    Black Horse PCP and new servicing (or not as the case may be)

    Spoke with my local SC last week regarding booking a service and getting some other work done. They told my that they only service and charge for things that actually need working on rather than charging a set price for a service. This should reduce service costs, hopefully it will anyway

    Home charging options

    I think they only have tariff, so everyone is on the same, there isn’t an off peak option. Below are the electric rates; Unit rate - Any Time: 12.16381 p/kWh Standing charge: 21.2 p/day

    Home charging options

    As an existing Scottish Power customer of 15yrs, I tried to switch to this EV tariff when my last tariff was ending. They told me that as an existing customer they couldn’t offer me the EV tariff...they literally couldn’t find the tariff on their system even after I gave them the exact URL on...

    My WiFi doesn't seem to work as it should

    Does your phone allow you to create a ‘Personal Hotspot’? If it does, connect your phone to your home WiFi, sit in the car and create a Personal Hotspof’ on your phone then connect the car to the hotspot. Not sure how you’d do it on Android...the above is for iPhone.

    Tyre fitters in Bucks/MK area?

    I had a punctured tyre replaced last week by ATS Euromaster, Kingsthorpe Rd, Northampton NN2 6LW They are contracted to Tesla so know how to handle the cars and all their quirks. Tyre was replaced with exact same tyre (Michelin Pilot 3 TO), which at £277 was £70 dearer than the same model of...

    Best energy tariffs

    Agreed - Peoples Energy said they couldn't take readings from smart meters as they are not setup to do so and it would be costly to change, but they would continue to look at possibility of taking reading themselves in future.

    Best energy tariffs

    Cheers Jayc, I got the best quote from People Energy so have signed up with them...if they turn out to be rubbish I can easily switch again to another supplier.

    Best energy tariffs

    My energy tariff is expiring in a couple of months so I’ve started looking around for the best deals especially in terms of electricity prices. I probably use about 50 KW per week charging my MS via my TWC at home. I’m currently with Scottish Power with an electricity rate of approx 20p daily...

    Try LV, they were best for me, but as already mentioned, each person's circumstances are different so shop around to find the best quote for you.

    V9 DashCam

    A quick google around and I found out this is how it's supposed to work. It saves 60*1 min mp4 files, overwriting the oldest over time, these are named 'recent-front cam-date/time.mp4', then when you press save int renames the last 10 files to 'saved-front-cam-date/time.mp4' so they don't get...

    V9 DashCam

    V9 landed last night in my MS, installed it straight away. I'd already bought a tiny 65GB flash drive, formatted it, created the root folder as instructed and plugged it into one of the front USB slots in readiness with V9 dropping. Went out for first drive today, all seemed to be working well...
