    [UK] used value of their Tesla cars plummeting?

    bought mine in March 2022, looking at prices I paid about £900 more than now. That said I got parking sensors so happy with car as would have paid that much extra to have them and when I do trade its respective, may be the trade of mine will be less but so will be price of new car

    Snow with the Model Y RWD

    looking to change to AS tyres when I need to replace my existing MY tyres. Is there any comparison in terms of wear between summer and AS tyres. Just think if rubber a bit softer on AS they will wear out quicker but I could be wrong ?

    charge question less than 20% left

    Ok, been on a long trip today and got home about 5pm with 16% charge left, as I am on Octopus I won't charge the car until 11:30pm. Is this OK or given the low state of charge should I charge straight away, not sure if leaving it for 6 or 7 hours with less than 20% charge is detrimental to...

    any help appreciated ! I have just received my charging schedule for tonight and it gives 3 slots that total 2 hours however my car requires 32% which I estimate would take around 3 hours - will IO just continue charging at the cheap rate until my limit is reached ?

    good question - my car need 25% to hit limit set however I have been given the schedule below - my maths suggests I need 2 and half hours to reach this yet the schedule suggests 4 hours so would I get the last 'slot' at the cheap rate for whole house ?

    octopus intelligent VS Go ?

    not sure which is best to consider, on the face of it Intelligent with a longer off peak period seems the better option ? household usage around 5400 a year and car expect about 3000 a year...

    using M3P whilst MY in for repairs

    so I took my MY for a few bits sorting today and was given an M3P as a loaner. thoughts on this model compared to my Model Y; M3 much smaller, no heated steering wheel, not good in the back even for my 14 year old daughter, no auto boot and overall lack of space there. BUT - WOW does this M3P...
