I can't afford a new Tesla right now, but I did toss up the idea of doing PCP and trading it back in afterwards and then using the guaranteed value to go towards at least a newer/better condition Tesla at the end of it, though it wasn't my first choice.

Yeah I just looked it up and that warranty is correct. I'd thought it was 100k but that's for LR RWD but regular AWD is 120k, which is the one I'm looking at so I'd have about 10k miles left on the warranty which is better than nothing but that other one I was looking at which is £2.5k more...

I'm looking for info about what actually causes a battery to fail, or under what circumstances they need to be replaced as I was looking at a higher mileage 2021 M3 Dual Motor LR (110k miles as fleet car), but the overwhelming majority of people seem to reference battery degradation or range as...

I've seen one which was about £1100 a year or £100 a month for an aftermarket warranty for the car. Not sure if that's a normal price but I'll have a look at others if I can find them *I found another that was £330 a year for a silver cover but it doesn't cover batteries even with the maximum...

That was my other viewpoint. I figured if it hasn't died after 110k miles, I doubt it'll just die so suddenly after I buy it, but it's all a gamble at the end of the day.

I get where you're coming from and I will take it under advisement. This purchase was purely because of the cost being a lot better than the other ones but if it's too much of a risk then it won't be cheaper in the long run in any case.

I mean that guy did 120k miles in a single year, which is a bit excessive but I will look more into it and look for more stories of people buying high mileage Tesla's because I want to know as much as I can.

Yeah, that's what I read up as well. The fact that that one guy has 430k miles on the original battery with over 65% capacity I believe is good evidence of the longevity potential at least. The reason I don't mind too much is the furthest I'd ever travel is 145 miles away, and if this car was at...

Forgot to say but I cannot edit due to it being a new account, but I have never owned an EV before, let alone a Tesla so that's why I am asking these questions. I am wishing to purchase one for the first time and want to make sure I don't get caught out by anything. The reason I was initially...

I'm looking at a Tesla Model 3 2021 Dual Motor LR. It's got 110k miles on it so it's essentially out of warranty, or will be within a year of use. I know that batteries can need to be replaced but I wanted to ask about this. When it comes to the batteries, what are the common reasons they get...
