To be fair to Ionity, they have not reduced the top line prices in around half of the countries in the table. The new "Passport Power" is a considerable price drop since it brings the price per Kw to lower than Tesla in many locations. Whilst Ionity network has not got great coverage in the...

Yes, completely agree!

I couldn't log in on my Model 3 Insurance, so I thought I would try it on my Etron GT, with very low expectations. My insurer on this vehicle is currently Admiral. My policy ends in mid February next year. When you log in you have the option to add someone temporarily or permanently. I dutifully...

In July we will be making our annual road trip to Southern Spain from our home in Cheshire. Normally just my self and my son go in the car and the wife flies out to join us. In the past I have always done all the driving but I would really like my son to share some of the driving with me. He is...

Bet it was a cinch wasn't it.

Have you tried completely closing the App and then re-opening it.

In relation to your HV battery coolant heater failure, mine failed too in December. Unfortunately, I was out of warranty on my MS and so it cost over £1,000 to repair. That was early December. Later in December I saw a YouTube Video mentioning something along the lines of a sofware update having...

Yes they have tyres, with plenty of tread (I could get more precise mm if you are serious about them). I tend to put these slipsteam 19's on over each winter then revert to the 21's in summer. No idea what they are worth but probably happy to take 20% under whatever they go for on ebay. PM me if...

I'm not technical enough to specifically know the answer to your question, but from experience of moving to non Tesla wheels in the past, you have to be extremely careful about the fit. Many wheels simply do not work. I have a spare set of great condition 19" silver slipstream original Tesla...

So I called in at Flint Supercharger today. Two non Teslas charging, both with “wrong side” charger location on their cars meaning 2 vehicles using up 4 chargers. Other 4 occupied, so unable to charge. A glimpse of the shape of things to come. Oh joy.

And with 6k of free supercharging...if you can move quickly a tempting offer.

Personally, when viewing the Ioniq 6 in real life after having seen the pictures I felt it looked better 'in real life'. Had a look at the Volvo EX30 after seeing some mentions here. Have to say the price seems to be incredibly competitive, but I really just could not have that very 'boxy'...

In view of the price of public charging, arriving home on 6% was a perfect outcome.

This rather good looking Model 3 competitor hasn't had many mentions on this thread:

I agree with you. The question is poorly worded and based on the false premise that the (registered) keeper and owner are the same. EDIT After posting I noticed a subsequent post has noted answering “no” does then actually break down the split between owner and keeper.

There is alot of bad information being stated on this thread regarding what constitutes the Registered Keeper of a vehicle. The reason any or all of you struggling with insurance quotes is bacause you are stating you are NOT the keeper of a vehicle when you are. Here are the absolute stone...

I don't know. I don't think so. Only the existing owner of a Tesla is able to view the service history they have direct with Tesla within the App via: Service > History. You can then drill down to the detailed invoice for the work done. Once the car is re-registered to a new owner the history...

When buying a Tesla, if you are interested in any service work done with Tesla, then ask to see the owners App, go into "Service" and History. This will show things done during their ownership period.

Absolutely, some breathtaking examples of YouTubers willing to wilfully place on record some wilfully stupid acts and arguments and examples includes: 1. The MacMaster - this guy owns a Taycan and spends every video saying how bad EV's are 2. Geoff Buys Cars - just a good old fashion ICE car...

I have a SolarEdge system - Solar PV with Battery. Have had the system little over 4 years. Last week the inverter broke and is unrepairable, so SolarEdge have agreed to replace under (10 year) warranty. Afew worrying issues surround this, first of which is why are their products failing so...

I'm suspecting there is a massive down turn in demand for vehicles in general. The new 23 plate has been out for nearly a month now, and I have barely seen any. I'm thinking the downturn is going to be very serious in the coming months. Especially right now as utility bills are landing on...

I admire your tact. I would call it an absolute cluster****

I just thought I would get a trade in estimate on my wife's M3P which we bought new in April 2020. Received the figure today (16/03/2023) £28,100. Ouch. Had a quick look at the price Tesla are reselling on inventory used, and there are several (in White, same as ours) for around £39k. Double...

I would take that £35,800 as fast as you can if I were you. On autotrader there are loads of 2020 M3P's in the low £30k's price so that is looking rather generous to me.

Since it's only 3 years old I would simply put it through for MOT. End of the day if there's anything wrong your car should be telling you. If the car doesn't (and it's major) the MOT people will fail you or give an advisory so I can't see much to be gained by any type of "service" pre MOT.

On the subject of weird supercharger layouts, last summer I visited Sagunto charger near Valencia in Spain. There have been 8 chargers installed there, but they have put them too close together (4 opposite 4) so they have not been able to open 4 of the 8 chargers. Now that was a genuine mess up!

After some getting to understand what's going on, you can see there is a certain beautiful logic to it. Give it a busy period and it has equal potential to turn into an absolute cluster***k. Especially if non Teslas with other random charger locations are added in the mix.

I have a Zappi too. I have it set to 00.30 to 04:30 for charging on Eco ++. However, I have found it easier to simply set the Tesla App to timed charge at 00:30 in which case you can just leave the Zappi on FAST charge. What you do need to do, however is to set the car to stop charging +40% from...

Yes that is correct for the MYLR The MYP was reduced by £8k (£67,990 down to £59,990)

I would be interested to hear the observations of anyone who regularly drives both Model S and Model Y in terms of how the ride comfort and cabin noise for each compares. In particular how well suited is the Y for long road trips compared to the S from the point of view of cabin noise and ride...

Maybe I'm just being a bit cynical here but it seems to be a bit of a conincidence to have both a TPMS issue within 24 hours of collection plus a punctured tyre. I'm sensing something wasn't right with that tyre before you collected the car.

Having returned from a trip at the weekend from Cheshire to Scotland,in that trip alone I have seen two extremes; Favourite - Eurocentral, Glasgow Loads of chargers, plenty available. Hotel Dakota adjacent is very nice. Very pleasant experience. Least Favourite - Tebay For the first time in...

My wife also has a 2020 M3P, so we would also be interested in the answer to this question. A friend took delivery of the new MY LR a few days ago and took me for a drive yesterday. I noticed the interior cabin sound is much improved (i.e. reduced in the MY)...so I'm hopeful this may also apply...

The purchase invoice must be in the name of the company purchasing the vehicle (to claim the tax advantages). The V5 is not relevant to claiming the AIA. The (V5) registered keeper is the person responsible for the vehicle, its maintenance, roadworthiness and the recipient of communications from...

I have a 2018 Model S 75D. Wife has 2020 M3P. When I drive the wife's M3P 3 major differences noted: 1. Cabin noise in M3P much worse (louder) than Model S. 2. M3P suspension noticeably firmer. You really feel the bumps. 3. M3P wins only on brute 0-60 performance.

Ah I see I did not realise there are 6 hours rather than 4 off peak with this other tarriff. My apologies.

Your calculation isn't quite correct here, as the additional 20kw should be calculated at 21.76p giving total cost of £8.55. However, agree with your overall general point that the main rate being 28% below the new Go rate will potentially mean Flexible will be a better option (depending on...

Did you tell your insurance company about the change to a yoke? Do they need to know? I guess this ties in with the oft asked question about what constitutes a modification...

Agreed. If I knew how to retitle / edit the title I would. Maybe admin could just close the thread.... Thanks to all for contributing to solving that the issue is the unfortunate way Octopus issue their renewal invite.

Looks like the question is why would they invite me to renew to a tarriff I'm not on when I could simply renew to my existing Go tarriff. Very odd.

The only options they are offering in the renewal seems to be "Super Green", "Fixed", or "Flexible" - which I quoted. I'm presuming that this means Go that you have mentioned is not something I can renew to? I'm baffled.

Octopus have just invited me to renew my tarriff. Some huge increases in cost. Current Tarriff: Standing 25.00p, Day 14.63p/kw, Night 5p/kw New Tarriff: Standing 23.58p, Day 22.00p/kw, Night 14p/kw (Flexible Octopus) This means the cost of putting 30kw into your vehicle overnight...

have had the same issue here. Sold my old Model S around a month ago. Yesterday received one notification of a window open, and a second one that charging had stopped. When I 'tap' on the notification on the phone it says (something like) "that vehicle is no longer in your Tesla account". Annoying.

Don't take your foot off the brake until you see the hold symbol lit will solve it. Sometimes on slopes I find it will not engage and you must keep you foot on the brake.

M3P was done at GFUK Autodesign 13, The Arena, Bromborough, CH62 3AE. Model S was done at Ultimate Tint, Unit A2-A7, Evans Easyspace, Deeside, CH5 2JZ Both did excellent jobs, very good friendly service. I have no connection to either. M3P cost around £200, Model S around £250.

I have had both our Model S and M3P tinted. Model S is from recollection 17% and M3P is 20%. It is a noticeable difference. I have found with the M3P it is very dark when you look in the rear view mirror. A bit too dark for my liking. On our M3P I have done only the half back windscreen. It...

I would say a word of caution on "inventory" vehicles. Tesla has improved the description of "inventory" vehicles, so most described as "in transit" could be anywhere from dockside LA, at sea, or dockside UK (or the equivalent from other manufacturing location(s). Those that have a location...

I would just like to point out that "ridiculous acceleration acceleration" is NOT a typo error :cool:
