233 @ 9k miles. M3SR+ I’m sure that average will increase though as I only took delivery in March so yet to see cold temperatures. I don’t know how accurate ABRP is but it’s interesting to see the ‘reference consumption Wh/mile at 65mph’ for different electric cars. I-pace is shocking!

Park on the level with a wall in front of you preferably. Access the service menu where there is a headlight adjustment setting. If it’s obvious which side is out then you are able to adjust each light using the steering wheel scrollers. Otherwise leave it to the techs!

1200 miles and absolutely no issues on SR+

I’ve had a situation where I was decelerating slowly and still had my foot on the accelerator slightly. I then needed to come to a stop and found myself depressing the accelerator. I think because I was slowing down, my ICE-trained muscle memory thought I had my foot on the brake rather than...

I’ve found the pod point app very flakey. The website is much better for claiming the charge.

For those waiting imminent delivery, did your Tesla account page show an accurate delivery day/time? I’ve heard nothing regarding delivery from Tesla or autoxp but my tesla account page shows my home address (where pre-Tesla direct it showed collection at Heathrow) and delivery scheduled for...

Any lease customer with a car on Morning Cara had a delivery text yet?

Out if interest, how many ships need a pilot from Brixham? I grew up in Torbay and didn’t know this was a thing!

Wow: I have had EXACTLY that text emailed to me today through Gateway2lease (even the name!)

.... and you thought 15 minutes going into Heathrow was bad!

Leave mine on the yellow dot of the ship. I’ll collect it myself

To try and explain further, I have one untethered type 2 charger socket and two cables, one type 1 to type 2 for the PHEV, one type 2 to type 2. Both will remain on the drive The two ends of the type 2 cable are definitely different! I think what I’m going to do is wall mount the dust cap...

I’m after a dummy socket that I can put next to my untethered charger to accept a type two cable male plug (ie the end that would go into the charger). I will soon have a PHEV and a model 3 on the drive, so 2 different cables requiring swapping around and thought this would be a neat solution...

Out in San Francisco at the moment so thought I’d take an early morning stroll down to pier 80 and have a looksee. Transporters loaded with 3’s and X’s arriving every few minutes. All the ones I saw were LHD. Couldn’t see quite how many were already on the site but room for hundreds more.

Try zap map. On the app you can filter for different charger types and speeds to cut out some clutter. There’s a few around the area that might be useful for you: Exmoor White Horse Inn has Tesla destination chargers for example. Could get a decent charge whilst having a meal. Morrison’s...

If you’re comparing costs of A6 to M3, you really need to look at total cost of ownership rather than just purchase price. I suspect (certainly hope!) M3 will have significantly lower running costs.

I’ve heard of a charging desert but a charging pond is a new one on me

Is preconditioning just to ensure the fastest charge rate? If so, and time is not the prime factor, then isn’t it more efficient/cheaper not to precondition? I suppose not navigating to a supercharger and just pulling in anyway would be enough to trick the car to not start heating the battery.

Hmmm I like the idea of motorways covered in an electrified mesh like the dodgems. Just extend the roof mounted charge connector for some electrons while you drive. Might mess with your mobile signal though.

No, I don’t know anyone who’s signed up. They don’t offer any tesla vehicles

My company has just given a pay deal to one work group, part of which was a credit towards perks. Gym membership, dental, car lease (through Zenith) etc. All perks taken off gross salary (sacrifice).

I have seen a picture of the 18 inch wheels on a UK model 3 with Michelin pilot sport 4 tyres 235/45 ZR 18 98Y.

Thanks Zayn but was looking for UK specific answers to those lucky few who have just received the first RHD cars

Couple of confirmation questions if I may: 1) Can people who have received their cars confirm what charge cable(s) they were supplied with. 2) Did you receive floor mats? 3) for partial premium interior, what are the media options? I’m guessing Spotify works via phone Bluetooth (not through...

Looks nice. Thank you. Would it be possible to have clickable column headers? ie clicking the 'Price' header could toggle between ordering the vehicles in price low -> high and high -> low. Same for date added would be nice too.

There is functionality within the tesla waze web app for supercharger usage/queues. I haven't been able to try it fully, and of course it relies on all drivers running the page on their cars browser, but pending an official solution from Tesla this might be the best option at the moment. Waze...

I'm no audiophile but I do like the greater choice of radio stations that DAB provides, and the even greater ones through internet radio. £2100 for the Ultra high fidelity sound seems a bit steep for the privilege of DAB though. Can you successfully stream the BBC radio app via bluetooth to...

Nice Work! I guess the pressure was on after that alfa (4C?) stoofed in! The i8 on the BMW stand was very well presented and attracted a lot of attention. Love the FoS: great event.

I was at Goodwood Festival of Speed last Friday and visited the Tesla stand (2 RHD P85's with frunk latches removed (!), some comfy sofas and laminates of the future supercharger locations seen in another thread). The lady I spoke to said there were 180 deliveries over the weekend. Lots of...

On Afdyce's laminate, I would put #8 at Watford Gap services on the M1, but they are split N/bound and South so would require a supercharger on each side I guess.

Ecotricity to start charging for electric highway from next year http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUDddloHrYM#t=355 Dale Vince suggests that they could start charging for use from January. No rates mentioned.

Hi, first post but long time lurker. Having seen the price differential between US and UK I began to consider the option of buying a model s (probably 2nd hand) in the states, keeping it their for the minimum six months and importing it to the UK. Aside from the steering wheel being on the...
