Hi All. I've been reading on here since pre-ordering a Taycan in the UK (January). Thought I'd post my spec and thoughts and ask what people thought.

I've gone for a Turbo over a 4S because I'd been told lead time was less for a Turbo and once I'd specified a GTS it got very close to Turbo pricing. I drove the Turbo and it was absolutely brilliant.
Also worth noting this will be used by me as my own car alongside an XC90 T8 recharge we have for a few more years. It will have reasonable amount of family duties to do with it and therefore I've got the ST.
Thanks in advance.

- I've added the 400v/150kw charging in case I'm on a road trip in Europe and need a 400v option. I'm hoping to go on some road trips.
- Not specified 22kw as I've 1 phase at home and it appears there are a lot of glitches with this too.
- Wheels I'm not a fan of many of the Taycan options. I don't mind the Turbo Aero wheels, but these look best imo. The only reservation I have is how much range I will lose? It seems it's relatively minimal?
- I went for Gentian as I love the colour and looked at Carmine Red, but basically not enough to spend the money on, especially over the wheels
- Black interior as I know the kids will be mucking in there, no matter how much I tell them not to! Hence the roof and blue accents to add light and colour
Thanks in advance.
