    Was a potential new Tesla owner....

    Took a Model X out for a testdrive - the wife loved it. PCP plan looked pretty OK despite the increased 2.5% APR - it is an expensive car with very limited options for a premium price. However the showstopper - The Maintenance plan of 2.6K for 4 years AND the GBP1200pa insurance costs are...

    Guy Martin and the Robot Car

    Watched this last night (it aired a few days ago) and was pleasant surprised.
