Brilliant video again CB, for its content but also further enhanced by your obvious excitement! Regarding the supercharging cost being potentially on a par with diesel on the few occasions when you have to use it, my two points are that you'd generally have a 250-300 mile 'home rate headstart' to offset the cost, and also the Tesla superchargers are still significantly cheaper than just about any other brand's network. On a recent 1200 mile trip I did in my wife's non-tesla EV I was paying 35-45p at the few Tesla sites I could use but 68-82p at all the others. If Tesla can make it work why can't all the (greedy) others? Looking forward to the next CB Tesla update already...

If you can try a Inscription model I had a momentum any swapped to the Inscription what a improvent well worth it.

I feel the same. You feel like you're a club member. :-) I got a Model Y. Still working on depending on the display for backing up and changing lanes. Wish? Wish I could hear less road noise. Great on smooth roads, but can hear every bump on an old road. Love it though! Best car I've ever owned so far!

I think you might've gotten it wrong about the weight. F30 is lighter than the G20 by a sizable margin. In fact, the F30 is the lightest generation since the E46.

I live in America so it's a different set of acronyms here. Here we have what's called a v i n number are you saying I shouldn't post my VIN number? I already did so should I take it down? I couldn't reply to your text you sent me back so this is a new comment.

Mines stage 1 running 260bhp with apr open intake. love it. Defo a sleeper.

Brilliant mate. How many times a day do you do that when your on your own 😂👏

I’m right where you were here now Euan. Except for the family car currently a 320D M Sport Touring. I have a BMW i3 which is great and home charging point all setup. Not sure whether to go new 320D MSport Touring / 330E MSport Touring (boot size an issue maybe?) / 520D MSport (too big?) or full EV like a EQC400 / Audi E-Tron even as prices have come down so much but worried they will continue to drop. Albeit would likely go PCP as you mentioned. Looked at Polestar and love it but too small for our needs. How’s the Tesla?

PASS - insurance cost 240$ a month for us in a model y, can't call Tesla, fit and finish poor, can't ever enter the car at times, wheels get road rash just by looking at them, tires are a joke look at the tread at the face! ,,,prices are not stable at retail, fire all the top management - and no stock options! please am I wrong.......... I want a refund

The same thing just happened to me today so I'm glad I watched your video plus Craigslist warned me also when I put my phone number.

I want that new Tesla 3 performance I’m still debating it 🤣👌

Hopefully still in warranty, get that steering wheel changed!

Iv’e got one 69 version it’s just great 👍 over the years i have had many starting with a 1600 ! up to a 540 tourer ! this suv is excellent

At least they will have you purchase the car report and you will never hear from them again, at worst they will take your banking info.

That paint color is pure sex.

Enjoyed watching this. You did the review so well. Keep it up

Gorgeous car - love your enthusiasm! Best of luck with it!!

Beautiful family mate ❤

Great review, nice to see a Scottish TH-camr, not many, i think this will be my next car, coming from a 2010 bmw 320i touring, it's very underwhelming, first and last BMW for me

Great video thank you, we're just contemplating get one (approx 2019) just the 2 of us but we have a large dog and will occasionally towing a large caravan. Will definitely do some shopping around thanks.

0 to recharge ! And where does the electricity come from. Another company car no doubt.

😂

You’ll need to charge it every trip with that heavy a right boot. 😅

Congratulations on new car always a great car 🚗 content channel 5 star reviews

If road noise is something that bothers you, then i suggest to get an EV specific tire with sound dampening properties, it helps alot. They are abit expensive but for me it was worth it. I bought the Maxxis Victra Sport EV since they won an award at Sema and i am very happy with them.

Great explanation. Just bought a 320d with literally ALL the extras in Sparkling Bronze with beige interior. Keep these videos up mate.

Such a great enthusiast review! Loved your new car journey and I'm very jealous. Looking forward to seeing your kids reaction in the next video 😀

A sub to your awesome channel . Thank you sir .

Picked up a 21 plate M3LR from Spalding motors myself a week or so ago. That’s a hell of a drive home. I only had to get back to Birmingham and I’d had enough by the time I got there.

Glad I got the outlander PHEV. Longer range, better design, and superior funcionality with a HeAT PUMP

My local supercharger is 22p per kWh off peak😁

Great video mate, pleased you love it. it’s a fantastic car !

I worked at Tesla for 8 years since 2014 and owned one since 2019. I still wave at every other Tesla lol

Looks great! Tesla seem to last so well in terms of interiors. Don’t show their age at all!

Lovely car! Best of luck with it. Would love one myself, teasing the idea at the moment 😊

Just bought one of these bad boys and wow what a car. I know the Tesla Y makes more sense but I just hate the way it looks ! Here in the uk you hardly see any polestar 2s I’ve been asked a couple of times now what it is while charging up I love it 😍😍😍

I am planning to buy tesla model 3 LR from the same company, and today Ive spotted you channel and that video.

Still have mine 7 years after I bought it, zero problems.

Mileage? What is the US conversion model of this one.

Trick with the screen is to use your fingers at the back of the screen to stabilise your hand and touch with your thumb. Larkhall is new, bit surprised the charge speed dropped there. Hope you registered at the hotels with superchargers because lot of them have parking eye. Phantom braking is a thing. It's less issue than it used to be. Back in the day supercharging was 20p/kWh. Want to get on a cheap overnight plan for electricity. Fill your car for less than a gallon of petrol.

Excellent video. Thanks for sharing it with us. Looking forward to getting my own Tesla in the next few weeks.

Only supercharge enough to get home and a bit more. Home charging on Octopus is sooo much cheaper

Lithium batteries don't like being empty or full. Keep the car between 20-80% and go into the extremes for hours not days. The battery should last for decades. Ie. Only charge to 90%+ if you're going for a drive immediately. Get octopus for 7.5p/kwh electric

I had a very similar experience in the US. I rented a car, drove 5 hrs. and purchased a used 2021 Model 3. It's the LR with the performance boost package. I was not ready for the power but when I hit the throttle I had the same grin you had in the video. I went to show my son and my grandson ran out to see my new Tesla. He was just as excited and had the same grin. Thanks for the video.

I've had a model 3 LR for 3.5 years now and drive it round from Norway to the UK every year. So i can give a few tips: 1. As mentioned elsewhere here, try to roll into chargers with around 5-10% and only charge to 60-70% if you are in a hurry. The charge curve slows a lot above 80%, so it is faster to do more short charges than few long ones to >90% . Personally, by the time i have taken a pee, walked the dog and eaten a sandwich, the car is usually near 90%. 2. The adaptive cruise control going mental and hitting the brakes is depressingly common. It's called "phantom breaking" in the tesla world. Don't get your hopes too high for full self driving - it's impressive but you can't trust it. 3. Our labrador travels very happily on the back seat. I got a seat cover that splits, so she can share with a passenger if needed. 4. I run in chill mode almost all the time. It's just easier to drive smoothly, and reduces car sickness a lot. And its plenty quick still. 5. EVs work best if you can change how you view refuelling. So plan to plug in whilst you are doing something else, and then you'll maximise their advantages. Plan to do explicit "refuelling" trips and you'll emphasise their limitations. Getting a home charger helps massively.

Dont run it in Standard mode, run it in Chill mode. And don't set it to show range, have it show percentage, much better. Like your phone! Enjoy!

Hi mate, how much did you pay for your car and what was the mileage for it?

I've had my 2021LR for 6 months and it still brings a smile to my face every time I drive it. After a month's ownership I trialed the acceleration boost. Well worth trying it out. It's personal taste, but the wood veneer went straight away. Plenty of cheap covers out there.

Don't know you from adam obviously, but lovely to see someone so excited with their new toy! Safe travels that man

You chose wisely. Test drove a Polestar 2 and hatchback aside, EVERYTHING about my red Model 3 LR was better.
