    Who is buying a LHD Refresh M S/X?

    They’re still there, but only as new inventory. Pretty sure the custom order option went a while ago. Edit to add.. I see they’re missing from the website but they’re on inventory sites. Edit again.. they are there, I had to widen my search to all available

    UK Pricing piss take

    I think Teslas policy is to charge the same everywhere - I presume they mean before taxes, import duties etc, and they get the same even if customers pay very different amounts. Against Europe we seem very expensive, but compared to the US, after you've added shipping, 10% import duty, 20% VAT...

    Car location on Map is off by few meters

    One thing about setting your home accurately, and maybe more an issue when your housekey and car key were on the same key fob, somebody steals your keys the car will direct them to your house which they can then get into. Less of an issue probably (unless they stole your phone) but a thought...

    Model 3 Highland Performance

    I'm a little sceptical of reviews - either good or bad - I like to hear whats changed but then wait for more real world experience which doesn't help @FastLaneJB at all. These press days are on certain roads which are generally ideal for the car, get it on a pot holed country road and it might...

    Roadside assistance without warranty

    I have 3rd party roadside assist and I am still in warranty, one too many horror stories of Tesla taking ages and refusing to be friendly over tyres. Full confession, it’s also European wide coverage so I can get the car back home if I need to should it breakdown as Tesla will only recover you...

    Model 3 Highland Performance

    I've seen a video that shows the LG degrades less than the Panasonic battery so after 20k miles the LG one has the same if not better range.. it's a moot point in reality, we have a choice of take it or leave it, not this battery or that battery

    [UK] Report that Tesla not going to produce low cost “Model 2”

    There's generally no smoke without fire and Reuters appear to have been substantially correct to me. The Model 2 plans if not abandoned appear to have been completely reworked and some form of mashup of existing parts and changes are what we can expect. I'm still not sure what they can take out...

    Model 3 Highland Performance

    The HP thing looks odd, on the german website they say 460 PS, which is 450 bhp, different again, if it was KW it would be 616 (b)hp But cars accelerate on torque, the max power figure is likely well above 60mph so it could be different if it’s say battery limited and we have a different...

    Model 3 Highland Performance

    Ioniq 5N v this will be a head to head worth seeing, but please can it not be just a half mile drag race by carwow but something over a Welsh mountain road

    UK Pricing piss take

    Do our horses kick harder than theirs? Or should ours say BHP while theirs HP, or PS or are we genuinely being short changed?! Odd whatever

    UK Pricing piss take

    Tesla dropped the prices in Australia overnight by $3k Aussie dollars so maybe they’ll drop here, man maths say that would be about £2k off

    TeslaMate [megathread]

    I agree, many thanks, and a big shout out to @init6 as well (apologies if there are other very active contributors)- this thread together with @Mr Miserable and his shipping thread are great examples of how a forum can be really constructive in helping others..

    Referral Rewards Ending

    The supercharging end date will go out to up to 36 months so it's only worth holding out if you're already close to that or you think they may change the rate you can buy the miles at improves in the future. The other tactic if for some reason you have lots of miles but not a long expiry date is...

    [UK] Spring Software Update

    I think just Germany and the US looking at the notes which say which countries the features have been seen in so maybe cars linked to the factories
