    When to order a new Model X

    When to order a new Model X

    I first found myself in the market for a Model X last summer, but for various reasons it wasn't the best time to commit to the £105,000 that was required at the time. I decided to wait a year or so, but agreed that the sales guy should contact me if anything notable changed. I was duly...

    Temporary moving house (and renting) - charging question

    Both good points actually. As far as the temporary installation is concerned, yes if you get the right landlord they might welcome it. But some people can be funny with this kind of thing. However, I suspect the fact that we have a dog is going to be the bigger barrier to finding the right...

    Temporary moving house (and renting) - charging question

    Hi, I am on the cusp of ordering a Model X in the UK. It's a big decision, although there aren't too many obstacles in the way now. I think I've convinced myself that it's not total madness financially, and I love the car itself. There's one final issue that's bugging me which is... ... the...
