    Why didn't my Tesla charge last night on my scheduled departure settings?

    I have a model S, but the scheduled charging UI seems to be the same as for the Model 3 - and it is confusing, and in my view no longer fit for purpose. I’m on an off-peak tariff (Octopus Go) that costs £0.12 / KWh between 00:30 and 04:30, and £0.40 / kWh the rest of the time. So four hours of...

    When I get back in my car, Spotify plays a few seconds of a song, then stops.

    Same problem - only with a few specific tracks. Those tracks used to play just fine, and they still play fine on other devices. Tried Spotify logout/log back in, and tried soft reset. Anyone found a solution?

    Thoughts on the Mustang Mach E

    Yes, looks like a decent effort, though very much another me-too that doesn't really move the needle. The interior with the big portrait screen looks like pure Model S - seven years after that design first went on sale. And the performance and range seem very much at the lower-mid range of...

    Renting an EV in Norway: not easy

    Update: If you are travelling to Bergen, you can do as I did and rent a Model 3 from Rent-a-Wreck. Yes, I know, the name doesn't inspire confidence, but the guy told me it is 'kind of an ironic name'. They only have the one Tesla as far as I could tell, so best to book early. And while the...

    Real World Model 3 UK Experience

    I'm a Model S owner (90D) and I rented a Model 3 dual motor for 3 days during a recent trip to Bergen in Norway. It was a vacation combined with a road test, as I've been considering swapping the S for a 3. Drove 500km, including a full day trip to the fjords and back, as well as around the...

    Insurance UK

    Yes, I tried LV, but the online quote system said they wouldn't insure me without a tracker, as in a monitored service (Thatcham-approved) rather than just tracking using the app. Still looking as I have 3 weeks until renewal, but suspect I'll have to stick with DL and suck it up. Not much...

    Insurance UK

    Has anyone else renewed with Direct Line recently? I bought my first Tesla, a used Model S 90D, last August and insured with Direct Line for just under £500, which I was happy with. Just received my renewal notice from them, and it's gone up by 40% to nearly £700, with no change in details or...

    Renting an EV in Norway: not easy

    I had the same experience on Nabobil when looking for a Tesla rental in Bergen to get to the fjords, although to be fair they did make it clear you need a license from a Nordic country before they would let me sign up and request a rental, which of course I couldn't. Apparently a recent policy...

    Displayed range is actual, not ideal, right?

    I’m 3 months into my first EV ownership, with a 2-year-old Model S 90D. Initially I had the battery display set to miles, and found myself getting stressed because it always dropped by more than the distance travelled - even more so as the temperature dropped with the approach of winter. Now...
