I thinkk this version is complimentary to Tesla early bird owners only :tongue: I guess they will roll this out pretty fast - several owners have reported to get this update at the same time, around one hour ago.

Firmware 7.1, build 2.9.154 is here with Spotify. See description here: Model S software/firmware changelog - Tesla Motors Club - Enthusiasts & Owners Forum - - - Updated - - - More details!

Yep! Commuting is about 115 miles each way. However, not every day now, but down to three times a week. Of course, with such distances you have to have faster charging than 10A or 16A - there simply isn't enough hours in a day to charge.

No problem here. Keep in mind you must stick to quality cords with proper diameter only. Too much resistance or unstraightened cords (loops) may cause melted cords.

Extremely cool! I haven't managed to get the 70A public HPC confirmed, but there seems to be two HPCs in Norway: * 48A in Våler - here: Ladestasjoner.no: Norsk Trafikksenter 2, VÃ¥lerbanen * 70A in Hamar - here: Ladestasjoner.no: Eidsiva Teslalader, Hamar

Ouch. That's a killer!

Just orderer 2 x Hankooks for my rear rims. Still no snow, tho'!

20.500 km in the first year/12.400 miles.

Hillarious!

I have been experiencing temperatures down to -35C with my Roadster, and this kind of frosting is seen on every car here, Roadster or not. What I use is a simple plastic scrape to remove the frost. Frost will settle during few hours if car is parked under the open sky. You can avoid the frost...

Some winterly photos From a lake run in Southern Norway, February 2010

And I would like to add the same impression on the UK service reps. They even have a Scandinavian mobile service tour coming. Awesome!

Good luck! :) I hope the Menlo Park staff manage to show you the "real" Roadster!

Norway seems to test new charging stations on some major road corridors. Specs are 400V/63A/43kW. From december 2009, all new charging stations in Oslo will be based on the new Ensto charging station - click for more pictures. Currently, the specs say 16A/240V - but the ctation is prepared...

Doug, seems like you caught my Roadster in the second frame just a few hundred meters from where Obama is tonight. Where did you get that pic? (edit) I found it on Flickr :)

The EU version with the Blaupunkt doesn't have the iPod docking. Instead, it features a standard USB reader. The USB cable shows up in the same spot as the iPod cable.

Ben, that could easily be true. Even when driving on dry roads, acceleration isn't even in the same league as it was before changing to winter tires. Well, the concept of living in countries where the sun is visible from zero to 5 hours a day means you have to sacrifice... I guess it's a good...

BTW, I got an email from Tesla about a week ago telling me to update the firmware when I change back to summer tires. Don't know why, though. Alex@Tesla writes: "Due to the innovative nature of your Roadster the firmware will require an update when you change back to Summer Tyres. We would ask...

Good! BTW, I just started commuting some of the working days in my Roadster. That's 185 km (115 miles) each way and with charging in between. Not much use for winter tires this far as temperature goes, though - 5-7C (41-45F) with wet roads, no ice.

I also have 4.1.28.33 BTW, I had an incredible trip today - 110 km drive through mountain hills with 2-3 cm of powder snow on the road. In some turns I could feel it was a bit slippery (ice beneath the powder), but the TC is simply great when accelerating on the long stretches. Also, I did a...

f0x, I got the 2010 EU Roadster Sport and changed to new rims & tires today. I use the same tires as you do except they are PA2, not PA3. Rims are BM Racing, Asti. I had only one pressure warning (front left) happening as I was changing, but no warnings at all afterwards. Could this be a...

Great deck - thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the R3, Gunnar! :)

FYI: Looks like 5-112 fits nicely!

Looks like a new battery type is around the corner

Well, I will of course try... :) Thanks

Gizmag test drives the Roadster - with a bulk of photos, too

Anobody here who happens to know the bolt circle for the Roadster? 110mm? Measuring in inches is no problem, I just google it :) Shouldn't be any difference between the 2008 and 2010 models? Or...

Whoa! Not bad. I guess I won't even be in the "R" queue, buying a Roadster this late :) *polling email*

The #30 - goes to me :) Wednesday, that is. And "we" is Gunnar's company Ferdinand Motor in Norway - Ferdinand Motor AS

Why not a Nordic club? There aren't too many of us...

Great walkthrough! Especially the touchscreen part was nice for a non-owner wannabe. Also interesting to see the techniques with the roof types.

Great, LST - congratulations! I'm heading for a test drive in v.1 next week - to see if a 2010 EU version is anything I could enjoy, before I buy. Not signature, though - I'll go for the regular EU version next year.

I talked to a European sales rep a few days ago and he confirmed that the european sequence numbers were not ready yet. Patience! :frown:
