I've written code to do exactly this in fact. It's not too complicated if you're a programmer.

I'm on lease and I asked the leasing company to create a second account with access to the car and they did.

I'm a similar weight and 6ft6, I find the model 3 to be fine, and now lease one. I find that the ability for the steering wheel to retract in easy entry and then entering by sitting first and then swiveling my legs in works really well. The leg space is amazing, it's a really comfy car for me...

Just to add, got my 2021 Model 3 MIC, I'm a larger guy and tall, and I find the seat is fine.

I had to report minor defects to Tesla in order to cover myself against the leasing company. Luckily the SC were pretty good and most of the issues were within spec and they said they'd record it for the leasing company. The car is pretty much perfect, but we're put in that awkward situation.

Had to drive to SC yesterday so was pleased to see I was in the trial. Dumb summon is great. SC parked our car in between two other cars and I was worried about hitting another car, so summoned it out, worked perfectly. Auto lane change is okay, it's a bit annoying though, from what I can...

I went with them because they were the cheapest at the time, but to be honest I've had a great experience with them and would happily recommend them

I assume lease people are out? Big shame, would have liked to have played with it

I find they work pretty well

Both me and my partner can book service appointments from our apps with separate accounts on a lease vehicle.

I do yes, it was a faff with tesla directing me to santander and santander redirecting me to Tesla. In the end I got gateway 2 lease to add my partners account.

Hey, So picked up our MIC Model 3 yesterday and took it for a spin to calibrate the autopilot and test it so we can report defects in the 7 day window. Now I understand that regen dots mean that the battery is cold (or full), and I fully understand that, but after driving it for 30 or so...

We've played with both since we had the car yesterday, we prefer chill mode because it's more forgiving with pedal fluctuations and makes for a smoother ride. We found standard makes us feel a bit sick as any pedal movement either accelerates or starts regen breaking instantly and so it's a...

Sorry, 10k a year at 3 years, with 3 months down

I got a decent price through gateway2lease using Santander. LR White PCH for ~£575

I got this while driving down dark roads with no lighting. Went away when entering a better lit area

Yep

They kinda just left it and then left. Made a note of a few oddities which I'll report when I have access to the tesla app. Still awaiting my tesla app access, they told me I'd have it within 4 hours but it's 6 hours plus and still not got my app access which is frustrating! Otherwise, love...

Getting mine delivered tomorrow (Tues), no idea what time, anywhere from 8am to 9pm I think!

But aha, I'm not obsessed, in fact I hate cleaning cars and until now have just used automatic car washes, so not sure that applies to me :p. I'm looking for the easiest way to keep the car clean without risking damage. I'm thinking a pressure washer with the foam bath every few weeks and then...

To those that clean at home, how do you do it? Jet with foam then a jet clean?

Ooh you got a link to the post?

I got the price as shown personally.

Who's your leasing company?

Who's gonna be getting theirs first? Ours is arriving on Tuesday, so I can report back if noone has posted on Monday.

If you're leasing, would this be classed as fair wear and tear? Seems harsh if not if it's not our issue!

Heard back from leasing company: Vehicle inspection, please check around the vehicle for any paint chips, scratches or discolouration and the windscreen for any chips, if you are happy with this please accept the vehicle – if there are any of these please advise the driver to log so Tesla can...

Yeah getting delivered on Tuesday. In my case I'm asking for clarification from the leasing company because the finance documents say if the vehicle is unsatisfactory in any way I should reject it. That seems a bit extreme to me if its something that I can report and be fixed! Like you said I...

Agree, I found Gateway2Lease was the cheapest for a PCH, and still haven't seen a price beating mine (LR AWD White 2021 - ~£575/month with 3 months upfront)

When I was 21 I needed to insure a old yaris and that was over 2k, so yeah no surprise a tesla is more, I'm surprised it's that low really

Hi, Yes I'd tell gateway2lease just before you order - because Tesla are a bit funny about adding it on after you've ordered. In my case gateway2lease did get the referral on after I've ordered, but that doesn't seem to be common

What I don't get is why it's seemingly moving back and forth rather than anchoring

I already have my reg assigned as it was in the finance document from the leasing company - 2nd march delivery

Do we think this incoming batch are likely to have a heated steering wheel? Really would like one!

LRW3F7EB All the march deliveries are all China made I think

Interesting. I have an "E" in my LR. Which stands for "electric" which apparently is the Lith Ion battery

What a twist! Haha. So all model 3s for March delivery must be on GLOVIS CENTURY then?

Had my final finance documents from my leasing company today complete with my registration number! All signed and sent back, and I tried to finish insurance with Churchill but it wouldn't recognise my reg number, so rang them up and signed up to my policy over the phone. All done and paid for...

Indeed, but you know how it is, a car full of empty spaces, and then someone parks next to you and you can't get in the car

Realised that in my quotes I put myself down as registered keeper while leasing company will be it, so went for another quote. Shot up £150! (and changing it back to me as keeper didn't change it) what a con. I'm just going to use my saved quite of £500 odd and change the keeper. Worst case...

Personally I think there are going to be times that I enjoy the performance of the car, and there are times I want a simple drive. Driving on a motorway is quite dull usually, so autopilot is great there, being in stop start traffic is also quite dull so it could be good there too (awaiting my...

I can see summon (note not smart summon, which is pointless at the moment) being handy for getting out of a parking space without worrying about scratching the car or the next car

Churchill seems to be the cheapest for me - £508 with no voluntary excess (could raise the excess this but compulsory is already high enough). Protects no claims, and includes legal protection. LR Model 3

I was thinking that as I'm on octopus agile it might not be a bad idea to get a battery to charge when it's cheap, and then potentially add solar in the future. What do you folks think?

Yeah I'm not overly hopeful either, but worth an enquiry

Interesting.. Me and my partner are very interested in using summon in order to get the car to come out of a car parking space as we're paranoid about hitting other cars, it's a lease though, I wonder what the cost would be to add it. £3400 ÷ 36 is £94 a month which is too much imo, but if it...

Haha same here, got the day booked off too.

I'm just quoting Elon, although he has a history of not delivering. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1312253928667410432?s=19

I'm apparently the only bigger guy here, admittedly I've only test drove for around 3 hours as my car hasn't arrived yet, but I found the seats comfortable enough. I'm also tall and find the head room brilliant, in some cars my head hits the roof

I'd try again with a different rep, I've generally had helpful reps
