Hi all, having been with octopus go for the last couple of years I’m looking at switching to intelligent, especially now my model y is listed and it appears to work with our podpoint. The only fly in the ointment is my wife still wants to charge her xc40 hybrid some nights, which I believe won’t...

Hi yes over the phone. Seemed to be no problems finding the Y,

Yep on the phone, they found the vehicle and variant - just need a reg nearer the time to confirm it all.

Referring back to Insurance for the MY, i have just changed my cover with direct line to insure my MY LR from 19th feb through to my renewal in october. I just need to confirm the reg when i get it. Coming from a M3, surprisingly i'm now due £125 rebate. for ref, i'm 41, s,d p inc business and...

Just a heads up - had an email from Tesla - there will be a model y at Westfield from December 11-31st. I can’t wait to see it and hope it’s a rhd.

I have a MY on order and i intend to use Lloyds to PCP it. They now have the Model Y on their finance quote page. Given the figures they must see the Y as retaining it's value, Purchase price: 56100 deposit: £15000 mileage : 15000 apr 4.9% comes out at circa £447 a month over 49months, with...

there are definite cost savings - fuel costs far outweigh the electric costs, but still can’t avoid paying the road tolls, about £70 each way roughly. we didn’t have a roof box on as only one child so 2 snowboards went down the drivers side of the car. At least in Easter the temps won’t be so...

We went to avoriaz at half term back in feb in our model 3 sr, We allowed a couple of days to get there which didn’t cause any issues with time or charging but different story on the way back. We left avoriaz at 9am on the Saturday (v busy day) with a Eurotunnel booked at 10pm, the traffic was...

yep, same for me, tried to start a playlist and kept defaulting to some random song ignoring my commands. a different play list worked fine. apart from that it is much better, the curated playlists appear and finally podcasts are showing!

ha, i wouldnt dare try it, though you would end up grounded quite near to the tesla showroom for an instant replacement. I don't think there's an autopilot in existence that could cope with hammersmith broadway!

I had an invoice last week from Leaseplan, thought it might be a speeding fine or something, but turns out it was a £384 credit note for 12 months road tax. I wasn't expecting it but sure enough it came into my bank account today. When i originally took the lease 12 months ago the 2nd year...

That’s good to know leaseplan will let you informally extend. My plan is to keep the m3 for the 2 year lease and then pcp a model y, lease is up Oct 21, but I can’t see the m y being available by then so I’m glad there’s an option to keep the m3 until it is ready. I’d also opt for a LR model...

We are currently ‘staycationing’ in the Peak District where public chargers to put it politely are at a premium. This morning we attempted to charge on a 7kw charger in Bakewell. There are 4 charging posts with 2 per post. Bearing in mind it’s a busy tourist car park only 1 post is accessible...

Hi, I can vouch for this bike having had it for over 2 years. Quality and reliability has been great and it’s not overly expensive compared to a Brompton for eg. I use it to cycle the last part of my journey to work and it def fits in my model 3 boot without having to put back seats down and...

Evening. Siri works for me using Tesla Remote. you have to set it up via the Siri Shortcuts app. It doesn’t work through the Apple Watch but works fine through the phone. I use it for commands like ‘open charge port’, ‘open bonnet’ etc. It’s quicker than unlocking the phone and opening the...
