Still on the 8th, next Saturday to collect.

They already do as Highlands have a slightly different interface than pre-highland. Don't know if they are doing this on Model Y also but this covers the ability to quickly turn on and off speed warning chimes.

Yeah but you’ve already brought your car, Tesla doesn’t have to retro fit so to speak this functionality to your car. I mean they can as we know and you’ll get the safety improvements but I suspect any enforced automatic bongs and chimes they won’t push to old cars.

It is annoying when UK phone networks drop calls just before our wives are about to say “Ah thanks for filling me in on all of that. You’re the best hubbie ever, love you so much.” Always seem to get cut off before that bit comes 😂

Requirement for new cars, not old cars is it not? This is part why Highland cars have or had a speed chime that automatically turns on every time you start the car. Though in the UK they aren’t doing this as I think legally it’s not required here since we left the EU in the same way. My Lotus...

I did wonder about Climate and Nav. I saw one source mention Tesla added it for new cars that ship these will be default icons down the bottom. I guess maybe they get some people that don't realise or maybe just don't like swiping down another app so they give an icon for it. Similar I guess...

OK fair enough. I imagine you’ll need a long wheel base 7 series / S class kind of length car then for people to be comfortable behind you. Guess my point was more the Model 3 is similar lengths to BMW 5 series from a while ago. It’s about as big as you want to go in this country and still be...

That's really impressive, thanks for sharing.

This would be lovely. So you have something covering up the map then show a smaller map on the right by shrinking the car visualisations. Once the app is closed it moves back to the normal place.

I never said it was in the same price range. My point was you want more features you have to have a bigger car. I fully expect if I could get a Model Y with air suspension, plaid power train, bigger battery, rear wheel steering, massage seats, etc. it would cost more. It's just not an option so...

Yes and no. I’ve had a M5 in the past and a lovely car. But say you want air suspension and even more luxury, had to move to an M760Li to get it. Also faster than the M5 at the time. I’d like a Model 3 and Y with Tesla’s air suspension, Plaid drivetrain and 100kWh battery. I think they could...

Not a lot. It’ll come, just done in waves.

£6k well spent if you ask me ;)

I've had a lot a good few big cars, over 5 metres in length but to say a 3 is cramped is maybe a bit of a stretch. It's still a reasonably large car and can easily fit 6 foot adults behind 6 foot tall driver. Only reason I had larger cars in the past is I wanted high end ones and sadly the more...

Strangely I think they have 3 maps basically. One as you say is stored in the car and is used to generate the route but isn't used for visualisations. However it's why the car can show a line for your route even when the rest of the map isn't loading. Then you've either got the vector map which...
