    Hello and help with first 185 mile journey home.

    there is a SC at Sheffield- not sure how much of a detour- atleast no butt clenching moments. certainly ask if you can get a charmed adapter- u should be able to buy one off the dealer- tesla, for about £400- most useful thing.

    Purchase Incentives, Discounts, Tax Breaks (in UK)

    yes am buying through company too which if u have a ltd comp is the best way to go. i probably won't be buying the car as the future maybe a m3 with p90dl is what i would be after

    Purchase Incentives, Discounts, Tax Breaks (in UK)

    well said arg, i've struggled to keep any car beyond 2yrs and hoping with this i can keep atlas 3yrs with some GRSP(man maths of course)- best way to convince other half too. end of the day- bought cars to enjoy them and first time it may actually make some financial sense

    Purchase Incentives, Discounts, Tax Breaks (in UK)

    I have opted for GRVP, whether I exercise or not depends on market conditions but me here hoping Tesla would still be here in 3yrs and M3 would be out and I can p/x for it or go to new deal etc. Also its something to bargain for if someone else comes along with a BEV range in excess of 150miles...

    Purchase Incentives, Discounts, Tax Breaks (in UK)

    It might be worth to look at guaranteed resale value- which tesla provides for all their cars bought through finance available at 37th month. get a quote- u may be surprised. Should settle doubts re resale values

    Price Rise - 23 Nov 2015

    Re the grant- the news or the rumour until it becomes news is- it will be a tiered system based on Co2. obviously BEVs should have full grant and PHEV will have reduced based on co2- atleast thats the plan. I cant see it going completely.

    Price Rise - 23 Nov 2015

    worse case scenario on a base car before 5k grant 70D with no options current cost 60000- rise of 5% add 3000 to it making it 63000 70d with no options current cost 60000- rise of 2% add 1200 making it 61200. now i'm sure you are going to add some options which further increase price but not...

    Applying referral codes after reservation

    Exactly what i did and sent the email saying I'm going to cancel order and reorder. Apparently its a lot of hassle for them if the order is cancelled and reordered so immediately got a call from the dealer and sorted by end of the day. Good luck

    New Car Ordering

    Yes received VIN within 24hrs. I suspect once-Your Model S has entered the production queue at our Factory in Fremont, California." then the VIn should be there.

    Contract hire excess mileage

    Basically lets assume after speccing up your 85d the total cost of the car is 70K. Now the whole amount can be written off as capital expense in year 1(if you have paid tax and your company has been running before then no worries. if its only been trading for 1-2yrs then may not be feasible) it...

    Charging to 100% in the morning and leave at night

    I dont think its good idea to keep it charged 100% all the time. Secondly you can leave it unplugged and it shouldnt really matter- as per TESLA advisers.

    Any Tesla Model S owners in Worcestershire

    Hi PbCeng- I'm based in worcestershire and am in a similar situation. Having done some research the closest SC is on M42(hopwood services), several charging points in worcester and local towns. But I reckon the best bet would home charging. As mgboyes said if RR fits then tesla should. I do have...
