Oh yeah in addition to my last rant, the audio interface is terrible now. Spotify, then try streaming from phone, and you can’t swipe across anymore. It’s so much worse than before :(. Before I could easily choose different sources I want the old version back please if anyone at Tesla HQ is...

I had a long trip yesterday and really was getting agitated at some points not being able to intuitively find things. The screen misted up and genuinely panicked not knowing where the de mister was. The blind spot thing is good in principle, but in practice more risky taking your eyes off the...

i also just had car washed (waiting for detailing and ceramic and PPF!) but can’t help but notice the panel gaps…does this look too big?

Soon it may be German 😂😂

How about this beauty?!

Oh my . I love the 240z. I don’t know why, but as kid I wanted one more than a countach ( I don’t think I was considering reliability then!). Yes type r - my favourite and a future classic. Then we get to the true classics. Impreza P1, and celica 1st gen. Then the Nissan GTR. Of course, how...

Some countries cannot support EV within their infrastructure and hydrogen cell is a very good alternative and reduces potential in city pollution etc. so I don’t think we can preach when EV manufacture isn’t clean as you think. If I had a pound for every person who claims Japanese cars are...

Tesla is a threat to the tradition. I like being part of a relatively new company who are killing traditions and changing the way we think…

https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/help-calling-ex-tesla-model-3-owners.8017/ 😂😂 Seems model 3 is respected as much a a Toyota there. And yes, it turns out this thread is ultimately about reliability. For a true comparison, if I was to choose between a Porsche EV and Tesla, I would go...

Do you ever wonder why Toyota has the courage to offer a 10 year warranty? Can you imagine Porsche giving one? They want us to pay to inspect before we can buy their warranty and make sure we get ripped off by them every issue we have. It’s just not right to assume just because it’s German it...

Thanks! I spotted that after your reply. Interesting.. does sound like a software rather than mechanical issue ;)

Japanese attention to detail (Lexus etc) from my experience has been leaps and bounds compared to German cars of late The last reliable car I remember from a German build was a 1989 SL. Then I remember my family getting the most unreliable 1997 Mercedes ever with paint that washed off (any of...

Didn’t seem frozen or stuck. It was odd - wasn’t particularly cold last 1 day..

I noticed yesterday I had an error message something like ‘charging port door may not open when pressed’ then overnight it went away. It actually did open when pressed even when the error message was on. However today when I got to work I noticed the charging port door open when I got out of...

The most unreliable cars I have had have been Porsche and BMW…and my customer experience have been poor. I think the misconception here is that buying German means better build quality, just because the door closes with a heavier thud, or the aura around a ‘prestige car’ is better with Porsche...

I’m going to splash out a bit now during the day to see if the home charger works ok 😂😩

I can probably calculate this - but can’t be bothered. How many miles can you get max on the 5p rate?

Picked it up! Great experience. Came with 150 miles charge and only negative looked like it had been wiped with a floor mop! But it’s such an amazing car. Now charging…

Finally on its way to meet its long lost big brother…

Not a great start - train cancelled and will arrive late.. do you think they will turn me back 😩😩

So excited about tomorrow! Photos coming as soon as I get there…

Is anyone else shocked at how few photos there are relative to posts 😂😂. It’s always so exciting to see a model 3 in 1 of 5 colours and 1 of 2 interiors and 3 wheels!! When collecting what is the purpose of that red model 3 in the Tesla tent? Is it a demonstration car?

Not a big fan of considering respray later rather than PPF first. Had a dealer once (granted it was for a high performance car - like the Tesla 😂) who claimed my car was in an accident as the paint thickness didn’t match when I came to sell. And I kept telling them the last owner told me they...

Thanks a lot very useful. I always have my new cars detailed but have often delayed this till after the car is ‘new’ like your detailer said. I’m just frustrated the weather is so bad as even the 1 hour trip with stone/ salt can mess up the paintwork. I want to PPF the front end too. I want to...

So excited to pick up next Wednesday…train ticket ready! Not got insurance documents yet though… Question; Should I get the car detailed as soon as I get the car or just do autoglym ceramic spray first to protect over winter then get it proper sorted later? Do they move cars to the tent just...

The documents I have received from Peugeot Insurance are from "PSA Insurance" which, looking on their website, seems to be Peugeot, Citroën and DS. Thanks. I was hoping like some others have mentioned that the other quotes from DL and Churchill would come down but hasn’t for me!

has anyone gone with Citroen cover instead? Just wondering if it’s the same call centre etc. Peugeot and Citroen by far remain cheapest for me…

Can anyone share a referral code with me please? 🥺

Someone may have mentioned this but on top of the prices going up for the LR, when you hover over the wheel choices the range changes. So standard aero is 375 and 19 is 360. Is this a new thing as I hadn’t realised before? Excited to pick up mine in December. But the new problem I have is...

Do you get to choose a time for the home delivery? Worried if I go for that I may miss them as I have work in the afternoon if it’s the same day as my collection super early in morning :( miles away :(

Definitely ordering! One more to the list of ‘accessories!’ I need to find a detailer for ceramic coating - any recommendations? Anyone getting PPF for front end?

Yes no option for Bham, just Leicester. Changing to Trafford centre option but still far however may be more accessible. Earliest was 28th which I couldn’t do… i want it earlier :(( does it come with tequila in it or just the decanter? Couldn’t tell!!

MrBob thanks very much was looking since 8am so now going to call..cheers

Why 😩😩

I got my text but says no collection dates available :(

Yes looking at it that way If all Q4 cars are the same fine… I just want the car too!

maybe I am confused, are we talking about getting one battery vs another. 1 with better range and faster charging vs the other which isn't? please correct me if I am wrong !!

I have B on my VIN too, found 26th October. I am not worried too much about a few miles of range, but am more worried about future resale value if in the future people avoid 2021 cars with B VIN? I dont know...guess we will find out when they arrive... I wouldn't class the battery as a 'subtle...

She can easily press the cancel button on that person(s) making her cry and be non the wiser 😆😆😆

I was excited for a while until I read it may be a ship that will arrive 12th December, is this for real!! Why is that ship the slowest? BTW I am only reading this from the other thread.. may not be up to date

This is possibly the most excited I have ever been about a car, even when I had to wait 8 months for my cayman that I ordered in 2007 and put me into financial ruin

I am a long time lurker who cannot contain my excitement so had to make my first post. Shows on source code. Thanks to Mr M who not only has a huge amount of knowledge on the shipping and Tesla front but also makes me smirk at least once a day. White LR Black 19".

GOT MY VIN!!
