I'm getting low on my PHEV, a tank usually lasts me 3 months, might have to throw in 15L!

I always feel wierd at the petrol station, especially if the cops are around. They generally interrogate me....every. Time.
Evidently I look suspicious.
“Sir why are you at a petrol station in a tesla?”
It usually end with the cops declining an offer for a drag up the street, and the loser goes to jail.
Blue heaven
Fair Dinkum Tesla
Waiting for someone to spell Tesla on their roof with solar panels.

It has been discussed and people have expressed their opinions that this should be able to be fitted in Australia after delivery as our legislation does not prohibit it as EU legislation does, however there has been no official response from Tesla, so if you purchase the car and expect this to be available shortly, you may not get what you expect. So until there is an official response from Tesla, expect there to not be a towing option until some aftermarket company in Australia makes one and certifies it here.

Back in the day trainspotting was a big thing, then plane spotting. It appears lately ship spotting has taken off...

Yes, but we will still have that cheating VW diesel. My partner wants to keep that and get rid of the Peugeot 308. Luckily the class action trial on the VW is in September and hopefully if we win they will have to buy it back and we can get a 2nd Tesla!

Can this be the boat? The past port calls fit the pattern, UK, Belgium, LA, San Diega, Japan, Brisbane, NSW. And today, Melbourne at 6PM. Anyone wants to checkout the port tomorrow?

Thanks for your posts on ship movements - I too enjoy following your posts.
I have a small problem though with the quoted Sydney arrival date for the Cap Capricorn vessel on the 16th of August.
I thought the ship would go to Port Botany, but when I checked the following website,
Daily Vessel Movements | Port Authority New South Wales
No Cap Capricorn is shown to arrive on 16th (nor any time up to 19th) in Port Botany.
Or do I need to head out to Port Botany on the 9th to check what is getting unloaded from the Seoul Express?
Not important, since the cars will arrive with or without me tracking them, but interested in your thoughts?!?
I just sold my car (I'm away for work for the next two weeks). No more filling the car for me!

I feel exactly the same too. Keep saying good bye to the ol’ pump. I have scrubbed my geezer clean and will list it on trade me as soon as my delivery dates are fixed.
Best place in NZ to order floor mats and frunk and trunk mats?
My car sold on Friday and now im borrowing the wifes leaf so its no more filling here. Im already looking forward to having more than 100Km of range now though!I just sold my car (I'm away for work for the next two weeks). No more filling the car for me!
It seems crazy that a towbar has been approved, they provide the option in other countries to have a factory one fitted, but no dice for us. I had an aftermarket one fitted to my Citroen and I always regretted not getting the factory one because it integrated better with the electrical side of things (disabled the reversing sensors, etc). I would consider waiting for this to become available but who knows when (if ever) that will happen.
