When it’s not at the dealer for some issues.
I hope that doesn’t happen. In almost 50 years of car ownership I have never had a fault that stopped a car. I have had one hydraulic ram fault on the folding hood mechanism of a 500SL, sorted at a routine service, and a couple of recalls.

I couldn’t help noticing the thread title. I test drove a Taycan on 13th July 2021 and put down a deposit the same day. I think the CT was so popular at the time that waits were even longer than the sedan. Mine was delivered in January and it is great. Not trying to rub salt in here, but you are so nearly there by the sound of things. I hope you get it soon and enjoy it as much as you had hoped. As you say it is heavy, but I like the EV driving dynamics so much, although compared to your car history mine will be lousy!

Important question is, after delivery, where will you be doing the shakedown runs? :p

Congratulations @f1eng - looking forward to the glamour shots and review.

A lot of review YouTube videos are done on the roads where I live. I often see the photographers set up there. There was a GT4 RS being officially photographed for Porsche cornering a couple of days ago where I walk my dog.

Depending when it arrives its first trip may be to Anglesey though.

You will need to plan your charging a bit.

We go quite often and Anglesey seems pretty void of them.

It is our “standard” holiday location.
Our eldest daughter went to the school of ocean sciences in Menai Bridge to do her PhD and liked it so much she never came back so now married with 3 boys living near Beaumaris.
The charge point there has had a fully charged Zoe on it every time I’ve looked though!
It will be hours on the 13amp socket at her house, probably.
