S is the same

Haven't followed the last 30 odd pages of this thread (about 12 hours worth :p ), but saw some home charging questions. In any case, we had our HPWC for our S wired on a 30amp circuit with its own circuit breaker to the off peak (we don't have time of day metering). So we charge on off peak...

agree. never had a problem in our S - even on 45 degree day on Movieworld trip!

tracking sheet has 3 delivery calls to sydney orders... I am in same position

Get some insurance quotes - that will kill time and your soul. And find a good window tint mob....

I just went through the aus rego , NSW licence provision and delivery location info on website. Specified payment method, address, rego and licence details. No vin yet though...

Love the thinking.... my Model 3 desktop background

Once you have an EV for a while you realise range anxiety is a non-issue. Start every day with a "full tank" (oversimplification with the 80% charge recommendation). On long trips the superchargers are brilliant (and 1000 time better than public infrastructure), and the stops are shorter and...

Waiheke island ferry (and Onetangi beach) Auckland - nice midnight silver model x p100d xtesla

I was in turramurra too. At least a dozen on bonnet, and a few on the roof rails, doors and rear quarter. Our ute was at st Ives and got at least 50! Seems the north shore was particularly bad. Our insurer originally had us booked with a repair shop, but there are so many that there is a special...

To answer your questions - the aluminum seemed to fair better than steel. They weren't side by side, and I had towels on tesla, but my Toyota it totally trashed (dozens of craters dents) The glass took the full brunt, including the pano sunroom - held it off. Saw others in area with windows...

Got caught in the sydney hailstorm yesterday. Towels didn't save the tesla from a beating. Golf ball sized hail has left golf ball sized dents.... so sad

Sidewall puncture

Just looked. It's a current rear drive and has Pimacy3 - tesla aren't charging $350 - more like $650, and an extra $60 for fitting (one tire). I thought tesla doesn't mark up parts that way?

I have heard that the factory 19" michelins are $650 each from tesla. Has anyone had experience with the 19's?

can't see any major new functionality, but it does look neater. Shows total odometer and vin. Can use Touch ID for keyless driving

Thanks for the great community spirit. Do you have a car on the way?

Hi ho apartments at broadbeach have 3 phase HPWC tesla charger, and I was able to use it for a bottle of wine ;-)

Correct. The ETA on the NAV was wrong by an hour (suspect it was wrong since sydney). The charge time calculations to "continue your trip" have been spot on - and as I said, as convenient as gas. Before buying the car we were thinking hour long stops all over the place. But the ~200km gaps are...

I am sure a few have done the full trip by now, but I thought I would share my experiences. Have just done the run from Sydney to Gold Coast in a base model S 70. The chargers are in great locations - around 2 hours apart for "stop, revive, survive" (and with kids in the car, it is for sanity...

The knockrow charger is right next to the highway, but the new bypasses mean a few km round trip to get into the charger. If you give it a full charge here the computer reckons I can get to noosa!

2.50.114 - I have attached a screen with AP over limit, and acceleration through both limit and autopilot

Not sure if this is the exact scenario, but in Australiawe can set autopilot higher than posted speed, and accelerate through it (see pic for higher setting, but not road speed).

Not sure if there is a thread on this already, but was planning on going to the Motorworld sydney show this weekend. There are tesla events Friday ("performance day") and a self drive opportunity on Saturday (I guess most owners got the email) More info at: Friday 2 Dec Performance Day -...

A friend had a problem at the scenic railway too. There is a tesla charger at the Hydromagestic hotel. And a ChargePoint 6kw at the Fairmont Laura (Adaptor needed)

Very happy Elon continues to push the bounds of innovation My brand new AP1 is still the best car I have ever owned, and is years ahead of every single car owned by all my friends and family. It will be years before my car is outclassed by a BMW etc, and it will have many software upgrades to...

Ned meets Scarlett ...

Picked up our new Model S (yay) and seems there is a new charge port surround for oz. The charge lights are now located to the left and directly next to of the socket (not in the taillight). Similar to the US lights. And it auto opens when pressed (and still with charger button too). And auto...

No probs. I will pm one to you

The order number was 6886 (the person was Lyndsay - [email protected]). I will also PM my details. I just had them cut the letter parts from a small sheet to make a sign 50cm wide.

I saw a Tesla themed home charger setup in the Nick Howe book, and thought it would be good to recreate in oz. Not sure if there is an oz thread on this already, but thought I would share the details. The closest colour to the Benjamin Moore Neon Red I found in Oz was Taubmans Renegade...

My understanding is that the tail (the end of the UMC) that plugs in to stuff has circuitry to cap the amps. So a normal aussie household 3 prong end on the UMC will cap at 10 Amps. To get more you need a European tail that allows more amps though, and then an adapter from European to aussie 3...

My owner advisor has just secured me a spot. What great service! See you there

BTW I didn't get an invite ;-(. I will have to stand with my face pressed against the glass

Hoarding is down and new store in Martin place is ready for opening. A nice red facelift in the window

Probably I should let someone answer that knows what they are talking about. But I will let you know my understanding. (Not that my tesla has arrived yet). The charge port can be opened from screen. When the wall charger gets switched on by the off peak, it waits a random amount of time before...

Yep. Order went in end March - and 7 day confirmation made it early April. Latest website said "late July - August". Delivery guys have said it may enter production in a few weeks.

My 70 order (end March) was on track for end June (with facelift), but now been pushed to end July-August due to "parts shortage".
