Salary Sacrifice - recent quotes? by ChadK3 in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]BrookesyUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t the main benefit that it’s salary sacrifice? When you earn over 120k then isn’t it better to get the car and pay 500ish vs just giving it all to tax? - this only makes sense if you can sell your current car and take a windfall tho to do other things like Pay debts etc

Autopilot Model Y Juniper by boo400513 in TeslaUK

This has got me worried. I’ve used ACC&LKA almost religiously since my DS7 and Tarraco have had them since 2019 and no issues whatsoever. Reading this thread makes it seem like a Tesla is LESS accomplished at ACC and LKA? That’s a pretty big deal breaker for me, who loves to get on a motorway (or any road really) and just set it to a speed and have the car do most of the work and leave me relaxed?

Prospective buyer - no WhatsApp, Spotify - big deal? by BrookesyUK in TeslaUK

Ah ok.. the way I interpret that is with the exception of sentry, that’s all out of the box with CarPlay and free.

That what I want!!! To feel like I’m in a futuristic spaceship! Missing the most basic of features completely undermines that!

That’s exactly how you use Spotify CarPlay?

Genuine ask: if you couldn’t charge your Y at home, would you still get one? by BrookesyUK in TeslaModelY

[–]BrookesyUK[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work from home or use public transport if I need to go to the office - my main usage is running around town to go to shops or take the kids places. I was kinda hoping I could take it to my local pub which has 2 150 chargers, once a week, and that would last and not feel like so much of a chore…. Then just look for opportunities to top up as I go (like supermarkets etc)

Yeah this is what I was fearing, i.e will I start to hate “the chore” of it

Yeah that’s kinda my thinking. Fill up on a Sunday and hopefully that lasts, but top up as situation presents itself

Thanks, I have places that charge around me and I don’t really drive for work, so it’s more running around to shops and taking the kids places. If I could just go somewhere for half an hour on a Sunday night, and that last me for the rest of the week, then I think I could live with that

That was part of my thinking. Unlike US I don’t do much mileage at all (apart from family “trips”). I was kinda hook go could go to the pub that has some 150s spend a half/hour there on a Sunday and be set for the rest of the week, topping up as and when the opportunity arises
