    Inventory or Custom Order?

    No there shouldn’t be any difference unless they are shipping the 3s directly from China which apparently have better build quality! All will be brand new unless stated pre-owned

    Can Tesla UK increase new car cost on existing order?

    Model 3 inventory - free supercharging?

    10,000 miles a year divide by 300 miles per full charge = 33 charges x 75kw battery size @ 26p per kWh = £643.50p supercharging cost assuming only supercharging and around £99 if you use home charging at 4p per kWh. Supercharger | Tesla UK I've sent you a PM

    then it makes sense to take advantage of the offer if it matches your original spec and colour

    Model 3 inventory - free supercharging?

    Personally I would go with a newer model with doubled insulated glass and motorised boot struts plus fewer other minor changes. The value of 1 years supercharging might be a couple hundred pounds only. Also if you move energy provider to someone like octopus go tariff the cost of electricity is...

    Tesla pecking order

    5 years ago buying a Tesla, the early adopter owners and staff were a really friendly bunch. Now that it's attracted the drivers from the sportier marques and opened up the buying experience to everyone. The entitled, rude, mouthy owners will always be there with any brand.

    Tesla pecking order

    NO it's not like most Tesla owners. This guy sounds like a pompous prick! sorry you had to deal with that. Most early owners are fairly well off and all that I've met are very humble

    New M3LR delivered - some questions...

    sounds like most of these white marks are leftover residue from polishing and good pressure wash cleaning and wipe with microfibre should get rid of them albeit Tesla should have done this before handover. If you are a bit upset tell them and they will detail it again (properly)

    1) can’t comment on the specifics. Call the sales team to clarify. 2) the trade in values are lower. Have a check on WeBuyAnyCar too and see if you are getting a fair offer
