Car Hop

Evening!

Like many others, I'm currently waiting patiently on my M3P arriving in December, however I'm quite curious to see what cars you guys are leaving behind for your Tesla!??

Me:

Audi A6
2015 (65 reg) 3.0 BiTDi 320 Quattro Black Edition Tip Auto 4dr Saloon

 

[Zakalwe]

Merc C-Class hybrid. I really liked that car!

 

[NewbieT]

Tesla Model 3 SR+. Loved it. Going for the LR.

 

[TiLaSoul]

Range Rover Velar.

Loved the comfort, hated the reliability and running costs.

 

[Chrisgillett]

330d xdrive. F30.
I’ve had cars between but also a 330d E90 and a 330i E46. I like big engines!

 

[BLT1]

Tesla MS90D. Fancied something new and a bit smaller. The revamped M3 ticked most the boxes - just no heated steering wheel!

 

[Yachtsman]

BMW 330d xdrive F30, previous include e46 m3, 540i & 528i etc etc.
Miss the build quality, HUD & seat bolsters.

Love the instant torque of my model 3 though!

Not a hop, more like a leap...

Hyundai Tucson. The 2WD, 1.6, petrol version!

 

[browellm]

An F31 330d.

The new job I start in January demands a car less than 7 years old to claim the car allowance so it has tipped me over. I'm hoping to keep the BMW as well as its been a terrific car.

 

[BushtrimmmerJr]

Audi A1 so a bit of a size difference

 

[MacPaul]

A 12 year old Seat Altea 2.0 diesel. Definitely a leap rather than a hop.

 

[kelvin 660]

Toyota CH-R that had better suspension (didn't realise the roads where that bad till I got a M3), better blind spot and wipers, with rear traffic cross,
Having said that I love the electric drive of the M3, particularly when powering up steep hills!

 

[Horatio Alger]

Jaguar XE-S, 3ltr supercharged. Lovely car, fast and comfortable and completely reliable. Rubbish on fuel but otherwise cheap to run.
It went back over a month ago, in the meantime I'm driving a 19 year old Focus....

 

[AlanWad]

2019 Mercedes GLC to M3LR

Will likely miss the higher driving position but was blown away by the M3 at test drive.

 

[rincewind]

Lexus IS200. I miss the lack of road noise, but pretty much everything else makes up for it.

So I’m not sure if anyone can beat this in terms of contrasting existing car performance...perhaps if you are driving a horse drawn carriage!

Current car (2012) Kia Picanto 1 litre from my student days.

M3P ordered and sitting patiently since mid-August. Still no delivery date but hopefully not too long.

 

[Jerryjal]

My previous car was a 2016 Jaguar XF R-Sport, enjoyed the car (it was my 3rd XF) but loving the MS.

 

[bl187]

Porsche 997 carrera s and a Mitsubishi EVO X SST for a M3P

 

[Whoflungdung]

2019 Volvo V60 D4 (Polestared) Inscription Pro lovely car will miss some features like the HUD but the Tesla blew me away

 

[Neilio]

You're one of the few people getting a larger car! Most, including myself, seem to be downsizing to a model 3.
