Not sure. I’ve just pinged a message to my SA to see if he knows. It’s a good point. I’ll post on here with the answer. And do you know if Porsche UK are in control of the transportation or would Sytner (for example) arrange the transporter to the dealer?
Silverstone do their own PDI. The SA said they are waiting on a handful of cars. They are as frustrated as anyone it seems!

Why can you no longer have a Cherry Taycan, that is my preferred colour too !
I was told that on Wednesday, the dealer didn’t know why, just couldn’t put order on with it selected. So I can’t make up my mind on what colour to have.

When does your order freeze? Availability may change again in the intervening period as it has for some other components.

It’s end of March build slot so dealer said it will freeze at the end of Jan.

The likelihood of relay attacks is far, far greater if the key is otherwise transmitting from time to time. There’s been a spate of JLR thefts near me and they’ve all been taken with the keys still in the house. Admittedly Evoques and RRSports’s seem a particularly high target for the gangs that want them over Porsches or anything else.

It’s a faraday pouch for me.
JLR has a real issue here and has done so for as long as I can remember.

Shameful and I can't believe the issue can't be solved.

I hope Porsche have improved wireless security. But I’m not taking chances.

I noticed that PTS had been removed from the configurator when I looked at it this week. Maybe they are streaminglining the choices to help with production rates, which would suggest other supply chain issues are genuinely improving if painting is becoming the bottleneck.

Regardless, it will be interesting to see if they drop any other standard colours. I can’t imagine they get many coffee or frozen berry orders. Most manufacturers offer a pitiful choice compared to Porsche atm.

Noticed that the other day as well.

They've hidden PTS right down the configurator, and if you select it, the following message appears:

Option not selectable because of existing blocking dates

So looks like PTS is not available for the foreseeable.

I doubt they will remove any of the standard colours. I expect they will add several more for the facelift.

It's always a good Sunday when you get an app notification that you've moved to Stage 3. Exciting!!

of recent, progress is exactly as per my SA suggested. Dates are being met perfectly
