Thanks for the reply. Gratifying to know that it is doable. I don't normally stop during this journey and would quite like to continue with that. I agree that the many speed restricted stretches , particularly on the M6, would considerably lower the average speed over the entire journey. I must...

I have a fairly regular journey of 250 miles, Cheshire to Kent - virtually all motorway (M6/M1/M25/M20), barring a few miles either end of journey. I would be interested to know if an M3/LR could manage this journey in one hit - I am a very sedate driver and happy to poodle along at 60-65mph if...

Interesting replies - thanks guys

In view of this recent change, I would be interested to know (as a potential, still sitting on the fence, M3 buyer) if there is any noticeable difference (apart from the obvious visual one) in the 18" aeros and these 19" sports wheels - I am referring specifically to range difference and ride...

Thanks for that truly heart warming post - you've just singlehandedly restored my faith in human nature.

Don't know how many people have read this.... Tesla improves Model 3's interior cabin noise in latest production cars

I think you have misunderstood my post - I was trying to say that I find it quite extraordinary that a £50k Premium car can't even match the build quality of a 10-year old run-of-the-mill Toyota!

Brilliant! I applaud you - best laugh I've had for ages.

To be honest I don't think door jambs on a car is something I have really taken much notice of. However, out of curiosity, I have just gone outside to look at the door jambs on my wife's 10 year old Toyota Yaris. The paintwork on all 4 is perfect! Given that I seem to recall paying £6,000 for...

At the ripe old age of 44 you really are most certainly NOT an old fart - these words come from someone who can make a legitimate claim to that title!

That's great news! Looking forward to your review plus lots of photos!

Quite so - I knew about it because of the countless videos on youtube I have watched ever since the M3 hit the streets of California and beyond! I'm hopeful, rightly or wrongly, that once all the waiting lists have been fulfilled, that Tesla will be increasing it's model range configurations...

Well, notwithstanding everything that has already been said, there surely must be a demand for the longest possible range without the requirement for AWD - I'm sure I am not the only person in the UK who wants that!

I guess it's a learning curve for any of us who have little or no prior knowledge or experience of EVs - I very much put myself in that category. I think it's a case of finding the right model that best suits our own individual circumstances. Whichever model, or indeed make, I eventually decide...

I realise there is logic in their decision to limit the model range in order to maximise revenues and whittle away the waiting lists as quickly as possible - fortunately I am not in a hurry to switch to an EV, otherwise I would probably have taken the same route as yourself. In the meantime I...

Thanks for that valuable info - you certainly know more about this stuff than me!

You have pretty much summed up my reasons for wanting the LR-RWD/Premium. I live in the North West of England - snow here is pretty rare - and when it does it is a couple of inches at worst, and doesn't hang around for very long. I really have no use or need for AWD so I am pretty loathe to...

Thanks -DB-, very useful indeed!

Thanks for the confirmation. Would be interested to know by how much the range differs between AWD and RWD.

Oh dear, that's a shame - that was the config that I was looking for. I'll keep my options open and see what other offerings are coming in 2020 before making a final decision. Thanks for the info though.

Hi - I'm aware of what configurations are currently being offered in the UK, but curious to know if the Long Range, Rear Wheel Drive with Premium interior is likely to be offered in the future (i.e. 2020) - I know this configuration is/was offered in the US and just wondering if it's ever likely...

Where are the UK figures? We are still part of Europe, at least until 29th March!

Living in the UK, I have not been able to personally experience the Model 3 but have instead, spent many hours reading the reports and experiences of others who have been lucky enough to actually buy and own one of these ground-breaking vehicles. After reading many, many reports submitted by...

steve1 - That's one amazing review of an M3 - to be honest I'm positively green with envy. If I had any lingering doubts about this car then your post has well and truly kicked them down the road. Sadly, for us in the UK, the M3 arriving at our shores is a long, long way away - but I try and...

If it were me in your shoes then I would almost certainly reject the car, though I would probably have steam coming out of my ears after having waited so long for it to actually arrive. The faults you list are totally unacceptable for a brand new vehicle, especially one that is being marketed...
