    500Wh/mile normal for short trips?

    Doesn't sound dissimilar to my S if I don't preheat, saw it peak at 800 last week on a very cold morning for an emergency 5 miles school run.

    UK PCP's and Residuals

    Worth noting that Free SuC is attached to car for life, so you would keep that. But currently you get it on a new build anyway.

    UK PCP's and Residuals

    Sounds like you're in exactly the same situation as me. Mine is that kind of vehicle that were I used car shopping I would be beside myself with joy to find condition and mileage wise. AP2/3 doesn't bother me, as it's so nerfed by regulations, and I would have less of a feature set "today" were...

    UK PCP's and Residuals

    For a bit of context, my MS will be at the end of its PCP next November. In 2016 when I took it out, I got an amazing GFV, so I am looking at the Tesla site now starting to size up what the vehicle is possibly going to be worth, vs the buy out price at the end of the term. Net, net you can buy a...

    New Deliveries, check your UMC contains a 3 pin UK plug!

    No mines a 2016, so earlier UMC.

    New Deliveries, check your UMC contains a 3 pin UK plug!

    Top tip: Don't assume as you have an EU adaptor it will work on the continent. I did a 1500 mile France trip this summer, and was advised I need 2 different adaptors, the two adaptors look virtually identical, the difference is that one operates on a reverse polarity so depending on where you...

    2019.32.1 update just installed

    Also Keyfob security update if you have the V2 key, which I don't, only V1 which was apparently upto date.

    French Road Trip

    Its the destination chargers that I worry about. The owners of the properties are perfectly within their rights to deny access to public, but the messaging about them "alludes" to accessibility. There are 5 within a 10 mile radius of my location here, the first has been physically removed for...

    French Road Trip

    So to answer my own question re. french supercharger traffic, half way in to our trip down near La Rochelle, and its been super easy, never queued, most cars I saw on any one charger was me being the 4th vehicle at the 8 stall in Nantes. Super easy! Just watch the destination chargers, as its...

    French Road Trip

    Yeah I've driven thousands of miles in UK vehicles in France over the years and never had any issues with lights, but I HAVE seen how busy the french autoroute network can get when it appears everyone in Europe all use its network to move around, hence my original question about Superchargers...

    French Road Trip

    End of August we're off on a road trip to Ile de Re near La Rochelle. I haven't had our Model S over in France during the summer, and wondered if anyone had any experience of how busy the Superchargers get? Specifically I'll be routing thru Mont Saint-Michel, Nantes, Poitiers and Le Mans. I've...

    Uncorking official for most 75Ds!

    Wow so your visit was worthwhile... did they give you any detail on what they were looking for to differentiate between the previous response of no, and now being uncorked? (I'll be emailing the SC right now ;) )

    Uncorking 75Ds in the UK

    I dunno, I take a different view... if ALL UK cars are the same... UK just has 5.2 75D's... level playing field... besides, personally I let Tesla take the risk by using one of their PCP's... I'll be... whats the word... "irritated"... if it proves to be some not all... I still think there is...

    Uncorking 75Ds in the UK

    Well we are a pretty small sample at the moment, need more data points... personally I bought a 5.2 sec car.... yes I would be delighted if it could do more... but its still the car I bought. My money is still on "internal communication issues" ;)

    Uncorking 75Ds in the UK

    I guess it depends on what the part in question is and where it lives, the other threads on here seem to suggest its battery related or a fuse which I read (and stand to be corrected) which lives in the battery... I checked my battery part no. 1088794-00-A earlier which is the same as a part...

    Uncorking 75Ds in the UK

    So another "DENIED" on my UK S75D... Its a Dec16 deliver with VIN 160XXX... what I find interesting is 2 things talking to both SC and Tesla Support in email: 1. My battery's part number is identical to vehicles being approved elsewhere in the world 2. The language from both is a very specific...
