    New collection tomorrow

    I collected last Friday and had a mobile charger in the frunk. Make sure to go over the car thoroughly and report any defects at collection - use your phone's flashlight on the paint to help pick up any fine scratches. I had a bad experience on my first attempt at collection and ended up...

    Collection of ex demo

    Thanks for the spot. I looked earlier and nothing was there. Makes sense! Hopefully can arrange rejection / collection on the same day. I've done enough train travel leading up to this purchase 😂

    Collection of ex demo

    I've just placed a deposit on this one, if it was the blue one you spotted. Same cost as my demo but new. Higher residual on this one, curious? Makes sense to reject this car now. What a hassle!

    Collection of ex demo

    I'm fairly confident this particular scrape is going to get fixed. Although I've yet to see it in writing, the supervisor said that the whole front wing / bonnet would be replaced. I can't fathom how a car can have so many imperfections in such a short space of time - especially that one around...

    Collection of ex demo

    I have considered this, but I'm not sure how repairable the scratches on the glass are, or the damage to the interior of the boot. I did suspect they're slower at weekends. They weren't even aware they had the car, so it has had 0 quality control and was cleaned whilst I done the paperwork.

    Collection of ex demo

    A bump to include some photos. Tesla still yet to be in touch and I've requested info on the returns process - I've seen a 14 day window mentioned. Do you think Tesa will be welcoming in restoring these defects? Has anybody been in any similar situations? Thanks Ash

    Sentry Mode - Depressing how many people open doors into the car

    If there's any way to find out her insurance provider, you could contact them with the footage. I'd avoid getting your insurance company involved if possible - although they would be able to do the legwork for you.

    Collection of ex demo

    Hi all, Collected my M3P yesterday - love the car! An ex demo with 1k on the clock. I do feel a bit frustrated, as I feel like there was a lack of communication between the Tesla logistics and the store. The collection point didn't even know if my car was there. When they realised they did...

    Sentry mode - Thank you! Merc hit the car & drove off

    C Can confirm I've had similar experiences. A few years ago my Mini was reversed into by an oblivious driver more concerned with sorting their hair rather than checking the rear view prior to reversing. They stopped, admitted fault, gave details (potentially false). Had the whole thing on a...

    Public charging

    Thanks for the info. Is there any particular reason you suggest charging on the AC at work prior to my long commute, as opposed to stopping at a supercharger on route? A few years back when I was originally reading into owning a Tesla, it was discussed that relying primarily on fast charging...

    Public charging

    I have, unfortunately the only ones nearby are rapid chargers and more expensive than my current options. There is a Geniepoint at my local Morrisons for 75p / kWh 🤮 May be worth taking a look at supermarkets a little bit off my usual commute.

    Public charging

    Oh, I didn't know this - thanks! I was budgeting for up to 75p per kWh due to the cost of nearby chargers in my area. This is good news!

    Thanks, I have noted the reliability (or lack of) when browsing through Zap Maps.
