    is your 3G better than mine?

    Thanks for the comment, so my experience is typical. If I am in a city then all okay (although can still be a little patchy, however anything else is appalling). With EE I get better coverage, and thats just that, so I have tested creating a hotspot. What I really don't think is right is that...

    Glad it has worked out for you...Hamish and TechforEnergy can be recommended for a reason :) Good luck with the car, it is a life changer.

    is your 3G better than mine?

    I accept that despite a few snags that the SC are addressing, the MS is an amazing car, however after 3 months of use and 5000 miles the availability of 3G is driving me nuts. I am yet to complete a journey with the internet radio on though the whole journey, and the map is grey most of the...

    Tesla security issue

    Yes, that is why I posted it....there are people out there...not me...who will give out all sorts of personal info if an email, call or visitor sounds legitimate. So it felt like the right thing to do to lift the profile of this risk. As it turns out the email appears legitimate although badly...

    Tesla security issue

    As a warning to everyone... I am not sure if the following is legitimate, but it feels wrong and worth sharing. I received an email from someone this morning claiming that I wanted to join a Facebook tesla group, and should follow a link and enter my tesla password as log in. (paste from...

    Park Inn - PCN

    I also got hit....arrived in the dark, tired 3am...and did not see the general carpark signs, and it was lashing with rain so the idea of a walk to reception would not have appealed. Complained and Tesla resolved it painlessly. Suggested they add rule to system to ignore Tesla cars for a few...

    Wincester/Southampton Supercharger

    Also two sites in Exeter, Darts Farm (Original) and as of this week Sainsburys. I ran into a contractor finishing the install, who claimed that sainsburys have signed up to install 60 sites, with 6 in the next few weeks (Winchester and Exeter are 2....2 in south wales). Each site has capacity...

    Charge rate on a 32A home charge point ?

    I have the rolec charger at home, and unlike the 30A chargemaster it is 32A....so I typically get 22-23mph charge rate.

    On-street parking

    Depends on your milage demands. I have had the car for 7 weeks, and charged at supercharger almost all of the time...even though it is 40mins away I have so far managed to pick one up on the way home. Over Christmas I used the car every day nipping around town and did not charge at all as less...

    Updates to the OS for UK users

    Nothing we can do...it is all such a tease :) I WANT IT NOW....boo hoo. What does the screen look like if there is an update in the queue, I am worried that I (or my wife) could dismiss the upgrade prompt that I presume appears..and actually have the update waiting in the background to install...

    Firmware 6.1

    Hi all, excited by the new features for my 6 week old car :) Does anyone know if I need to be plugged in for the update to trigger? I have moved the car closer to the house so that it can reach wi-fi :) anything else I can do to encourage it to happen??? Paul

    Which Home Charger Supplier

    after a month of use of my new car, I am not sure how many need cases there would be for a 3-phase charge. My original obsession with charging calmed most over Christmas where I pottered around locally as I would with my old ICE, and did not plug in over the whole 2 weeks...with 32A single...

    Model S size for narrow UK roads

    It is a big car!! Hi I have had my S for just over a month, and there is no getting away from the fact it is a big car. It replaces my 2 year old Jaguar XJL, and I thought it was almost impossible to have a bigger car. In London generally things are fine, but you will have issues finding...

    Hi Graham Not premature!!!! I also ordered via techforenergy in mid Nov, and their service and correspondence has been excellent, however getting the actual government subsidy approved appears to take ages. They now have the box and sign off, and have offered two possible install dates before...

    I have been involved in the graphics industry for many years, and although I recently changed job I could get this done for you....I think I will be getting it done on my new car. It would be a 3M cast vinyl graphic, the same stuff used by the big fleets, so pretty durable...let me know if...

    I am leaning towards the rolec charger...Thier local contact phoned me today and sounded very on top of it....Chargemaster appear uninterested and are 2 weeks past. The BIG positive appears to be that the rolec chargers are free even at 32A...although watch this space to see if they continue...
