definitely. I think once our cars start turning-up and the world is starting to get back to normal we should all meet up in the middle of the country somewhere and do just that.
GTS drivers will be at the pub first in the best seats with smug looks on their faces.

Though it might need to be 2023
:D :D :D :D

Re. new build Porsches, given the large existing margins, I would imagine prices increases due to those factors will be marginal (v. v. low %’s). Of greater impact can be FX (GBP vs EUR)
but German manufacturers usually hold off for quite a while because they will have some allowance built in and might have annual hedging contracts in place.

In the UK I’d be more immediately concerned about The Rt Hon Rishi Sunak MP ….. the autumn budget is due Oct. 27th and will, in all probability, increase taxation on motorists eff. Apr’22. ‘Luxury’ (over £40k), or ‘high’ co2 cars to be hit with increased RFL and OTR taxes (above the current approx. £2k) ???

Hope my S is delivered before April !
Macan S arrived May’22.

Given how old some of the members on here seem to be, 2023 may be a bit too late.......

.....and that Mr Sunak doesn't decide that to fix the environment that any increases need to be put in place immediately.
