As you've sad the tax/ corperation tax implication were a no brainer for me to get an EV.
If it was a private car i would have stuck with petrol / diesel.

[UK] used value of their Tesla cars plummeting?

and people are still moaning about self drive tesla not working in the UK, i for 1 couldnt give a toss about self drive, a car is there to be driven, if you want self drive get a bloody taxi.
Although im not agreeing with the article saying it was in "self drive mode" any time there is a Tesla accident the driver can claim that and not user error.

well the value of that one will certainly have dropped a bit
76 metres off a cliff on to rocks, tumbling several times on the way and 2 kids unharmed and 2 adults with non-life threatening injuries..
But sometimes the wipers aren’t very good, so Tesla’s suck.
If it tumbled its way down that's a big help because it means that it didn't really "plunge" or "plummet".
I remember a story about somebody surviving in a smart that rolled down a cliff.

> Anyone worried about the value of their Tesla cars plummeting?
Um... It's a discussion board - the topic was the falling-resale-value of Teslas which is a global trend, I happened to be interested in the topic and indicated that no, I am not concerned about falling values for a set of reasons which I listed.
Sorry if that was somehow "off topic".
I use my wipers a lot so it’s important that they work properly, which they don’t. Not many people will be planning to drive their cars off a cliff so this story, while interesting, is totally irrelevant to ownership.
But back on topic, I’m not in the slightest bit concerned about plummeting prices. I’ve always considered that any car I buy will be a rapidly depreciating asset, and if my M3 goes the same way then so be it. If it retains good value then of course that’s a bonus.

This is a UK specific thread talking about the used car market in the UK, you coming in and spouting some rubbish about why you’re not going to sell your car is irrelevant.

Wow, I never knew that falling used car prices was purely a UK concern. Forgive the intrusion.

Thrilled to hear that the UK is completely insulated from all global market forces - keep up the good work!

The post you replied to was a joke. And quite a funny one in the context of the conversation. But one that probably only someone from the UK would apreciate. To be fair though he did add a winking smiley for the uninitiated.

My apologies. This was actually a very subtle dig at our fellow forum member who was less than welcoming to you.
For a USAian, though, you would have no way of knowing what I was referring to, hence my wink.

And the fact that the cultural reference is so uniquely British that it would almost certainly be lost on anyone not from the UK was in no way subtlety making a point about the pitfalls of posting on foreign forums where you may not fully appreciate the context of the conversation
Our American cousin is probably also wondering why you put a picture of yourself om the follow up post

I think we looked quite nice on that one, actually. Shame the kids couldn’t make it…
