    Car broken into, mobile charger and the cable that connects me to other non-tesla chargers stolen. What are my options?

    It was my fault really. I didn't close the door firmly and had push notifications turned off. Don't know why. Anyway, when I came back those are the two most expensive things that were taken. Should i bite the bullet and fork out £250 for another mobile charger? I've begun charging at home...

    Outrage, sadness as bears locked in Model 3 in 100℉ weather perish.

    Viewers may find the following images distressing. In a tragic story, news outlets were alerted to a ... They were in my glove compartment. They were of the gummy variety in an open packet and I'm sad to have to report that succumbed to the summer heat. Each bear melted inside the packet and...

    From UK, living in Europe for a year. My 90 days European third party insurance has almost ended. What to do?

    I am very lost. I bought a M3 in December of 2021 via my company (of which I am sole director) not knowing that I'd be going abroad travelling the next year. I live and have property in London but I also have an Irish passport and I've been travelling round Europe. I took the car because I...

    Wing mirror replacement cost? DIY repair??

    RIght hand drive Model 3 from the UK. A tesla service centre is quoting me ~530 Euros to replace it. It seems steep but I’ve not much to compare it to. I do remember that when I looked at getting a scratched skull cap replaced I found somewhere willing to send me one for about ten quid so...

    Anyone have a recommendation for an awning/canopy/sunsail for my M3 with no roof rack?

    A lot of them seem to need a roof rack; all I want is something that I can put up quickly to give me a bit of shade and, perhaps attach to the car. Here are a few I've found; this is 92 quid and I'm skeptical. w the actual f ... ? this calls itself a gazebo and looks like a massive...

    European road trip. Is there any reason why this wouldn't work?

    I did search and read but there are so many acronyms and I can't seem to find a straight answer. It wants me to buy all sorts of adaptors but then I'd also have to buy extension leads since I don't know how far I'll be away from power in an AirBNB. Going from tesla cable to Uk adaptor to...

    Location of ventilation holes for camp mode?

    I'm gonna follow my bliss* through continental Europe. I don't know whether this will actually happen but I like the *idea* of being able to sleep in my car. I know that I'm meant to find places that will allow me to sleep but let's just say - hypothetically - for the sake of argument - by the...

    Pasta lost down side of seat. Write off?

    Guys. A while ago I ate pasta inside the car at an M&S petrol station near Stansted airport because my friend's flight was late and I'd already taken the wrong exit at the roundabout and had to paid a tenner just to go straight through Stansted pick up and I didn't want to do it again. Anyway...

    London driving. Frequent very loud alerts. Lane departure? Avoidance? Driving me crazy.

    I'm a careful driver. Driving in London means driving down two lane streets with cars parked either side turning the whole thing into a one lane street which you have to navigate. There are busses that you have to indicate and move around. Basically everything is very tight. Each time I've...

    Anyone bought a desk for the M3? Aliexpress has them at 50£ (Or 25 + 25 shipping). Are they worth it?

    I can’t find any alternatives that aren’t the flimsy-jam-under-the-steering-wheel kind. Here’s the sort of one I’m looking for. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mtHdAhk The non-generic ones are eighty (eighty!) quid.
