Porsche Taycan RWD, 1969 911t

Picked up my RWD from Nottingham Porsche today and drove it the 150 or so miles back home to Sunderland. I think I grinned the whole way back.

What an amazing car. Battery performed better than estimated. 230 miles fully charged (PB+) at the dealership with 118 miles left when I got home. Happy with that and it will get better.

Plenty of people have said already the RWD is plenty quick for the road. I agree. Off the mark its not blistering but rolling then accelerate its awesome for our roads.

Love the crayon colour. It's so nice in natural light. I opted for black interior which is lovely. The panoramic roof makes the cabin nice and bright.

Overall first impressions I'm super happy. The app is glitchy I find. Its logged me out at the moment. But apart from that it's ace.

A few pics.

From a Sand Dancer to a Mackem got to say you've two great looking cars.

I am picking up my RWD ST in Dec (if Porsche Cambridge play nicely :) ) then I'll be taking it up to sunny Shields for a while before leathering it back down South.

If you fancy a run out over the festive period keep me in mind.

PS - judging by the 911 photo is that Ashbrooke area by any chance?

Haha I am indeed mate. Good detective work. Leafy Ashbrooke not far from the cricket club. Thanks. The 911 is a longer term project. Currently rebuilding the engine in my not so spare time. Great fun.

100% definitely be up for a blast out. I did wonder if you were from Sheilds when I saw your forum name 😂 . Give me a shout when you've got your car. You'll love it :like:
