Buying junk food at the servo??I am not concerned with finance, insurance or any other issues as am using LeasePlan Novated lease which worked out cheaper for me than cash payment. Not sure what the Fuelcard will be used for though.

Dammit, I was quoted $800 must be a Sydney thing?Just got an estimate from a Tesla approved electrician to install the wall connector next month (Hobart area), and it was far better than I thought - about $300. Although he did say that I've got one of the easiest installs he's ever seen!
Hah!!! Leaseplan didn't include a fuel card for me????
LOL, I thought of that! Sadly, don't think that will work. My lawn mower, edger, and hedge trimmer are all electric, I can't even by them gas...Buying junk food at the servo??
Actually Leaseplan worked out better than expected. I just couldnt sort out trying to get insurance and thought we likely may upgrade to the Y anyway so 3 years Lease should be enough for us to decide.They usually have a free associated with them. Make sure they don't charge you for it.
Another guy on Facebook in Sydney was saying he got quoted $1,700 (although a slightly difficult install), so $800 doesn't sound too bad!Dammit, I was quoted $800 must be a Sydney thing?
Just met with Techno-phile at the Booragoon charger. Seems like the other Booragoon M3 is also blue which was delivered yesterday. Will try and meet this other blue owner same place tomorrow. Thanks Techno-phile for spending the time to go through the charging with me, there and at the Woolworths charger too (and then back again).Two M3s in Booragoon already and I know of another 4 coming to Melville incl yours and mine!
Hmmm... I have bought 4 cars in my life, each one was new. My first was a Holden Barina. I had it for 19 years. It was extremely reliable, the maintenance only started to increase in the last 5 years of ownership (and these were age related e.g. I needed the engine reconditioned and new gaskets put in). My second was a Toyota Corolla Seca hatchback. I had it for 17 years. It too was extremely reliable, can’t recall any major issues I had with it. My third, which I still have, is a Toyota Camry sedan, now 15 years old. It’s starting to show its age but no serious problems. It will get replaced with Model 3. The most recent one was my Nissan LEAF, now 5 years old, which has needed absolutely nothing done to it.
It seems mechanical or other unreliability is the hallmark of expensive, fancy, imported, non-Japanese cars. So the lesson is - buy boring cars and you’ll have no problems.
Can't I just put in a 3 phase plug (We have 3 phase for a 20KWh aircon)?Another guy on Facebook in Sydney was saying he got quoted $1,700 (although a slightly difficult install), so $800 doesn't sound too bad!

Anyone been to Alexandria in Sydney recently?I dropped into the Melbourne (Cremorne) delivery centre for a look today and spoke to some staff. There were 4 cars waiting to be delivered this afternoon and another had been delivered earlier, so 5 today. They mentioned there are a few more tommorrow but that next week they will be delivering up to 50 cars per day! Roughly 15 minutes time allocated per delivery so it will be madness for them next week. The back prep area of the delivery centre was already in full swing with a line of cars being detailed ready for delivery.

Yikes, I only just spotted my first ever "in-the-wild" Model 3 yesterday - BAR113, grey ('press car' no?)Definitely feeling the model 3 invasion now. Went to pick up daughter from girl guides. Another family was already has their model 3. I go to work, and I see a doctor has a model 3.
Is that 9x more than most other dealers on an average day? Imagine next week. Does anyone want to estimate the time it will take before Tesla M3 will become the number 1 selling car in Australia, like certain other countries in Europe?9 cars a day, geez they really are under the pump
I'm not an electrician, or have many skills in that area, so I wouldn't know. I do know that I was told that my house wasn't wired for 3-phase (I guess most homes aren't), but if you already have 3-phase then you're probably a step ahead of most of us!Can't I just put in a 3 phase plug (We have 3 phase for a 20KWh aircon)?
