    I guess that the majority of the delivery costs relate to shipping from Shanghai, with only a small proportion for dock to delivery point.

    Model Y UK Delivery

    For what it’s worth, update from West Drayton Sales Centre today on the steps towards Y deliveries in UK. Still no official indication of when deliveries will start. Opening of order page a few weeks ago was stage 1. Stage 2 is expected in January - which will be the opening of the Financing...

    Model S Refresh UK Delivery - hopes raised and then dashed

    I received a text from Tesla yesterday asking me to upload the details of my trade-in vehicle in connection with my Model S LR order. This briefly raised the hope that, despite what we have read, there would be some UK deliveries in early 2022. I checked with the Sales Centre who could not...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    I visited Westfield today to look at the Y on site - LHD Performance in Red with black seats. For what it's worth the Sales Adviser was pretty clear that no deliveries would be made in January but was more hopeful for February or March.

    I wanted to use Adderstone about 10 days ago and was seriously inconvenienced as it was closed. At that time the problem might have been due to Storm Arwen. I am not sure what the real problem is but safest plan is to assume closed until we can get positive conformation that it has re-opened.

    Go Zero complimentary Tesla Taxi

    Yes. This was my experience too. Very interesting conversation with the driver who drives Teslas for a living. I am sure that GO Zero are going to be big.

    Mr M, my impression is that there will be more ships for UK deliveries in Q4 2021 than in any previous Q. Do your (meticulous, I’m sure) records confirm this?

    Charge place scotland since takeover - all fine?

    I had an old CYC RFID card but was advised that this would not work after the changeover. I registered again and was sent a new CPS RFID card which has worked with no problems.

    Chargeplace Scotland - App or RFID card?

    I have returned from my short trip to Scotland having successfully used the new CPS RFID card at two different chargers. I recognise that this is a small sample but nonetheless satisfactory. I have a longer trip to Scotland in September and will be trying out more chargers on that occasion.

    Chargeplace Scotland - App or RFID card?

    Based on my experience it IS automatic that they send you and RFID card once you have successfully set-up a new account and DD. This is not clear from the information on their website … but it is what happened to me.

    Prince Charles Tesla for sale

    The car is over-priced in my view. Description says "Self Driving" but it has only the basic AP software rather than FSD or even EAP.

    Debit card removed from Tesla account

    I had a similar message. I had two cards registered on my account; one of them expired but both of them were "greyed out" and deemed unusable. I was, however, able to resolve the issue be easily adding the replacement for the expired card.

    Scotland road trip

    LFP battery, charge to 100% each night?

    When the battery reaches whatever level is deemed to be 100% (irrespective of whether that is actually 1000% or only 98%) the battery management system will not allow any more electrons to be added to the battery - whether by a plugged in charger or by the onboard regen charger.

    Although CYC have an arrangement with Charge Place Scotland I have zero out of about ten successful use of the CYC card at charging stations in Scotland.

    Collection Experience - Tesla Heathrow (West Drayton)

    As far as I know the availability of loaners cars is very limited. For this reason, if you need one ask in advance; just turning up on the day and asking for one is likely to lead to disappointment.

    Model S/X CCS Adaptor - Experiences?

    As I understand it, this is not quite as simple as "just buy the CCS adaptor and plug it in". Some modifications are required to the car's firmware to allow it to accept a CCS-type charge. For this reason it requires Tesla technicians to do the work. Schedule a service appointment on the App...

    Is it bad to leave Powerwall 2 at 100% SoC?

    I own a Model S and am very clear that it is not a good idea to leave the car battery at 100% SoC for extended periods. Is the same true for a Powerwall 2? Will it shorten the battery life? Advice from more experienced Powerwall owners would be appreciated.
