    Buying advice - New 3 or Used S

    Quite a range of views here, and some heated views on driving between Aberdeen and the Alps. Like most of the Brits that I know that have made the Alps into their home, I am pretty used to getting into my car and driving back to the UK a few times a year, I probably do the return journey to...

    Buying advice - New 3 or Used S

    OK, so I have looked at costs, it looks like without free supercharging the journey will cost me about £50 each way, so I am looking at perhaps £800 to £900 a year on charging up for that to and from work usage.

    Buying advice - New 3 or Used S

    Hi Everyone I am new here, so please be patient with me. I have tried reading through a lot of the threads already and I still have not really managed to crystalise my thoughts on this one. I am looking at buying a Tesla and cant decide whether to buy a new model 3 or a used model S. If I go...
