    Sanity check read hatch (boot) seals on passenger side

    Would someone be kind enough to check that the rubber seal between the rear glass and the boot lid on the passenger side actually bridges the gap? I've noticed on mine it doesn't - I have a service request in place for another issue but my rubber seems somewhat lacking on this side

    Gridserve Braintree

    Could someone confirm if the Gridserve chargers at Braintree are 50p Kw? I often see Teslas charging using the non-Tesla chargers, and if the rate above is correct, then I can understand why - Tesla are 56p
