    Buying a Model S at UK auction

    How about this one. Still got remainder of 4yr warranty, relatively low mileage and in great condition. And probably open to sensible offers too... Tesla Model S 85D Autopilot, Free Supercharging & Tax, Air Suspension, Outstanding condition throughout! from R Symons Ltd

    Model S New Badging for New 2019 Models

    This is the conversation I've had with SC regarding my incoming Long Range Ludicrous Performance Model S... Do you know how the vehicle is going to be badged now that it's called Model S "Ludicrous Performance" rather than "P100D"? Your Model S will come with the P100D badge.

    Looking at the used market for a Tesla Model S

    Could be perfect timing..... I'm looking for a buyer of my 2016 MS85D in May! Will be top end of your budget though... 37,000 miles, owned and cherished from new with free supercharging! Shown here with my 21s on, but it'll be back to the stock 19s for sale. Worth a conversation?

    Model S and X price and option changes in the UK

    I'm hoping not, I ordered one at 1am this morning!

    Hi...and help!

    I've got a 2016 S85D just about to need a new home - may be that timing might work for us both to benefit from a private sale... PM if interested in discussing further!

    Would you want to drive your Tesla on track?

    Maybe for a little pootle, but not for a proper razz. Did that once in my RS5 and regretted it when I shredded my tyres and buggered front suspension

    MX P90D...wow

    Think it'll probably be limited, so don't think you'll find out now either!

    What have I done...?

    Due to the exponential increase in buying an equivalent to my 2016 MS85D, a new MS100D feels prohibitively expensive. So, I've stuck a deposit down on next year's Audi e-tron. Anyone else done/considering?

    Referral Credits?

    21” Referral arachnids are ON !

    Yes, had to send a couple of chasing emails to [email protected] and [email protected]. My 3rd referral was confirmed delivered in December. I then chased at end of January, and beginning of Feb to the above email addresses. Received (fairly) prompt responses, ultimately with a...

    Centre Left Air Vent - not blowing

    Thanks for the reply. Had a good look in there with a torch, and, as you've suggested, looks like the mechanism has become detached somehow. Car is in for some other remedial work in a couple of weeks, will get the SC to sort this too!

    Centre Left Air Vent - not blowing

    The centre left air vent on the dash isn't venting/blowing on my MS. So, out of the 4 front facing dash vents, only 3 are working. All vents are in the open position. Is this just a me issue?

    That's me priced out of a Models S

    I'm just pleased to have ordered when I did back in December. For a like-for-like spec, albeit mine being an 85D vs a 90D (but what's 20 odd miles between friends), the cost on the configurator today is £10k more than my final invoice value! Prices certainly do appear to have ramped up...

    Paint Quality on Pick Up

    Needn't have worried (phew!).... paintwork was in great condition and I've now treated it to a home detail with Gtechniq products! Looks fab! The only major issue I've had is grit in the window mechanism which caused scratches on the rear door glass when opened. The glass was changed on a...

    Paint Quality on Pick Up

    Thanks for the replies. @bryand those swirls look a bit of a nightmare, although as you say, the bright light is highlighting them more than normal....be interested to get a post-detail update from you. In the meantime, Birmingham have promised to lavish extra attention, so watch this space!

    Paint Quality on Pick Up

    Hi All How was the paintwork of your MS on pick up? I've had bad experiences with new cars before with swirls and scratches in the paintwork due to a poor effort by the supplying dealer. Do I need to worry about this with Tesla? Don't know if I'd be safer taking my new 85D away from them...
