£55k Taycan - Private Purchase

[3xAAA]

I’m looking to buy a second-hand Taycan with a budget of around £55k, ideally a Cross Turismo 4S with a few well-chosen options.

I’ve just missed out on this one at £52k:

I’ve driven a couple of Taycans and they seem to fit my needs, but I’m wondering if there are any years or models I should avoid. I know some manufacturers temporarily reduced specifications during the COVID supply issues, and I’m not sure if Porsche was one of them.

Also my biggest concern is battery longevity, as I tend to keep my cars for a while. Am I likely to be looking at a £40k battery replacement in five years? Or, if I get bored and sell it in two years with another 15,000 miles on the clock, could I be facing £25k in depreciation?

big change was 2024 with the facelift model, bigger battery etc.
