    Charger

    Good one! Look out for me in my silver CT4S. I asked Simpson to recommend a local installer and they suggested Energize Elextrical - they were brilliant and I can’t fault them. They were professional, knowledgable about the product and great to deal with. So much so, I am considering using...

    Charger

    My experience has been positive so far. It looks great and appears to pretty robust. I got the tethered mid-range version. It comes with an app which you can schedule charging - which I haven’t used, but does look fairly intuitive. I tend to just plug it in and override. It has worked every...

    Taycan Owners and Very Narrow Lanes

    I had a similar dilemma. Wanted a 911, but with 2 kids the Taycan just made more sense - particularly given the UK company car incentives. I took the plunge and my dolomite CT4S arrived in December. It is a big car, but after a week or two the size of it became normal and lanes and narrow city...

    Sport Sound Owners - Do You Use It Most of the Time?

    I only got my car on the 31st December, so it is still something of a novelty - but I really like the sport sound as it adds something to the driving experience for me and tend to use it more often than not.

    DOLOMITE SILVER Taycan Club

    Finally picked up the car today and couldn’t be happier. Delighted with the Dolomite colour.

    UK order status and delays?

    My contact at Porsche Edinburgh has emailed yesterday to say that my car is now on the boat to Grimsby. From the experience of the thread - and factoring in Christmas and New Year as well as the dealers likely desire to include the car in this quarter’s sales figures, when should I realistically...

    Taycan 4S Cross Turismo FOR SALE

    Not sure if it is the right place to post it or not - but can’t do any harm. The car seems well priced and is a nice spec, so hopefully will sell easily for you. It might be worth changing your profile to showing that you are in the UK - for some reason it shows a USA flag - and you are...

    How did your friends react to the car ... ?

    I have gone back and forward in my head on this for a while. I currently drive a 17 year old BMW E46 convertible (which I love) but have always wanted a Porsche.. I work hard and my business, which I created myself and built up over many years, is doing well. I can afford a Porsche and...

    Charger

    The elegant answer is this: https://simpson-partners.com/home-ev-charger/#our-home-ev-chargers Mine is being installed next week. They are the same people that designed the first Andersen one and their mid-level offering allows solar integration.

    UK order status and delays?

    Just been informed that my car is now in production. Slightly annoyingly the Myporsche app isn’t working for me, so no chance of any production snaps, but I am hopeful of now receiving it before Christmas which would be great.

    BOSE Delays

    Apologies - I had thought they were the same at first glance. I see the difference now!

    BOSE Delays

    I like the second set better. They would be better still at a lower price point...

    Taycan CT 4S 2023 Build Help

    I would also consider gloss black window surrounds - it is just a personal thing, but I think it suits the car much better than the chrome.

    UK Road Tax on EVs coming?

    It will certainly be interesting to see the details of the VED charges once they are announced. In terms of the BIK increases - I think these were inevitable and I don't consider them to be too bad.

    VIN/FIN just appeared - how long to start production?

    You are lucky - after showing my locked-in order as stage 3 and an approximate avatar of my car for the last month or so, the UK app now just tells me that I have not yet added a vehicle. My salesman tells me that the UK app is playing up somewhat at the moment. According to him, my build...

    BMW i7

    I have no doubt it is a technological tour de force, but why have they made the outside so offensively unattractive? 7 series of old used to be well proportioned and purposeful looking cars which people aspired to owning. The Bangle era design saw BMW veer away from this winning formula and the...

    Offered a cancelled build slot

    On this point - my company tax year runs from 1st October to 30th September. I am assuming that I will have to pay 25% CT on all of my 22/23 profit and on that basis, presumably as long as the car is bought within that financial year (even if that is Deecmber 22), then it will qualify for the...

    Offered a cancelled build slot

    Sorry - double post....... In answer to your initial question - the offer of a cancelled build slot seems brilliant. Whilst car sales might be about to slow down due to economic factors, the Taycan depreciation curve is likely to be shallower than most and it is a brilliant car. Also, the...

    Offered a cancelled build slot

    My car is due to arrive around the end of this year and will be bought outright by my company. Our company financial year runs until the end of September, so it is my understanding that in the UK we will qualify for the CT saving at the 25% rate. The downside to that is that the rest of the...
