There is a brake pedal 🤣 but yes the regen slows the car to a stop. You can, and sometimes do, need to use the brake ie: someone jumps a junction or a pedestrian wants to suddenly leap into the road. That being said, the car (so I'm told) will emergency brake if it sees a possible collision...

Just had the following email from GeniePoint to say they’re removing connection fees. Still a high kw rate but every little helps! email in full below: We wanted to share some good news with you – we’re removing our connection fee. At GeniePoint, we take it seriously when it comes to...

A bit late now but I thought I'd share, if anyone has any additional questions message me. Delivered but wasn't given any warning (such as hour away call or tracking link as promised), just had a call from the company who were lost 5mins away. Delivery very good and around 12 miles on the...

How was the delivery service, I’ve got mine coming on Saturday. Did they allow you to inspect the car and log any faults, did it have much charge, was it clean? Thanks

This video mentions the door alignment, might be helpful:

All the best to everyone collecting today :)

Thanks for the pictures! I thought for a second my car was actually in the picture but the reg is one digit out (at the end). However, it probably is out there, as its being delivered and that's the closest location. I wonder if they'll charge or clean it...doubtful!

If you hear back please let me know, interested what the delivery procedure is when not collecting from an SC. I'll let you know if I hear back from Tesla too.

Is anyone getting a delivery, not a collection? Mine is on the 6th March. Not entirely sure what do to if there are issues, as it's not at a SC collection. I guess I just log them in the app as a service issue? The delivery firm certainly aren't going to be bothered, unless they damaged it! :)

Someone at work has one and I've driven that. It was comfortable, quick and well built. On the standard wheels, the wheel arches look empty with a large gap between the tyre and arch, which I personally don't like. I found the centre console a nightmare and the owner doesn't like it either. Very...

I asked a similar question here: MIC Paint Battery charging rates w/ made in china

Funny you should say that. It did many hundreds of motorway miles a week (around 600) for around 9 months from new (company lease car) and around the 10 month mark, 6am on the M6 south....bang. Water pump had gone, car overheated, dead.

Can't comment on the Tesla, doesn't arrive until the 6th March. However, over 11-12 years ago I had a Vauxhall which I parked on a slope (around 10-15 degrees) in snowy conditions, as I had done many times before. The whole road was on a hill and this parking area was at the top, to the side...

Thanks for all the comments, doesn't appear to be a clear answer yet. I have planned to get ceramic coating (for cleaning) and some PPF but I didn't want to go ahead with the expense if the MIC models had a "better" finish. As the car doesn't arrive until March, I wondered if anyone had...

Evening, Do we know if paint thickness (if that’s the right term) is any better on model 3’s made in China? I’ve watched and read a number of people complain about stone chips or grit chips which are not as typical with other manufacturers. They happen but not as easily. The majority talk of...

Had a text yesterday evening, delivery 6th March, LR (no tow) ordered in December. Thanks

You sir have made my day! thank you :)

thanks for the info @Peteski, so does this mean the different batteries on MIC M3's only applies to SR and not the LR models? @Kelvin sadly devil is always in the detail, I don't know why I expected different. I'm not overly fussed about the change in trim, etc, my only real concern is around...

forgot to also mention the 0-60 time, as the new battery from MIC is (again rumoured) to be heavier :-/

Hey, As I said I don't have specific battery information but would love to see some comparisons. If there aren't any real world differences then great! My concerns over those advertised by Tesla would be 360 (WLTP) range, if MIC batteries are further adversely effected by cold then does that...

That's my concern, we've got snow today! If the battery is different, then isn't that mis-selling? If you buy an item based on the spec advertised online, and then get delivered something else - surely they need to advise the customer? I'm all for better build quality but not at the expense of...

Evening, I just watched this interesting comparison video of the model 3 made in China vs USA. Most of it seems harmless and hopefully a better build quality but the concerning part was regarding the battery. Does anyone have any specific information regarding the battery and charging rates...

I had read UK prices too but maybe not, apologies. Appears to be elsewhere at the moment: Tesla reduces European Model 3 pricing in several markets

Long time reader, first time poster. As the prices in the UK have now declined. Would those of us who ordered via a leasing company back in December 2020, but have yet to take delivery, receive the reduction? I'm assuming not but before I email the leasing firm, I thought I should check with...
