Hello, Wondering if I can get some advice, I currently have a Model 3 Long Range through Knowls Fleet as a NHS Salary Sacrifice and pay £450 (after deductions) for 17,000 miles a year. When renewing the price has gone up to around £580 a month for 14,000 miles in part due to insurance and the...

Hello Everyone, I have a salary sacrifice model 3 long range and pretty happy with it, the build quality is suspect but performance and comfort are good (in my opinion) I’m just wondering what else is around? I quite like the look of the BMW I4 but performance and specification aren’t as good...

Hello, I'm wondering if you guys can help, I've read most of this post and to be frank its at the limit of my understanding. A colleague has given me some advice around Solar but I would like to pick your brains and get the groups help if I may. The current situation is: Just come of a very...

Hi Everyone, Wondering if anyone can help, I had a service booked in for Friday as a home visit and no one showed. I called for an update and was told someone would call me back, didn’t hear back called yesterday told someone else like call me back and haven’t heard (theme going!) Today when...

Hello, Wonder if I can pick the brains of everyone. I’m looking to get a charger in our new build property. I have been speaking with Elecology who seem pretty good to date. They have recommended two potential models Ohme £638 and a Hypervolt £730 In my opinion the Hypervolt is slightly better...

Another problem this time with an error message? Is it just me? Has anyone seen this before?

Thanks everyone, I did a restart of the car, phone and anything else I could think off! After deleting the App and restarting the car, reinstalling the App we seem to be good to go!

Morning, I went to put the car in charge last night and couldn’t get in using the App, since then the app doesn’t load, just brings up a black screen with the Tesla logo. I have tried deleting and re-installing obviously this is a major problem as I use my phone as the key. Any thoughts or...

M Morning, * Touch wood* I have not managed to do anything to the Tesla yet, but before the M3 I had an Audi through Knowls and the insurance excess was £100 *no quibble* I was told it remained the same with the Tesla and the insurance is unaffected. found them very easy to deal with and could...

Are you with Knowles my man?

Hi Gareth, have you got anywhere with this? I’m in Ely and can’t seem to decide which charger to go with? Thanks

Evening all, Car is going back to Milton Keynes Monday with a view to ‘paint’ will let you know the update. Gareth

Happy to keep you updated about mine, be handy to know if you get anywhere as well. Might be we can learn from each other’s ‘case’ I’m going to be pushing the lease company hard tomorrow.

Morning, Thanks for the further replies, I have added some images. Would really welcome everyone’s thoughts! I will keep you updated on what the service centre say, might be helpful if anyone else decides to ‘challenge’ Thanks Gareth

Moderator comment - post renamed for clarity from "Paint advice" Hello, I have a 2021 Model 3 which is leased through the NHS scheme. I collected the car mid December and already I can count 15-20 paint ‘chips’ on the car. Am I wrong to think this is excessive? Previously I had an Audi for...

Hello, Hoping some of the car cleaning experts can share some tips for good products/routines/tips and tricks for cleaning inside the Model 3? Thanks in advance!

Hello, what do you guys recommend for cleaning the inside? (Product wise) Tips and tricks always welcome? Thanks

I have the Tesla kit unopened I was going to ditch the Aero wheels but might keep them now!

Moderator comment - thread renamed for clarity from "Service Question" Hi, I collected my model 3 in December and love the car. It had a really badly fitted roof glass and kept throwing some error messages about Ecall and ‘autopilot’ being unavailable (but it worked fine) I took it to...

Can anyone recommend a decent organiser for the facelift model 3 centre console it just ends up looking like a jumble sale at the moment!

Sorry! Work laptop issue, works fine on my phone! Thanks

Sorry to me a major pain, your dropbox link isn't working?

Moderator comment - posts merged from "Collecting the Car Tuesday" Hello, Super excited, due to collect the car Tuesday from Dartford. Does anyone have a check list? I assume the 'old' checklist is fine? With no changes being made externally? Does anyone have a printable copy please? Thanks

Hello, I could well be, what's the going rate for these?

Hello All, Due to collect my long range on Tuesday the 15th getting super excited! Currently use British Gas for both Gas and Electricity and paying 3.23p and 17.79p respectively with standing charges off 24.35p and 21.97p Is that massive more then the going rate? Can anyone recommend a good...

Hello, I’m due to get the car in two weeks so trying to make sure I have everything I need! I have done some searching but lots of diffrent views. what are the best Jack Pucks to go for? Also is there any other ‘must haves?’ Thanks

Evening, I am due to collect my new Model 3 long range around the 14th December and can’t wait! I am in two minds about the Areo wheels and think I want to remove them, is the Wheel nut kit/centre cap still the same for the facelift model? Are you best just to buy directly from Tesla? Thanks

I orderd back in August I think but complicated by the fact my Audi doesn’t go back until December the 14th no text or RN number yet! silly question what do I need the RN for just tracking/speaking with Tesla?

Sounds hopefully I ordered around then and also have a car going back! When do you collect?

Anyone else using Knowls Associates through the NHS? Old Car is scheduled to go on the 14th December and been given a date of 14th December for the Tesla, asked for RN number to no joy?

Silly question, are the Areos the same? Can I still buy the kit to remove them?

So due to get my car on the 14th December any thoughts on if it will be “old” or “new” design? thanks

Thanks for replying, to be honest electrics is beyond me! I’ll suggest the Blue commando socket and see what they say. be good to get the best charge I can! Thanks

Hello Everyone, Silly question, in the absence of a charge at home because of the Garage power not being sufficient, I’m having some external powerpoints added. Can anyone let me know the ‘thickness’ of the cable attached to the three pin plug so I can ensure the socket has a big enough hole...

Hello everyone, just wanted to say thanks for all the reply’s, I wasn’t expecting such thoughtful responses from everyone! I am getting excited again!

Thanks everyone some great comments from all!

Hello, Forgive the ‘rant’ type post written on my phone. I’m currently in a salary sacrifice NHS scheme and have an Audi A3 Saloon which I quite like and is due to go back in December this year. I have taken the plunge and ordered a model 3 Long range which seems to be the same price as the A3...

Thanks that would be really kind of you! Obviously when ever you can. Gareth

Tell me more?

Hi Where’s the best place to pick up a set? Noticed a few disagreements! Thanks

Thanks Both, the upgrading the power isn’t really an option due to the location of the fuse board/Garage (the cost and disruption would be shocking) I could “downgrade” the Charing to keep it around 16amp but how would that stack up against just plugging into a normal socket (charging time...

Hi Everyone, hope all is well, I’ve placed an order for a long range model 3 to replace my current lease car through Knowls (NHS) and was planning to get w charger fitted on the garage wall in front of the drive. The garage has electricity supplied (however just found out it’s only a 20amp...

Hi About two weeks ago, white LR black interior too! Second car with Knowles my current drive (Audi) isn’t due back until December. Is this your first? Have you had any information about the car from them? hoping the Sums are right but should be a saving on the Audi

Snap, I’m using Knowles too! What have you gone for?

My purchase on the centre caps and covers fell through, anyone got a set for sale?

Hi, I have orders through work as part of a salary sacrifice programme so the car has to go back to them I’m exactly the same condition, is the work reversible? And could you give me an indication of cost please? Thanks

Thanks everyone!
