    EU breakdown cover

    Westrow, I went with RAC for both myself and wife on full UK breakdown, at home and recovery for only £125. This includes cover for onward travel, courtesy car, lost keys, tyre replace and legal cover. Check it out. It will obviously be more for cover for Europe but RAC was best price i...

    Home charging location of Charger

    My charger installation is complicated by the position of the meter and consumer unit as well. I didn't want 2 or three cables going all round the outside of my house so I asked if the cables could go up the wall into the roof space at the front of the house, ( a RWP is there so will partially...

    Looped Supply - Home Charge Point Installation

    UK 2021 Model 3 Q2 collection and delivery experiences

    Just looked in my log book and my M3 LR collected in May is listed as E5D. So it has the 75kWh LGChem battery. Shame to miss out on 6% extra battery. May be silly question, and sorry if it has been asked before, but what is difference between LGChem and Panasonic ? Someone mentioned charging...

    NEC Pick up

    Simon, I picked up my car from NEC, Hall 16, 2 weeks ago and it was a breeze. The staff were helpful and gave me time to look over the car after confirming it was paid for. The car was fine and I just had to sign their tablet screen to accept and they handed over the 2 keys(like credit cards)...

    New Model 3 came with short charge cable

    Thanks Jason, that is what I thought and as it is only for a few weeks I don't think I will bother buying a special one. The extn lead I intend to use is only 2m long and has a thicker cable than my other extn leads so should be ok. I can just wait for a sunny day and let the pv panels work...

    New Model 3 came with short charge cable

    My supplied blue cable is 3m. 2 x Questions? 1. My 3 pin lead is too short to get to a socket unless I can manage to park very close to the house and then it is on the paintwork ( Zappi tbf sometime in June) and I wondered about using an extension lead, fitted with 3kw flex? and 2. If the blue...

    Wiki UK 2021 Orders and Pending Deliveries

    I have finally taken the plunge and ordered an M3 LR AWD in white with all black interior and 18", so mostly just a basic M3. Your to do list looks very much like mine. I already have PV panels so the Zappi is the one for me. Just watched the video about mudflaps and they seem to work really...
