    Alternative to the standard Model Y parcel shelf? Its trash

    I have the 2023 version and it seriously restricts what you can see out of the back window. Poor design.

    Added A168 Northallerton so maybe some people might use one (or more) of their 5 votes for that.

    Granny charger

    My sister uses her Granny charger all the time. She does about 150 miles per week if she's lucky. Her set up uses a timer in the plug socket to come on at 0030 and off at 0430 each day for cheap rate (5p). The socket is in the garage and she has a hook on the wall outside with the cable coiled...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    Not sure why but my mate has just done the same as I did a few days ago - gone to www.Goskippy.com and got a really good deal on his new MYLR that he's picking up in a weeks time. Maybe worth other having a look.................. Not saying it will be cheaper but all options are worth exploring...

    Model Y insurance high?

    well, 22 days to delivery today so I went on and "Hey Presto" - the quotes were all substantially lower with all the same details entered as before. I got everything I need for £421.75 - RESULT! Yes, the MYLR insurance is a lot higher than the M3P but I'm OK with this now.

    Is is still possible to speak to Tesla?

    It is bad at present. I made four phone calls on different days last week and each time opted for the call back option. None of these calls have been returned. My final attempt, I called and held the line for 48 minutes before it was answered by a person. It's not good enough and whilst 48...

    Model Y insurance high?

    Funny, after reading your post I did the same with Admiral for my M3P and that was £658, then for the MYLR it was £824 - exactly the same details, low mileage etc. Silly money.

    Model Y insurance high?

    I've been looking for about a week now daily on comparisons sites for insurance for my MYLR when it comes in a couple of weeks time. My M3P insurance is £312 per year and that's the highest it's been ever - the MYLR with exactly the same criteria all through is coming out at £815 as a minimum...

    M3 Frunk

    Used mine TWICE in the three years I've had it! Once to put the cables in and the second time to open it using the new electric opener to try it out. Had a motorised lid opener installed (along with the boot opener) but was a waste of money for the front. Haven't opened it since (and windscreen...

    Just had Tesla on the phone. My collection of the MYLR is booked for the 19th Sept at Bluewater. A text came through to confirm this and says this "will be a low touch collection"...................... what on earth does that mean? Anyone know?

    Wiki UK and Ireland Supercharger Site News

    Shame nothing added again for the North of England. Ideal spot on the A168 as more and more Tesla leaving the M! and travelling across to Teesside/Thirsk area using this road.

    Wiki UK and Ireland Supercharger Site News

    It's a great shame there is still nothing around the A19/A168 area as there a quite a lot of Teslas in that area that I see regularly when travelling. There's a also a lack of charging in the South East although Faversham is coming it's quite out of the way from the coast.

    Model Y quieter ride?

    Thanks Peteski

    Model Y quieter ride?

    Quick question. Looking at the Model YLR, do we think the 19 or 20 inch tyres have the smoothest and quietest ride?

    Please remember there is nothing South of Maidstone................. the Folkestone Superchargers can ONLY be accessed if you are travelling on the Eurostar etc services.

    M3 alarm keeps false triggering. How to stop it?!

    Reporting back. I got my own car back yesterday and returned the loaner. I must say that after driving a Model S for a few days it is not my cup of tea at all. It's obviously a larger car but I don't like the screen and driver screen, far too busy for me. Ditto for the sticks on the streering...

    M3 alarm keeps false triggering. How to stop it?!

    Mine started triggering about 6 weeks ago, more than 10 times a day. Took it back to Dartford, they replaced the internal sensor and wiring. Came home, three days later, started again, same thing, randomly alarming. Made sure Tilt intrusion off, sentry mode off etc but still doing it. They are...

    Octopus Energy, including Intelligent and go

    Just had the invite to join however reading on, whilst I will get two extra hour of cheap charging the day rate increases by 2p per hour. Standing charge is the same. Not a good move for me.

    That screenshot of material is taken from their help site and was not published until early 2020 so you should have your connectivity reinstated.

    I've just had a call from the Service centre about my booking. They are insisting that this is a subscription service and always was. I enlightened the operative telling him about the changes to condition at the end of May/June last year - well after I ordered and paid my deposit for my car...
