Tesla Model Y Performance Collection Day 

Thanks, yes it’s an excessive amount of Teslas but we mainly change them for tax reasons. I didn’t plan on getting 2 new model Y’s last year but by doing so saved our business around £20k in corporation tax!

Thanks Gary, and what a coincidence!

Thanks Mark

You won’t be disappointed, I’m very happy with mine

@@SteveRadford thanks for the reassurance. Are you with octopus energy for cheaper ev charging?

@@anillchandi Yes, been with Octopus for a couple of years now, great company

They do don’t they, I think the spoiler and the large black wheels really set it off

I’ve not really driven it much since I got it as we’ve been away since I got it. I’ve only done a few hundred miles but I find it great, nice and firm to drive, however with the wife’s MY LR we have had for almost a year now we have found it quite bouncy at times. I think I need a little longer with mine to compare it. Good luck with your collection next week 👍

Thanks. We change them quickly to take advantage of the tax saving for the business as you can save 19% of the cost of the vehicle off your corporation tax

Thanks Will 👍

Now that’s just greedy Roger, enjoy mate 😉

It’s pretty simple, you just remove the rear plate and surround and use a double sided vhb tape to stick the plate back on without the additional plastic surround

@@SteveRadford I also like what you have done with the rear reg plate...but what happens when you want to remove it or maybe change for a personal plate later...does it damage the paintwork?

@@robqueen8370 it's stuck on with some VHB double sided tape so it just comes off with a plastic removal tool easy enough, no damage to the paintwork

They've been doing really well up to now. Take Lyndsay's last Model 3, we lost just £8k in 2 1/2 years, but we also saved £10k in corporation tax, so when you look at it like that it's like driving a Tesla for free!

You'll only wonder why you didn't make the switch sooner. Do it!

Hey Andy. I’ve not noticed any knocking noises coming from mine or my wife’s Model Y. Maybe try posting on one of the Tesla groups on Facebook to see if anyone else has experienced this with theirs.

How exciting, enjoy your new car 🚗

Not yet. All I can say is reversing into a space is fine as you have the rear camera, however going into any space forwards is a bit worrying right now

@@SteveRadford this was my concern and nearly cxld (ours arrives soon). Listened to a few LiDAR/Tesla Vision experts and they say the cameras should be far better than USS but somewhat sceptical when there isn’t a low level camera at the front (unless I’m mistaken?)

Sure Aaron. The ride seems firmer because of the larger wheels and lower suspension and of course the acceleration is faster from the off, although when accelerating from maybe 50-60mph it doesn’t feel that much different although it probably is, but marginally.

Sure Scott, lithium batteries don’t like to be fully charged or fully discharged regularly, although it’s fine now and then when you need to. You’re best to keep them between 10%-90% charged and you can set the charge limit in the car or on the Tesla app.

Brilliant, will do, cheers Steve 🍻

Absolutely fine Alan, no issues as yet. In fact I’ve only ever had to replace 2 handles on a Model S after owning 9 Teslas over 6 years. These things are pretty bulletproof

@@SteveRadford do you know if Tesla part exchange any other cars other than Teslas ?

@@Alan-xk9rk yes they do although you will probably get a better price selling it privately, but get in touch and see what they’ll offer you

Ain’t they cool 😎

Mine is without the sensors and currently parking in forwards can be a little daunting so I always reverse in for now, although they are meant to be updating it to use the front camera, but I’m not expecting that to be perfect either

@@SteveRadford That’s a bit disappointing, I have model 3 with USS, and also have on order model y performance like yours, pick up on 20 this month, but I’m not to sure about front parking, the back is ok had camera but front don’t have nothing. So I’m not to sure what will the best for me now, keep my model 3 and wait or go ahead with my order 4 model y. I deal like Tesla going back in stead go ahead. And also is not really cheep car

@@SteveRadford There's a rumour of another camera inside the headlights, plus a high resolution radar (the radar might be for long distance only?)

It really doesn’t bother me that much not having the sensors as I reverse in almost every time, and the odd time I don’t I just do it carefully

Mine was built in China 🇨🇳

@Steve Radford Cheers. Looking at ordering one when they come from Berlin, and hopefully with the pressed chassis and 4680 batteries, but that might be a while.

The small granny charger in the bag that I showed in the frunk comes with the car

Hello Steve thanks for responding I thought Tesla don’t include them anymore?

I hadn’t heard that Francis, and it was there in mine, so maybe it’s something they’re considering and haven’t implemented yet?

Thanks. Hopefully mine will have it

@@ebustinguish They are not included in the US but they are in the UK

I believe call Right hand drive cars are from Shanghai. All good quality.

It’s a Shanghai build David

Now a Tesla powered VW Campervan like Fun for Louis would be awesome
