Neil, nearly a month on now, what's the outcome so far?
I haven't really driven it much to be honest.... but the driving I have done has been very good. As I may have mentioned before, it is an entirely uninvolving vehicle to drive - although it's silent, comfortable, fast, cheap to run and with every driving aid and gadget you could want. So for the vast majority of the driving I do, which is incredibly boring drives on dual carriageways, the Tesla is perfect. The cruise control and autopilot are very easy features to use that really make sitting in traffic rather easy and relaxing. Same for motorways too - just set and forget (almost).
I have also decided to use it to get to any meetings I might have in London in the future - there is parking to be had in Belgravia for around £15 for most of the day.... no fuel cost, no congestion charge (currently). Far nicer than the nausea of the train and (pre-Covid) rammed and costly parking in out of town village stations.
It is an unashamedly electric vehicle - and I prefer that to the EV's that are trying to look like ICE cars. A minimalist interior and, of course, the Tesla charging network which trumps the wild-west network with their multiple RFID cards, slow charging and many apps required for all other EV's.
Would I recommend it? Yes, I think so. It's an appliance, a very good one. But it's not a GT40 or E-Type... or Morgan! I do like the thought of never needing a service or visiting a petrol station... that's quite pleasing.
