    Tesla open up the SuC network [in UK]

    Yes, two bays to charge one car basically. Or four bays if you're a Taycan owner who's not too good with spatial awareness.

    Tesla open up the SuC network [in UK]

    Taycan will plug in fine - two options - use three bays and go in sideways (CrabMode), or bring a pair of ramps so you can pull the car forward over the kerbs between the Superchargers so the cable will reach. A Mini will work ok but you need to turn it on it's roof so the port is on the correct...

    Road Trip - Charging in France & Spain

    I've done Manchester to the Algarve 100% on Superchargers - no problems at all other than a wrong turn in Bordeaux that made us panic. If a site is down the car will reroute you. We charge in Portugal using a cheapo 2-pin euro socket adapter and a 10m long cable'd brick charger from Screwfix...

    White interior — to protect or not to protect?

    White here, cleans up fine - mine has perforated centre sections which I thought might go grubby but so far (25,000 miles between me and original owner) all looks good as new apart from a tiny tiny bit of discolouration/creasing marks on the drivers seat base bolster. Not tried scrubbing it yet...

    Tesla Forum - Confused

    The TVR section of Pistonheads was very negative 10-20 years ago, every other thread was something breaking, destroying itself or falling off - have a read of any recent Mclaren forum and it's exactly the same, just with an extra zero on every repair cost. The owners are the development team...

    Would you buy this? Second hand vs new Model 3

    Tesla did remove FSD etc from cars that went through their used approved network then they can resell the same software to the new owner - not sure if that's still the case. On the flip side the Tesla warranty may be extended - or not! - worth checking that one out. Buying private or third party...

    Speed of DC 50kW CCS chargers

    I used a GeniePoint 50kw charger to test out my new CCS conversion on my 2018 MS. Stood in the carpark and had to open an account, add a credit card, fanny about with emails and the website and then it took ten quid from my card before I'd even had any power from them. Didn't work. CCS...

    Tesla 2016 FaceLift with AP1 MCU2 upgrade question

    MCU2 is easy to confirm as it'll have Netflix and youtube I think - from 68 plate or thereabouts. Of those two cars I'd go for the newer car too. You'd expect a newer factory MCU2 car to hold it's value better as any trade/computer valuation on older cars would assume AP1/MCU1 etc - that was my...
