Yes, it’s enabled in the phone for message access and contact sharing, the “sync messages” option on the car is not visible

Mine is mostly deaf, occasionally picks up on some commands, retypes my phrase in bold and then does nothing. There is also no sign of the message option on the call app... :( was there no text reading option in the UK??

This would be a very welcome inclusion, not that I wouldn’t relish the thought of some more festive jingle bells type fun of course... :rolleyes:

Genevieve or Evie for short... kids idea from watching Wall-E again and Evie being, well an EV but liked the reference to the old ‘50’s Ealing comedy too

I have a similar at my home charger, an Elvi EVBox, max rate is 16/16 I initially thought it was the car, I couldn’t change the rate as it was at a max of 16. Though at other chargers, my friends pod point, I get 32/32 and the same at public chargers. When other cars charge here they also...

This can’t be common though can it? Apparently Model 3 was the best selling car in Norway Q3 so maybe they will all be suffering the same fate. They will have a lot more than a cold snap :eek: What do they do, who can translate the Nordic forums here?? o_O They must do something... unless...

Mud flaps I think will be a definite as will the number plates but I think vinyl front and rear, though I too would like to see some pics perhaps... aero wheel swaps with centres and wheel nut covers may wait until the spring and better (?) weather. Will have to watch the vid a few more times...

This is good news, I’m hoping mine is finding its way over from Zeebrugge some how and if it on one of these ferry type things pretending to be tankers that would be just great as long as it gets here!

Is this the one? I’m not a nautical shipping type but it doesn’t look like a vehicle one...

Congrats and good luck, it does look grim up there on the news today but am sure you’ll do ok, no experience mind apart from the usual :confused: YouTube vids but looks like the refined way the power is delivered and the traction control it was difficult to spin even in rough snowy Canadian...

How far from Grimsby to Brum? Is Birmingham north??... Maybe my collection centre will change to Leeds, same distance from me to both

I like this idea, seems to make sense (if there is anything that does!) apparently mine is allocated but still at Zeebrugge! :( If Southampton is congested and there is backlog to Zeebrugge sending ship after ship would only add to the backlog perhaps???:confused::confused:

Good news! That’s a quick turnaround, well done! Where are you picking up from in the SW? I’ve ordered the same but end of August. I’ve heard mine is in Zeebrugge still so wondering how it’ll get over here.... :cool:

Hello! :D It’s not been the case for me, I’ve always has a name on the account page though I dare say different companies have different policies. I’m going through Octopus / LeasePlan...

Thanks I did wonder if it was WearOS. It looks really good. I have a Garmin that will run widgets that “wrap” a look and theme for a watch, there seems to be a community of developers making them but nothing in this vein, I will have to look at a wear OS device now. Google have just acquired...

That’s very impressive, I like the look of that, which watch is it?

There she is, slipping along midway between the Azores and the Canaries thereabouts.

I have just come to this thread perhaps a little late it looks, I had some dealings with a company in Peterborough that we’re also recommended by Rolex themselves, didn’t get as far as getting an order, the process to get a quote was painful enough and when it came I was told a “4 to 6 week...

Is there a Fondue Set? This thread sounds like The Generation Game - for them that’s lived long enough to remember, others can YouTube -

Lease-Plan through Octopus are waiting until 7 days post collection for initial rental / deposit it says on my contract so if collection date goes to plan that will be towards the end of Nov.

Both mine, 15th and today, have been 501xxx. Really not sure if this is just an exercise going through the process or whether it means anything regarding the two ships and their cargo. I have kept a note of mine so will see if they match the final one.

I am also leasing, ordered end of Aug and confirmed order received beginning of Sept. I had a VIN appear on the 15th, I’ve not looked since then but following all these comments I have been tempted to just had a look and have a new, different number has appeared. It’s very similar but lower...

Ah yes, makes sense thanks

Okay, this may be an eye rollingly daft question, I’ve not got my car yet, hopefully Nov, but while you’re driving along a row of chargers at a station how can you tell which is converted at a glance short of stopping at each one?

I've been told early Nov, I now have Birmingham as a centre, I gave Leeds, Heathrow and Birmingham as options and Heathrow is looking very busy apparently. It begs the question are more cars going to London and the south or are people requesting Heathrow because anecdotally that is where they...

I have got boot and frunk pneumatic lifters on my list... Frunk Auto-Open - using gas struts | Tesla

What is your status at the mo @tsh2 ? You have a similar spec to me made within a few days of mine and in the East of England... As of today (26 Sept) I have no VIN or date...

This is a great offer, hope I will get the same if it ever comes that I get my delivery date :( bizarre question though, would anybody actually turn it down and reply “No thanks, I don’t want 2 yrs free”...

Congrats on your pick up, hope it goes well! I don’t want to be an old grumpy sod but are Tesla offering free supercharging? just because I haven’t heard doesn’t mean it isn’t impossible they’d make an offer... maybe I’m over cautious because of my work but without seeing the mail and not...

I can see that could be an issue but wouldn’t it be more efficient to make the process more transparent then people may not be cancelling? I’ve been given November as a date extended from a potential Sept/Oct. I didn’t think this was too excessive but the lack of info is annoying. Can’t see...

Sorry to hear you had to cancel, I can imagine it must be hard to do but to then have them phoning up to offer you an earlier slot is rubbing salt in to it... how bizarre is this process?

As far as I’m aware Big_G the delivery location is decided by Tesla dependent on your location. I have only learnt this from my leasing broker as the fields on the account page are all blank as I expect are yours. I have been given an estimated date as in November. Following the threads here...

My first test drive in a M3 was a P+ and one of the first things I noticed was the view out of the mirror was narrow, I'd imagine even worse if there was a huge headed lardy in the back or even anyone over 4'6"... I remember hearing once that the best remedy was to turn the rear cam on the...

I know I’m an old cynic but it is obviously a revenue stream, the requirement to send an image of the V5 implies that someone will be looking at it, performing some task, then claim that the £10 is an “admin charge”. There is no reason why with the registration number, they aren't able to see a...

Octopus EV, very pleased with them so far, changed to Octopus Go tariff too. Mileage excess = 9.5p per mile first 10k then 14.25p after 10k

Never known a car have such an effect on people, I’m wondering whether ship spotting can get any more exciting! :D I’m enjoying all the comments but not got so much as a sniff of a VIN yet :(so I reckon I’ll be waiting for the next batch of boats with a different view...

I have an OctEV order in but only since end of Aug. I was initially told Sept/Oct but after a call this week was told Nov by another at the team in Octopus. I am trying not to ring or mail to often but found out my agent was on hols... so now irrationally I have gone into full Homer J Simpson...

Hey that’s a positive post thanks :) That’s good news, will definitely be worth a ring then, hope I get a helpful agent that has had a good weekend and feeling helpful. ;)

Perhaps in all the work going on around A14 East... Cambridge services would be ideal.

Wow 2500 cars seems a whole load of cars, I’m not overly expectant that I will be in one of them though... I have only word from the lease co for end “Sept early Oct” but as mine is a plain vanilla white SR+ black interior I am always hopeful so fingers are crossed! Especially as from what...

I think I may have liked one but was going to give phone and keycard a good go 1st. I suppose it’s all academic now. Though I dare say by the time they become available here I’ll be sure either way whether I would use one or not.

There seems to be a common thread here for early to mid October. Never thought I’d be taking so much interest in shipping details, I’ll be reviewing tide times next and up at 6 every morning with Radio 4... Dogger, Fisher, German Bight...
