    Is there dislike towards EV drivers in the UK?

    I don't think most road user's have any issues with EV cars, I think most would like one. when the price comes down to the average family who buy small cars for what there needs are and I mean prices come down, small family cars can be £15k for petrol and for some that's all they can spend. The...

    Seems my lost miles have returned, but says they will run out on the 31/5 which we will be lucky to be out of lock down by then, so again they will disappear with out use as not exactly planning any long trips in the next months.

    Lost free super charger miles

    Why not just leave them there? let people use them when needed instead of taking up supercharger time just to use up the free supercharger miles before they get wiped out. then people on genuine trips wont have to que like at south mims so often. and people will not feel the need to get the free...

    Service center experience: trading my 3 in for a Mercedes

    Although buying a tesla might contribute 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% towards climate change, there are far greater forces polluting the planet and its eco system, plastics made from oil, massive ships burning tons of fuel per mile. let alone all the radio active waste dumped...

    Service center experience: trading my 3 in for a Mercedes

    I can feel the hate for a guy who is only posting his experience of a SC. if he feels he would be better off going back to ICE then whats the issue with all the negative comments. Its so easy to slate someone because you never experienced the same. some have had bad experience with ICE dealers...

    Model 3 funk wont open

    I will let service do it, if it needs new parts then so be it. its only been opened twice since I had it. still poor though, tesla should be more on the ball with this issue. as you don't want it coming up down the motorway.

    Tesla charger install

    I have seen many things, some out right dangerous, nails used as fuses, kitchens run on nothing but spurs from cut in junction box's that have so many wires in them the tops are taped on because it cant be screwed on any more. The problem is older houses were never designed electrically for all...

    Model 3 Performance vs Model S 75D

    Having both the model S and Model 3 and switch between both regular I can say that the model 3 is more nibble, and goes around corners much better at speed. for ride comfort the S is much better, also it has much more space in the rear for passengers, especially if you are a tall driver or front...

    Is it really worth it?

    Its very worth it, but like any new car before you sign for hand over, make sure you check your new car over. don't let your heart of wanting one rule your head if its saying reject the car. All car makers can get defects or damage in transport, thing is tesla cant keep up with demand and they...

    This dude embedded a Tesla key in his hand to unlock his Model 3

    So if he ever changes his car he needs new surgery for a new key, bit of a stupid idea and having to place the back of your hand that way round to unlock is not so comfy, palm on would be better, but phone key better unless you lose your phone I guess.

Thanks for the welcome, and yes not quite as spacious but still big enough and not such a road hog on quite country lanes, IE: not as wide, uk B roads can be quite narrow, a few times...

    any model 3 owners had a new battery fitted with some fault that occurred since ownership?

    Having had my P85D for a while and enjoying that car, now with 97k miles on it. I decided to get a model 3 M3P in white. I still kept my P85D as well. The M3P is fun to drive also, much more nimble than the model S and both feel just as fast as each other. My model S had a new battery fitted at...
