Yup, depending on length you'll be looking to pay between £100 and £200 for a decent quality cable. I've had a good experience with evonestopshop and evcables.

Of more relevance is the spec ordered and how that matches what Tesla decided to build.

Not a day 1 reserver (because I was on holiday), but a first weeker and first day orderer (timeline in sig).

I was, but it was using too much battery and being triggered over 70 times a day by people walking or driving past, so am only going to use it when parked in sketchy areas. It also didn't overwrite.

Not yet and my local service centre said they wouldn't have any for 3-6 months.

No problem with the Pod Point rapid at Lidl on Muller Road, Bristol, or the Chargemaster at the Co-op in Newark.

My house. I might park up at night, but want to charge from the solar in the daytime, so won't plug in until later (my cables cross a pavement).

Model 3 LR AWD (details in sig). To give me back my freedom after 3 and a half years with my Leaf. I can now do everything I used to do in my Prius, including two week camping holidays (with the kitchen sink). The Leaf was great for 95% of my driving, but the limited range did stop me from...

My journey was well over 100 miles, but I spotted the defects and made the appointment before then (and was never told a 100 mile limit, they did mention the 7 day/1,000 mile limit). If they do say that you only have 100 miles to report the issue then make sure you conduct a thorough inspection...

Maybe there aren't that many people with defects. I've posted elsewhere about my experience, but can repeat it here. There were a couple of light scratches and one heavy scratch noted at delivery (that they had tried and failed to fix because they weren't fully set up) and immediately booked in...

Mine was 4m, and you can't daisy chain type 2 cables together, you need a dedicated extension cable.

First week I had my first automatic it crept into the back of another car at a roundabout as I wasn't expecting it to keep moving after I've stopped. I turn creep off when I have the option so I don't have to remember which car I'm in and whether it is going to keep moving after I've brought it...

I found the best prices from evonestopshop (and are who I bought my extension cable from for my Leaf).

Mine is 4m, which is alas 1m too short. I did ask them to change it but they said 4m was standard (I was always intending to buy a longer one anyway as I can't always park right outside my house).
