    The wacky world of Tesla leasing early termination pricing.

    You'd imagine theyre not loopy enough to suggest a figure higher than the outstanding balance though. Clearly not, or very much a 'computer says no' moment.

    Just had the phone call to collect my M3 LR tomorrow. They've mentioned that there should be some finance to complete on the Tesla account, which isn't there as yet. Does anyone have any experience of when this is likely to turn up?

    Had the same with my old Beemer M3, apart from at our last house we had a break in where they came for the car (they ignored all other valuables). It was also coming to the end of the warranty and as the local BMW dealer (stealer) had told me it needed a new alloy at £900 (they couldnt...

    I'm watching with great interest to see if / what (hopefully none though) issues people are having with their cars on delivery, as I pick mine up on the 19th. Wishing you all good panel alignment, well fixed roofs, working cameras and clear lights in advance!

    Skoda EV cars

    Concept cars are always cool. The reality in the main, not so much.

    Depending on where you're coming from, you'll probably be able to get off at Manchester airport on the journey. Looks like it's going to be the JetParks site, close to M'cr Airport.
