So I drove the Taycan and really didn't like it at all. Tech was second rate, everything was optional at great cost and the lack of regeneration was annoying after 7yrs in Tesla's. Range was very average as a result. No assisted driving tech to speak of, user interface was crap and salesman was...

And even then anyone in the UK can drive a LHD car if they really wanted a Plaid.

I saw somewhere that they had resumed deliveries to LHD European markets but I haven't checked into it myself. Personally I'd be very reticent to buy an EV from a small manufacturer. As Tesla found out it's one thing to come out with a model but it is exponentially harder to get it into mass...

You did indeed, my Model S wears the "360" plates (wife's car) and my X wears "275". I've been interested in Heritage plates since I was a kid and started collecting them several decades ago when they were relatively "cheap". I'm as surprised as anybody else about the values of them today. I...

My fully optioned 2017 X P100D was circa $310k OTR. I strongly suspect that the Plaid if it ever gets here will be north of $300k OTR, perhaps significantly north given the strong US dollar and the rise in OTR costs here in the Socialist State of Victoria. I'm sick of waiting for the Plaid...

I hope so, with the adverse currency conversion, our LCT, GST and ridiculous stamp duty, any US price increases on S and X are effectively doubled by the time the car is in the hands of an Australian customer.

Daily commuting is mind numbingly boring and in Melbourne, very time consuming. Anything that makes that easier and more comfortable is welcome. After 5 years and 150,000kms with FSD equipped Tesla's my experience is "FSD" does that. Is it worth $12k though? Probably not at this stage. As for...

I reckon a fully optioned Plaid will be closer to $300k now. I'd read the fine print on your contract, that is a huge Delta for Tesla to swallow and they don't have a great history of looking after customers. The website has had pricing and spec TBA for 6 months or more. These orders will be a...

FSD at $4200 on a $300k P100D in 2017 was worth a punt. I've got it on both my cars and have had the FSD ECU upgrade already (I had to ask), and features have been added over the 5 years of ownership. I'd put FSD in the "nice to have" category having used it for 100,000 km in the X and 50,000km...

Model S and X Plaids on order to replace our current 5 year old P100D's.

` If it is about to go out of warranty (like mine) it sounds like you were one of the unfortunate souls who bought the car at the peak of Tesla pricing. My Model X P100D was north of $300k drive away. If you have a guaranteed buy back deal the price you get to hand it back is likely to be...

Just wait 6 months after the release and Tesla will drop the retail price by 30% :rolleyes:

I'd love to buy a new Tesla X or S to replace my existing cars that are about to go out of warranty. Not interested in going back to ICE vehicles and Tesla still make the best EV's out there; but the current Models are barely any different to the cars that I already own. I'd probably update to...

I've always found it intriguing that the Tesla's on Carsales are invariably all private sales. If Tesla Inc. is taking older model Tesla's as trade-ins on new Tesla sales, what are they doing with the trade-ins? There are almost never any "used" older Model Tesla's on the websites "used...
