    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    Hi Robin, I'd be interested to see how you get on with the Model X. I'm quite interested in trading in my S for an X in 2017, but one thing flagged by others in the Facebook Owners Group is just how big the thing is; it's bigger than a Range Rover Vogue in terms of length and width. The width in...

    Elon Musk and self driving Model S on Ten O'clock News in a few minutes

    In fairness, that is technically correct, albeit it's a conscious decision in order to grow the business

    Where Does End of RDIO (22Dec2015) Leave Us Internet Radio Fans?

    @thegruf - I got the email too, also have a 90D but that's probably coincidence? @cornish85d - the Telegraph article referenced a Momday download. However, having received the email last Tuesday, I assumed some cars had it lastomday with more to come last week as emails came out. In hindsight...

    London - Manchester trip this weekend

    Almost - stayed at the Radisson Blu at the Airport and had thought it was the one in town. The Hilton was actually the only place at the airport that actually had a charge point, but was a lot of hassle to go between airport hotels. Agree with arg's point from earlier - by the time March rolls...

    London - Manchester trip this weekend

    Thought I'd just udpate on outcome of my first weekend with the car and the roadtrip - Collection of the car (last friday pm) - Generally all great. My delivery specialist and everyone involved in the sales process has been really good (and in fairness, I seem to have lucked into a...

    Teslas Sold in UK 2014 Q4

    Ah, that would explain it - I don't have the servicing option any more I'm afraid so looks like I can't give you the res number then.

    Teslas Sold in UK 2014 Q4

    Hi gbjk - sorry man, I can't find this anywhere. Just looked in My Tesla through all my docs and the original confirmation emails and couldn't see it anywhere, just an "RN..." number. Where can I find the GB res number? I was told at the time that it took about 10 days to go from Tilburg to...

    London - Manchester trip this weekend

    This is really awesome arg, thanks so much for this. I was slightly stressing at the back of my mind about looking like a total idiot when I get to a charging point (!), so this has really helped (plus I watched the Bobby Llew video on the ecotricity website which is quite good). The ecotriciy...

    London - Manchester trip this weekend

    Brilliant thanks for all the suggestions guys, really appreciated. I think the key factor will be if my ecotricity card turns up then. If it does, I'll likely stop somewhere for lunch and use the Chadmeo. If not, I'll factor in hopwood supercharger on the northbound leg and Oxford services on...

    London - Manchester trip this weekend

    Cheers for the tip - the Oxford one is only around 40 mins from my house so probably a bit too soon for a break - I think I might top up there on the way back down on Sunday. Sounds like Chadmeo will probabl be the best option for the trip...

    London - Manchester trip this weekend

    Hello all, So after the waiting, my 90D is finally being collected this Friday afternoon! Super excited, particularly as it might have the v7 software, great timing! I'm actually going to a function in Manchester on Saturday evening so planning on driving up Saturday afternoon from Uxbridge /...

    Contract hire excess mileage

    So in a word, yes, this is correct, you're taxable profit would be £60k. However, as mentioned previously, if you later sold these cars for, say, £25k apiece in the future, you would have to add on the gain of £50k (25k x 2) onto your taxable profit in that year. - - - Updated - - - Oops -...

    UK Tesla overall so far

    I don't think it's fair to say the UK keeps it's currency "artificially high", the exchange rate is freely set by markets based on an number of economic factors, albeit govenment monetary policy is a big factor in that. Germany might be better off but the rest of Europe (the South, France) is...

    London Model S sightings

    Mine is due "Late October/ November" but has been projected to be delivered as early as September for a period a few weeks back. I'm in West London so see quite a few (I'm not too far from the Heathrow Service Centre)... agree, can't wait! I wonder if Tesla will get done for cheating emissions...

    Insurance quotes for the Tesla MS in the UK.

    Broadly speaking I've had a little bit of a shocker on the 90D insurance front, thought I'd send out the results. My background This is the first car where I am the first insured driver (so zero no claims discount). I'm 35 years old and I have had a license for 18 years and a clean driving...

    Model S accessories list (UK)

    I was interested in some accessories (mainly boot space rubber flooring) for my Sep 15 delivery MS (almost here...!) - my delivery specialist has told me to look on the US Accessories website then order it from the local UK service centre directly.

    Short-Term TSLA Price Movements - 2015

    Insurance quotes for the Tesla MS in the UK.

    Thanks Rluner, this is really really useful as just getting ready to sort my own insurance out. I'm 35 with no NCD (as amazingly I haven't owned a car before and the MS will be my first!) so will update with my quotes once I have them finalised. I'm getting a 90D - do you think I can get away...

    Home charging advice.

    I finally heard back from OLEV (see below). So the charger subsidy is only valid once and cannot be used again if you move house: Dear Aman Thank you for your email. Given you have already benefited from receiving a grant for a domestic charger you wouldn’t be able to claim for a second one...

    Home charging advice.

    Brilliant - that makes total sense. I'd be tempted to go with untethered charge point in that case (so I'd just need a standard cable), but will see what the situation is with regards to being able to have an OLEV subsidy on each of the two properties I'll find myself in over the next yar (I...

    Home charging advice.

    Hi Arg, I appreciate all the info, that's really useful. So I checked and you're right - the OLEV is for a wall-mounted charge point at home while the Tesla voucher (£550 is the correct amount, apologies not £700; but up to two installs was correct, with a total value up to £1100 allowed)...

    Home charging advice.

    Yeah, that's a fair point on the lock actually, probably not essential. One other question on the OLEV stuff; I'm moving house but for various reasons the move date has been delayed until early 2016. I briefly thought about just using superchargers for 6 months (I live near Heathrow / West...

    Home charging advice.

    Hey Matt, thanks very much - this is super useful advice. I'm getting my Model S delivered late October and had just started looking at the home power install so this is great. I'm going to need an external power point in the front drive and the Chargemaster external point (importanly with a...
