    Tesla Announcement - access road restrictions at Newport Pagnell and Charnock Richard

    I think if the barriers are down then you are OK

    Charging woes

    The MCB (miniature circuit breaker) is the single pole 'switch' for an individual circuit. The RCD residual current device) is normally double pole (2 switches stuck together) and usually red. The MCB is for overcurrent protection, ie drawing more current than normal (6A for lighting etc), the...

    What happens if you are late for delivery?

    I doubt they will cancel as the vehicle would have been registered to you. Once registered it then loses value. They would probably ask for another slot a day or so later, which may not be as convenient for you.

    1st super charge on model 3

    But, you can use ANY CCS charger, a Model S or X can't unless they get an upgrade. Not sure if the other CCS charges are different cost to you though.

    Is it worth it?

    Or, . . . You could be getting a model 3 due to the ecological benefits.

    2 Newbie Questions

    1. Model 3 can only supercharge using the CCS connector, the 'type 2' connector is only for AC charging at destination chargers etc. 2. Not sure, as the Model S uses the small left stalk. If it is turning off, it should give a message as a reason.

    Premium Connectivity (1 year included)

    Not sure, but there was talk of charging for the SIM card data for Spotify etc. Could be this.

    free unlimited supercharging back for new S/X

    Just a guess, unlimited for the time you own the car

    Ordered P3+ without home charging option!

    Unfortunately, short commutes are the least efficient for EV's. More energy will be used to heat the battery etc than will probably be used for the journey. You will be fine, if you only do 8 mile trips now, you will be doing 24 mile trips in the M3 :-) :-) :-) Congratulations on your...

    Ordered P3+ without home charging option!

    Any of the CCS chargers will be fine, but a point to note is that with your previous cars, if you left t for a few weeks with half a tank of fuel, when you got back to it, you would still have half a tank of fuel. With a Tesla that is not the case. I am not sure how the Model 3 is affected by...

    Luxury Tax

    VAT was once upon a time a Luxury Tax (Value Added), but now it covers many more items. Unfortunately, history shows that Taxes do not go away, they may change their name, but they tend to stay. I think all home chargers are now supposed to be 'Smart' so it is possible to itemise each charge.

    Luxury Tax

    There is also the Kia E-Niro, but by 2021 there will be other marques available and the 'Luxury Tax' limit may well have been raised.

    Luxury Tax

    Regardless of how people feel about the Luxury Tax - we all knew about it before we bought our cars. If we didn't then unfortunately you didn't research enough. It is not a retrospective tax so YOU had the choice to buy & expect to pay for tax or do not buy and complain about the tax until it...
