order missing from My Porsche app

    My order disappeared from the My Porsche app 2 days ago, although it's still there on the web version. It looks like it is trying to load but never gets there. Same issue on Apple and Android. This happened roughly the same time I got the invoice but could be a coincidence. Anyone else have this?

    Trackers

    With the imminent arrival of my car I'm wondering if it's worth having a tracker. I don't need it for insurance purposes. Given the issues reported with the Porsche/Vodafone system I'm not keen on getting the factory unit. Any recommendations? Is it likely to be an issue having a tracker...

    AC charging ports

    UK specific: The manual says that AC charging is on the driver's side, but could also be on the passenger side and is country specific. Can you charge using a 32a AC charger on the passenger side for a UK car? Tia

    Got an allocation! Please check my build :)

    Hello lovely people, I have been offered a March slot for my ST GTS, I wasn't expecting it until after July, happy days, I'd rather have one now than be in the grey area of MY23 or wait for the facelift. I think I've done the spec to death over the last 10 months but attach it here if you would...

    Silverstone PEC on Monday - what to ask for?

    I have my complimentary PEC visit on Monday and TBH not sure what to ask for, as I understand it the instructor will ask what kind of experience you want. My normal driving is in London <20mph with the occasional blast to the West Country and less often across Europe to Croatia. I'm not...

    Are PTS cars worth more?

    I've been given the green light by SWMBO to go PTS and change my GTS order to Dark Olive because it's less flashy 🙂 Curious if a PTS Porsche would resell at a better price due to its rarity and help justify the cost?

    How much?!

    I've been looking for an ST GTS on the Porsche website for a while and today an ex demo has come up, £149,000. It's pretty much the same spec I've ordered which is £25-30k less. That is an impressive markup! Ad...

    Porsche Driving Experience

    Just had an invitation for the driving experience, is this any indication that my order might be making progress? Not really expecting the car until end of next year, placed an order for a GTS two months ago.

    Loading Edge Protection (boot edge)

    I have a ST GTS on order, could some kind person let me know what the standard boot edge looks like? All of the cars I've seen in showrooms have a metal panel, is this standard or do I need to spec the full door sill set to get "Loading edge protection in stainless steel". We have a dog so...

    GTS ground clearance

    I have placed an order for a Sport Tourismo GTS, as far as I can tell it has the same ground clearance as the saloon/sedan, am I correct? I'm borrowing a CT this week to see if I can get it on my driveway but I'm aware that these have a different ride height. If I can reverse up the drive with...
