    Home Charging

    I got one, knew it would cost more than a OLEV-granted-one but thought it looks more sexy. You get the unit itself from your local service centre, you can pick it up or they can courier it out to you - if you go through Tesla's 'recommended installers' they can buy it on your behalf if they...

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    Indeed, credit where it is due, even ~10 months before pulling the trigger the crowd at Bluewater in my case has been nothing short of amazing, basically insuring they do whatever they need to do to get me to into the car I want, the same story for my DS, and subsequently the ServiceCentre...

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    Thanks DJP31 :) I am collecting from Gatwick - said bye to my Mercedes E-class last week too! Totally agree - 3 months in theory is not bad at all - as for the timelines though, don't bet on MyTesla, it shifts all the time as you can see! As for PCP - I'm using the tesla-Alpera-lot, the final...

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    So true! The OCD'ness gets quite bad - from ordering to just after production I maybe checked MyTesla 4x a day - picking up the car on Tuesday has resulted me in reloading that page at least once a hour (I unlocked the 'all tickmarks in the 'todo' list just this hour!) :)

    Autopilot on UK roads

    Thanks for that - Out of interest, how does it deal with motorcycles coming past on either side whilst in queued traffic? Or cars jumping the gap between you and the car in front from the side? Or worse still.. if it 'follows' a motorcycle who decides it had enough and goes between the cars...

    Autopilot on UK roads

    Current car is on a lease for another 18 months so practically speaking I should wait, will see how that turns out though! :)

    Autopilot on UK roads

    I did the BIG mistake of going for a MS test drive the weekend on the A2/M2, did a good ~15 miles in AP and it is *fantastic*, as referred to above, it's a bit like a kid learning to drive, if roadmarkings are not as clear it starts being hesitant/unsure of it'self but it warns you clearly...

    Thank you - I think that sums it up very well :)

    Autopilot on UK roads

    Hi, How does AP handle itself with stop/start morning commute traffic? That is the stuff that makes me tired!

    Another newbie - sizing & tax

    Thank you - I saw 3 MS's on Saturday as it is (maybe I should not have checked out the superchargers at Oxford services) and it's enough to contend with *grin*. Thanks, that is very informative, especially the seats. It's my understanding that the sunroof adds a bit of headroom? My dream car...

    Another newbie - sizing & tax

    Thanks for your response tfboy, yup I fully expected that one as it's the same for ICE cars currently - clearly we need to change jobs, be a Uber LUX driver or maybe park the car somewhere and use it as your office (3G right? :P). Thanks! Glad someone else is asking the same questions :) I...

    Another newbie - sizing & tax

    Thanks WannabeOwner for your thoughts, appreciated! I do like that ManMaths - certainly the savings should go into the options :) Thanks a ton for this, from what I've read it seems like quite a few people go for the 'company buys the car, I pay the "fuel"' method, your maths are not too far...

    Another newbie - sizing & tax

    Hello Teslians, First off, I'm currently purely a wannabe but have been following Musk and his companies for many years. I'm not a 'green' person whatsoever (in fact, the quicker we kill this planet the faster we will be motivated to get off it, but Elon Musk is working on that too), however...
