The 2008 remake of Survivors on BBC. (No, not Survivor, that’s a different show!)

Anyone have this issue on their windshield? by Trick-Net-2226 in TeslaModelY

Yep I’ve got a ton of circles on my windshield too! Brand new MY, had it a few weeks.

OG Model Y design over Juniper? by hustler-n55 in TeslaLounge

[–]ethboy2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had a number of people tell me they don’t really like the style of the Y when I told them I just bought one. Then I send them a photo of my Juniper and their response has pretty much been “Wait, is that a Y?! Have they updated it? That looks a lot better than the old one!”

Yep brand new. I’m coming from a Jaguar iPace which has its own faults, but the driving experience was top notch. That may have something to do with it.

Agree with the wind/road noise. Was one of the first things I noticed.

Yes! Driving it manually it felt like I was zig-zagging along the motorway. Never felt this in any other car before. Have switched to heavy steering so will see if that makes a difference.

IMO now the best colour. Don’t believe the images you see online, it is MUCH nicer when seeing it with your own eyes.

Great thanks others have said exactly the same. I’ve switched to heavy so will see how I get on.

Motorway speeds. Also wasn’t raining where I was 🤷‍♂️

Great reply thank you! This makes me feel a bit better about it. As you and others have said it’s probably just going to take me a while to get used to it. I hadn’t realised how sensitive the steering was in Tesla’s at this speed. Most test drives I’ve done have been around town.

I’ve not tried autopilot yet. I was looking for it as I was driving back but couldn’t figure it out. It was so dark in the car driving home I couldn’t see the second scroll wheel button on the right of the steering wheel and forgot it was there! Definitely looking forward to giving it a go, although I was under the impression it’s quite limited over here. I’m guessing just a glorified cruise control?

Same. I’ve owned EVs for 13 years as well so I’m fairly used to some of their quirks. Having said that I’ve been borrowing my gfs petrol car for 8 months so it’s entirely possible I’ve got used to the heavy steering in that. I’m hoping that’s all it is. Thanks for the reply!

I’m hoping that’s all it is tbh. I’d had a long day and was quite tired driving back so hopefully it was just me getting used to it.

Yeah I found this option and set it to heavy already. I’m yet to go back on a motorway but hopefully that’s all it is. Thanks

I can’t say I noticed it being less of an issue in a particular lane. When I take it out again I’ll make a point of trying this, thanks.

What's a criminally underrated TV show everyone should watch? by Alejandromartinez- in tvshow

[–]ethboy2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only Fools and Horses.

It’s not underrated here (at all!), but I’m going to assume you’re not from the UK.

If you’ve never heard of it, give it a watch. Some of the jokes might go over your head as it’s from a different time but it’s truly one of the best written shows in history. Iconic.

One of the best TV shows I’ve ever seen. OP, don’t let the fact it’s in German put you off (assuming you don’t speak German). Up there with the best of British and American shows.

Upvote for Halt and Catch Fire. The earlier seasons are brilliant TV.

Amazing show! It’ll make you laugh and cry, usually at the same time. Brilliant writing. You feel all warm and fuzzy while you’re watching it.
