Re: Macan stolen!

Would be interesting to see figures per models made or available to steal if you like. Not surprised to see Fords topping the list as there are so many of them. We could be losing 20% of Macans to thieves but it wouldn’t register on these lists because there are so few out there relatively… 🤔 The F...

Re: Macan stolen!

The ability to steal a vehicle using methods such as OBD Port Intrusion and Relay Attack, has exponentially increased the vehicle theft numbers. The police do not prioritise this type of crime as, in most forces, they do not have the resources to deal with it or the skill that they once had in ident...

Re: First service costs

By way of comparison, my wife's Ford Puma has just been serviced at a cost of £335 which I was flabbergasted at.
This included an oil change and new spark plugs.
No free coffee, cakes, luxury waiting area, courtesy car etc.!!

Re: Taycan £10K Deposit Contribution

Good to read another perspective but personally not convinced. +1. I think most Taycans that I’ve seen out on the road look fabulous, and if I was forced to have an EV, I’d probably have a Taycan, possibly going for the Mission E look. 8-) However, until charging infrastructure improves massively, ...

That could be the case when I see one, but having that brief experience with the Taycan Turbo, I couldn't compare with another EV Porsche.

Re: Taycan £10K Deposit Contribution

IMG_8807.jpeg We now have a Macan for the longer motorway journeys and a Taycan Turbo as my daily driver which replaces the Zoe and can charge at home on Octopus tariffs. I was with Octopus until I had the EV charger installed. I moved to OVO as they have the "Charge Anytime" product, whi...

Re: Taycan £10K Deposit Contribution

I’ve been driving an EV (Polestar) for the past 2 weeks. My first ever experience of an EV was a brief loaner from Porsche, the Taycan Turbo, an incredible car with acceleration like I’ve never experienced before, it was unbelievable. The Polestar I’m currently in, it’s temporary for the next few mo...

Re: 2017 Macan S Keyless entry, can it be switched off?

Personally, I’d leave the keyless on.
If they want to steal it and can’t access by relay theft, next option is to enter the home, and I would not want that.

Taycan £10K Deposit Contribution

Did anyone else get the email yesterday with this offer?

I'm not sure if this is common, but I don't ever remember such a generous offer on an ICE Porsche.
