I live in the North York Moors, a fairly remote rural part of the UK, down a mile long farm track of gravel + mostly clay soil. Keeping my Model 3 clean is a nightmare as it is, but one of the problems is there's always a film left behind by the jetwash. The following photo is a result of the...

Just noticed today that my driver's side headlight + main beam is dead. Daytime running light is fine. It had a new windscreen fitted yesterday by Autoglass and I think they talked about removing the frunk pan. Is there a chance they unplugged something accidentally? Don't know if I should go...

An incompetent family member has done this (dashcam confirmed) by scraping it against the gate into the property. What cost am I likely to be looking at to fix this? It has gone through the basecoat but not the primer and the underlying metal hasn't dented.

Thanks for the detailed technical responses. I will stop mithering!

A load of coins just fell out of my passenger's pocket on the front seat. On trying to retrieve some of them, I push a gap through in the carpet and they fell onto something metallic underneath the floor. There's now a hole there that unlimited things can fall into, and I've got no idea if I now...

Just thought I'd share this really. I randomly read through my loan terms on Sunday morning, and found it mentioned early resettlement rebates. I previously had the impression, I think from a thread I read on here, that it wasn't possible to settle early without also repaying all the interest...

The record for single over-to-dinner pisstake charging I'm aware of is a phone, a tablet, a laptop and a set of aircraft batteries!

I've gone for the cheap and ubiquitous one (there's basically only one for about a tenner). My concern is more a couple of members of the senior generation who think that all of the town's streetlights will dim as soon as I plug it in, and need data to be convinced otherwise!

Does anyone use an inline electricity meter with their mobile charger to square away the charging cost with friends & relatives when visiting them? What do you have and can you recommend it?

Just had the text today and booked collection!

Anyone know what ship a 400*** LR would likely be on?

I've just had a go with the tesla.com/en_GB/schedule/RN#### "hack", and it gives me collection dates for 6th, 7th and 8th of December. How big a pinch of salt should this be taken with?

If you're using the Firefox extension, it doesn't work for UK cars (it doesn't seem to be looking for the "LRW" string in the VIN). The only way to reliably tell is to manually search for "LRW" in the page source. May be a similar story with other browsers.

Same here, but given that the first half of the test drive was in chill mode, and I didn't fully cotton on until feeling a bit disappointed so then actually timing a 0-60, when I put the thing in normal mode I thought I was going to go backwards through the seat every time I hoofed it. So I'm...

I HAVE A VIN! Appeared in the source today. Blue LR with tow bar. Does this mean it's likely coming Decemberish?

The issue is the "nose weight" (vertically down on the tow ball) which I think is only around 50kg?

I was told the same, but need it for my glider trailer.

Cloth isn't an option. It's "vegan leather" in black or white.

What does your sig mean by "On hold till October 1st"? I really hope I'm not looking at six months because of the tow bar!

I've been watching this thread for a couple of weeks now, with some disdain for the lack of patience that has become a feature of modern society. ...And then two Friday night beers in, completely cracked. I want my Tesla, and I want it a lot. Every drive of my ageing Volvo is sheer misery, and...

Thanks all, the need to reverse up to the supercharger pretty much seems to mean finding somewhere safe & sensible for the trailer as a trip planning consideration, aside from what Andrew was able to do at Scotch corner. It's good to see numerous other glider pilots owning Teslas too, given (as...

Resurrecting this a bit, having ordered an M3 LR and thinking about daily stuff... I note there's an illuminated electrical escape button in the frunk. I presume this is inhibited while driving, and freak excursions of items in shopping bags won't result in anything happening? Maybe someone's...

I've recently ordered M3 AWD LR + towbar. Very excited and thinking about various practicalities. One of them is that I'm a glider pilot, and will be visiting other clubs around the country with my own glider, which is transported in a ~8m long trailer (this one, to be exact). This will...

Ordered my 3 LR yesterday, finance agreement went through today. Mine will have a tow bar, and the confirmation email came through today that it's added to the order. The lad in the Tesla centre (Leeds) told me that the towbar offering is coming to an end, and because I want one it'll push my...
