  • Join me this week where my good friend and President of the UK Tesla Owners Group, Will Fealey, pops around to show me one of the very first right hand drive facelift Model 3's in the country.
    We have a look around it to checkout some of the differences, take it for a spin to see what they've changed inside the car, and pick George up from school in it to see what he thinks of it.
    It's a great car with some fantastic upgrades making it much safer in a side impact crash, and I love the changes like the lighting and trim, but the stalkless indicators will probably take some getting used to.
    Checkout a more in depth review on the new facelift Model 3 ‪@WillFealey‬ channel • In-Depth 1-Hour Review...

      So after long consideration I placed my order for the M3 LR I went for a test drive today and the car was quiet, comfortable. It is very fast. I don't need a performance, I never go to the track, l don't drive more than 75 on Freeway, 50 on city streets and I don't want to worry about driving over potholes and ruining my rims and LR has better range. Glad I'm officially part of Tesla family. First EV

    We’re regular viewers of your motorhome videos and really enjoyed them. I’m reaching out to you to ask if you could recommend anyone to cut and polish our motorhome as most of the paintwork has oxidized probably due to its age !!!! Hope you can help

      They added it to websites in EU after it never being there before. Unlike in the US where it's been on the website for years. This potentially means they've found a way to make it EU compatible.

    With no radar, no ultra sonic sensors, no indicator stalks, no rear wiper, no instrument panel, no gear selector stalk and a parking system (Tesla Vision) that simply doesn’t work properly its still a no for me. Shame as the car looks good especially in that red paint😍, is much quieter now and SR RWD price is very competitive.

    *This is what pisses me off about the Tesla haters*
    If had stood on my driveway, with my friends, and said; My new car has 500HP, O-60 in 3.6s but does 110mpg and is silent. It doesn’t need services and has more interior space than the X5 it replaced …. They would all be agast. Impressed beyond belief… But when I say it’s a Tesla, they all sneer and get very grumpy! Petulant child-like. “Elon should shut his bloody mouth” “That thing will catch fire” “Doesn’t he support Trump?” “Car parks can’t stand the weight” “It depreciates fast” “Takes hours to charge” “You’ll need new batteries in two years and they cost £30K” “You can’t cross Europe in it” Utter imbeciles…

    I found the stupid touchscreen distracting and annoying, but that's not a Tesla thing I guess, just crap modern cars. I know they are capable of accelerating faster than a speeding bullet, but I prefer the act of driving over being a passive user of something with all the character of a Moulinex.
