    What were you driving at the start of the '10s.....

    You all had nicer cars than me In 2010 I had a 1998 Citroen Saxo VTS. I loved that car - best handling pocket rocket I have ever driven. If you had told me then I'd be driving an Electric Car in in ten years time (got my Model 3 in 2020) I would have laughed at you, never mind that I now have...

    How many people are having connectivity issues?

    Logged in to say the same thing. Drove to Disney and back in the space of a few days, didn't have a single drop, back in the UK for a few minutes and signal started dropping once more. Like others, started for dropping for me in early November. Signal blackspots where there definitely weren't...

    Curb rash

    All 4 wheels on my Model Y are basically wrecked at this point. My wife has smashed them all multiple times, and I am guilty of rashing them on at least two ocassions. I've never owned a car with such unforgiving wheels, the wheel (20" inductions) basically sit proud of the tyre. Yes my wife...

    [uk] UltraSonic Sensors removal/TV replacement performance

    Just watched this myself and I'm very pleased my MY from last summer has sensors on. Vision, from this test at least, looks absolutely woeful.

    Ovo UK - New EV Charge tariff

    Thanks for the advice all - just signed up and granny charging at 10p a KWh - they really don't care what charger you have if you drive a Tesla. This will save us a fortune - brilliant stuff. Now I need to sort a replacement 7kw charger.

    Ovo UK - New EV Charge tariff

    I see! Well that changes things then (gives me more options on what I get to replace the pile of steaming turd that is the Tesla Gen 2 charger) - any chance you can remember any more of the supported chargers? I would go with the Tesla Gen 3 charger seeing at is seemingly supported, but I have...

    Ovo UK - New EV Charge tariff

    Interesting that you're using a Tesla Gen 3 wall charger - the Ovo sales guff makes no mention of connecting to the Tesla backend or the Tesla charger itself in terms of compatibility - they only mention a couple of Indra and Ohme charger variants. If Ovo's offering is more flexible, as you...

    Ovo UK - New EV Charge tariff

    Our Tesla Gen 2 Wall Connector recently packed up (not for the first time - these things are pieces of *sugar*) so I am in the market for a new charger. I was thinking of going for the cheapest available option but, being on Ovo and trapped on an expensive (standard) rate I could recoup the cost...

    Long delay replacing Model 3 Windscreen

    Hey - sorry for the late reply I've not been on here for a bit. I went my own way and called Admiral's claims line - explained the situation in detail, made out like the car was unsafe to drive (it was, crack was right across my vision). Asked to speak to the guys manager and made it VERY clear...

    Had a 2020 SR+ as a loaner recently and thought I'd share my thoughts, comparing against my 21 LR

    Yeeeep - just ate charge in the winter. Great car overall though, loved it! Looking forward to seeing how the MY with it's bigger battery and heat-pump compare on the coldest of days.

    Had a 2020 SR+ as a loaner recently and thought I'd share my thoughts, comparing against my 21 LR

    My 2019 SR+ would do about 150 miles in winter at 70mph with the heater blazing. Not great.

    Gen 3 charger from ebay - warning

    My gen 2 wall charger came from eBay and I had a similar issue. Tesla just needed convincing that I was the original buyer from new (little bit of fibbing required) and yep, they sent me a brand new unit. Shipping me the unit took ages and in the meantime the one already wired up started...

    UK 2022 Orders to Delivery inc the shipping thread for posts with no shipping news

    Picked up from Southampton this afternoon. Big long queue but didn't mind waiting as I knew it'd be worth it. Shortish drive home for me back to Winchester. Funny seeing so many other new Tesla owners on the road on the way home. Car drives great. Zero issues with the car that I can see...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    Exact same time / location as me! :) We're just going to go and get some lunch in town before pickup. If you spot an eager man in a white Seat Ibiza, that'll be me, come say hi! (I've had to do some long journeys in that Ibiza in the last two weeks, after selling our 2019 M3SR+ - definitely...
