    [Scotland] 20K interest free loan for second hand EV

    I suspect rest uk will follow. Will need to do something about the huge glut of used EV's that most still can't afford in 2-4 years when current leases expire. I certainly won't be getting another EV. It seems that the lease company my employer uses has decided to charge exorbitant prices...

    UK Model 3 and Dog Owners

    I have had my M3 since Dec i have 2 labs. The 3 is far too small IMHO and unless it was an emergency vet trip or such like my dogs will never be in the 3. I opted to have a second car for the dogs an old mondeo estate. Not an option for everyone i know but the 3 is far too nice/expensive a car...

    Charging Tips Please

    Far from it unfortunately. But I can afford the extremely huge charging costs for my Tesla... just! End of the day you are both entitled to your opinion. And many will agree with you and will want to take full advantage of free public charging. I don't see the point. As more and more people...

    Charging Tips Please

    I consider the infrastructure to be there for people who whilst travelling require a top up. Not people who live round the corner with a home charger installed to save a few pennies. The attitude of taking advantage of free charging wherever possible will lead to its quicker demise and also...

    Charging Tips Please

    Why buy a £30k+ car and then be a cheapskate when it comes to the £2-£3 it will cost to charge overnight at home? Maybe i just value my time more but I would't take an hour af my time driving to and sitting at a charger for the sake of saving £2. Seriously tho why not leave the charging...

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    Its crazy. I have requested lease company chase Tesla today for an update. Was really hoping for a pre xmas surprise lol looking less and less likely. From what your saying seems likely that the date Tesla gave me is the correct one they just haven't updated the leasing co yet.

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    How is that even possible?? What a joke. Tesla should be fulfilling the orders they already have first. Doesn't seem fair that some wait three months and others can rock up put an order in and get a car in three weeks.
