    Vicroads ZLEV km request

    Like others I also have not ever received the request - since Nov 21. On the "law of the land" comment. Yes I tend to agree with that as a law for payments made by motorists who were adequately and provably informed of their requirement to pay... However, as the article "states" (trying not to...

    Vicroads ZLEV km request

    Yes, I've seen this article and earlier versions of the same one from last month. I'm a little skeptical of the legitimacy of them as you'd think there'd be a huge risk of the Vic govt being further embarrassed if the court case goes against them and they have to pay compensation to people who...

    Vicroads ZLEV km request

    I realize there are other threads on this topic but haven't found one on this question specifically... How many people from Victoria have received a request from Vicroads to send evidence of their odometer? How often do you receive the request? Annually at time of registration? Has anyone not...

    Get your anger at no MY available in Australia, but how about you wind down on the opinion, yeah? This is not a political forum. Cheers 👍

    What did you sell/trade for your 3?

    You will be happy. I came from and A4 - Once you get used to the simplicity of the M3 you will not look back. The sound system is probably equal to the B&O but the silence of the EV makes the listening experience even better. The torque rush never gets old and quite simply I wish I'd done it...

    What did you sell/trade for your 3?

    You'll have forgotten about it in no time at all. The torque hit will see to the seat of the pants thrill and the sound system will take care of your aural needs ;)

    What kind of impact has your M3 had on your power bill?

    Slightly off topic but connected... Last night we had to fill up my wife's CRV.... $100 for 4-500km range around town. Okay so $1.99/L may eventually come back down but I calculate that as at least a $70 saving kms for kms in the M3, which over the course of the year would add up to about $1200...

    What kind of impact has your M3 had on your power bill?

    No off peak where I am just flat rate so average 20-21c per KWH. I usually drive the car to 25% before charging back up to 90% so costs me about $10 per fortnight extra in power. A4 used to cost about $40 in fuel for the same distance. I think my calcs are right :)

    I think I need a Model Y

    So it finally happened… Face to face company meeting in Brisvegas. Woohoo! My only dilemma… should I take my road bike or my gravel bike? Decisions, decisions. I settled on the gravel bike just so I could do more bike trails around the river and I’m feeling a bit lazy at the moment so the gravel...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    Fingers crossed the "APAC" reference equals a reasonable number of Model Y vehicles for Australia. I'm looking forward to an easier way to carry my bike around... err I mean I'm looking for a replacement SUV for the boss... No one tell her this site exists, okay? 😂

    I drove to Sydney and back with a bike on the roof. Would estimate no more than 15% efficiency loss.

    Bike Rack - Roof vs Trunk vs Hitch

    I bought the Yakima window rail mount version because I just couldn’t get access to the Tesla rack. It doesn’t look as neat as the Tesla (Yakima) integrated roof rack but it is really easy to install and remove. No damage to the rails after I removed it so happy with that.

    Model 3 Build Quality - What's your experience?

    I just did a 2000km return trip and the loudest noise I had was the bike I put on the roof… and even that was not that loud. As for “road noise” or “wind noise” it may be more “hearable” without a motor droning in the engine bay but I would say without a doubt my A4 was as loud or louder (quiet...

    It does sound like you have got the rough end of the pineapple there Crumpetman. Not sure why you would have to wait 3 weeks for service though, particularly with so many problems. Fingers crossed for you that your problems get resolved. I have no bias towards Tesla and have had exactly the...

    Clarification on Tint

    Had mine tinted with 20% on the rear doors and roof (single full glass piece), 35% on the front doors and nothing on the front roof. You can’t see any difference between the roof panels from outside although I have a black car and black interior so that might help. There are very few tint shops...

    What did you sell/trade for your 3?

    Audi A4 Quattro S-Line. Miss the interior quality, maybe the seats were better, B&O sound system was awesome but the M3LR sound is pretty close I reckon. Ride quality is surprisingly very similar. The Audi was a lovely car to own. But even with an APR tune it was a shopping cart compared to the...
