This looks great, thanks for the tip - wondering about the part you have to fully disclose the car has been in an incident and give all those details the DVLA... any chance of that coming back to bite me in the proverbial anytime in the future?

Looks to be the same as these no? Check out this BMW 1 Series that I have just found on #motorscouk

hmmm - that is actually a really good point. this is the spec on DVLA

the dent is about the size of a two pound coin, with two little scratches inside where the paint has been taken off. It’s certainly not the end of the world, and I would guess I could get it repaired for roughly £200-£400 with one of the mobile repairers. I imagine an insurer would say more like...

forgive me for the noob question - if I report it to my insurer, will I lose my no claims? No claims previously, but I imagine that’s obvious with the no claims and all

Finally, I’ve got it! The video I’ve got is a little clearer than the upload above, and I’ve tried a lot of variations, but very confident with this: GN65 ENW This is a white BMW M1 according to the DVLA, which is what’s in the video. Now, what to do next?! I’d really like to track them down...

Hi all, After cleaning the car today for the first time in months due to the lockdown I’ve noticed a nasty dent/scrape on the passenger door where someone’s opened their door onto mine, painful! Gratefully sentry recorded the incident, but due to the rain it’s really hard to make out her...

Sadly I wouldn’t recommend them if you have a black model 3 - the colour doesn’t quite match, it dries ever so slightly lighter :(

this has been proven to be fake news - we need to be really careful about what we believe! Think about it - the human body temperature is roughly 36.2-37.2 degrees when healthy, and it thrives in that environment. So much fake news going around that people are swallowing up as fact it’s scary

Brands Hatch in Kent is 11 miles from Bluewater Supercharger, have considered doing this myself! Brands Hatch Track Days | Trackdays.co.uk

thanks for the answer! I should have said - I have an untethered box, so at the moment I have a 10m cable; which was pretty expensive in itself! Hence why I’m trying to work out the most cost effective way of extending. That extension you posted looks great, but unfortunately it’s a little too...

Hi all - hope you’re good! I’ve just put a new driveway in so we can get the baby in and out the car (long story!) and my 10m cable doesn’t reach the car anymore. What is the best solution for me to get another 10m in cable length (I need 17.5-20m in total) so I can charge my car? Extension or...

I bought this one, although it’s not technically a matte finish I can’t tell it’s on there at all and it was super easy to install. I’m really happy with it. lesgos Screen Protector for Tesla Model 3, 15" 9H HD Anti-Scratch and Shock Resistant Center Control Touch Screen Car Navigation...

I’ve read this a few times, but also conflicting opinions. I’m no expert, I’ve never used this kit and I don’t actually know if it will work or not, but I’d give it a go on my 20” M3P tyre if it was flat and I was likely to be waiting hours for some reason, unable to get help. My (limited)...

this is true - but I've read cases where they can sometimes they take over 24 hours to get to you, meaning you may need to have to abandon the car for a day or so. Each to their own, but I’d rather have the tyre kit above in the boot also, incase that happens to me!

I bought this: Model S/X/3 Tire Repair Kit Out of stock now but should come back in stock soon hopefully, it’s handy as I can keep my tyre pressure at the right level without going to a garage or petrol station, and if I get a flat, I can use the sealant to get to the closest garage.

Log in online, click the account tab, click contact, then you’ll see add ‘additional contact’. Add their email address and Tesla will send them an email to set up as an additional driver. Won’t work if you’re leasing and having the problems listed above mind.... hope that helps

What’s happening in this post (The Beast of Burbage) is what concerns me the most about this setup. Someone, somewhere has access to my car through the Tesla app. I’m not 100% sure but I don’t think they can actually set up their phone as a key without a keycard to set it up in car, but they can...

My pleasure - will do!

For me, the option to add another driver is there, and I can submit a request, but it fails to allow it - i assume due to not being the primary account holder for the vehicle.

Regarding supercharging - I’ve added a card to the online Tesla login (even though I don’t see my car there) and it works for payment, I can also see the invoices. Plus my two referrals are pending in my account too, so those (at least) are working ok. edit - the referral orders haven’t been...

Yeah - get yourself on WiFi (or tether to your phone if you have a decent data plan) to get that updated, it’s up to 2019.40.50.7 now, quite a few versions ahead of where you are...

same thing, and I’m leasing through Arval, organised by my Broker, Yorkshire Fleet. I’ve been in regular contact with Arval and Tesla... Tesla are drip feeding me a short email reply once a week without properly resolving it yet... the issue I’m told is that we’ve been set up as additional...

My pleasure, glad to have been able to help - happy new year to you!

I guess if you’re doing the same thing but it’s not recognising it, you may have a dud splitter, or one or both of the charger cables may not be pushed/seated in to the splitter properly...

Hi - are you talking about the official Tesla or the one I linked to? if you’re talking about the one I posted, I have the pad plugged into the splitter, and then the single end to the splitter plugged into the left USB port - the USB port to the right/steering side is free for my...

Nice! They’re close to me.... If you don’t mind me asking, which product/service did you go for and how much did it cost?

I thought I’d take this opportunity to wish you all a very merry Christmas, and a happy new year! And feel free to share pics of your Tesla related gifts here.... I’m sure there will be things we all want or need that are worth sharing! Have a great day today all :)

Sure it’s possible. There’s got to be millions of third party adaptors out in the wild across the globe, and if house fires were a real threat I can only assume we’d hear about it a lot more, and I’d hope the government would intervene with new legislation to try and control the epidemic. I...

I’ve started to get this recently on occasion too. Most of the time it’s fine, but occasionally won’t record. I have a super high speed (read & write) usb stick that is much faster than the recommended speed so I’m pretty convinced it’s not the drive. Edit - usb drive is up to 400 MB/s read...

Mine are like this too unfortunately

thanks - can you link the chat URL you used please?

M3P..... it’s good to torque

sure John - I bought all three of these, really happy with them for the price. They do come folded up and on first opening they look like the creases will never come out - all you Need to do is run a hairdryer over them for a minute or two and the creases just fall out Hamkaw Floor Mats For...

Echo this - I used one, gave it to my broker on ordering

Thanks for the answers chaps, much appreciated

Hey all - quick newbie question... had my pod point installed today, excited to use it and not have to run an extension out the letter box anymore for the time being! Is it beneficial in any way (speed, battery life/condition etc) to pre condition the battery for home charging 30 mins or so...

T Try an American accent and see how you get on!

Tried about five times to get my M3P to call my fiancé by saying ‘call jade’, and it kept saying ‘cool jade’ on the screen. Sixth time I did my best (which is still pretty terrible) Californian accent, and hey presto, it registered and made the call. this was my first time using voice...

I got mine from EV wraps in the US... fitted in about 15 mins this morning. Looks great and the pre cut parts and YouTube video to follow made it super easy... highly recommend their wraps Model 3 Center Console Wrap

my M3P did this tonight a number to times also, after updating to 2019.40.2.1 last night. Plus I’ve had blocked or blinded cameras a lot today... although it’s been pretty wet and foggy out there

I called Tesla on ‭01628 450604‬ (option 1, then 1 again) four days before collection and they gave me the reg so i could sort insurance

you’re welcome sir! Really glad to hear it’s all worked out for you.

Hey Oliver - if it makes you feel any better it’s not unlike Tesla to have messed up communications.... you could find when you arrive the car has black wheels as you would like. Fingers crossed for you that this is the case - keep us informed how you get on, and good luck!

Sent you a DM

Hi Jeremy - super useful, as always with your posts sir! quick one though - I know very little about the actual technical work electricians do, but I have to be clued up on the regs side for my work. As far as I’m aware, in England and Wales it’s not a legal requirement that all notifiable...

Haha! It’s really refreshing in this day and age to find a company that value good old fashioned customer service... they seem to really care about the entire process for their customers, and nothing is too much to ask. I’m more than happy to pass on my experience to others in situations like...
