    Insurance quotes for the Tesla MS in the UK.

    I know you are not going to go with that quote, Rluner, but regarding those "little black boxes" - some of them have been demonstrably hacked, and as they connect to your CAN bus, can take control over braking and steering. As they also include a modem for reporting the data they capture, they...

    RHD Tesla Advice on selling used

    Also, I would not recommend shipping it to the Cayman Islands Although I do not believe they have a SuperCharger there, if they do one day install one it will likely be a US-configured SC, and UK cars cannot use them (or vice versa) I'm not sure about using the domestic supply, but I'm sure more...

    The worlds best home charger!!

    I don't know about Rolec, but for a ChargeMaster installation, there is this website: Login | Polar - ChargeVision (Use the "Forgotten password" with the email address you gave them at install, or phone them up for access details) However it's not as accurate or as comprehensive as Simon's. I...

    Parking Up, moving cones, with kids on board.

    Hmm I just tried it here and the car failed to start once the fob was about 1m away from the car (equivalent to you standing far enough from the car for the door to be open far enough for someone to get in) Of course I was trying it by placing the fob on the floor rather than on a person, and...

    Updates to the OS for UK users

    It seems to change colour on different versions, but the alarm clock image prevails (to the right of the "T" logo) The biggest thing you won't miss is that "Software Update" window that pops up immediately on getting into the car after it has downloaded asking if you want it now or at what...

    Parking Up, moving cones, with kids on board.

    Only if you were right next to the door kissing them good bye And even then you could track them (and even if they were savvy enough to turn remote control off, Tesla can still track them as that just turns off the phone access)

    The worlds best home charger!!

    Very nice Simon - especially in an office environment as you say. I'll have to come over and try it out one day :-) However you may want to report that they spelled "because" AS "becasue" in the first of the "We've noticed" messages and "minimum" as "mimimum" on the Manual Charging Schedule...

    Which Home Charger Supplier

    I think that's why it doesn't seem to affect many people. It actually does, but not everyone it affects has noticed yet ;-) Regarding the warm up - with the cold temps now coming in, I now turn on the climate control via the phone about 30-60 mins before I leave. Not only does it warm up the...

    Which Home Charger Supplier

    I have the same problem Simon, and Tesla are aware of it as a problem in the software. (FWIW I am on firmware version 1.65.15, but it's apparently not fixed, in even the latest version 1.67.125) The symptoms are: If you charge manually from within the car, you can push it to 30A (so chargers...

    Which internet radio provider do Tesla use in the UK?

    Thanks - I didn't think to look at the rdio site itself (!) Reading that though, it appears to have been next to useless last year (seriously...only remembering the votes for a few days!?!), but further down that thread (in a post dated Feb 24) RDIO says: So RDIO now supports down voting to...

    Charge cards

    Thanks arg - that is a little contrary to what Nicola at PodPoint said, but to be fair I guess they are still internally trying to figure out what the CYC management change actually means to coverage and their day-to-day operations. So I agree - driver beware, and maybe revisit in the new year...

    Charge cards

    Source East also allow roaming onto the PiM network - so with SE costing £10 and allowing you to use SE and PiM charge points and PiM costing £20 for only PiM charge points it seems daft to just sign up for PiM I contacted SE support to ask about the roaming and they confirmed (on 30 Sep and...

    Which internet radio provider do Tesla use in the UK?

    There's also Tunein, which will allow you to listen to more conventional "radio over internet" stations. Create an account on tunein.com and add some favourite stations (where you can easily search for them) - then add those login details to the car, you can easily open those favourite stations...
