I bought my 2007 jaguar x type 2.2 sovereign diesel estate in March 2021 for £2300. I have had 3 years trouble free motoring pulling my caravan. Today my jag is worth £2300. Just saying 😝 Geoff buys cars would be proud 😀
@@seekeroftruthandjust I've been daily driving a 1988 Lincoln Town car for over ten years. I've never broken down once , 3 years isn't anything to brag about. Jags are not reliable cars. Everybody with a brain knows that.
@@bestoflincolnmotorcompany Rather rude, and the Jag he has is basically a ford Mondeo, but you're right jag's aren't reliable and most new cars are crap, even Toyota's now.
So the logic is this: If you are stupid enough to buy a car for £120,000 without reading the small print and doing your research, then you will get rinsed.
There's a saying. Get to the point. Why is Porsche shutting your car down? 23 minutes of yammering on about... who knows what?... before you get to the point.
@@PalleRunquist-d5c, the point I wanted to know was why Porsche was shutting his car down. The actually truth is Porsche isn't shutting his car down, just turning some features off because they are subscription based features. I suspect he could have found this out before buying the car. Reading through the Owner's Manual would probably have revealed these subscription based features. It's a new day and age. Cars have come with subscription based features for at least 20 years now (XM radio for example), and asking about the subscription based features that are in a car would be a prudent move. I will admit that I didn't know how many subscription based features new cars are coming with now but I will be sure to ask about them when we buy our next car.
My car is almost 20 years old, I still change the fuses and staple the roof cloth back on the roof :) My son used to sit in the back in a baby chair now he's learning to drive in it. I used to drive around a lot with my dog George in it for years. The car isn't worth a lot of money but the sentimental value is priceless.
Wait until your Smart Meter for your home power does this same trick. No? Why not! Remember when a top Smart Phone provider updated older phone models to go slower and run the battery down quicker to make you buy a new one? Yes, it happened. Remember when Microsoft brought out Windows Eleven and denied its use on older, BUT PERFECTLY CAPABLE, computers? SMART SHAFTING is on the rise.
The answer is to switch to Linux, microsoft has already started to do that and are selling that which is free elsewhere, edge is a bacterised version of chromium as is google chrome, but microsoft now make edge so it cannot be removed unlike it's previous browsers which had to be removable due to an EU ruling.
Yes! This is happening in the United States too!! Subscription costs monthly for programs. All about money! I will never, ever, buy an electric car. Great video. Thank you!

So it’s cost £2.5K a month just to drive an EV Porsche 😳 Then add tyres, service, insurance and charging fees. Bonkers. I’ll stick with my 13 year old diesel Kia Ceed. Cost £11K and doesn’t miss a beat. Gets me from A-B, low insurance and £35 Road Tax. 👍

Last weekend. Me and my 21 year old Vauxhall combo diesel van travelled from my home in east Yorkshire to London, on to st ives in Cornwall then back to east Yorkshire... Total distance of 980 miles.

I live in Canada, the nearest town with more than 10K population is more than 400 km away in all directions with nothing but unpopulated wilderness along the way. Oh, the average temp is 0 C or less for 8 months of the year. The land and my home are beautiful and I love it, do I want a battery powered car or truck? Nope, not now, not ever. Surprisingly there are Tesla and other chargers around, never in use except for the summertime cidiots passing through. For some reason there seem to be fewer remote combustion vehicles (as John Cadogan from down under calls BEVs) the last couple of years on the highway, even in summer.

@@ifindoubtbailout70 You’re talking about EVs selling like hot cakes? About 23% in the U.K.. A lot is due to the grants and tax incentives such as the workplace charging scheme. The low residuals are a big disincentive though and increase the cost of a PCP. Hybrids are making a bit of a comeback in popularity as they combine the fuel economy of EVs with the ease of fuelling of an ice.
Porsche owe you nothing, and you knew about the subscription package details when you brought the car.. Why did it take 24 minutes of waffle to make your point, confirm the title of the video was false clickbait, and that you were in fact going to voluntarily renew?
Any new car sold after July 7th in the UK will have speed limiters fitted, EV's and petrol and diesel. The roads will become death traps. Stopping a car from overtaking half way through the manoeuvre will mean that it may well hit an on coming car on the other side of the road - INSANITY !
Yeah. I don't understand how that's safe. If I'm passing a car or truck I want to get out of the way of oncoming traffic as fast as possible. I can see future lawsuits coming from this.

Wait 'til your Social Credit Score disqualifies you from recharging your batteries, doubles your electric rates, or restricts you from going out of your neighborhood.

"Communists" 😂😂 Meanwhile you keep paying the Middle East petrochemical industry. Where do you think Qatar got the money to buy the World Cup? Face it, mate, EVs or ICEs, we're paying billionaires with agendas. The anti EV movement is financed by Russian oil producers and the Middle East oil magnates. Where on Earth did you dig up "communists" from? Are you stuck in the 1980's? "Everything I don't like is woke or communist"
Us geeks have been warning about this for 10 years or more. We warned everyone about SaaS(software as a service), CaaS(Car as a service), PaaS(Platfotm as a Service), IaaS(Infrastructure), BaaS(Backend), XaaS (Everything as a Service). It will only get worse unless consumers reject it enmasse.
This video was, as usual, unnecessarily long for the info you related to us. However, I'm comforted that you'll be wasting time at charging stations, and I won't.
Taking an iconic brandy such as Porsche and rendering it soulless without any engine noise is a subtle psychological affront on our identification with the concepts of our own power and energy and how strong or how weak we feel ourselves to be. This is EXTREMELY intentional.
I'm taking away from this not spending £120,000 on a car and then moaning about the experience. First world problems hey mate? And why are your videos sooooo loooonnnggg? Do some editing for crying out loud.
Don't understand this guy, car isn't getting shut down at all only the services he wants to use, Tesla do the same, bmw have done subscription services for years, he must have known it was subscription based when he bought it? My Volvo petrol charges me yearly for map updates does that mean you shouldn't buy petrol? What about the diesel version? don't buy diesel..........No, just don't listen to this guy moaning about how much money his porsche is costing him, nobody forced him to buy it and if he didnt do his research beforehand how does that make him an expert.
All new cars have this feature and the government will eventually have access. Don't pay VOSA? car shuts down.. Buy old cars with no internet connection.
I hope it's game over because I cannot bear hearing about the EV car madness anymore. You've driven a £120,000 car for three years and 55,000 miles and its worth £30,000- what did you expect? It's only cost £600 a week.
Had a similar “ransomware” email from BMW a couple of years ago. They wanted over £300 to continue using similar features. Went to the dealer, thinking it was a scam and they confirmed it was genuine. Sold the car and won’t buy another BMW. Check before you buy.
Bragging over no road tax but lost 90 k in 3 years I bought a ford fusion 6 years ago as a run around for 400 quid with four brand new tyres Still going strong and just passed MOT again No that's saving the planet not all this electric crap When will people realise ITS A CON WAKE UP
We bought a Land Rover Discovery Mk2 twenty years ago and we imported it to Slovenia 12 years ago. It has just had a full service at a local garage and passed it´s MOT with flying colours, mind you it has only cover 84,000 miles to date.
One thing I had wondered is insurance. As the car has plummeted in value has the insurance premium followed it? I think I can guess the answer but just wondered.
You must be kidding! This "tech savvy" guy didn't even bother reading the instructions on how to properly charge his £120k car for two years! Black belt Bumblefoon personified! 😂
@@peterthomason easy thing to do these days. The MOT is computerised with the annual mileage for those older vehicles, so why not levy road tax on road usage? Makes perfect sense.
@@keeboha43 So your sitting in front of a company PC , wondering why your paying monthly data plans for every car on the spreadsheet... That cost would be substantial, and increasing as every thing does in this world..
I cannot fathom who would buy such a vehicle. Strikes me they are silly status symbols to be avoided at all costs, This has been a huge mistake. Can I suggest a Nissan Leak or a Kia Niro EV. Pay cash always.
So basically if you don't pay them a subscription fee they won't tell you where to charge it?, so NOT going to shut you car down!, give me a few minutes and I'll GOOGLE the charging points for you.
My car weighs about the same as a 3 series BMW, most of my fuel is excess solar from my roof. The UK grid is now over 50 percent renewables and increasing. Lastly, due to the efficiency of an electric motor versus horribly inefficient ICE even a coal powered EV is cleaner than ICE. Next year my EV will be cleaner still because the gid will be.
So the next owner gets stung for all the subscription charges, MoTs, no discounted charging, and has no warranty. No wonder Taycan’s are depreciating so badly - it’s as much about Porsche’s rip off business model for second hand cars over 3 years old as it is the horrific EV depreciation.
I know, shocking isn’t it!?!? Imagine my surprise when I bought my first house, and the builder expected me to pay for my own broadband, taxes etc for years to come!!! Bloody WEF, Bill Gates etc etc
This is why I never buy new, always buy long-proven machines made in high volume (which ensures aftermarket support), and would never buy a modern German vehicle. I'm a mechanic who knows better. German vehicles in the US are for aspirationals who buy for the image.
It’s Porsche’s fault, no it’s WEF, no it’s Porsche, no it’s Bill Gates, er what? WEF really need to sort out the awful situation, where good working class folks, with barely enough money to get by, are unable to update the premium features in their £100k+ Porsches. The humanity!!! 😂😂😂
All that. money for a milk float, this is what you should do. Strip out all the electrics, batteries, motors etc Buy an old Porsche and fit the Porsche engine and running gear into it.
TThe car works just fine without Porsche Connect. Nobody is shutting down your car. This is nothing special for the Taycan or EVs in general. It's the same for all Porsche cars and for most Audi's as well.
Can you do a video comparing the current value of your car compared to if you had bought a gasoline Porsche of similar original cost? Compare the demand for the equivalent used cars?

You irk me most because you refuse to even examine the big picture that leads to NO personal mobility, no combustion and no EVs. Every government is dogmatic in this endeavour, led by the World Economic Forum and United Nations Agenda for Sustainable Development 2030. They admit it and, when they achieve their agenda, I'll be back here demanding an apology from you, isolated in your 15 minute ghetto.
Read to the end pls just for fun .
Round, like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever-spinning reel
Like a snowball down a mountain
Or a carnival balloon
Like a carousel that's burning
Running rings around the moon
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple
Whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind.
Like a tunnel that you follow
To a tunnel of it's own
Down a hollow to a cavern
Where the sun has never shone
Like a door that keeps revolving
In a half-forgotten dream
Or the ripples from a pebble
Someone tosses in a stream
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple
Whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind.
Keys that jingle in your pocket
Words that jangle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly
Was it something that you said
Lovers walk along the shore
Andeave their footprints in the sand
Is the sound of distant drumming
Just the fingers of your hand
Pictures hanging in a hallway
And a fragment of this song
Half-remembered names and faces
But to whom do they belong
When you knew that it was over
Were you suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves were turning
To the color of her hair
Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever-spinning reel
As the images unwind
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind.
Pictures hanging in a hallway
And the fragment of this song
Half-remembered names and faces
But to whom do they belong
When you knew that it was over
Were you suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves were turning
To the color of her hair
Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever-spinning reel
As the images unwind
Like the (Macmaster) that you find In the windmills of your mind.

EV value drops faster then Diddy pants at a freak off session
I would never buy an ev
£269 a year seems like a bargain Lee, especially when you've been losing roughly £82 a DAY in depreciation 😯
Just got my 20 year old Mondeo through it's mot. My CD player does not need subscription 😊
My Volvo is 28yrs old and the mechanics say it has no rust and still on the original exhaust and should be good for another 300,000 miles.
I always thought the whole point of electric cars was to hold them ransom.
This should be considered Grand theft Auto.
This is why right to repair is a major thing people need to push for so corpos cant lock people out on account of 3rd party fixes and services being available.
@@AaronJackson-cm3hw As long as there are chumps willing to flush their money down the loo, who can blame Porsche for selling them? 😸
"you will own nothing and be happy" that is a quote from the world economic forum.
Jesus Christ owned nothing and achieved more than you ever will
And as for happiness - when he was aksed by the rich man what he should do he replied 'Go and sell all your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven'
@@bbbf09 Yes but your context is way off. The WEF want you to own nothing so they can own everything - very un-jesus like..
Great video and i now know not to buy a ev or Smart car. Hope the new government won’t put you in jail for this once they release the next batch of prisoners.
Just imagine your in your old diesel car and you don’t have navigation, traffic alerts, voice control, music streaming, location alarm, remote unlock lock blablabla.
Problem solved.
I dont :D all the creature comfort i have is power windows and cruise control at most.
Cant believe people are actually buying evs and stood around waiting for them to charge 😂 you all look lost like sheep waiting for the end to come 😂
@scoobysean555 I mean, how is an EV progress🤣it's backward technology in my mind🤪
@@ifindoubtbailout70 looking around for a friend to talk to just aimlessly walking around like its clarksons farm 😄 I mean if you want that life its 2024 lgbtqst can do what they want 😄😉
@@scoobysean555 EVs are probably the future given the CO2 issue and the fact that fossil fuels will deplete eventually. A long way to go on the electricity supply side though.
@Tailspin80 🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂Yeah right😅🤣😂that's why they're selling like hot cakes then🤣😂🤣😂
@@ifindoubtbailout70 You’re talking about EVs selling like hot cakes? About 23% in the U.K.. A lot is due to the grants and tax incentives such as the workplace charging scheme. The low residuals are a big disincentive though and increase the cost of a PCP. Hybrids are making a bit of a comeback in popularity as they combine the fuel economy of EVs with the ease of fuelling of an ice.
Porsche owe you nothing, and you knew about the subscription package details when you brought the car.. Why did it take 24 minutes of waffle to make your point, confirm the title of the video was false clickbait, and that you were in fact going to voluntarily renew?
Agreed. He should not buy Porsche if he does not like it.
Any new car sold after July 7th in the UK will have speed limiters fitted, EV's and petrol and diesel. The roads will become death traps. Stopping a car from overtaking half way through the manoeuvre will mean that it may well hit an on coming car on the other side of the road - INSANITY !
Yeah. I don't understand how that's safe. If I'm passing a car or truck I want to get out of the way of oncoming traffic as fast as possible. I can see future lawsuits coming from this.
Can be switched off in menu as far as I am aware though
Britt’s have been paying a ransom on their TV’s for eons.
You quoted WEF head Klaus Schwab - quite appropriate. Wait 'til your Social Credit Score disqualifies you from recharging your batteries, doubles your electric rates, or restricts you from going out of your neighborhood.
Anything can be hacked... and will... including cars.
PS I like your graphics on the video. I assume you designed them.
People who buy an EV that suffer this sort of depreciation must be mad. The cars are worthless second hand
It's worth about £35,000 pounds, if that's nothing to you then you can donate it to me.
A lot of people are having serious issues understanding that this Porsche is not a normal depreciation case.
But then most of the public appear to be thick.
Get rid of it quick! Meanwhile I'm hanging on to my Yaris 1.4 diesel until the communists force me to buy an EV.
"Communists" 😂😂
Meanwhile you keep paying the Middle East petrochemical industry. Where do you think Qatar got the money to buy the World Cup?
Face it, mate, EVs or ICEs, we're paying billionaires with agendas.
The anti EV movement is financed by Russian oil producers and the Middle East oil magnates.
Where on Earth did you dig up "communists" from? Are you stuck in the 1980's?
"Everything I don't like is woke or communist"
I rather pay road tax on my Diesel once a year compared to losing 90k lol
Us geeks have been warning about this for 10 years or more. We warned everyone about SaaS(software as a service), CaaS(Car as a service), PaaS(Platfotm as a Service), IaaS(Infrastructure), BaaS(Backend), XaaS (Everything as a Service).
It will only get worse unless consumers reject it enmasse.
This video was, as usual, unnecessarily long for the info you related to us.
However, I'm comforted that you'll be wasting time at charging stations, and I won't.
100% correct
This video is the perfect length! TH-cam push longer videos! Placing more ads! I'm not daft.
@@TheMacMaster just checking to see if you read our comments. You passed. (For now)
LOL Oh I read em! x
Taking an iconic brandy such as Porsche and rendering it soulless without any engine noise is a subtle psychological affront on our identification with the concepts of our own power and energy and how strong or how weak we feel ourselves to be. This is EXTREMELY intentional.
enjoy the bugs
Welcome to the brave new World of EVs. It is a total con.
I'm taking away from this not spending £120,000 on a car and then moaning about the experience. First world problems hey mate?
And why are your videos sooooo loooonnnggg? Do some editing for crying out loud.
Given time, bypassing the manufacturer's restrictions will become a cottage industry
Plenty of cottagers on this channel.
Your videos have more padding than a Wonderbra 😆
It is hard for me to feel much sympathy for you, since you decided to buy that car.
Don't understand this guy, car isn't getting shut down at all only the services he wants to use, Tesla do the same, bmw have done subscription services for years, he must have known it was subscription based when he bought it? My Volvo petrol charges me yearly for map updates does that mean you shouldn't buy petrol? What about the diesel version? don't buy diesel..........No, just don't listen to this guy moaning about how much money his porsche is costing him, nobody forced him to buy it and if he didnt do his research beforehand how does that make him an expert.
You are completely correct!
Free road tax on a car doing more damage to road surfaces because it is heavier than three little ICE cars!
Drop it off outside the dealers, and spray paint your thoughts all over it
Then buy an old skoda with a service history and enjoy life
All new cars have this feature and the government will eventually have access. Don't pay VOSA? car shuts down.. Buy old cars with no internet connection.
Subscriptions to these kind of services are insanity. Never buy a car that requires an internet connection.
If it's worth £33K now, sell it quick and buy a real car with an engine and fuel tank.
We need him, sadly, to keep the EV right to the bitter end IMO. MacMaster and Geoff BC keep me up to date!
When an EV has a range of 1000 miles and charges as fast as filling a gas tank, it's a viable vehicle. Meanwhile, save your $$.
I hope it's game over because I cannot bear hearing about the EV car madness anymore. You've driven a £120,000 car for three years and 55,000 miles and its worth £30,000- what did you expect? It's only cost £600 a week.
It’s complete rubbish. Literally everything he is saying is totally untrue 👍🏻
This is the future! People are falling for it. This is how they will get more people off the road. You will own nothing and be happy, start grinning!
Had a similar “ransomware” email from BMW a couple of years ago. They wanted over £300 to continue using similar features. Went to the dealer, thinking it was a scam and they confirmed it was genuine. Sold the car and won’t buy another BMW. Check before you buy.
If I had a dollar for all the reason why Evs are bad, I still wouldn’t have enough to buy one.
I bet Geoff doesn't have to pay a subscription fee for his heated seats...😂
💚🤙🏼❤
The sheds he drives don't have electric seats.
I bought a 1973 Porsche 914 recently as a project for my grandsonn and I. It looks great, runs great and no subscriptions necessary!
If have the money for a Porsche then you have money for the subscription...
So in other words it was never yours to begin with. That is why a old gas bucket is always the best.
Bragging over no road tax but lost 90 k in 3 years
I bought a ford fusion 6 years ago as a run around for 400 quid with four brand new tyres
Still going strong and just passed MOT again
No that's saving the planet not all this electric crap
When will people realise
ITS A CON WAKE UP
We bought a Land Rover Discovery Mk2 twenty years ago and we imported it to Slovenia 12 years ago. It has just had a full service at a local garage and passed it´s MOT with flying colours, mind you it has only cover 84,000 miles to date.
‘DIVVY’ Fixed the number plate for you.
It is called a CONTRACT... if you accepted the conditions of the contract, you are obly to fulfil them
One thing I had wondered is insurance. As the car has plummeted in value has the insurance premium followed it?
I think I can guess the answer but just wondered.
All the berks who fell for this lousy scam.....
Bottom line is: don't buy an electric car.
If you fall for it, then you deserve it.
Modern petrol and diesel cars also have subscriptions, e.g bmw with their subscription heated seats etc
Surely you knew this when you purchased the vehicle?
You must be kidding!
This "tech savvy" guy didn't even bother reading the instructions on how to properly charge his £120k car for two years!
Black belt Bumblefoon personified!
😂
Just wait until Starmer has you paying by the mile
@@peterthomason easy thing to do these days. The MOT is computerised with the annual mileage for those older vehicles, so why not levy road tax on road usage? Makes perfect sense.
@@peterthomason we all ready do it's in the fuel duty..been like it for decades..but yes that bastard will put it in place notice none of these ts
Wait until they start doing this with your domestic appliances!
120K should provide you with a lifetime subscription! FECKING BALLOCKS!
@@keeboha43 So your sitting in front of a company PC , wondering why your paying monthly data plans for every car on the spreadsheet... That cost would be substantial, and increasing as every thing does in this world..
I cannot fathom who would buy such a vehicle. Strikes me they are silly status symbols to be avoided at all costs, This has been a huge mistake. Can I suggest a Nissan Leak or a Kia Niro EV. Pay cash always.
@@andrewbrooks1392 or just buy a real car ie a ice car which can not be turned off electronically
@@bmwman1981 Old(er) ICE car then. Newer cars with network capability may have remote shutdown, no matter if EV or ICE.
So basically if you don't pay them a subscription fee they won't tell you where to charge it?, so NOT going to shut you car down!, give me a few minutes and I'll GOOGLE the charging points for you.
If you can happily waste 120k on that,and then happily boast that youve lost 90k,then you clearly are not bothered about the money.
He is going to pay...he knew it was a subscription but not the massive depreciation...he is stuck, how fortunate for the pillock!
Charging on burning fossil fuels. Mining earths minerals, increased rubber pollution. Love a green car. We should all be forced to drive a V12
My car weighs about the same as a 3 series BMW, most of my fuel is excess solar from my roof. The UK grid is now over 50 percent renewables and increasing. Lastly, due to the efficiency of an electric motor versus horribly inefficient ICE even a coal powered EV is cleaner than ICE. Next year my EV will be cleaner still because the gid will be.
So the next owner gets stung for all the subscription charges, MoTs, no discounted charging, and has no warranty. No wonder Taycan’s are depreciating so badly - it’s as much about Porsche’s rip off business model for second hand cars over 3 years old as it is the horrific EV depreciation.
I know, shocking isn’t it!?!? Imagine my surprise when I bought my first house, and the builder expected me to pay for my own broadband, taxes etc for years to come!!! Bloody WEF, Bill Gates etc etc
This is why I never buy new, always buy long-proven machines made in high volume (which ensures aftermarket support), and would never buy a modern German vehicle. I'm a mechanic who knows better. German vehicles in the US are for aspirationals who buy for the image.
The WEF do not want the working class to be happy.
It’s Porsche’s fault, no it’s WEF, no it’s Porsche, no it’s Bill Gates, er what? WEF really need to sort out the awful situation, where good working class folks, with barely enough money to get by, are unable to update the premium features in their £100k+ Porsches. The humanity!!! 😂😂😂
This working class man is very happy with EV running costs, buy a second hand ordinary EV, not a new Porsche.
@@bf4blenheim F that, just got me an LC500 working man's supercar
You mentioned you were planning on getting a 911. Can’t understand why you would buy another car from a company that’s basically blackmailing you.
Can't believe how much the Car has depreciated 😬🍺
Just wondering if the fold away chairs are for sitting in a layby eating triangle sandwiches with the crusts cut off.
All that. money for a milk float, this is what you should do. Strip out all the electrics, batteries, motors etc Buy an old Porsche and fit the Porsche engine and running gear into it.
You can go into google maps and it will give you the location and information of all EV charging stations? For free
I've got a 2024 Toyota Rav4 hybrid AWD. Fill up the 55 litre tank with 91 ULP and get 5 litres per 100km, so about 950km. EVs are a scam.
They are able to shut down your car also.
I don’t understand how a company hasn’t came along and made a very basic car/ van at a minimum price
Renault - Dacia.
TThe car works just fine without Porsche Connect. Nobody is shutting down your car. This is nothing special for the Taycan or EVs in general. It's the same for all Porsche cars and for most Audi's as well.
You will own nothing and be unhappy.
Can you do a video comparing the current value of your car compared to if you had bought a gasoline Porsche of similar original cost? Compare the demand for the equivalent used cars?
