Surprised to see already 30 Taycan’s available on Porsche Pre-Owned and 61 advertised on Autotrader. Maybe were not yet ready to rush to own one long term?

OPC's listing demo's and the non-OPC dealer with cars on Autotrader look the outfits that buy cars to sell on to people not prepared to wait for an OPC order to arrive; many with very low mileage less than a 1000.

Yep, the 61 includes the 30 for sale at OPCs. Prices from £91,900 to £174,995 :shock:

Not so much dissatisfied customers, as those looking to flip for an easy profit :roll:

I like the idea of the Taycan, and indeed had a Letter of Interest lodged at Tewkesbury from back when it was still called the Mission E, but the infrastructure will need to be WAY better here in the UK before I take the leap...

Do letters of intent work nowadays, or are OPC's only interested in cool hard cash deposits?

^^^ I think the ‘VIP List’ comes first, with the launch of any desirable new model, including GT3s and GT4s etc...

To be fair, I did get a phone call to follow up on my lodged letter of interest...

If your a Harry’s Garage fan here’s his view on the Taycan and latest charge developments. IMHO still takes far too long to charge away from home, what are the queues going to be like once more EV’s on the road, and that drive sound 🙁. Mamba green 🤢 c’mon Harry you cannot be serious 😉

Certainly will be a long time before Electric substitutes my ICE Macan and F-Type.
