    Delivery of new X

    Looking for help/advice. Had a text & then e-mail from Tesla today to advise collection date of next Thursday at 5pm from Heathrow for my new X. Although I can’t wait I really don’t want to be trying to get from Gloucester & then in & around Heathrow at 5pm on a Thursday. Is there any way of...

    Hi Can anyone in the UK offer some help? Now waiting for MX to arrive but looking for new electric supplier. Was signed up to Toto but having gone belly up am looking around at new suppliers. It seems a minefield with different standing charges & rates per KWH. Trying to unravel it is doing my...

    Selling current car before or after delivery?

    Hi. The pro is you have your car until the new one turns up. If there’s a delay in delivery of the new car you’re not too bothered The cons are you have to sell yours after. There maybe a delay before you can sell yours thus having extra costs on insurance etc. Also the value of yours will keep...

    Model X Order

    No worries pal. You didn’t screw up anything! Had very similar experiences. Being first full EV had loads of questions, visited the store numerous times & had three test drives before committing! All the staff were really helpful & realised its a massive decision. I hope you love the one you...

    Model X Order

    Crikey I do hope they’re quicker than yours. Have told them I have to have it invoiced by the end of February to coincide with the end of our financial year. Guy in the Tesla store said that’ll be no problem! Hope you enjoy it when it does arrive

    Model X Order

    Hi there. I filled my order in at the Tesla store with the employee so there would be no mistakes. Had a mail today from Tesla saying my car was due early 2020 & trying to persuade me to buy an inventory car.

    Model X Order

    Evening everyone. I’ve done it. Model X long range ordered! Can anyone give me any idea of when I’m likely to hear anything from Tesla? Placed my order over a week ago. When I try to log into the app it says there are no products linked. My account just states they are drawing up my contract...

    Tyre wear & price UK

    Mr AliG. Thanks for the comprehensive reply. Q7 is the diesel. Unfortunately the new one will be petrol so that’s out! By charging where I can I actually average around 80mpg. Impressive for such a big car. BIK is actually 0% from next tax year, 1% & then 2% in years 2 & 3. Tyres on my car are...

    Tyre wear & price UK

    Hi All Looking for some help. Can any UK owner give an idea of tyre wear on UK roads on model X? My tyre fitter also says if you don’t replace originals with Michelin (as originals) Tesla have a bit of a fit if the car goes in for warranty work somehow stating that the faults are down to the...

    Thanks shinytop. I hear what your saying. I hope the range isn’t an issue as I loved the car on the brief 30 minute test drive I’ve already had!

    New EV Purchase

    Thanks Akikiki. I’ve also been advised to pre-heat the car approx 30 minutes before I leave on cold days. Again to save the battery power & use mains power to warm the systems & cabin. If the charge time is what I think it’ll be on my 7kw home charger I’ll have no option than to finish charging...

    New EV Purchase

    Thank you very much for your reply. The Raven is supposed to be around 10% more efficient than yours so hopefully I’ll have no issues. As I’ve said I’ve got one on demo for the day Wednesday. I’m going to “open it up” to 100% just to start with 100% range do my normal run & see what’s left. I...
