    Numberplates Stolen - Model Y

    Both sets of stolen plates had the green tag on them. The combination of letters / numbers is seemingly completely random, can’t imagine there being any desire for the plate for that reason. Police warned that I may get pulled over as the legit plates on my car would trigger the ANPR cameras...

    Numberplates Stolen - Model Y

    No Sentry mode, but not sure what help that would be in this case. Police have recovered the last set of plates. The last time they unclipped the Tesla branded bracket so it was an easy removal. We stuck the new plates on with 3M tape to the brackets that are bolted to the car, underneath the...

    Numberplates Stolen - Model Y

    5 weeks later and the plates on our car have been stolen again, broad daylight in a big public car park 2 hours from home. Brackets and bolts ripped off from the bumper this time around so I need to source new plate mounting brackets from Tesla. I unfortunately found out that my breakdown...

    Numberplates Stolen - Model Y

    Annoying morning, both numberplates stolen on my Model Y. Looks like they just unclipped the numberplate brackets and lifted them off, don't have sentry enabled but wouldn't have really helped. Reported on Met Police website, had a look if I needed to tell DVLA but can't find any links? Assume...

    How do you listen to music in your Tesla?

    Ok, my last car didn’t auto turn the radio on if had it on when I turned the car off. The main difference is if I’ve been listening to Spotify on my phone/at home since leaving the car, it starts playing whatever was last listened to on that account. I use white noise on Spotify for my...

    How do you listen to music in your Tesla?

    Is there a way to stop the car auto-playing the last thing I was listening to on Spotify when I open the doors? I don’t know why they think you need musical accompaniment when you get into a car but it’s getting a bit annoying after a few weeks

    Public BP Chargemaster Issues

    I’ve tried using a BP Chargemaster/Pulse public charger a couple of times, at different locations. The first time it took me 15 minutes to get the car to charge, and today I couldn’t get it to charge at all. The BP app says to connect your car to the charge point and then initiate the charging...

    Any advice for Ireland Roadtrip?

    We stayed at the Johnstown Estate, 35 mins from Dublin and there were 5 or 6 Superchargers installed that were due to be operational in a couple of weeks, so may be worth checking with them nearer your trip. On our journey back to Dublin yesterday the ESB 150KW chargers along the motorways were...

    Any advice for Ireland Roadtrip?

    We didn't turn anything off both ways and it was no problem. I didn't see an option for tilt/intrusion but sentry was off.

    Any advice for Ireland Roadtrip?

    I’m currently 10 days into a London - Holyhead - Dublin - Galway - Connemara trip, we’re heading home on Saturday. I’ve been granny charging for 4-5 hours in the morning, bought a socket tester that I used before plugging in, and check the plug regularly to check it’s not getting warm. That...

    Has anyone else experienced a one time clunk/thump noise from under the car a few minutes after parking? I’ve been sat in the car and heard it from under me, this has happened a couple of times now. It sounds like something banging against something else, impossible to get a clip of it as it...

    Also not being able to warm the battery before leaving in the morning easily kills 5% battery in the first 5-10 minutes of driving, which I’m trying to account for in the Arrival SoC need

    Currently on a road trip around Ireland in our Y, left London on Tuesday and have done a good few charges. A crash course in EV life, but what else will get you accustomed quickly? Superchargers conveniently everywhere on route so far, including in Ireland, maybe a few minutes detour max. ESB...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    Noticed that I’d used 79kWh, ie the full battery. 248 miles is better than I was expecting, consisted of a mix of motorway/country roads/stop start city traffic, temps down to 4C and wind/rain with some stupid acceleration moments thrown in there.

    Had the car for 5 days and covered a couple of hundred miles. Still driving a bit cautiously as it takes some getting used to driving around in a £60k car having come from a 9 year old car I didn’t care too much about. It’s got mud splashes all over it and I love that it looks used now, like a...

    There are people washing the cars right before collection. As far as I’m aware you have 7 days/100 miles to report any issues, the lighting is terrible at Bluewater pickup so may be worth saving the checklist for when you’re home

    From the previous page: Go straight to the car park, it’s right by the chargers. We arrived 45 mins early at Bluewater and it wasn’t a problem. The process only took a few minutes, I can’t see why they wouldn’t let you, there were over 100 cars ready for pickup. Use this link for the exact...

    Be good to hear your accountants take, like I said my accountant had absolutely no problem with the V5 being in my name and they’ve always been very black and white about what’s ok and what’s not.

    Collection day at Bluewater finally came. We arrived 45 mins before our slot but that was no problem and we had the document signed and car showing in our app no more than 5 minutes after arriving at the desk. HUGE amount of teslas ready for pickup, rows upon rows. Car came with 34% battery...

    What I did, and mentioned earlier in the thread, was to remove my company name from the registered keeper details, as it’s not necessary and makes no difference to HMRC (my accountants confirmed). Email Tesla to remove company name and keep registered keeper as your personal name/address. I...

    Sorry you’re still waiting for updates on your orders. I saw one in London earlier today, I’m a non lease London buyer and have collection in a few days - not to rub that in but I’m not sure that bias seems right. Spoke with my brother in law who has a Q4 Etron on order with estimated arrival...

    I've just taken out a DL policy, I clarified that my LTD company will be owner of the car and I am the registered keeper personally and it was no problem. Told they used to ask who owned and who is registered keeper, but now they only ask who the registered keeper is. Policy was paid for by my...

    Do you need to specify this if the car is owned by my LTD company? Currently have a DL quote with myself as registered keeper but haven’t specified my company as the owner (there’s no question for this on the quote)

    How are you purchasing? I had stupidly high quotes when I listed my LTD company as the registered keeper on the quote. I've mentioned in this thread that once I changed it to myself as the registered keeper the quotes came right down, which is how it should be when purchasing through LTD...
