It's a lot cheaper to lease a Y than a 3 at the moment!

Just to round this one up, I paid £1 over to the 95 account Friday evening without telling the seller the amount. It was confirmed on the sellers Tesla Finance later in the evening. I paid the balance to Tesla on Saturday when collected the car. A bit tricky with Halifax on a Saturday, but...

Unfortunately Halifax Banking don't confirm Citi Bank accounts. They didn't when I bought the Model 3 two years ago, and they still don't today.

Hi, Hopefully buying a second had Y tomorrow privately, which has outstanding Tesla Finance on it. I want to pay Tesla direct, but just wanted to see if someone could confirm the account number I have been given for Tesla Financial Services. Struggling to get any info from Tesla! The...

Makes no difference if you start a "paid for" charge through the app, it still cuts out after 5 mins. When the 15 minutes runs out on podpoint the charger turns off and the light on the charger goes blue. When mine cuts out the charger light stays green, i.e. on.

Yes, tried the two Button, and the two Button with brake pedal.

Hi My 2022 Model 3 RWD stops charging sfter 5 minutes on 7kw public chargers. It's always 5 minutes!! It started about 10 days ago. Thought I would post in here for ideas before contacting Tesla I have tried at 4 different locations, all of which I have charged at regularly before. I...

Any idea of the location planned for St. Albans?

A better route planner ABRP

Just a quick mention 130kph is about 81mph 140kph is about 87mph

No prob. I initially thought (hoped) the same as you. Currently got a RWD Model 3, and was hoping if/when the SR Y arrives with the structural pack and BYD the range will be a bit more than 430km.

That's because the Germany website is showing the default SR with upgrade alloys, which reduces the WLTP range from 455km to 430km.

Where did you get the info that your new car would be Berlin/BYD? Have you got a VIN yet to confirm Berlin? Thanks

I have some "AutoSocks" that would fit your 255 45 R19 Model Y tyre size. Have a look on AutoSock.co.uk for full info. They are a legally approved option to chains throughout the EU (except Austria apparently!) Much easier and quicker to put on. Just keep them in the car in case. £40 plus...

We have just returned from France/Spain after being away for 31 days (the whole of October). Left our RWD LFP 2022 at 67%, and it was at 63% on our return. I did check the app every few days. Hope that helps!

Some have been on for a few days. Maybe not as popular a choice as LR?

El carro blanco. The white car. Pretty boring, and really only until I could work out a decent name for it, but it has been such since March. We have a place in Spain, and trying to learn the lingo a bit! (El coche blanco doesn't flow off the tongue as easily for those who were wondering😊)

Ignore my initial post, looks like I missed that some countries default to the 20" wheels, and this accounts for the difference. Idiot! 😒

We had our Passat Estate destroyer by hail in Spain about 7 years ago whilst driving. Every panel was dented! 😢 Strangely enough we are very close to where that happend at this exact moment, near Teruel.

Just been reading that the Model Y SR from Germany may be using the BYD LFP blade battery at 55kWh as opposed to the China car with the 60(ish) kWh LFP pouch. The WLTP for Germany, and a handfull of other countries is listed on Tesla.com as 430 km (267 miles). The WLTP for UK and the rest of...

You need deep pockets for FSD. Not worth it in the UK imo

Have a scan through this https://www.themotorombudsman.org/distance-sales-faqs Also chargeback (60 days limit I think) or section 21 with your credit card company.

Just include a reference to UK consumer law, and the relevant section, probably relating to distance selling, which you can quickly google.

Don't think that qualifies as a fixed rate as you can exit at any time with no penalty? Plus you rate is way lower than the price cap. This is taken from the gov website. "If you’re on a fixed tariff If you’re on a fixed tariff at a higher rate caused by recent energy price rises, your...

Bear in mind that if you are on a fixed rate at the moment the new price policy is apparantly actually a discount of 17p per KWh of electric, and 4p per KWh of gas. As I understand this also applies to fixed tariffs. Don't make any rash decisions to come off your fix immediately without...

Check the supercharger status today, at around the time you plan to arrive, for a random study!

I think you will find that what you consider to be rear mud flaps are actually extensions to the front ones.

I've used the one at Heathrow T5 recently, and that one is also 28p. I would have no reason to doubt that the Uxbridge one is priced as shown on the screen.

Got these pending in my cart from Ali Express.

"Joined" earlier today on PAYG👍 How long it will last is a different story!

Thanks for the info👍

The good news is, we have 3 trips from North Devon to the London area this month, so this will be our "go to" on the way there and back. 😂 We are retired, so don't do many regular long journeys. If it doesn't go up in the meantime, 28p is a bonus👍

Probably 28p ish

I think it might be a 72 plate! 👍

At 60p the vat element would be 10p. But your general point is correct, a fair portion is tax, as usual!

It's a Q1 22 RWD car delivered in March. Just hadn't realised that the icon only showed when someone was sat in that seat!

Thanks for all your replies. Thanks for that. Tried just now and when I sat in the passenger seat the icon came on! Great help! 👌👍

Hi all I only have 1 heated seat (driver) showing in bottom bar. The other one is not visible to select and bring down. It was visible briefly a couple of days ago. Have done a soft reset, don't want to do a full yet if there is an easy solution. TIA

The Ali ones look a bit curvier in the spoke. I guess the designs can't vary too much as they have to cover the spoke pattern on the Geminis. Quite like the Ali ones, and cheaper than Rimetrix!

A pointless reply to your pointless reply! Read the thread

I was responding to someone else's comment, I am quite aware of the price thanks!

A or J as an educated guess😉

No, not a clue! It's listed on my V5 as 208kW, which is 283bhp, and is exactly as I expected, having read loads of various forum posts before mine was delivered in March. The 8th VIN letter determines the motor type, in my case this is S, which is the newer hairpin type motor. Last years...

It's 283 bhp, down from 320 last year! 😢

We used a magnetic GB plate on our old car a few times driving down to Spain. No problems whatsoever. Got a new UK one for the 3. Looks very inconspicuous on a white car👍

Atlantic Reach Holidays is very near that point. There is a rapid and a few 7kW chargers there, so maybe Tesla have come to an agreement with the site owners!

It's shown as a Long Range on the Gov Mot history.

As a standard, day to day, charging option on road trips, most definitely YES! As a very occasional emergency option when desperate to charge probably NO! That pricing would certainly limit my general usage to zero though. The odd person using superchargers in an emergency isn't going to...

That would certainly put people off..... over £1 per kW🤔

Someone in The States painted his Gemini covers, and then vinyl wrapped the wheel edges to lose the silver ring!😊
