Did your car come with First Aid Kit, Tyre sealant and compressor? Mine was delivered December 2020 and did not. Dealer has said UK cars do not come with them.
But message on car says to visit dealer......

Sealant and compressor was a £42 option in U.K. not sure about first aid kit. I optioned it as decided the £42 was worth it if I got puncture, and as it’s a company car wasn’t worried about damaged to the tyre the sealant may do as it would get replaced, but I’d be home earlier.

My car came in November with both, however its a company car, maybe the leasing company automatically added them to the config.

Should be in front boot, in the plastic bins, if you have them

I had exactly the same Smart Service notifications as you. I did order the compressor and sealant so that notice should not have been present.

I have never been charged for a first aid kit in any of my cars since 2009 and upon discovering it was missing queried it. I was told that Porsche now charge for this item. I know it is not much, I think £9, but I was somewhat annoyed. I am sorry Porsche but if your customers are spending this sort of money on a car these items should not be extras. They will be charging for the red triangle and cabin air next.

Although you can on the configurator order the compressor and sealant the first aid kit is not an item that is visible to us. It is however a chargeable item on the dealers configurator. In the end the dealer kindly supplied a first aid kit foc as I think they could understand my gripe. The configurator for us remains unchanged!

Mine got delivered in the first week of Jan 2021 and it came with the first aid kit (found it in the trunk), but no sealant and compressor those are indeed options that I didn't notice during the configuration process, am just gonna go ahead and order the set.

Yeah I got those as well when I got home and called past the garage the next day and they were cleared by the mechanics. Didn't even have time to finish my tea.

I see the option of sealant and compressor now.
I have a spare compressor and have bought a can of sealant.
Fist aid kit is apparently legal requirement for EU but not UK.
