    Model X - Y : up or downgrade??

    Yeah 90d to MYLR… huge increase in range and charge speed. Y is quieter and is more comfy in the city. Deffo motorway chatter is a tiny bit better handled by X.

    Model X - Y : up or downgrade??

    Raven suspension may be better than the pre-raven build… it still is smoother than the y in certain places but the Y handles potholes, speed bumps and surprise hits way better than the X. The X is great for smoothing out motorway chatter but the X is WAY louder and less refined. Range wise...

    Model X - Y : up or downgrade??

    got the y on an overnight loan. Y is - Much quieter Way more usable space Better seat split + arm rest (2/3 split vs 2/2/2) Suspension shines where x falls down and vice versa Longer range Faster charging Smaller (city) Roof bars vs tow (tie) Acceleration and breaking far better X is -...

    Model X - Y : up or downgrade??

    Hi everyone I’ve had a model X 90 D since 2017 (built 2016). We wanted a large EV and used to have to lug a whole lot of stuff around. Now requirements is for 2 adults / one kid, city driving with occasional long trips (France) and sometimes bikes on back. As MX is 6 years old /40k miles...

    Crazy high residuals

    Would like to stay EV but no offstreet parking. Enjoyed it but practical issues of getting power are frustrating. As neighbours buy PHEVs access to lamposts gets far tougher which is a shame as conversely super chargers have been everywhere I need them Tempted to go for a PHEV whilst govt...

    Existing owners with lease deals and ‘odd’ models

    Turns out it’s worth way more than the balloon payment. Very impressed.

    Crazy high residuals

    I bought an MX 90D with premium cabin options, price came in at £100k on PCP with balloon after 4 years of £50k. Checked the auction sites and they’ll offer me £63k for it. I’m a few months before the lease ends but that’s incredible. So at the end I’ll have paid £37k for an MX for 4 years...

    Model X -> PHEV : Regrettably after 4 years

    Literally my EV experience or it’s going that way. Mostly I can leave on a lamppost when I need to but occasionally drive round. Range or Landy PHEV in a year for me.

    Model X -> PHEV : Regrettably after 4 years

    Living with an EV with shared lamppost charging hasn’t been easy for the past few years but it’s been worth it due to the environment, the car and the overall experience. Pleasantly there’s been a huge rise in EVs using the local infrastructure but it’s become impossible to rely on getting a...
