Yes if you can get the battery out and reuse it then it's a rather large capacity, that's got to be worth a reasonable amount.

Hard to say, you'd have to factor in the risk of how long it might run vs a possible unfixable fault with a component that cannot be sourced rendering the car scrap. I mean £5k seems fine if you figure you fancy the risk it won't break down in a year's time, far less than the deprecation you...

Works perfectly for us, we use an Ohme Pro charger which is hooked up to Intelligent Octopus.

Did a quick google but couldn’t find anything on this. Mind sharing where you’ve seen it? Doesn’t surprise me though…

Looks lovely mate, exactly the kind of thing I want to have in a couple of years.

Knew they hadn’t done enough revisions to roll it out to me yet. A .7 to .9 is normally when I finally get to join in.

Well unless they are a regression 😉

:)

Oh no. They might not have finished their onboarding tasks yet to understand that almost nothing we all say is without a humorous slant ;)

It's not but most are still on this however maybe in a week or two you'll update like the rest of us. They roll out in batches rather than all at once so just have to wait.

Yeah one of the new features in the update.

My wife also goes very close to the curb a lot. Most of the time she gets away with it but bot always ;) She struggles to understand the space needed for the car so on a tighter road with cars coming other way she's too far over. It'll still be wide enough to get a tank in the gap but not to her.

I'm looking forward to that as there's tons of these zones near me. Good to hear it's nice.

I don't like that advice :P

You'll need to learn how to complain if you want to pass your Life in the UK test to become a citizen someday. Also need to sharpen your sarcasm into a fine instrument ;) I said to a guy on a call from another country the other day "Hi, how are you?" as the normal greeting and he started to...

They do need to remove from their training data all the female drivers to avoid that… I’ll get my coat 😂

I like looking at it as I guess lots of others do but also other than knowing if you have limited power or regen, it doesn’t really do anything useful. More a “Ooo, this hill is steep enough that I am charging the battery while maintaining my speed”. It’s the inner Nigel in me (If you remember...

Ah yours is a lease I guess? No choice of delivery for me. Have to collect. The wife’s already bitching about having to drive in London 3 weeks before it happens 😊

You are one of the chosen ones ;)

Just turn scheduled charging on.

The firmware updates don’t work weekends.

Come on this isn’t true. They use machine learning to workout how quickly you seem to be getting on with the UI, along with the camera to check your level of puzzlement on the interface. Once they are comfortable you’ve worked it out, they ship you a new update where they’ve moved it all around...

Not sure it’s random. Some of the people here always seem to get updates the same day as other members. There is a system I suspect, we just don’t know what it is.

Indeed. You can this one is a school run car, doesn’t even have long trips in some temps.

Also 8th June. Brent Cross for collection? Put myself in for 2pm.

My wife has a 2023 M3P so heat pump, comfort suspension job but we can get down to around the 255Wh/mile when it’s around the 20C mark on a reasonable. Also have a Highland LR on order, getting it in about 3 weeks but believe based on videos that should be around the 200Wh/mile or just over in...

Agreed, they exist, have the land, space for cars, roof for when it’s raining, shops for coffee and snacks, etc. Most are a bit smaller in space but basically it’s the same model as Gridserve’s Electric Forecourts and I think those are great. I also think by the time most of these change into...

If you mean WiFi into your house then try putting a hotspot on your phone then connect it to that when you are outside. Not ideal but you also probably won’t be changing anything on it that often.

Feel like you’ve hit the nail on the head there.

Sadly they’ve removed creep mode on new cars also. I mean I like the one pedal driving but shame they’ve had to remove choices just because they’d have to lower the range if they had it available.

I believe even with options they’d then have to lower the range. My gut is acceleration boost lowers range slightly and why it’s no longer available on the highland.

Yes but the money is normally better, AKA look at his cars ;)

I normally get it probably 2 weeks after some of the first people in UK so I see the usual suspects just recently got it so maybe a week and a half roughly. Right at the back end basically. I understand your point on software. Previous cars would have say an 8 year model life, after that they'd...

Indeed it's unlikely though there was mention from some competitors that they would try to pick up some staff so maybe they didn't have to suffer the not stellar job market like most.

Sadly they've removed the option to change this on newer cars. I believe they have to report the range based on the worst configuration so giving you the option to lower the cars range means they'd have to lower it on their website. Hence better to remove the option and keep a higher range as...

Think the stack is v12 but we only get the benefits of the visualisation. Everything else like autopilot will still be on the non-FSD legacy code base.

No update for me either but I've always been at the end of waves on wife's car. Nothing today so back to 24 hour wait to see if anything tomorrow.

I've read about this, how often is it recommended to try this?

I don't think the sex of the employee had anything to do with it, or you'd absolutely hope not. Apparently she reported into Drew who was fired earlier so possible Elon didn't hire her or have to speak to her all that often. The $500m he claims for Supercharger expansions is also being reported...

Only if that can be turned off, I hate that and have always turned it off. It's a legacy system if you ask me that shouldn't be needed when you've got traffic data being sent to the maps automatically.

Exactly and it needs to work well because the Highland cars only have a button so you have to use this as you cannot pick between a full lever movement or a partial one for 3 blinks with just a button.

They will repair them but just not your pack. They'll likely take your pack out, put in a reconditioned pack and then send your faulty pack off to find the problem batteries / modules and replace them. It's then ready to be used as another reconditioned pack. Frankly I don't plan to own a car...

Well eventually they’ll be converted like the Shell one in London into just EV charging or closed completely. It’s a good ways off but in theory as the number of ICE vehicles dwindle, the business case for having as many petrol stations will drop. And come on, we’ve all used petrol stations for...

It’s a different sized module so they’d have to come up with another module design to fit it in the older cars all for just a few people that would buy it, it just doesn’t make commercial sense I suspect. I do think they’d have offered it if it fit, why not at the end of the day.

Most warnings from cars on this are when you are pretty close to the camera so normally no turning that you might take before however even if this was to happen, it’s hardly a big deal. The point is you know there’s a speed camera close by. You can just glance at the map then to see where it is.

Same way every other car with this feature does it. By using the GPS to know where you are and its data on where the cameras are?

It's kind of a major design flaw to not have a grill over it. Just Tesla being super cheap.

But still have about 30 years more supply of toilet paper? ;)

Strangely I don't have my VIN in the app yet. It's not asked for payment either at the moment. Guess needs to be a bit closer to delivery.

He didn't.
