Sounds good. Do you know the accident history?

Sounds about right barring any crazy other unknown issues

By “central display” do you also mean it has MCU2? I believe that could include the 4G connectivity upgrade too, which you will need.

 

[Beinghuman2482]

yes it has LTE

This 85 KWh pack will charge slowly. It has the charger modification that slows down the charging rate to keep the battery pack from frying itself. IIRC, there is an open class action suit against these models for that reason. If you are planning on using it as a commuter car where it will sit and charge overnight, then you should be fine. If you plan on taking it for any trips, you will sit charging at superchargers for what will seem like forever. We just took a recent, cross country trip and spent too much time at superchargers for me to recommend using this car for long trips. Others will pull into the supercharger and get wonderful charge rates, but not the 85KW models.
