    UK Pricing piss take

    I understand that with private healthcare, it’s the exact same in this country too. Work privately vs NHS to get paid more. Another flaw you’re failing to see is the “it’s only 72p difference.” When it’s actually a 37% markup. That’s part of the issue here. People don’t see how it all adds up...

    UK Pricing piss take

    Sorry, but I think you're way off here. As important as it is, the economy and the job market is much greater than the IT industry. As with any job, if you're making money, the company will pay you to keep making money in any competitive market. Tech makes money. Investors want more. High...

    Model Y MY23 with USS?

    I’m used to a firm ride, and I didn’t even find my Model 3 performance suspension troublesome/an issue. Suppose I’ll have to see how this goes but so far so good. Not sure how to confirm if I have it or not (I know it’s unlikely)

    Model Y MY23 with USS?

    Hi guys. Here’s my situation… Just returned my Model 3 Performance for a LR Y. Ordered Feb 23 via my work salary sacrafice scheme. Advised as in stock but unable to take delivery until March. Delivery company delay has resulted in a delivery today (03/05/2023). So I was passed my VIN around 4...

    “New car” 6 months old. Any concerns?

    So long story short. Ordered a Model Y through Salary Sacrafice. Was listed as a special offer (cheaper price) but was advised I must take delivery by March 2023. All sorted but delivery company issues arisen. Can’t be delivered until 3rd may. No issue on my end. Had my VIN/reg confirmed...

    Wiki Everything you wanted to know about Intelligent Octopus But Were Afraid To Ask

    Just a heads up guys it’s now working. Manage to connect my Model 3 to the app and switch today. You need to update the octopus app on though prior to this. It must include the fix we needed for the API.

    [UK] 2023 Orders to Delivery for M3 and MY and personal shipping related questions

    I’ve ordered via my salary sacrifice but awaiting my payroll to approve. MYLR. Been made to believe it’s probably already “on order” as it was listed as a special offer. I’ve been advised I MUST collect by 31/03/2023. The only problem is I can’t return my car until 26/03/2023. Will it be a...

    New salary sacrifice prices

    Yeah that’s insurance/tyres/service requests included. 7,000 miles/year (I only commute 4 miles). It’s a very good deal if I’m honest. Obviously other deductions on top (BIK) and tax/pensions savings vary for the true net cost to each individual.

    New salary sacrifice prices

    Any NHS Fleet Solutions users here? They have some Y on offer, which are lower than they were prior to price drop. Only things is these listed before the price drop was announced. Wonder if it’s worth ordering or holding off until the recalculated price is listed too. Gross before savings is...

    [UK] Would you buy another tesla

    I’ve just ordered a YLR to replace my 3P. I was all set for a BMW iX1 XDrive m-sport with Tech/pro pack. The Y was around £130 extra/month on top of the iX1 and very similar specs (except range). For the same price (salary sacrifice) I’m now getting a Y with around 100 extra miles per charge...

    MY23 changes - asking for some guidance.

    Thanks guys. I’m aware they have no real “function” as yet but I do think they look nicer (darker). I think for the price difference I’m just gunna stick an order in. Thanks for the info 👍🏻

    MY23 changes - asking for some guidance.

    So I’ve been offered a 2023 MY LR with an ETA of March via my salary sacrifice. My M3P is going back around then so it lines up well. Just a question, as I can’t see it, what can I expect? I take it it’s China built? Will it have matrix headlights I know I’m going to lose USS To be fair, my...

    UK 2022 Model 3 Long Range Waiting room

    I have a 3P and through my car work scheme it will be up for renewal in March. I love the car, but a Y would be more practical, oh and the sports tyres proved dreadful in the snow. advised by the ordering team they can submit orders and then delay delivery by refusing a delivery (to the next...

    Price hike

    My 3P is up for renewal through work scheme in March. I’ve confirmed I can submit an order today, and if delivery occurs too early they can delay delivery for next batch (eg, wait for the next quarte). Might mean after March if deliveries slip… but I can lock in the price today. Y LR just ordered.

    Another quick fix is rename your car to “Patsy”. Let it play the monty Easter egg then change the name back. Quicker than a reboot/changing the language twice.

    New windscreen fitted - Model 3.

    Trust me, auto glass won’t allow this. I confirmed this over the phone with Tesla and then autoglass refused to accept this. I then drove from autoglass in Leeds to the Leeds SC. Was told to simply press the button and it’s done. I left Leeds SC, few days later,phone call from Autoglass...

    Disc brake significant grooves - performance only?

    So, I’ve read multiple issues online but I think I have SIGNIFICANT grooves on my discs. I popped into Leeds SC yesterday just to ask. They didn’t assess the car, but the lovely lady said “do you have a performance with red brake callipers”. Apparently it’s a currently rising issue, and they’re...

She waited in the car as it was raining. Usually, I leave my door slightly ajar, as I took my phone with...
