    Broke charger cable?

    Having a spare cable is a good idea anyway. I have two in my frunk, the original Tesla one and then a significantly longer one I use when I have to park further from the charger or nose first. The advice on getting 32A 3 phase is excellent as that will allow you to take advantage of all types of...

    What's everyones insurance renewals this year?

    I've just renewed my 2 years old TM3 LR with Churchil. I've got email quote of £580 (year ago I've paid £493). I went to Go Compare where I've got cheapest quote of £454.26 (Churchil came up as £495). I did go to chat and after I've given them the quotes they've offered me £438. I said yes. I'm...

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    I've read long time ago that 15 minutes was the life expectancy of a MBT crew in the NATO-Warsaw pact conflict (tactical nuke deployment expected).

    Octopus Smart Meter Experiences

    I'm yet to manage to get smart charger installed, it's been 6 months. The link to book installation never works for me (either no slots or when I've got a slot and click on book it fails with an error). The email support is pathetic, I've emailed [email protected] to actually book a slot (any...

    7 Countries/2000 mile road trip in an SR+ - Observations from the continent

    Thanks for sharing (from a fellow slovakian) living in Edinburgh! I've considered doing the trip this summer in my LR M3 (2021) but Ryanair tickets were too cheap for it so my car is waiting for me in the garage...

    They must. How else are they going to time the cheaper tariff?

    [UK] HAVE YOUR SAY! - Government Electric vehicle charging market study

    Bad idea. Odometer fraught would be rife and unpreventable - some makes and models would be prefered due to their ability to change the odometer readings easily. Also a second point - what you do about cars that were driven outside UK say France, etc? Clearly they would be taxed twice - for road...

    Home charger in block of flats?

    I've offered i but nothing was required and hence there were no legal costs. I've not see it yet. As I control the electricity supply to it I have a fuse box for it next to my meter I can disconnect if I happens in the future and I go away for longer etc. But if a neighbour would ask me to use...

    Home charger in block of flats?

    I live in a roughly 80 flats development with underground parking (with designated space for each flat). I had the charger installed about a month ago (£1600 after EV charger grant). It was a complicated install (30m of cable connected to my flat meter on the 4th floor). I probably could have...

    Tesla Referral Code Please [the one and only UK thread]

    I'm close to pulling the trigger and ordering TM3. At what point of the order do you enter the referral code? If anyone PM me one I'm happy to enter yours. To make it fair I'll enter the third one PMed to me.

    Watch Tesla Model 3 Navigate On Autopilot: New UI Images + Videos

    Share the sentiment. Driving like that here in the UK would land me in a very hot water with the police. When there is no traffic in the right lane the autopilot should recognize that and sugest a line change.

    UK Delivery Estimate Change

    There is a facebook TM3 UK group and someone there has recently quoted an official response from a person from Tesla in Amsterdam concerning UK deliveries. The answer he has got was that the pricing and configurator for TM3 in UK should come towards the end of the year. Deliveries should start...

    Using the Model 3 for AC vs Central AC Unit

    This. Since AC runs on electricity it actually generates heat (into which all used electricity is converted to). So you do need to duck somehow that excess heat to outside of the house.

    Energy savings trust loan

    I'm confused, do you have the car? I.e., can you pay the car outright and then get £35K back from the energy savings trust or do you need to wait until they send £35K to Tesla to get the car?

    Energy savings trust loan

    I plan to get the energy savings trust loan for my model 3 if the scheme still runs next year. I'm bracing for the pain in the butt it involves :(
