    Model X Price increase

    When I went to the Tesla Store, the staff brought a valuation from the AutoTrader website and said that they will match it but then when I ordered they claimed I misunderstood and that they could offer £xxx which was £2000. I believe if you are trading in a Tesla, the residuals are quite high...

    Model X Price increase

    Tesla valued my part-ex for 90 days but the 90 days are over and the car isn't here. I will get a new quote but I noticed on the Tesla website that they guarantee to match the Auto-Trader valuation or beat it which puts my cars £2k more than the original value Tesla stated when we got our...

    Another Price Hike

    Didn't they go up by £2000 today?

    Did August & September sales EVER happen before and will they ever happen again?! 30K+ Discounts?

    The impact options have on your residual are slim to none here in the UK. If I was to look at an ICE for example the BMW 5 series before and after facelift price for the same registration (we use registration instead of model year), the difference is around £500 more for a facelift with the same...

    Used Tesla UK pricing?

    VED change will be for cars registered after April 1st but there will be a grace period I believe if your order is late (until mid-April)

    Tesla De-Badge

    If you were to upgrade your battery from 60 to 75 then Tesla change the badges on the car which made me wonder if they would be able to de-badge the car? I find the Model S and 60 too much on the back of the car, debadging gives a clean look. There was no option on the design studio but maybe...

    Enhanced Autopilot - Extra Costs

    It will be interesting to see what your accountant says, maybe if you were to take over the HP then only have the taxable benefit being the £15k or £10k (if you made a £5k capital contribution) so in reality (assuming 40% rate) BIK £4k-6k

    Enhanced Autopilot - Extra Costs

    Is the car on finance or bought with cash? I think as long as it wasn't "gifted" then there wouldnt be a taxable benefit except for the deposit made by the company but i have no idea

    Enhanced Autopilot - Extra Costs

    Have you financed the car or bought with cash? Will more tax be incurred if you buy it off the company (i.e. taxable benefit)?

    Enhanced Autopilot - Extra Costs

    I have someone else as my DS but I've ordered a Model S. You should contact your DS and they will be able to make the correct changes! So far I have been rather disappointed with Tesla and their CS, at times its good (just like my experience with ICE dealers (except porsche as they are beyond...

    Enhanced Autopilot - Extra Costs

    From what I have read, all Model S cars have AP2 Hardware fitted since 10/10 and all Model X cars have AP2 since 17/10. I ordered AP1 and my car is yet to go into production so I have the choice to upgrade to AP2 (enhanced auto-pilot (£2000 extra) and self-drive (£3000 on top of £2k) if I want...

    Home Charging

    Thanks for all your help! I'm kind of tempted to buy the type 2 to type 2 cable which allows the port door to be opened with the button but costs €250 i believe.. If we don't use tesla chargers (I assume tesla charger with the button release stop the car from charging at that point), do we need...

    Home Charging

    Thanks for all the help! I'm thinking of going for the EO or PodPoint charger or maybe Rolec. EO are a new company who are meant to have very good customer service That being said, I heard the same about Tesla but the customer service has been beyond awful

    Home Charging

    Being a newbie to EVs, its a minefield when it comes to home charging. I've had a browse through past posts with regards to home chargers and I'm still a bit confused. I'm thinking of getting a pod-point charger installed but I was wondering what the point of the Tesla Mobile Connector is? Do...

    Post Brexit Price Increase Due 1st October?

    If I'm being honest, so far tesla has offered a rather below par customer service, I have found Merc and BMW have been a lot better and I have never spent more than £35k at either of the two not £70k like tesla... The supposed up to 15% price increase when only 3% is the tip of the iceberg-...

    New Tesla Purchase

    Thanks for all the responses! Fortunately, where I live actually has the most electric car chargers in the UK so all is good there, just need to get an adapter for the quick chargers!

    New Tesla Purchase

    With the used cars, will I be able to get the 100% FYA as I'm buying the car via my business as its more tax efficient! Should I worry about re-sale values if CPO is cheap already?! I thought the Model S had pretty good depreciation. If I'm being honest, the only reason I want the premium pack...
