    Soft Closing Trunk No Longer Soft

    Mine is the powered one - but it doesn't lift without help now

    Soft Closing Trunk No Longer Soft

    let us know what they please! Mine has just started pretty much slamming shut too, about 10 days ago. Also it beeps when I open it, which I don't remember it doing before, and needs quite a bit of effort to lift it

    European BEV Sales 2020 - Tesla down to nr 3 and share down by 10%

    If you are supply-constrained, and more players are entering the same market, then until such time as you can expand production, your market share will inevitably fall

    Anyone Else Had Problems With The Latest Update?

    Still getting the autopilot camera message Since the side cameras have been working perfectly since I reported the fault and booked the service appointment I' rang them to ask them to change what they're looking at

    Next release speculation and wishes

    I'm also in the possibly UK small group who don't have any difficulty seeing the speed, and who is quite happy to overridde the auto wipers from time to time by pressing the stick

    Anyone Else Had Problems With The Latest Update?

    Did you buy FSD (Full Self-Driving)?

    apologies for being nit-picky, but the 80:20 rule actually says that 20% of customers account for 80% of sales, so not applicable here

    Did you buy FSD (Full Self-Driving)?

    I thought about it but decided against. Partly as I don't do lot of motorway driving and partly because I like driving the car I'm in! Looks like beta is pretty good on motorways now - there's a video of someone making a 6 hour highway drive in California with no interventions other than to...

    Enough is Enough

    Mine's in for service on Friday, booked the day after delivery day (Dec 21). It's in because the boot is slightly misaligned, which a fleet firm manager who I got chatting to in my 5 minute wait noticed when he offered to help me out on panel gaps. There's a tiny scratch on the paintwork where...

    Collected my M3P from Thorpe Park this morning. V simple process, took 5 mins. Rear lights are out of alignment between body and boot lid, and boot lid just touching body below. Otherwise panels and paint look fine Rattle from passenger door only other problem noticed so far

    Some possibly useful info for those worrying about bank transfers. After a £100 test I sent two lots of £20K then the balance over 3 days, ending on Tuesday. I got an updated invoice very soon after I sent the £100, but the 3 big ones never appeared on my tesla account. i rang them this...

    Insurance New Vehicle [2020 Megathread]

    At the moment if you go to that link and don't know your reg it just comes up with a question asking if your car is petrol or diesel, so not quite as Tesla specific as it claims

    As it's 9 days since I got my allocation text i thought I'd ring up. I was told that all they know is that my car is en route but no delivery date yet. When i said that presumably meant my car wasn't on Triton Ace or Grand Aurora she said "not necessarily - it could be on a boat that's already...

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    Thanks for the tip-off. Inventory included my spec - M3P blue/white ordered 1 Oct - so I used chat to ask if I could be matched with it. They said I'd already been matched (nice of them to have let me know) and it was "in transit". But they claimed not to know when it had left port, so I'm not...

    Spoke to Tesla today about my order for M3P blue with white interior, ordered 1 October No match yet, promised delivery by end December I said it sounded as if there weren't any Performance on the Antwerp (I don't think anyone on here has mentioned one) but she claimed they didn't know what was...

    Tesla Referral Code Please [the one and only UK thread]

    A friend with a Model S gave me his referral code and as he's been very helpful I thought I'd use his rather than anyone else's But I've just realised that when I went through the order process I didn't see an option to enter a referral code, and when I looked it up on the Tesla site it says...

    So I just cancelled my TeslaFi subscription...

    I'm sure Portugal isn't the only country that has the ability to do this already, and we should maybe feel a bit reassured that they don't. Apart from a couple of major motorways with toll gates, you pay mini-tolls of 75c, €1.25 etc each time you pass a gantry that either triggers an onboard...

    Plunge taken

    An hour spent hanging round at the Potters Bar superchargers as suggested led to initial confusion as most cars were either white or older Model S with colours no longer available, but then someone drove in with a metallic blue Model X and that made my mind up Model 3 performance duly ordered...

    Model 3 Colour choice

    I should perhaps have said I'm going for the white interior. Thanks for the excellent suggestion re the South Mimms supercharger. That's only 5 miles from me The fact that silver/grey cars are generally thought to show dirt less is admittedly a consideration, though I do very much like the...

    Model 3 Colour choice

    I'm about to order, but still havering between blue and silver. I've only seen silver in the flesh once very briefly and the blue not at all. It's not helped by the guy when I had my test drive saying the colour looks different in real life from photos - borne out by a Google image search where...

    end of quarter sales push

    My test drive for Thursday just got cancelled because they've sold the car I was going to test drive! I've had one test drive already so I think I'll just go ahead and order, though suspect wait times will be quite long at quarter start

    Lease v buy 2020

    Thanks for those thoughts I could in theory buy it as a company car for my one-man consultancy, but as my turnover is low and falling as I get nearer to complete retirement my conscience tells me that would be nudging tax evasion I'm in the lucky position of having cash. which is earning me...

    Lease v buy 2020

    I realise the issue has been addressed before, but i also think the relative pluses and minuses of leasing v renting keep changing with a variety of circumstances, so I'd welcome the Wisdom of the Crowds on this forum I'm about to order a Model 3 performance, and would ideally like blue...
