Tesla Owners Group UK now has 615 members :biggrin: I'll see if I can copy this link to our group to see what response we get :cool:

It's been done before check this thread :biggrin:

Looks weird tyre pressure was ok ? Go back and look at the pot hole take some pictures and seek damages from the council . youve had the car six weeks and this is your first post , naughty boy :scared:

I've only charged at home . Not been anywhere to charge up . We bought one chadamo adapter between the two of us as my car will be doing school run and the occasional long trip or holiday . How easy is it to lift the rear seats ?

Well I haven't paid for a second charger and you only benefit from a second charger if you have 3 phase supply available . 32 amp isn't a problem for a 3 pin commando socket

My 70d collected last Monday is currently outside charging 22mi/HR 236v 32/32A

A second charger is now only a service centre add on not a manufacturer option anymore

So got them today :biggrin:

Bank transfer for us . My brother deals with our accounts and asked for Tesla bank details 2 weeks ago . He copied bank details and returned copy asking for confirmation which didn't arrive .

Talked to Jessica about picking our cars up a week on Monday after seeing my car in the back lot

We've just had the free 32 amp 7kw sockets fitted at our houses . the advantage of the pod point is it's a tethered cable , but they want wifi to spy on your usage :crying: looking for type 2 - type 2 cables for out and about charging not sure about the EVKing tesla type 2 - type 2 being worth...

Maybe a bit more

Anybody else go ? took a friend of mine who's a motor racing driver and instructor. One of the Tesla guys asked him what's the best car he'd driven and my mate replied it would have to be the maclaren P1 which he was getting paid to drive on a mclaren corporate day at silverstone . Tesla guy...

Went to the do at Stockport last night and thought I recognised the number on a grey model S in the compound they parked guests in checked my tesla and it's my car :cool: Now im getting excited :biggrin:

Stockport opening who's going tonight? I've got n invite as we're picking up ur cars from there the week after next . anyone on here going ?

finance , my brother sorts our accounts. I think we're putting £20 k down on each car then paying £1000 each car per month iirc

Think we paid 99p and got 2 referral codes the guy was very helpful so happy with the deal .

Must be coming on the same boat as ours as we where offered the 18th as our delivery date

Yes ! Ive got a low emissions Audi A6 Avant that isn't low emissions! Purchasing is more for tax reasons if I'm totaly honest , but we own a plastic recycling business and we have PV systems at home so we're a pretty green family ( we recycle 50 tonnes a week of industrial waste plastic )

No it's just I'm to busy to pick it up until th Monday :mad: ill sleep just fine it's only a car !

Wednesday evening

Had a phone call from Manchester service centre saying I could pick my car up on the 18th December but it'll be the 21st so it's fully open. ive also received an invit to opening event next week

Just had a phone call ! Our cars ready to collect 18th December but we can't pick up till 21st

Met the sales guys today :biggrin: looks like a tidy little set up . they say service will be up and running first week of December for deliveries , result . they had a nice midnight silver car on display , nice .

Off work tomorrow so I think I'll have a blast over to Stockport to have a noisy around with my Mrs before going into Manchester - - - Updated - - - Off work tomorrow so I think I'll have a blast over to Stockport to have a noisy around with my Mrs before going into Manchester

Yes must have been sold or still on registered cars , that's why my brother and I ended up getting TE55LAM and TE55LAC unless you've got big pockets .

So a month ago I was told end of November and then yesterday a member of the " delivery experience team" said not till the beginning of January :crying: disappointing as my delivery date is currently 27 th December. Anybody know a bit more detail/ connected ?

Mines due for delivery end of December and delivery specialist says will be ok for Stockport collection

Really good write up thanks

just spoke to Ash my delivery specialist and car should be here for end of year , my brother didn't confirm his order until a week after me but his car won't go into production until next week when mine was built last week. check your email and talk to your delivery specialist and he can tell...

Just checked my order status and vehicle has left production and is now in transit :biggrin: but delivery now December/ January :confused:

So what cards are people using ? seen the wiki link page thingy but not updated since March wont be going far from Manchester for a while but want to know what's needed before getting the travel model S style bug :biggrin:

No birminham is closest serve centre until Stockport goes live before the end of the year , hope it's sorted before our cars ready for delivery saving us a trip :biggrin: only sales at knutsford

With Teslas finance comp guarantying 50percent cost of car and 47 percent cost of upgrades buy back after 3 yrs it'll be a while . Its a marketing ploy to give us first and second wave purchasers a bit of assurance our cars aren't going to depreciate off the face of the earth , but if all things...

How long you had your car ? Your thoughts , highs ,lows, charging, journeys etc .

As the £5000 ev rebate fund is about to run out I'm sure sales will falter for a while but when I tell business associates about getting a model S they all seem very interested when you tell them they can have M5 performance and quality for only £70 a month BIK

I know it's probably been asked / talked about already buy where are you folks charging ? im over in BOLTON and need to start reaserching best places to charge . still can't believe the nearest supercharger is in Northwich 25 miles from Manchester :cursing:

I've gone for it I can see my kids wanting to go in the back as often as they're allowed . with the frunk to store the family junk / reusable shopping bags etc the boot will be free of clutter so no excuse for them not to . Ive got fancy lights etc on my A6 so I'm happy to have them on my Tesla...

Had a great time :biggrin: free drinks canapés etc good presentation by uk head honcho and a passenger blast ludicrous :love::love::love::cursing: internal organs have now returned to where they should be can't wait till mine comes in December even if it's only a 70 d :rolleyes:

Anyone on here going tonight ? im going taking a mate to show him what I'm getting all excited about:biggrin:

unfotunatly our power system does not work well , hundreds of wind turbines in Scotland but no way to move the power down to where it's needed Most of the UK's renewable just there as reserve power as its to expensive to turn off " proper " power stations!! large subsidies payed to wind farms...

I got my invite to knutsford for 1st October I rang the sales team as I couldn't confirm my attendance and they didn't know what was going to happen as they'd just found out them selves . im a future 70d owner late December delivery me and my bro bought our private plates yesterday sad or what...

the thing is it's a way of converting electric into some other form of carbon neutral fuel source . So if all the surplus wind or solar was turned into hydrogen rather than just switching the renewables off then it would make sense lMO . It can then be used in commercial vehicles where battery...

We've gone 70d as the extra £8000 for the bigger battery seems a lot and when the gigafactory gets going we expect battery prices to drop so if we feel the need we hope it'll be a lot cheaper to upgrade in a few years
