    Confused about model type - dealer supplying wrong information (UK)

    Thanks for the responses - I've asked them to clarify because I'm not aware of anything other than Long Range being available. If it is standard range, by the looks of it I'm looking at a 25% reduction in range, which isn't ideal. That said, it is cheap.

    Confused about model type - dealer supplying wrong information (UK)

    We - UK based - previously had a Long Range 2020 Model S. We're now looking at buying another one but am confused as to what a dealer has said to us. It's a latter half 2019 car (69 plate) and on the rear it says "Dual Motor". The dealer has mistakenly told us it is a 75D. The photo from...

    [UK] Model S/X LHD Discussion

    Yes, the RHD is an obvious issue. I don't see anything else out there that I particularly like. The Taycan gets very punchy once you go through the options list and the range is poor. Tried the (old) e-Tron and it was horrific. Could be persuaded by some sort of Merc CL Coupe equivalent I guess.

    [UK] Model S/X LHD Discussion

    Was on the list for an S and and X (Plaid for both) and have been for about 2 years. This is incredibly disappointing. Think we'll now get a Lucid Air or Taycan and then maybe an Eletre or Lucid Gravity (depending on when it launches). I saw a Lucid Air in California a few months ago. It's...

    Model S/X Refresh UK Waiting Room

    Had exactly the same. I paid the £100 reservation for the Plaid X in a 7 seat configuration (which I don't think they even make!) ages and ages ago. Price currently showing as £121k. We also have an S Plaid reserved, not had an email about that.

    Company Lease Insurance Unavailable?

    I came up against this issue trying to insure a Model X and S on fleet insurance - I thought it would be cheaper but the few companies I spoke to basically said that they don't cover Teslas due to difficulty arranging repairs, and they recommended getting individual policies with Direct Line...

    Insurance New Vehicle [2020 Megathread]

    I tried for fleet insurance (business leasing an S and an X) but was told that it would be cheaper to get individual policies with Direct Line. I had used the comparison sites and the quotes were coming up very expensive, and Direct Line has - for us - been about a quarter of the price. For...

    2020 Shipping Movements

    My Model S is to be delivered this Monday. Still no date on the Model X at the moment. Cannot arrange insurance as I don't have a registration number, which seems rather silly!

    Insurance Question - Fleet or Personal?

    Hello all, We take delivery of our Model S on Monday and I have an insurance question. I have over 20 years protected NCB, no convictions etc. My wife has yet to pass her test! We will have a Model S and a Model X. The Model S is going to be her car but in the meantime I am going to drive it...

    Model S - Wedge for Child Car Seats

    Exciting news, my Model S is going to be delivered in a couple of weeks. The main car we will be using with the children is the Model X but as that's not arriving for a bit longer, I need to get our 3 car seats into the S. So there are a couple of options. Buy new car seats (kids are 3, 5 and...

    Anybody waiting for a Model X delivery (UK)

    Waiting on an X and an S, only ordered about a month ago. S I think we'll have in the next few weeks as one popped up in inventory in transit so the lease company have swapped it over to that one. X I don't know. Long range, black, standard wheels, 7 seats, white leather. Be great if it was...

    What can I expect on a test drive?

    I was given a Model X for 24 hours, didn't request it but that's how they were doing it a few weeks ago. No free parking (though there is pay parking nearby), I got an Uber to there from my house.

    Model X delivery time UK

    I noticed a load of Model S pop up in inventory yesterday. I saw one matching my spec so jumped on it and gave the RN to my lease company to do a swap over. The site was showing the car was in London though, is this not correct? Where do we get delivery dates from? I couldn't see a Model X...

    Charging Advice - Installation at 3 Phase Supply Premises

    We've now got an S and an X on order (exciting!). Want to get my charging in place. Our warehouse has 3 phase supply so wondering what my best options for that are? Want to charge as quickly as possible. We're in Middlesex if that matters. Probably get 2 of them as it can be put through the...
