Shocking... This UK MX needs tyres!

Yes click bait title, but if this is your Model X, you should be ashamed. Especially in this ice climate.

Well done to who ever wrote in the dirt.

I really hope the twonk who owns that is booked into a Kwik Fit tomorrow morning. Truly shocking that anyone could consider driving that deathtrap

Taking "Tesla cars require less servicing" a bit too far.

MOT due in a couple of months. Wonder if they're just waiting until then!

Terrible parking too.

one on the passenger side is totally illegal that’s asking for a blowout any time soon

There's no doubt that both sides are totally illegal ... and have been for more than a thousand miles!

I don't understand how it's even drivable given the amount of torque these things put out. How is he not just spinning every time he puts down the accelerator?

I would guess that the traction control will cleverly compensate so you would just accelerate more slowly rather than spinning up the tyres much. Maybe this can lead to a false sense of security!

Same car Growing concern as police search for missing man and his Tesla (passing on info posted on twitter feed) - hopefully it has a good outcome

It was always a good reminder in my diesel ICE cars when they started slipping on take off!

Whoa - @CMc1 where did you see the car? Maybe you should give that number a ring

 

[Twiglett]

when @VanillaAir_UK said "same car" I assumed Model X - not the actual same car in the article.
If that was a recent pic it needs reporting to Somerset police

Is the OP the same person as the Twitter account?

That article says if anyone has any info about the guy or the car to contact 999 or 101, so pretty serious.

This article suggests he was found.. so maybe he is just driving around in it.
