Surprise us! Tell us something surprising about this car?
It is a good all-rounder with some amazing technology on board. I find the range sufficient and have done track days, skid pans and other events in it. Plus it can be very easily personalised.
Stick or twist? If it’s twist, what are you considering and why?
Stick but I would swap for a Model Y, as it has a more practical hatchback….when it is available!

We have an Open Energy Monitoring charger. Yes, it operates like a zappi but more reliable.

We have a PowerWall too, so are on Octopus Energy’s Tesla Tariff, 8p in and out 24/7, it is highly recommended.
