    Best Dash Cam for Tesla 2017

    I have to say having watched some comparison videos the THINKWARE F750 seems the better camera, especially the rear.

    Time from "in production" to UK delivery

    Great news S_B My Tesla now shows my car has been built and is in transit from our Fremont factory to the port within the United States. I am inclined to believe the car was finished last week and may already be onroute as I think the My Tesla is slow to update. Lets hope so. Based on what...

    Time from "in production" to UK delivery

    I am inclined to agree with you it looks like our 60d x are part of a run. From the info I received from the guy who runs deliveries for Western Europe they are a week earlier than scheduled. I know they are really late but if the shipping from the factory runs smooth we still might be in with a...

    Time from "in production" to UK delivery

    Hi AFDYCE good news about your X. MY 60D X is also in production for a couple of days so I bet our cars will be travelling together. I seem to recall your car was ordered around the same time as mine so this all makes sense. I actually think we have gone into production a week earlier than I was...

    100D Now Available

    100D now available extra 3K on top of 90D price. Which makes the upgrade cost of £6800 for a 60D to a 75D very bad value for money?????

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    DJP31 as I said I have been in contact directly with Regional Delivery Manager for Western Europe he has stated you just have to write to your DS requesting that you are happy for the car to be registered in march even if the car hasn't been delivered. I am not aware if tesla will expect payment...

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    Shane I know exactly what your going through as I am waiting for my X as well. I ordered in July. Tesla suggested at the time delivery in FEB 17. However after 6 false start my car is due to be built at the end of Jan. I have had a number of conversation with Tesla and escalated up to Regional...

    Mobile Connector and Chademo

    The service centre will update it for free at any time I believe. It can be done at services or when warranty work being done or simply pop or send it to them. It's not clear how often this is advised I am sure they will update me on collection

    Mobile Connector and Chademo

    My chademo is ordered and put aside for me a west Drayton. I will pick it up when I collect the car. Apprantly the service centre update the firmware on it before collection which regularly changes. I thought it wise to get the purchase out of the way in advance.

    Mobile Connector and Chademo

    Wannabe I do agree with you and I am not a fan of the Ecotricity but at the moment they have all the placements covering all the service stations on the motorways so I cant see me avoiding using them at some time or another especially as I ordered a 60D. Tesla still poorly serve many areas in...

    Mobile Connector and Chademo

    Xenetco I ordered my chademo adapter this week for my x which is due end of march. I thought I would sort it now rather than at the time of collection. I think right now it's essential for the uk whilst we have so few super chargers. When tesla have as many sites as ecotricity then it may not be...

    An old Rant by Arnold Schwarzenegger and i love it Go Arny!!!

    Some people may know that in his time as Governor of California and ongoing Arnold Schwarzeneger has been a huge supporter of green initiatives. I recently read this article he wrote on his facebook page from 2015 and thought I would share it as he is so spot on. I don’t give a **** if we agree...

    RHD VIN assignment and delivery

    One of the reasons for the delays for the cars from Tilburg to the UK was infact transportation. Apparantly due the the size of the model x the normal transport wasn't big enough so now they send a mix of X and S that works. It just shows you how the smallest of detail can throw a spanner in the...

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    Yes I agree that the supercharger & service centre's will be the next issue. Tesla failed to meet anything like its targets this year for superchargers in the UK. From what I am reading many of the chargers are becoming bogged down especially with 2 charger sites. I think its essential that we...

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    WannabeOwner from my conversation with Tesla I think the main push is to get the cars backordered in 2016 to customers. Remember only a handful of owners have received their X'S and Tesla UK have known about the VED changes for over 9mths and been giving assurances that we will get our cars...

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    DJP31 the information your giving is mostly correct and one of the reasons I pressed hard to speak to the person responsible for the UK. In my long conversation it was clearly indicated that it was all in hand and they had the ability to register the cars even if they are at sea. Its clear Tesla...

I like you and many others wanted answers re delivery and was not happy with the ever changing date provided by the DS. I contacted Tesla Chiswick and spoke to the manager who...

    Where would you like to see a new Supercharger?

    I have to say the number of new super chargers added in 2016 in the UK was a let down on what Elon promised. I think its important that these charger cover the UK's main arteries to at least the same level as the Ecotricity network and more if possible. In the sort term surely tesla could do a...

    Where would you like to see a new Supercharger?

    I am pretty sure they were going to add super chargers at fleet services. However the fire on the west bound side has temporarily closed services. Perhaps they can add them at the same time as the rebuild takes place. Yes my idea was to over south coast travel just ideas where they could be...

    Very sad and frustrated this morning following a reply from my DS to a late email I sent yesterday chasing for info as getting VERY VERY WORRIED!!! " Hope you’re keeping well. Your frustration is noted. To repeat myself, it’s extremely hard to know exactly when your car will be built. We’re...

    Thank Afdyce I appreciate you reassuring post. I am quite comfortable keeping with my 60D order. All points to great value for money. My only concern right now is we get our cars before the VED change takes place. I have to be honest it's the reason I brought forward the order to July this year...

    Delighted for the members finally getting their cars this week. However still down in the dumps as still no accurate information as to when our cars will be made.

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    Look I love tesla, and I am more than willing to give them some leeway. However I do feel this whole business of right hand drive being the second class citizen just can't continue. Elon needs to treat both markets fairly. It should be about when you ordered the car not where you are located...

    My tesla has now removed the mention of Tilburg, however the guidance date of between may and June 2017 still remains. It's a disgrace. The one place we should be able to rely apon has no accurate information. If our cars are scheduled to be built week of 26th Dec 2016 then we should be advised...

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    Well it's not good news today I have a confirmation from my DS that my construction date is now moved to after xmas and that's not definite. I was also led to believe that all UK builds had been delayed. Grrrrr it's so frustrating. It's looking more and more like march deliveries.

    Thanks Wannabe Bjorn stuff is great. To be fair he is working in a much more hostile environment than us in the uk. My towing will be in the spring and summer months so should help with the range. However whilst Superchargers are in short supply I will definitely invest in a Chademo adapter to...

Once I have a clear answer from Tesla I will advise so anyone in the UK with a 60 MX on order but not actually...

    Model X Price increase

    I also ordered a 60D X at end of July 16. I have to say my numbers are different to TAN I make it a difference of £12620 between the 60D I chose and the 75D now specked the same. However I paid extra £2400 for enhanced autopilot so really the difference is £15020. The worry is they will make us...
