    Cellular communication in the UK

    I travel around the M25/M2 corridor along with up and down the M40 to Birmingham and mentioned in the UK forums a few weeks back that the signal is much better than a few months back. Full 3g all the time, better than my o2 mobile. Someone mentioned Tesla is now using o2/EE.

    M40 corridor 3G connectivity improvement

    Yesterday was the first time I had a 3G connection from GU20 6QA to Birmingham and back and a solid one at that. I listened to internet radio most of the way with little buffering or drop out. I have been back and forth with Tesla over the last few months/weeks and they indicated there was work...

    That is very quick, when I ordered mine in July it arrived into the UK end of December. This was around the autopilot upgrade time so I think a number of cars got stuck in the production queue. Gary

    Shanghai Auto Show

    A lot of traffic around the stand yesterday, good interest in the cars and a lot of talk about them with the locals. The Telsa showroom can't be missed on the way to the show!

    is your 3G better than mine?

    Having driven +250 miles yesterday from Windlesham/West Midlands return, there's almost zero service via 3G on O2. I agree with Paul the service at best is appalling and will contact Tesla today, I would still purchase the car while 3G is nice (it's not a deal breaker), you can get around the...

The Defender is like driving a Ford tractor and is limited to short runs. The seats in the others are no issue and I...

    Xenon headlights?

    Googling around the Osram stock 35w ballast part is 10R-034663, I can's find a 25w version. They could be using the stock 35w ballast with a lower wattage lamp installed. It's a discharge so it's the upper wattage not the lower that's required. Has anyone looked at the UK ballast sticker? Gary
