    App updates (What route does the data take?)

    I thought that but the car finished the update when I was nowhere near it. I got out having downloaded 30% ish, then it kept going while i was gone and it had no other wifi options.

    App updates (What route does the data take?)

    I've taken delivery of M3 RWD this week and the first update has shown in the app. My driveway is too far away from my house to get a wifi signal. I started the update via hotspot to my phone without realising that it would take ages. I didnt have time to wait so I'm now in my house working but...

    Wife, kids and dogs in a M3?

    Ive thought of that but not sure its big enough, one kid is in a booster seat so it makes them wider. I had convinced myself to go with the Mach E but delivery dates are horrendous so I'm back on to the M3. I may just put up with the inconvenience and use the CRV more than we currently do.

    Thanks for all the replies guys. Lots of food for thought. I'm leaning towards the Polestar at the moment but I'm test driving a M3 on Friday so that might change. This is a company car so it's through the lease company. Used models are not an option unfortunately

    They are both Crossbreeds so it's not quite so straight forward, but their sizes are approximate to those breeds.

    I'd never put my dogs in one of those...my kids on the other hand 😂

    Wife, kids and dogs in a M3?

    Once a month I go to head office which is 300 miles away. Sometimes I need to head to Aberdeen from Cardiff. Mostly (pre-covid) it's 200 miles to an airport then my work is overseas. The rational part of my brain says that I should get a sensible/practical EV that I can use with the family...

    I've never had the luxury of being able to afford anything better than "ordinary" in the past. It's one reason why Tesla has such a strong pull on me. 12 months ago, if you had told me I could have an e-niro I would have been happy but getting a list with Tesla/Mustang/Polestar on it reframes...

    That's definitely under consideration. My concern at the moment is that it could be wet, sandy dogs, muddy dogs or god forbid, dogs that have rolled in fox poo! Can you tell I have a tendency to overthink?

    Wife, kids and dogs in a M3?

    Yes I'm keeping the CRV. It seems counter intuitive to take trips out in a CRV when there is a Tesla parked on the drive but I understand your point. That is the exact reason i haven't ruled out the M3 completely. I'm thinking that there is enough room in the boot of a Mach E/Polestar for short...

    I could, but its not my money so I wont :)

    Wife, kids and dogs in a M3?

    Thanks, that's what I was afraid of. The Model 3 is at the top end of my lease allowance so I don't think it would stretch to a model Y. I need delivery in October as well so I'm not having much luck, if i could be sure of the MY pricing then i could potentially extend the lease on my current...

    Wife, kids and dogs in a M3?

    There are some similar conversations on the threads but i wanted to take it a step further. I have to pick a new company car. 90% of the driving will be just me (All fine), 5% will be me and 2 dogs (back seats down or with a hammock), 5% will be me, wife, 2 kids and 2 dogs (???) Has anyone found...
