Keeping mine and its registered for the £3500 subsidy. I actually think they will still retain value very well. My gut feeling - Don't want a debate.

Hello John,

I see you cancelled your order...have you now decided to get one? Plenty of cancellations across the UK when they open give them a call - Reading, Sheffield, East London, Leicester all have had cancelled orders on Taycan's (my friends!) as well as Hatfield (my dealer).

You stay safe too! :)

I’ve not made a final decision but am debating. The main issue for me is as a business owner rocking up in a car this expensive at the moment. This is from both an internal and external point of view,

I’ve been debating the same thing pal
I’m still planning on getting mine but as it’s going to keep getting delayed it will allow me to make the final decision once it arrives

im exactly the same. Mine wasn’t due until October, so probably have until early next year to make a decision.

When i placed the order for my car it was a March build for May delivery
at the moment mine it is a June build for August delivery this will obviously slip further I'm estimating that my Taycan Turbo will arrive September/October time
The benefits are that it will be on a newer plate and gives me time to decide if buying it is the correct thing to do

Really making me start to think whether this is a good idea now. Its alot of money when no one knows what the next 6 - 12 months look like.
we know what the next 12 months will look like in broad terms. A lot of people are just in denial.

it’s going to suck. “Worse than 2008” is the optimistic scenario. About 20% of gdp is being vaporized as we speak and unemployment will temporarily hit 20% or more. Rent isn’t getting paid, loans are defaulting, credit availability will be problematic even as interest rates are extremely low. Entire industries are seeing 99% of their business frozen. Restaurants? Airlines ? sports ? Entertainment? The secondary effects will ripple through the economy for years.

there will be a lot of regional disparities in timing and recovery, so ymmv. several European countries are de facto nationalizing payroll liabilities. They’ll likely recover faster. Not sure about other areas. Except America. seriously fucked up. The stimulus package is a joke, much of it is just a slush fund for wall st. Turns out electing a moron has consequence ...

That is no one to talk about Pelosi. Sure, some of the last minute things she pushed for made no sense, but at least the deal eventually got done and the President signed off what the House and Senate approved of.

I have a Turbo S on order which was for a late May or early June delivery. It was on the verge of being spec locked when the lock down happened. I'm currently on the fence about continuing with the order despite getting a charging point put in and selling my year old M5.
