(opps typo in title , should read 'Charging'. TMC does not allow editing title after it has been posted!) I plan to drive Amsterdam --> Paris --> Amsterdam over next week with family. The plan is to use the supercharge networks to get to and from Paris. However, I was wondering if there is any...

I plan to drive Amsterdam --> Paris --> Amsterdam over next week with family. The plan is to use the supercharge networks to get to and from Paris. However, I was wondering if there is any convenient charging network that I can use in Paris itself for changing my Tesla S. The only networks I...

So, it happened, yesterday and I thank God it happened when I did not have my two small kids in the car. Yesterday around 6:20pm when I driving to the Schiphol airport from Amsterdam town, I accelerated and merged into the traffic and moved from the third outermost to the second outermost lane...

Due to some unfortunate turn of events I had to drive AMS-BCN-AMS in 3 days, the BCN-AMS with wife and two very young kids and I have to say Model S 85 (6.1 fw) came out with flying colors. All in all, we made 15 supercharger visits and one CHAdeMO visit (at BCN). Overall it was a great...

I got my winter tires a bit more than two months ago (I know, what for I ask now!) for my (leased) S and KwikFit gave me Pirelli tire that was inflated to just 30 PSI and they were pretty surprised when I told them that the recommended pressure was 45 PSI "That is too much!" he said and I had to...

Hi all, I am thinking of making a weekend trip with family from Amsterdam to Köln in the next couple of weeks. The issue is that I don't have the time to try and get hold of any local charging cards etc. (like I did when I travelled to UK). Hence, the question - is it possible to do the trip...

Hi, Could someone recommend a good service for washing/waxing the exterior and bit of the interior of the TS, based in Amsterdam? From experience with previous cars, I would rather avoid the automated car washes like the one in Total or even the semi-professional (but expensive nonetheless)...

Hi all, Say there are two main routes from point A to B. I am not sure what algorithm Tesla maps uses to figure out which to use, but I think it is the shortest route. However it so happens that the unselected route2 is the one I prefer because it uses the highway (call it A10) rather than the...

Undertook a 1230 km trip from Amsterdam to Oxford (+ daily local trips) last 10 days with the better half, 4 yr old and a 1 yr old in our 85KW dual charger Tesla S. These were the charging experiences: Summary: Charging inside Stena Line Ferry: Charging at Ecotricity Electric Highway...

Does anyone know of a booster seat that will work with the third row kids seat? Typical ones will not work because of the location of the buckle.

Tesla support advised me to get hold of the Blue adaptor for use in my trip to UK. Does any one know how I can get hold of one in NL? Thanks!

Travelling to UK via Stena Line from Hoek van Holland. Emails to their support confirms that they let you charge EVs for free though they suggest checking in as early as possible in order to ensure place (you can't reserve!) Anyone had first/second-hand experience on charging on the ferry in...

Hi, I would like to keep a history of how my driving has been and hence the energy data. Is there any way to extract this somehow, other than by periodic photographing of control panel? :) Thanks!

[solved!] 2 week to get a service appointment! Having driven just under 500km on my new Tesla I found out that the back door's handle was not coming out often, seems to be a bit stuck. (is this a common issue? any simple solutions?) I called up Tesla and the earliest appointment date they had...

I hope to drive my TS to UK from NL and in and around London this summer. Is it a good idea? :) What are the things that I should keep in mind (Tesla specific, have driven in UK in EU cars before). Speciafically I am concerned about street charging. I know there is a suprecharger in London...

What are the typical Android/iOS apps that you all use with Tesla S. Of course there is a the Tesla app. I also hear good things about the New Motion app to find out location and details about public charging infrastructure. Any others out there that is worth downloading and using? -skn-

Hi guys, Sorry for English speak, not a native Dutch speaker! Picked up my new Tesla S couple of days ago and enjoying driving it so far. I had a question about using the public charging infrastructure. I live in Amsterdam and we do have couple of charging point in and around my...
