    Selling a Model 3 Performance - Anyone tried using the brokerage system to sell?

    Apart from your current dialemma it sounds like an insurance nightmare, do you tell them what’s on the V5 or tell them the “truth” in case you need to make a claim and the “truth” comes to light!

    Wiki UK 2021 Orders and Pending Deliveries

    Tesla probably CAN but whether Tesla WILL is a bit of a lottery. As you will note if you follow others experiences, Tesla are neither the most cooperative on occasions and far from a desirable standard AFA customer communications go. FWIIW I got my Reg about 90 minutes from collection time...

    Windscreen washer with window open

    Yes, sorry for the flippant reply, I just couldn’t resist it as you left the door wide open for obvious ( but useless) retort.🤪 seriously, I completely agree with you, it shouldn’t happen, whether it can be cured without drastically reducing water flow, which of course might prevent effective...

    UK Model 3 Performance 2021 Waiting Room

    Don’t think you are being picky at all. It’s not at all too much to expect to be kept informed and to not be treated like a growing mushroom (Kept in the dark and fed s**t)

    UK Charge Point Installer Recommendations

    Not exactly what you have asked but... ALL the components inside your Rolec (including longer cables)?are available, usually off the shelf, at sensible prices (plus good support!) from Viridian (trading as Eco Harmony) prices and spec sheets for all their items are available on the eco harmony...

    Premium connectivity Spotify

    Not really (from the customer’s perspective) Probably (from a business perspective) I personally think it is somewhat “anti competitive “ and leaves (another) bad taste in the mouth by some of the mercenary tactics Tesla use, but then I am not one off Tesla’s accountants or one of their happiest...

    SR+ Car Mats

    My point exactly, not at all clear (for SR+) I readily admit, the app, not the description, is clear for the rear seats, but why oh why should we have to guess what we might get for our (not inconsiderable) hard earned dosh? FFS Tesla BE CLEAR please!

    UK 2021 Model 3 Q2 collection and delivery experiences

    I am currently having exactly this discussion with another forum member right now, one shouldn't have to resort to forums to discover what is or is not being supplied to you when you place your order. You should be in no doubt what you are getting for your money

    SR+ Car Mats

    So not getting what you have been told you will get is not a genuine issue? this is a circa £45k purchase, I like to know I am getting (what I have been told either verbally or in writing) what I am told I will get, to me that's a genuine issue. Its a matter of fact and clarity. Where does it...

    I just ordered an ID4

    For what it's worth, here's my brief take on the matter. I test drove an ID 3 before changing cars (from an E-Golf which other than range and size given a growing family was a perfect for me) I thought and still think, my egolf was a superb car, everything worked and worked ALL the time, UNLIKE...

    SR+ Car Mats

    Agreed (AFA configurator shows) but Tesla don't list a full detailed spec (like "proper" car manufactures:rolleyes:) the cynic in me tells me that allows them to potentially deny and reject claims to anything they have not committed to black and white. Lets be honest, the configurator tells you...

    SR+ Car Mats

    I have been told (by my personal contact at a dealer on 20th April) that they had just had an email telling them SR+ would all have mats. (Not retrospectively applied) I suggest that if your car doesn’t have them in when you collect, you insist dealer fits them (at no cost to you of course) and...

    Insurance New Vehicle [2021 Megathread]

    Many insurance companies will insure using the VIN number. Also, you can still get all your quotes and trawl the market using a fictitious Reg number, just change to the real one (or VIN) when you actually put cover in place.

    Insurance New Vehicle [2021 Megathread]

    Tesla told me they don't offer any insurance cover for the collection day. This left me with expecting to have to use the VIN to insure. Finally after MUCH requesting I got a reg number about 90 minutes before my scheduled collection appointment time. Appalling customer service, and so...

    Wiki UK 2021 Orders and Pending Deliveries

    Quick to take your money, slow, or usually fail, to respond to anything else. Sadly I quickly found out that Tesla are not a company you can deal with and trust as you should expect. One day it will backfire on them I suspect

    Wiki UK 2021 Orders and Pending Deliveries

    I see Tesla are still their usual helpful self (NOT) You would not get such a response from almost any other vehicle manufacturer in the world, bad attitude IMHO grrrrr How can such a good car be made by such an awful (with regard to how they treat the hand that feeds them) company?

    What features do you disable?

    And I find they don’t automatically seem to switch off when back in full bright sunlight. My wipers (set to auto) seem to have a mind of their own also, they come on when I haven’t seen a drop of moisture for days... grrrrr

    Engine Sound Modules? - Pedestrian Warning System (PWS) and Boombox

    They seem to have no difficulty at all in enabling the ability for you to give them money😂 they have also no difficulty in being downright awkward and obstructive after you have done so😡 Customer and service are two words that can never be used together by Tesla sadly

    Engine Sound Modules? - Pedestrian Warning System (PWS) and Boombox

    What about fitting one of those “yard of ale” sized air horns the big lorries have, that should liven them up, you might have to fit splash guards to the car though😂

    Its not quite the same quality, but to be fair, its not too bad and quite acceptable, far better than that awful stuff in the ID3!

    Salary Sacrifice

    I made the change in March from the e-golf I’ve had for the last 3 years. I picked SR+ as I could not justify the extra cost of a LR for the typical journeys I do. (Slightly more total mileage a year than you) The fact that Tesla have such a good charger infrastructure means that the odd longer...

    Model 3 Mud flaps

    Thanks for this info. I am leaning towards screw on rather than clip on purely for the fact that it might tend to be more secure in the event that one happened to encounter a high curb. Hopefully, they should be more securely fixed than clip on type, albeit more work to initially fit in place...

    Model 3 Mud flaps

    As it happens, mine is a white car (with19" silver wheels") ...and black tyres 😂 Its also good that they don't stick out wider than the front wheels. I've look at the sellers item, they are the screw on type, using some of the existing holes, not the "V2" clip on type @curmudgeon mentioned...

    If I get a flat tire in UK what’s my options?

    They save a lot of space insomuch that they are considerably narrower than a standard wheel and tyre, typically half the width

    There's always plenty of those in all the scrapyards😂 Seriously, does anyone know of a (readily available common) alternative make / model of car wheel that would fit or is the Tesla stud pattern not used on other vehicles

    Supercharger questions

    Birmingham (St. Andrews) is marked up like that. I notice there are 4 "main cabinets" at the end of the charger stalls (and there are 16 V3 chargers) so my guess is that 4 chargers are fed from each control cabinet. I have no idea if that's the normal arrangement for V3 chargers or not. Can...
