    @dronus, agreed. I installed my matt glass protectors on Saturday. They look good and have not shown much in the way of finger prints so far. Bought them from Aliexpress. Was a bit random but they fit well and went on no problems...

    Well done! Was happy with 130wh/km on drive through Adelaide Hills - Cudlee creek - Lobethal - Lenswood - Norton Summit. 39degrees and plenty of hard climbing. Normally get 113-114 on plains driving to work. 80c of charge for hills trip.😅

    Saw a black one heading south on Frome road crossing Rundle St. Not sure if it was the same one I followed near Broadview.

    Similar delivery times for Yaris hybrid cross. I know someone who waited 18 months. Very poor communication from dealer here in Adelaide.

    Passed a black one a few streets from home. Looked amazing. I think it was a guy I saw this morning at the DC. Great to see another one in the wild.

    Doing the rounds since pickup on way home past the rels. Love this car. First new one so parked down end of Aldi on the way home with sentry on. ADL DC were terrific. Car is spotless of course. No issues at all. Wife got her profile setup - happy. Light show in garage may have been a bit...

    Gotta be Betta places to camp than near the airport but ... Yeah. I'm on the inner North side. Have not made a confirmed sighting of a Highland about town yet but thought I might have glimpsed a white one near prospect oval.

    1829 i got as similar price from Shannons. Had NRMA setup with the NL but changed as Shannons were much less for similar cover.

    @dan_brooks Are you using the Wall Connector? The charge current limit is programmable and should be set to below your circuit breaker limit.

    ADL DC called me today to check the NL was ready to pay prior for pickup Sat. I asked if car was here and they indicated it was "on the way". The DC guy then asked if it arrived early, could I pick up earlier. I am paid up now and just need to call insurance if car is early. I presume I am...

    Have you looked at switching to OVO? They have 8c/kwh Off Peak and a better FIT.

    Wonder if it needs its own app or if it integrates with the car screen/tesla app.

    No. It moved earlier by 1 day and ended up Feb 14 to Mar 6. Delivery day was initially messaged through and set for Feb 20 but the DC contacted me saying that was an error. The day is set for Feb24. If it stays there, then I think I will have been lucky judging by other comments.

    I thought about the Seal myself. No doubt reasonable value for money but I could not quite convince myself in the end. Reviews all seemed to place the software maturity to be low low - in a high tech vehicle that is significant. Maybe in a couple years they should have developed it more but...

    Booked in delivery date today. Feb 24 at Adelaide DC. I was told the car is arriving at DC on Feb 23. A little excited since ordering Sept 2. Hoping others come through quickly also. Its going to be a long 11 days but very happy to have the date. EDD range was Feb 14-Mar 6.

    I found the auto wipers on the 2023 model to sometimes be very good then the next time, next to hopeless. If you tap the end of the stalk, the wiper controls come up a try the bottom of the main screen which was useful but you still do have to look at it. Maybe s/W will improve one day but...

    Absolutely agree how easy it is. Discovered auto-pilot refuses to engage if you exceed a set limit. Fair enough I guess but it was just so easy and a real rush. So much fun not in chill mode with the rental but I think I will be more gentle on mine. I had to pull in at the next services and...

    Dronus, your car looks awesome. The stealth grey is a step up from the old grey. I’ve loved driving the older grey 2023 AWD rental around. It was all I could have asked for. Was a lot of fun scaring the cr@p out of a few passengers with the launch. I should grow up one day. Mrs will have...

    This is a UK RHD car. I have read somewhere LHDs are also on the same side. I vaguely recall seeing this on a blue M3H at the ADL DC.

    I love driving it. Auto pilot is great on highway. Learning a bit each day. I have a charger at my front door where I am. Super convenient. Type 2 plug. An auto frunk add on would be handy for charging this way as getting the cable out in/out can be messy. Between rain drenchings here it...

    Just wondering if anyone has had ceramic coating applied to the windscreen glass? I was planning to until I read the manual that says: ‘To add a hydrophobic coating to your vehicle's windows, apply the coating only to the side and rear windows, not the front windshield—doing so may affect the...

    Chrysler voyager. Sounds like you won’t be needing the centre seat tether unless the next gen are coming. If you drop the 123, rotate that stalk 180 about the column and put the P on the end, get the missus or kids to drive - voila! M3 stork with full auto-pilot if that’s not weird.

    A review here. The Model 3 is similar. Skip to the end to see it fitted and how it is when driving. If that’s for you, watch the installation otherwise save your time. Otrifowd

    I purchased the Owtrifowd 2 retractable shades for convenience. Not in a car yet but they look good. When I get back, I think I need trial them under our skylight while I wait for the car to come off the FA and across to ADL.

    Slow learner here. I’ve been mixing D and R with the stalks on a pre-M3H rental. Nearly hit a pot plant at the AirBnB. It does not feel intuitive to me to flick down for forward and up for reverse but I’ve never driven a column shift. It makes sense if I look at the stalk itself but mostly...
