Tesla? They look class.
Have you had a look at the i pace from JagAnyone on here got one?
Upgrading my car in a couple of months and really fancying the Model X? Had one for a test drive and wow, it was unreal. Head has been completely turned by it. Driving it was like playing a computer game

The OP shouldn't bother with a tesla and go for a mcclaren or Aston Martin or better still for a Lamborghini Veneno or Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita
Just need a few million that's all

I take it that’s a no then @Les the Scientist ?
where do you get that they are unreliable from? There isn’t many loving parts and not much to go wrong on them, their reliability and safety ratings are superb.
if you do break down, you use the onboard system to summon assistance and they come and get you and take the car to the nearest service centre, all included in the deal.
I’m not saying until it actually arrives as I’ll look like a cock if something goes wrong

If anyone needs a Tesla referral code then please PM me. It’s worth it for both of us.

HM Treasury says that for cars first registered from April 6, 2020, most company car tax rates will be reduced by two percentage points.
That means for a pure electric vehicle with zero tailpipe emissions, company car drivers will be taxed at 0%, paying no BIK tax at all.
Furthermore, the zero percentage rate is also extended to company car drivers in pure electric vehicles registered prior to April 6, 2020, who were already looking forward to a much reduced rate of 2% for 2020/21.
Really?
The Model 3 does 0-60 in 3.2 seconds, the I-Pace 4.5 and the E-Tron about 5.5, so in terms of pure acceleration, I reckon less than 1 in 20 cars on the road can go faster than any of them, probably less than 1 in 100 faster than the Tesla.
They’re all absolutely rammed with the latest gadgets and features, they’re quieter, cheaper to run, easier to maintain.
Obviously the range and the charge time is the massive drawback but the range will only improve and the charge time will only decrease.
This is the future of motoring.
How many of those have YOU driven then ?

Sort of agree. How will people without drives charge them?
Not the near future though.
I’m getting one in April, I’ll let you know what it’s like
That’s the huge issue really, those people have to rely on public chargers while they’re out and about or at work. Workplaces will lead the way in getting people over to EVs.

Our trust are now advising to put an order in 6-12 months before end of your current lease if you want a Tesla which is looking likely after having a test drive.
The major car manufacturers are already commiting to hybrids and it won’t be long before they go pure EV. I reckon the majority of children born this year will never drive a petrol or diesel car.
