    Build quality

    I doubt Tesla will get close to the big guns anytime soon. Build quality is miles off IMO. You can easily get sucked into thinking that it's close but take your time and look around properly, it's way way off.

    How come Model 3 Used are £8,000 - £10,000 more expensive than Brand New?

    You'd have to be soft in the head to pay £41.5k for the SR+ :confused:

    Model S Loner

    Stopped at Eurocentral on the way and way back. Did that gap no issues. Drove very relaxed both legs and found on the way back the noted range against the battery was only 2 miles off. Very very good in my books. Happy driver all in all I'd say.

    Model S Loner

    I did. All in all I’d say I’m won over by the Model S. It’s a great cruiser and mega comfortable, quiet and refined on the roads. The 100D that I got was different to the 85 trim level I think. Also, this one was in better condition. The inside of the 3 is a nicer thing to touch if that makes...

    If I concentrate I think I can pull this off :D

    Model S Loner

    The supercharger at the airport is a bit out of the way for me on the way to Oban. Might be best for me to stop at Eurocentral and top up. Also return via this route for a stop to charge. How do I charge at a supercharger? Never used one and it’s free on the S :)

    Model S Loner

    Another update. Phoned to ask about my car but they haven't looked at it yet as it was a drop off rather than scheduled service (understandable). I did raise the issue of the 90D range and I have arranged to collect a 100D tomorrow which I'm happy about as it gives a bit more reassurance for...

    Model S Loner

    No idea mate but it's a 16 plate. I'm not very upto date on knowing model S spec and generation dates. I do like it though.

    Model S Loner

    Little update on the Model S. The car is better on the motorway than the model 3, no doubt about it. If the S had the interior comfort of the new seats that would be a serious mile muncher! Quite like the S but missing my 3:(

    Model S Loner

    Ok, an update to my rant earlier as on reflection it may sound like I’m knocking the Model S which isn’t the case. The S as a car is nice, quiet and the ride is refined. Ride may even be better than the 3 or maybe it’s the size which makes the car feel more refined. Probably the same way in...

    Model S Loner

    Thanks for taking the time to explain. Looks like I'll be hooking up to the cabin for some miles over the weekend. I was hoping to try a round trip in my LR, optimistic i know but wanted to see if it would do it. Had it up to Ballater over the weekend however exuberant driving over the...

    Model S Loner

    Driving to work this morning and my Model 3 goes into limp mode (new car under 2000miles). Suggests getting out and re-entering the car but it didn’t fix anything, soft reset tried as well. Car suggests scheduling a service… Called Tesla and great service over the phone, took the car along as...

    Roof Bars

    No tow hitch for me unfortunately. Can't believe I'm about to pay £430 for roof bars :confused:. Unreal, world has gone mad.

    Roof Bars

    I'll give this a try, thanks. Do Tesla make you wait on the bars or have people had a good turnaround time from point of order?

    Roof Bars

    Thanks everyone :) I'm planning on seeing if Tesla can fit them for me. Can't imagine the hassle I’ll have should the worst happen and I need to call and try make the point of tolerances being out as the reason my roof is cracked. £430 for a set of roof bars is F*****g ridiculous, don’t care...

    Roof Bars

    Hello everyone, I’m looking to get a set of Tesla roof bar for my Model 3 as I can't see any other manufactures out there. To be honest I’m pi***d off at having to pay the ridiculous price (assuming £400 going by the US proice) for the Tesla bars however it is what it is I guess. Anyway, does...

    Cabin temp vs seat heaters with 3 passengers?

    I don't think too much about this. At the end of the day, it's a car. If you're cold, put the heating on untill you're not :). The car isn't much use if it can't keen you warm.

    Model 3 Phone calling

    Managed to call the girlfriend last night using voice control, big grin :D. My 2014 Ford Focus still worked better though.

    Model 3 Phone calling

    I push the button and the little icon comes up, it listens then ignores me :( It's because I'm Scottish isn't it

    Model 3 Phone calling

    Side question to this, how do you call using voice commands? Worked perfect in my focus but can't get the Model 3 to call someone from my phone contacts :confused:

    Delivery…..Early

    Chargeplace Scotland is indeed my best friend at the moment. Got a charger at the swimming pool 15 mins walk from the house and a PodPoint at tesco 25 mins walk from the house. I combine my charging walks with Walking our new dog :). Got a CCS charger at the library close to work as well, 2 min...

    Delivery…..Early

    Hi all, Just an update on this. Fogging has gone, no isses since collection. Likes Comfort - it's a nice way to get around Speed - it's a strange kind of fast. I'm used to superbikes so not the fastest thing I've travelled in but this is a different type of speed i feel. It's good. Sound...

    Delivery…..Early

    Well, had the car out for a drive last night and well impressed I mist say. Only complaint at the moment was fogging inside the car, not sure if this was due to the car just being washed or whatever, if it continues I'll complain. The car arrived in the country the day before I collected. Very...

    Model 3 LR AWD - Blue with black trim Very good point, I'll be sure to inspect well. Registered with Charge Place Scotland so will be going for a decent drive later I think.

    Was expecting delivery end Jan – start Feb however got home to an email last night “are you excited to collect your new car tomorrow at 12:30”…..o_O Both good and bad news, I’ve no way of making the collection time due to work meetings however rescheduled for 15:30. I’ll see about getting an...

    Cybertruck unveil (CYBRTRK)

    I feel like I don't want this to sell as it's horrible from the front however I think this will sell. People seem to have Tesla blindness (where they forgive Tesla for faults when they'd slate any other manufacturer for the same faults). If Ford, BMW or any other brought something like this to...

    VW ID.3 Prices released for Ireland, SHOCKING!!!!!

    I was looking forward to the VW range however disapointed based on that. I like the exterior however the interior isn't up to scratch when costs are taken into account. Also, first post on here:). Hello from Edinburgh, expecting a 3LR in blue late Jan / Early Feb 20.
