I’m planning to outright buy a Tesla MY through my business/limited company. I do not mean Hire purchase or contract hire. I mean pay the full amount and outright buy it (ofcourse assume I have comfortably enough amount)
- So wanted to know if this is a good idea ?
- Has anyone here bought one...
What is the best time to try to take advantage of incentives? The very last day of the quarter (i.e. March 31st)? Or sometime towards the end of the month? Ready to order a new Model 3, timing not critical for me.
I’m pulling the plug and purchasing a Model 3! Before I do so, how does the current owner check the range of the car? Is the only way to charge to 100%?
Once I purchase and remove their phone from the list of keys, would they still be able to track the location of the car? Any way to...
The upgrades screen in the app now has the following text:
The upgrades page on the website has been updated with the relevant FAQ. Premium connectivity purchases are not eligible. Full FAQ entry:
Curiously, there's no mention of upgrades purchased through the website. I don't have any...
could be also declared cat N/D.
or maybe even cat S/C if not disabled by Tesla.
also, if you know of mechanic around London UK area, willing to do rebuild for ca$h, please let me know.
(already checking eBay, Auto Trader, Copart, Gumtree.)
thanks!
Tesla seems to be suggesting here that I can buy a car through my pre-tax earnings via a salary sacrifice scheme; basically meaning the cost is reduced significantly.
Salary Sacrifice
Has anybody any experience with this?
I work for an SME with no official leasing partner, but I do use my...
hi, I don't know if this is a duplicate question but none the less i'll give it a try. I'm looking to purchase the base model 3 (standard range plus). I'm from quebec, so I know there's an incentive of 13K between federal & provincial.
(1) is that incentive take off the top during the purchase...
Hello all. I finally placed an order on a Model X that is to ship from Baltimore to Chicago using Tesla's transport option. It's been 17 days so far though and zero updates from Tesla. I've bothered the Sales Advisor and the Inside Delivery Advisor more than a dozen times through email and...
I have been looking at Teslas for 8 mo’s and am getting ready to order a Model 3 AWD, non FSD. Ordered the wall charger, got an estimate from a trusted electrical company that does commercial and residential and has installed public chargers at local stores. Our breaker panel is full, so they...
Walked into Buena Park dealership 2 weeks ago. 2 days later ordered online. My Model 3 is now ready- 6pm appt set. Got emails from 2 different Tesla employees with equally confusing titles (Inside Delivery Manager and Energy Manager (what's an 'Energy Manager??') trying to rush the delivery-...
My understanding is that the LR RWD has the same performance motor as the D+. I would love to be able to choose to "enable" performance mode for a set amount of time, maybe by the hour \ day \ week \ month \ etc. I don't want or need the performance capability all the time but maybe I have a...
I am about to place an order for a new Model 3. I have a few questions:
1. Do they still have a referral system? Is it worth getting a referral code from someone? Do I get something? Does the referring person get something?
2. They now require a $2500 deposit. I was told on the phone that...
I have established a good relationship with a CPO Sales Advisor in the Southern California area. I found my CPO experience to be great, and much faster than the horror stories that are on here. It took 1 week from deposit to delivery for my 2015 MS60.
If you are in the market for one, and are...
Dear motorists,
I am doing the research project about the difference in factors affecting purchase decision of Tesla electric cars and Hybrids.
Could you please take a part in my survey (it will take around 5 minutes)
It is very important for me to get as many responses as possible...

The dream has happened. After quite a journey, I now own a beautiful Model S.
I had been watching the market relentlessly, with HUGE help of EV-CPO of course. After nearly a year of considering, budgeting, and debating we called Alliant and were approved for financing. We gave the $1000 deposit...
Hi folks, I'm about to place an order on the new Model X. With all the options on on-road costs added up it slightly exceeds my comfort level of spend on the car. Any of you have negotiated with Tesla Australia and have been successful in negotiating the total price down, even a little? I would...
As many of you know, the NADA has been trying to stop Tesla sales. I live in VA where we only have a single store. The VADA is trying to prevent a second store from opening in Richmond. If you would like more information on this you can read about it at the below link.
Tesla seeking to open...
Hi all,
I have put an order in for a Model S and applied for PCP finance.
The question I have is, can I pay the finance "downpayment" via credit card? I have some lovely 0% CCs and doing it this way would reduce the interest rate being paid for the credit (although speed up the repayments as I...
Hi All! First time using the forum, so bear with me if I misstep. I am in Utah (Salt Lake City area) and am interested in seeing a Model S in person.
Since I am not able to at the new store is there anyone who would be willing to meet with me to let me see their Model S?
As Tesla Motors don't take trade-ins, what are people doing with existing cars that they/I would normally trade-in as part of the sale ? Tim (of Tesla) mentioned that Stratton Finance have a trade-in service, has any one had experience with using them ? Obviously private sale is an option but...
Weet iemand of er een artikel of thread bestaat waarin uitgerekend wordt hoeveel je nu effectief bespaart met een Model S van pakweg 110k vs een traditionele wagen van dezelfde prijs, met laat ons zeggen een CO² uitstoot van 200g/km ? Volgens mij bespaar je vier à vijf maal:
1. Afschrijving aan...
We are interested in a roadster purchase and will actually be considering an offer when we visit the owner (and car) Tuesday (two days). Being new to Tesla and an EV, we could use any advice on what to actually look for with the car in order to minimize any bad decisions. We were directed to...
