Re: Finally found the right 911 for me

Lovely car. A lot of purists will argue the normally aspirated 991.1 is the one to own but I disagree. The turbo charged models are brilliant in my opinion (yes I am biased) and the PCM 4.0 & carplay are worth it IMO too. Plus, should you ever feel you need a bit more poke, then for around £720 ...

Re: Electric Christmas

Thanks guys. Really enjoying the experience so far. You may also be pleased to know the homelink worked first time too (those that know me know!). Saw my first Taycan on the road going up the local High St just now. Struck me a being a big, big car; it looked as long as a Panamera but wider! Enjoy ...

Re: Electric Christmas

Thanks guys. Really enjoying the experience so far. Bizarre plugging it in on a night and setting it to be ready first thing in the morning. Handles well for a big weight and the interior is absolutely gorgeous. I’ve had some nice comments regarding the cars looks too, which is flattering. You may a...

Electric Christmas

After a few twists and turns I finally picked up my Taycan Turbo S on Tuesday afternoon. Haven’t done a lot of driving in her yet but my initial impressions are simply wow! Happy Christmas one and all and here’s to a better 2021. 6B7FDDA2-4C9C-4148-9D42-6B2D24B84DD9.jpeg D572BC38-FE82-46C7-A48D-346A...

Re: Taycan availability!

I get my turbo S in a few weeks. It rolls off the production line on Friday. Managed to swerve the potential 10% no deal Brexit tariff increase if it does end up coming early January. Long story!!
Still have my Litchfield tuned 911 to keep my ICE fix satisfied.

Re: New Taycan

I’m part of these statistics :) I finally locked my order in. I now have a build slot in November and was told to expect a December collection. I actually changed my order from a Turbo S to a Turbo only to be offered an earlier Turbo S slot so swapped back. Going to run it as a company vehicle and t...

Re: Taycan

My SA happened to mention if you were going down the route of a pcp to purchase then spec the 2+1 rear seat option as the gfmv would be higher. Interesting I thought.

963657FA-49BF-47C0-865E-0763E4D44F69.jpeg I test drove an S yesterday (why do I keep wanting to type 4S?). Anyway, loved the look of the car. I agree photos don’t seem to do it justice. Far more impressive in the flesh. Interior is next level & felt every bit a premium motor. Power delivery was...
