Malacca Highway arriving at Sheerness around now

[psglas]

City of Rotterdam is back at Emden loading up for Grimsby by the looks of it! Fingers crossed for anyone else waiting

It went there via Newcastle (From Grimsby). Must have dropped off all the Scottish Taycan's on the detour

Certainly was, It may have been for a service/repair as Tyne is one of the few docks that can do a wet repair

Porsche don’t use the port but Audi/VW do so it could have dropped my Etron off

LOL..... What we do know is that there is one lucky Red owner there !! ;-)

And we hope it is our Carmine Red Turbo S coming to the US, not the UK.
Our Porsche guy says it is in Emden.

Good afternoon shipmates, welcome to a new week of..... waiting !

Malacca Highway arrived back at Emden this morning. Fingers crossed for anyone waiting for their Taycan

Good news - thought you were picking it up in September now?

Im prob going to lease it as it’s over £11k cheaper
So I don’t care what registration I get

That's why I was wondering why you were delaying it to September.

My one is on it's way. Confirmed left the factory on Friday. Dealer non comital at this stage on delivery to me, but we kind of expect that to around the 15th July

I told you guys earlier in the thread to expect all your cars in July

Dealers had zero incentive to deliver cars in June!

But the Dealers also don’t have any control of when the cars arrive in the UK, they haven’t been sat on them

BMW I’m picking up tomorrow they were desperate to get that out by the bend of June as that’s the end of Q2 as most manufacturers work on quarters

Exactly what I said above. This quarter was "written off" for most dealer groups (Porsche) and no bonus was payable for this quarter hence why cars were delayed to July onwards. Porsche themselves were probably not prioritising their deliveries for this reason.

My car is actually arriving at the dealership on the original date so it’s certainly not the case for mine, as I I’ve said previously I’ve been told by Porsche and Audi while speaking to them about my cars that VW are pulling rank and prioritizing their own models on the boats and they are having to share what space is left
as its them that own some of the boats and operate some others

ill decide next week what I’m going regards mine (just awaiting the revised figures from my dealership)
im picking up my BMW X5 45e tomorrow so that will keep me entertained for a few days while I’m deciding

The X54e is is a lovely drive too. I had one for a weekend thanks to Sytner. A word apart from the previous gen car...enjoy
