Hi all, hoping someone can help desperately. My dad purchased a 2015 Model S, it started showing error messages and eventually we took it to Tesla who said it was the charging loom that has corroded (without a full diagnostic) and Tesla even admitted they shouldn't have replaced and charged for...

Hi guys, recently purchased a low mileage 65 plate model S. it has the MCU1 with no upgrades. I have managed to get a bargain deal on an MCU2 out of a salvage car. I can fit the MCU2 myself but does anyone know anybody who could program it into my car? Many thanks!

That’s good to know, I have never done PCP before. Usually always leased and to some extent I made the right choice and the salesman was correct when he gave me the figures, but sadly feel like had I know that the remaining residual is going to be far lower due to price cuts I would have stuck...

Ah that’s a shame! At least it’s better than nothing!

Fingers crossed, this is my only hope but it’s a long way away!! As I say I hope they could just give us some form of compensation such as FSD because when you take into account the higher price along with reduction in resale value it’s a massive blow!! :( most people are just looking at the £8k...

I guess you haven’t even considered when it comes to selling the car? I sadly took delivery on the 3rd of December, so absolutely Zero incentives, even after asking several times if there were any. I originally was going to lease the car and the sales guy said you can also do PCP as another...

The thing is, as you say above with BMW and other companies offering favourable discounts on cars which I do not mind at all as the resale value of the car isn’t really affect via deals on individual cars. Why I am annoyed is that they have cut £8k off the exact same car as a whole. Completely...

I received my MY RWD in early December. £3,500 down, £805pm 36 months with a final payment of circa £27k. And now the same car is £632 per month with a similar residual which is an instant loss of £6k as I managed to get a 5.9% interest rate. I’m very brand loyal and have been with BMW for...

What’s really annoying is when I was in the showroom I decided to go for the Tesla in November for December delivery as they explained that I would have circa £10,000 equity after 3 years plus interest rates flying up so I’m really annoyed that I feel pressured into it all! Then to see I’ve...

When did you place your order out of curiosity? Or collect your car?

I took delivery on 5th December, do you think I would have anything to claim against?

Very true, but it’s going to affect them because I am not purchasing the car until they sort it out and if it’s not sorted in time I will buy another car and they have lost a customer, so it’s in their best interest to sort it asap.

Hi All, Just to help everyone, I am in a similar position and the reason the Model Y RWD is a nightmare is because Tesla and Insurance have the BHP down wrong as 637bhp!!! I have complained to Tesla about needing to fix this asap as it’s returning crazy high insurance! Again with the car being...

But surely this could likely lay with Tesla as Tesla may have accidentally given a bhp of 647 instead of 347 and this is why ALL insurance providers have the wrong information?

Hi All, I am collecting my Model Y RWD next Tuesday and I have been trying to insure the car. I have noticed on all insurance companies the car is coming up with 647bhp, which is increasing the premium far higher than it should be, not only that... after speaking with Admiral, they have...
