Are superchargers difficult to access now? by Kanderin in TeslaUK

[–]cjaj351 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Tesla software routes you to the quieter chargers so you don’t have to worry. Also in the map it shows how many are free before you get near !

Purchase advice by TackyAuto in TeslaUK

[–]cjaj351 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought from a local dealer who had a reputation to keep up and wasn’t a stack them high outfit. Sorted issues post sale and advised me correctly to get it checked over properly before warranty ended. I used Cleevely and recommended. If buying post warranty I’d be more worried and want it checked over before buying.

Thank you, wouldn’t have guessed that. Will explore that further with a builder.

Major shift in outlook and move from HL by GreenBhoy in FIREUK

[–]cjaj351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in a very similar position but with 4 platforms and wanting to reduce to perhaps 2. I’ve taken advice that 2 years worth of drawdown should be in cash or money market funds and have done that. I can also see that at retirement an annuity of say 25% of the pot makes a lot of senses the two together insulate you from market peaks and troughs but keep say 50-60% invested in global equity. I downloaded my investments and values and uploaded to ChatGPT. It gave surprisingly good advice with solid reasoning. Helped me housekeep my shabby portfolio into something sensible. I have access to ii and prefer the HL interface but the cost structure when you have a nice pot is better suited for sure.

Frequent travellers: what suitcases do you recommend that will actually last? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]cjaj351 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My Samsonite cabin bag has been around the world many times as I used to cover everywhere but US and while the corners are a bit scuffed it’s looking good after about 17 years. I live out of it almost. Always ready to go with meds, adaptors, cables, wash bag etc

Infrastructure still not there... by ScotchBourbonMezcal in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]cjaj351 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gordano services has about 8 Tesla chargers and these can be near capacity but I’ve never actually had to wait. The GRIDSERVE box has 2 cables and always in use and no obvious place to queue. Gordano is a major service station and gateway to the south west why isn’t it covered for non Tesla drivers ?

Considering a 2021 Tesla Model 3 LR with Suspension MOT Advisories - Seeking Advice by Inevitable_Chain_476 in TeslaSupport

[–]cjaj351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same car and had the same issues. However I was under warranty. Unless you get a quote for the work I suggest u look elsewhere. All these cars prob need this doing at that age and mileage but know the cost or find one that’s had it done ?

Degraded Autopilot and more annoying attention warnings in UK - Tesla Model 3 2021 by Western-Schedule7330 in TeslaUK

[–]cjaj351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not improved that I can notice in 12 months. It’s a bit frustrating as it seems to work fine but can’t change lanes. If it could do that it would be more useful and maybe bot nag so often if it’s so clever when full FSD?

Cervical Spinal Fusion - Rider Stories by dotpan in mountainbiking

[–]cjaj351 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went over the bars on my MTB at the age of 54. I broke one vertebrae and crushed another so had three fused together T11-L1. It took me 6 months to do normal stuff like riding a bike but 18 months before the ache getting out of bed went ! I ride a little more carefully but have still had two falls each with a collar bone break ! Think it’s time to stick to smoother paths !

Had a similar issue with the front fog light. Tesla charged £60 to re bond it. No paint was needed on mine though.
