    Just about to say, that's a pretty busy site, so much so I use the Campanile Hotel one

    Supercharger team sacked?

    Very strange behaviour and really not good for the future of Tesla. Not sure this is the way, to get his $50bn bonus reinstated either. As this will be my last Tesla, hopefully it can survive for 3 more years Thunderfoot will be creaming his pants at this news 👿

    OEM looking spoiler alternatives

    Morning all, After some cretin reversed into me, i'm looking to replace a cracked M3P spoiler. Currently Tesla are out of stock and TBH the cost is pretty hefty at £700. Has anyone have any experience with alternatives (i.e. have one fitted), ideally looking for a close to OEM look as...

    Model 3 Highland Performance

    Nothing there that would tempt me out of my current M3P - think i'm done with Tesla after this one. Liked the sportier front seats mind

    An interesting journey last night

    nearly 3 years in, i get a sweaky bum with anything at 10% or less so will always charge if the car thinks that - plus its against my religon to do 65 on a clear motorway :)

    Sentry mode is great until its not turned on and some one hits you

    Nothing stolen just think someones lapse in judgement. Hey ho, with excesses as they are thinking it'll be a self funded fix. Anyone have experience of swapping a spoiler? ;)

    Sentry mode is great until its not turned on and some one hits you

    It's finally happened. I'm in the netherlands and come out to find broken glass on my rather cracked spoiler and no evidence of the heinous crime. So have a small depression on the boot lid (no creases so hopefully my PDR guy to the rescue) and replacement spoiler to sort when home On the...

    Its a looooong way off - could you imaging being in a car doing 17-20mph, you'd be getting undercut left right and centre :)

    Tesla Alternative?

    Generally love red, but the previous Tesla Model 3 Red is not that nice IMO, the new shade far better

    Just going to throw this out there, but do you use a VPN on your phone? I get this when i've left my phone using a VPN set to the US for example

    Improvement ideas for Superchargers - and who to contact?

    lol, not quite, but often exceed the 2M height that car parks seem to enforce

    Improvement ideas for Superchargers - and who to contact?

    Slight tangent, I would like height restrictions to be displayed on the supercharger map as many locations have restricted heights

    Residuals / Depreciation

    It's a self fulfilling prophecy - you bitch about how bad your electric car is to own, then are surprised when no one wants to buy yours. Clown.

    Octopus "Failed To Trigger Bump Charge".

    Bump charge never really works for me. I just start the chargers in the talks tesla app or turn off smart charging in the octopus app

    Residuals / Depreciation

    19 month M3P bought with tesla loan (26k deposit) £60k new, WBAC 32k - good example of how not to buy a car. That said 8 month old M3LR that formed part of the deposit £0 depreciation. So still right way up at the moment - just. If I was buying an EV now, i'd go for a 12-18 month old Taycan -...

    Good news, I find myself doing a stanstead run nearly every month. Whilst the apple green chargers there are pretty reliable they're quite expensive

    2024 Insurance Costs

    Just quoted mine last year £770 with Aviva, renewal from Aviva £1100. Comparison sites, £840 so £70 hike - all things considered OK with that. May be one of the few benefits of hitting 50

    Model 3 Highland Performance/Ludicrous Spotted

    Hopefully the car will standout a bit more than the lesser Model 3s, that's my current complaint with my M3P, particularly when there was a 10K difference when i bought mine Love that red

    Trade in Values from Tesla (& other dealers)

    :) i did just that - came out of a 2021 M3LR in 2022 for zero loss into my current M3P. The less said about the value of this one, the better

    My experience taking Tesla to court about FSD

    If ever there was a thread of the year award, this should be it for 2023 & 2024. good work @edb49.

    Trade in Values from Tesla (& other dealers)

    I came out of my 2021 M3 LR with 0 depreciation and straight into a M3P. I did a we buy any car a few weeks back and i was quoted 32k so a 28k drop in 14 months - you win some/ lose some. It's a shame as i wouldn't mind dipping my toe in to a year old taycan as they seem good value at the mo

    Camping in/with a Tesla

    Tried it once and i have a thread somewhere on here. I was in amongst a bunch of tents and was very conscious of the noise the car was making, so much so i ended up turning camp mode off. It ended up being a cold night and moisture build up meant i had drops of condensation. Wasn't a great...

    Model 3 Highland 318 vs 344miles

    This, the max i've ever used was 90% (100% -> ~10%) but i'm risk adverse . Unless you know there is a charger at your destination, you'd be brave dipping below 10%, IMO

    Tesla Alternative?

    Very interested in this - my friend recently bought a petrol GTS macan after previously having a 911 and loves it. When I'm barely getting 180 miles out of M3P @ 70-73mph a change may be on the cards (i know we need to wait and see what the winter figures look like)

    Was there last night, looking forward to these opening as i'm frequently travelling to Stansted 186 mile round trip, and in this weather my M3P only does 180 miles (roofrack sucks juice) at 100% - had to use the apple green chargers whilst available and worked, were pretty expensive for a splash...

    Cool, if that's the case i may go back to getting my charger to trigger the charge like i did on Octo Go

    App nor octopus IO not waking up model 3

    I do, I don't find the service that reliable and quite often go to bed wondering if i'll get a charge. I don't think you'll get the cheaper rates if there is no plan

    2023 Holiday Update

    Biggest win for me and i'm not 100% sure if this was this update or a previous one is to be able to adjust the wiper speed by the left scroll button - have now reached a point where i can cmfortably change the wipers without looking at the screen. Although if anyone wants to design a new stalk...

    Have 44.30.1 and its been the first time where the wipers haven't been utter sh*t - progress Now if I could have full beams turn on when requested and not have to try 5 times, my life would be complete ah balls, think i've posted in the wrong thread

    Autopilot is getting worse, not better.

    Intelligent Octopus (IO) not charging Tesla 3 via Hypervolt charger

    I have this exact setup Just to clarify:- - There is no schedule setup in Hypervolt - There is no schedule in the Tesla App - The smart charging setting in the Octopus is enabled. - In Octopus do you see a plan created (may take a few refreshes)
