    Hopefully this will have federal support as Malcolm and Lucy are Model S owners.

    He has spoken highly of Tesla a number of times, but didn't realise they actually owned Model S cars. That does sound positive.

    Neato! I lived in the Kingston section of Canberra for a while when I was there for work. Loved the country!

    Far as I know, Lucy at least has one. They both visited the factory in Fremont last year.

    I haven't seen the car but earlier this year a close relation of Malcolm and Lucy asked me if I would be willing to let them test drive my car on local roads. I said yes, but heard nothing more, the conversation led me to believe they had one on order but I think Lucy was the intended primary driver.
