    Advice on new raven 2020 purchase

    Just my twopennies worth: We have a 7 seater and have had it for 3 years. We want a 6 seater next. The reason: we have 4 kids. If I had 3 kids or less I would be opting for a 5 or 7 seater. The boot/trunk is massive with the third row folded down. This is different to your requirements...

    TWC Gen 3 (Tesla Wall connector) for the UK

    Moderator comment - posts merged from "Order Tesla Gen 3 Charger in UK" Hi all, I need a new charger at home and for various reasons want to buy a Tesla one. We’ve had our Pod Point Charger since I had my p85 MS nearly 6 years ago. However, Tesla have launched the gen 3 charger in the US and...

    Hotels with free car charging

    Zap Map is a bit of a faff to use for this as it show all chargers (and there’s lots now) but doesn’t show hotels only so you literally have to click on almost everything to see if it’s a hotel or not, if there a cost or not...and so far I’ve not found any free ones other than destination...

    Hotels with free car charging

    Hi all, I wondered if people knew of what hotels offer free car charging? My wife and I have had our MX for 3 years and I had an MS before that for 2.5 years so we’re very used to making use of free s/chargers, but I collect my M3 on Monday (meaning we’ll officially be a 2 Tesla household)...

    2 years free supercharging

    You’re right about more being listed. Tesla let you reserve the car for 7 days I’m told but after that if the care isn’t yours it’s freed up. I suspect there will be a different range almost everyday unless people reserve them and there’s a chance they might come back online 7 days later...

    LOL. No idea then, but if I’d got the text I’d be pushing for them to give it to me ;)

    The 2 years free s/charging is just in the US guys. Just had it confirmed by Tesla UK.

    2 years free supercharging

    I’m not sure if they were ex-display used on tours or something. There was pretty much every model (RWD, AWD, Performance, standard, range of colours...). I VERY nearly put a deposit on a black performance one, but I’m supposed to be keeping my current car until March really.

    2 years free supercharging

    There were c.20 inventory Model 3’s listed on Tuesday morning and all sold by the end of the day. They were discounted by c.£2k each (although there was one with full self-drive that was c.£5k cheaper than list). All were brand new (max 20miles on the clock but VATQ and 100% FYA Claimable)...

    Model 3 bought through ltd company needs insuring

    Hi guys. We’ve had our MX for 2.5 years now and I had an MS for 2.5 years before that too. Both are bought and owned by my own Ltd company. In addition, I drive an i8 (looking to replace with a Model3 Performance soon) which is also owned by my company. My expereince is this: 1. Make sure the...

    Enhanced Auto Pilot - order or not-Help?

    My AP1 MS could perpendicular self-park (I'm pretty sure it could anyway). Surely, if this isn't on AP2 yet, it will be? I think the UK (assuming the government doesn't change following the forthcoming election) intend to be trailblazers of self-driving cars. They certainly say that they...

    X60D Range Upgrade to 75 price reduced!

    $4,500 in the US? That's about £3,600 and yet the price here at the minute is more than double that! Issue is, if I do it before collection I can add the upgrade cost to the initial cost which is a company purchase. And I'm collecting the car in 24hours!

    X60D Range Upgrade to 75 price reduced!

    A fun few days - Tesla confirmed in writing that the upgrade cost would be £2,000. I had it added to my spec as a result (which took almost a week to add to the spec for some reason). Having finally received the spec I can see the cost of £7,800 being added!!! I'm not paying that.

    What features will I get with 'Autopilot Convenience'?

    Thanks DJP31. Even Tesla seem to be struggling to answer this one so I appreciate your view. If that's all the case, I'm not sure why I would pay for Enhanced AP unless I was going to move to FSD at some point. Any views welcome though.

    paid for AP1end up without autopilot

    Hi all. My wife and I are collecting our new MX on Friday. Confusingly though I have "all the convenience features of the original autopilot" but with AP2 hardware. I can upgrade to Enhanced Autopilot or Full Self-Drive should I wish, but since this was a car ordered with autopilot and then...

It's an inventory car that we're collecting on Friday but I have to advise if I want to...

    X60D Range Upgrade to 75 price reduced!

    Bizarrely, I've now had another call to confirm that it WILL be lower than £6500, but what price exactly is not confirmed. it is likely rot be around £5,000 though apparently.

    X60D Range Upgrade to 75 price reduced!

    I have to be honest - I don't know. But the Tesla guy earlier seemed to suggest that it was £6,500 and remains so. £9,500 seems an awful lot to go from ma 60d to a 75d to me. That said, so does £6,500.

    60d to 75d price changes

    I had confirmation this morning from Tesla in the UK that the upgrade cost on a Model X is the same £6,500 it was before the price changes. IE, for the MX in the UK there is no change to the upgrade prices. Disappointing.

    X60D Range Upgrade to 75 price reduced!

    Spoken to Tesla a week ago in the UK but couldn't get and answer. Tried again yesterday, still couldn't answer. Tried again this morning - confirmed: 1. £2,000 to upgrade an MS 60/60d to 75/75d. 2. £6,500 to upgrade an MX 65d to 75d. Confirmed there has been no change to this pricing in the UK.

    60d to 75d price changes

    Hi all, It seems that the cost to increase the 60d Model S's and Model X's has been reduced as part of the recent price changes that occurred yesterday. However, not having one myself I couldn't confirm the new prices. Is anyone on here able to confirm and share?

    Has anyone got a 60d MX with 22" wheels on? If so, I'd be really keen to talk to you to hear your views on range.

    22" wheel impact on range and ride quality

    I think that works out at about 140miles of range for the 22" on a 60d MX then and 174miles on a 75d MX.

    22" wheel impact on range and ride quality

    So do people think the range will be 153 - 161 miles? TBH that's probably sufficient for us too. We'll be charging at home and not often we'd go further without stopping off for the kids anyway at which point we'd use a supercharger. Intrigued to here real achieved range of a 60d on both sets...

    22" wheel impact on range and ride quality

    When Tesla say 10-15% impact on range I'm intrigued as to whether this gives the achievable range. IE on a 60d there is a rated range of 200miles. Would people actually start achieving a range of 170-180 miles with 22" wheels? If so, that's not really too bad considering people on 20" wheels...

    Supercharger's "opening soon"

    That's really good. Other chargers should do the same thing. They should have number plate recognition and fine non-electric drivers for parking in the spaces - that drives me crazy!

    Supercharger's "opening soon"

    Where in Grantham is that? I use the train daily and definitely contemplate using this. Albeit I can't really plug it in all day and leave it. That would not be good etiquette!

    Reserving your Model 3 (official Tesla blog)

    OK. So, I've now spoken to Tesla HQ about priority reservations for existing owners and in case this is useful info for anyone you follow the same process online as everyone else, BUT MAKE SURE YOU USE THE SAME EMAIL ADDRESS AS YOU USE FOR YOUR MY TESLA ACCOUNT. Tesla will sort all reservations...

    How do I priority reserve in the UK?

    The stores open in about an hour so I think I'll give them a call. Since there was no earlier process to follow I should still get priority. When it finally comes to the UK that is. I imagine at least 100,000 of those early reservations are in the US and you guys will get it before us. I can't...

    How are they identifying those who want a base 3 as opposed to performance...

    But how will they know if you're a current owner? There is no where on the reservation form to acknowledge this. And - at least here in the UK - there has been no guidance on a separate process, merely a statement that we will get priority. There was no early access.

    How do I priority reserve in the UK?

    ive owned a Model S for 14 months. Got a reservation on a Model X. And want to reserve a Model 3. But I have no idea and have been given no info of priority reservations. Do I just order online like everyone else and somehow later down the line they'll ask or what?

    Buggies / Pushchairs in frunk.

    Tow package vs accessory hitch option

    Another numpty here when it come to towing (and it sounds like the 1.25" is no longer available), but if I plan to get the Tesla bike/ski/snowboard rack thing and potentially also invest in a caravan at some point during my Model X ownership, i assume the Tow Package will allow me to do both...

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    We just ordered ours today so I'll let you know the delivery estimate as soon as I know. Given that it says online that deliveries will be in second half of 2016 and that robin_ says his June order had an eta of September, I suspect no X's will hit our shores until September and orders are low...
