I think we'll see an announcement from Tesla before we actually get FSD Beta/Supervised in Australia. It is also more likely to make an appearance in left-hand drive markets outside USA than here. The most recent updates in Australia are mostly just updates to the visualisation on-screen across...

Relative to my phone's GPS speed, my ICE car overstates by about 2-5% (depends how old the tyres are). My ~90km old Tesla MYLR overstates by about 2%. Both cars have GPS and fully digital dashes, so in theory could simply report GPS speed, but I'm not sure any car actually does this. Most...

I like using this tool, in case you haven't come across it. I've set it up to my vanilla MYLR's OEM tyre (255/45R19 x 9.5ET45). As an upsize, It recommends 265/45R19 on the same wheel. Speed offset is +1% here, but my MYLR reports approx 2% above GPS speed anyway, so should be perfectly fine...

Good ol' Canberra :D Insane difference though. I figured higher for Syd/surrounds, but that's a much bigger difference than I was expecting.

Am I missing something? My quote for a MYLR as of a few seconds ago from Allianz is ~$1.1k (clean record, 15k km, garaged, no <25, excess free windshield, choice of repairer, $2000 excess).

Also got the same SMS for my MYLR (-$3500 from when I ordered). Sorry for (non-business at least) buyers who took delivery in the last couple of weeks.

They do :)

Have used the blue Meguairs hybrid ceramic stuff a bunch - it definitely lasts between several washes. For those using it, dry the car, spray on, and wipe off with a clean cloth. The wet car, spray on, rinse off method does not last as long. Definitely not a proper ceramic coating though. In...

I may be wrong, but I think it's infrared light (or a heat lamp). Either way, professionals have these to speed up the process, especially between multiple coats. For a casual home application, park in the sun is a-okay.

The 9H stuff with regards to ceramic coatings refers to a graphite/lead pencil hardness test - generally from 9B (soft) to 9H (hard). 9H indicates it cannot be scratched with a 9H lead pencil. Some coats go as far as claiming 10-14H hardness, which is dubious as this does not exist on the scale...

Ha, I was hoping I'd get it too! :D But hopefully my car isn't too far away.

On Grand Eagle, no delivery date yet. EDD to Canberra moved back today to 1-22 July (from 6-27 July).

A plug repair kit + 12V inflator, or use roadside assist if wait time is reasonable. Will probably also carry some Slime sealant as a last resort.

It's down to personal preference, but the value proposition of a Model Y is pretty fantastic. I don't expect either to hold value particularly well, but will be surprised if the BMW comes out on top, given you'd be paying $20k+ more for it to begin with. Included servicing on the BMW is nice...

I presume you added the mud flaps? Some markets apparently come with front mud flaps.
