    Passenger wing mirror didn't fully unfold. Needed to use the 'Fold Wing Mirror' to fold and then unfold them. Only happened once and I can't reproduce it. Anyone experienced this before?

    This is why we can't have nice things!

    This is why we can't have nice things. Some neanderthal decides my M3 would look better with a certain offensive WWII symbol on the bonnet. Too deep to polish out - difficult to photograph in flat light, but it's through to the primer. Any good body shop recommendations in SW London /...

    Model 3 MSM paint - major problems with clearcoat

    Hi, I’ve been handwashing my car since it was delivered on March 27th 2020.

    Problems connecting M3P to Wi-Fi

    Hello, I've just collected my M3P yesterday. It has auto-updated to 2020.4.2. My home broadband router is a BT Smarthub 6, which presents a single SSID for 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands. I cannot see either SSID from my car, which is strange as I have a very good connection via my phone from inside...
