They must be getting all the social media stuff for free then probably… 😉
Musk just paid 2.6 Billion dollars to own major share in Twitter - doesn’t sound like nothing…

You talking to yourself, Jon? ;)

They get plenty of free press with the many self driving cars running into trucks or spontaneous combustion of all those flammable batteries on board ;)

Good electric cars at a good price with a good ownership proposition. No surprise. 👍
Or is it just that they had a couple of ship fulls arrive? Were they top of the polls last month? Will they be next month? Yes they're selling lots of cars at present, lots more than I thought they ever would, but I still think the biggest test for Tesla is yet to come.
I see there's no Tesla in the UK top 10 year to end of April according to latest sales figures on Autocar.

You can make the argument that at least they are providing a date, your local OPC on the other hand…

No, their problem is too many orders. They keep raising their prices to dissuade people from ordering.

Probably. I actually liked the model 3, but for me now it really is the Tesla version of the Ford Mondeo. Literally the choice of all company car drivers.

I reckon the Mondeo would have less issues. Poor panel gaps, rubbish paint work and a sh*t load of software problems seem to plague the model 3. The Chinese ones seem a little better, but you also wouldn’t be paying £50K for the Mondeo ;)
