    At what point will this affect lease vehicles. I am hopefully ordering mine shortly.

    Tesla Model S CPU/GPU

    Has the CPU/GPU been upgraded at all since the original 2012 models? Does it run the Tegra 3? If so it must be due an upgrade soon.

    Home charging advice.

    Thats what I was thinking, been with British Gas about 7 years and never had to ring them once. For that price I have to give them a try. My house is 8 years old and has a modern meter, do I have to change it for E7?

    Home charging advice.

    Hi Tony, I have been looking at economy 7 as I am about to order my 85D :) extraenergy have a good deal which is 17.59p standing charge, 11.632p daytime and 6.274p nighttime. I pay British Gas 11.2p electric all the time and about 24p standing charge so the extraenergy deal would be fantastic...

    Speculation re: next major Model S upgrade announcement

    If I ordered my model S in November with a February delivery but they started making a new model in January do you get the new model automatically?

    Speculation re: next major Model S upgrade announcement

    I would just like to see an upgrade from the Tegra 3 chipset. Does the Model X have a newer CPU/GPU?

    I just got a quote from the NFU for an 85D. £546. Try them.

    New owner question - can I leave the car unplugged to drain the battery?

    Can you plug your Tesla in when you get home from work and set it to charge 1am to 4am each day to 90% and it cuts off at 90% or cuts off at 4am whatever is first?

    Tesla 90D vs 85D

    Is the 90D any faster than the 85D? I know the 85D is faster than the 70D due to voltage differences, just wondering if that applies to the higher density of the 90D?

    Need to decide - Sell me the 70D

    Yeah its a lease I will be getting. I am running the figures on 4 years as well. Cant afford 3 years. To be honest if I can run a Model S for 4 - 5 years I will be very happy :)

    70D confusion...

    I am a handy guy with electronics, is it easy to put a sub woofer in yourself?

    Need to decide - Sell me the 70D

    I would charge to 90% for about 49 weeks of the year but on road trips I would need to charge to 100% for the other 2 or 3 weeks. Is that acceptable?

    Need to decide - Sell me the 70D

    Thanks. I would typically arrive at a supercharger with 50-60 miles left if I set off with 220 miles according to Goole Maps. So 40 minutes should return it back to 210-220 by the looks of things. That would be perfect.

    Need to decide - Sell me the 70D

    I could probably stretch to 4 years but 3 would be too much. Your spot on tho, coming from a 320D is going to be immense lol. 100 miles charge in an hour would make some trips quite long! I would start a long trip with full charge from home.

    Need to decide - Sell me the 70D

    I currently have a BMW 320D Efficient Dynamics and the lease finishes mid January 2016 so I need to order my Tesla shortly. I will be getting a lease car again and I will be keeping this Tesla for 5 years, this is the best deal I have found: Tesla Model S Hatchback 70KWH Dual Motor 5DR [Nav]...

    Thinking about getting one of these

    It does really well between March - November. I am one of the lucky ones who gets the maximum FIT from 2011. We had them fitted on our house and mother in laws and it brings in nearly £4000 a year in FIT between the 2 plus good savings on electricity.

    70D confusion...

    Yeah I timed my 0-60 in my BMW 320D today and it was about 11 seconds. The 70D is half that!

    As the 85D?
  21. Spit

    Help the wife and I decide between the 70D or the 85!

    Yes the ladies mostly want to know about safety and how the car fits into the family dynamic. I just want it to go fast and it has a cool 17" touch screen :)

    70D confusion...

    Ah right, sussed it now and they don't look that different. Think a standard 70D with sound upgrade will be good for me :)

    70D confusion...

    Sorry I meant the seats and HiFi I would select as extras on top. Are the next gen seats parts of the premium interior and lighting pack?
  24. Spit

    70D confusion...

    What extras come as standard? Keep reading places that it's the most featured Tesla that comes as standard. I want to get one with the HiFi pack and next gen seats. Would that make it a pretty full featured Tesla? Range isnt a huge issue so I would rather have a more decked out 70D than a...

    Do you need a different meter for economy 7?

    Thinking about getting one of these

    I am hopefully going to get a 70D in the new year. The 6p overnight rate sounds great, is it more expensive during the day than normal tariffs? I pay about 14p currently but I also have solar panels for the day. I do about 15,0000 miles a year so if I can get a 6p rate thats 900 miles a year or...

    70D range vs 85 dealer says they are almost the same range

    On the Tesla website the quoted range for the 70D is 275 miles but everywhere else it's 240 miles. Why is that?

    UK Lease Deals?

    Thanks. I am employed and always have lease cars through my employer. Don't have a big deposit so 6 up front payments is the limit, hand the car back after 5 years and walk away. I claim the 45p per mile allowance which helps :) I average 14,000-15,000 miles a year. I currently have a BMW 320D...

    UK Lease Deals?

    Is this a pretty good deal for a 70D? 60 months, 15,000 miles, 6 payments up front and £545+VAT per month. Its from the lease company that Tesla recommends.

    Potential 70D customer - UK charging/range question

    Do you have a range of less than 200 miles in the UK with the 60Kw? Do you lose battery power if you leave the car for a few days? Sometimes I might not use it from Friday to Tuesday for instance.

    Potential 70D customer - UK charging/range question

    Thanks Martin good to hear from a UK Tesla owner. Ever since my test drive I cannot stop thinking about this car! I will research EV electric tariffs as I am currently on the British Gas internet tariff and I think its about 13p. I also have solar panels and work mainly from home so can charge...
