Taken the old fashioned way I'm afraid - we'd been away a couple of days & the toe-rags bust in the back through the patio doors and stole both sets of keys. Bad for us, but hopefully reassuring for anyone with the keyless system.
Local police were surprised - apparently this was the first Porsche stolen in the county this year. Normally the scum go for Rangeys, BMWs, Audis & VWs. They reckon it was taken to order, especially since they must have brought false plates as it didn't trigger any ANPR.
Have to keep any eye out for it on ebay/autotrader given how rare the model is it will turn up quite quickly I should think.
The Rozzers reckon it'll be well on its way to Russia / E.Europe by now, but I have been keeping an eye on the classifieds just in case
I am collecting my new Gen 2 GTS next week as it landed at the dealer yesterday. I mentioned putting an order in for Gen3 GTS for next year and was told 29 in the queue and that they will not get 29 cars next year so 2023 more likely if ordered now.

Pending some kind of financial disaster it looks like GTS's will be selling over list next year then!!

I’m reliably informed that used prices will continue to climb next year - so yep agree with you
I ordered a GTS on the 9th September with an estimated delivery of Q3 2022. I was then informed last Friday that following a Porsche update delivery would be 2023 !...Another twist today as my OPC sales manager has now advised my order was processed before the delay announcement by Porsche and I should expect a car late Q2 next year.
Since I was told of the delay, I've been convincing myself (including my kids) to order a Taycan RWD with pan roof, wheel upgrade and a few small options. Delivery is Q2 2022 and also thinking future resale, fuel savings and latest technology and all that !!!!
Now I'm very undecided and will do back to back test drives early next month to help make a decision

Sorry, but is that "as well as" or "instead of"? The Taycan doesn't strike me as a "family car"

When did you order it? I’m waiting for my Gen 2 GTS which I orders in Feb.
Taycan would be instead of the Macan. From the family aspect, my twins are coming up for 18 and driving so they'd only occasionally be travelling with us. Understandably they like to have a say and are impressed with the tech in the Taycan.
