    What a load of .... from the owner IMO. That car lunches like a bull when you hit the accelerator and if you do that instead of the brake pedal :rolleyes:

    LOL, I wonder will they be foolish enough to actually take this to court ? would be a very expensive mistake.

    I do agree with one of the comments on the site that the Wife is probably convinced she did not press the accelerator and probably meant to hit the brake instead.

    The logs don't lie and I'm sure Tesla can prove those logs are from the car and not modified.

    I hope we're kept in the loop of any developments.

    The leaf also uploads data to Nissan servers.

    What I found funny was that as soon as he saw it his first thought was to take out the phone and take a picture.... a stiff drink is what I'd be looking for, not to put it up on social media!

    I had a job parking cars on the J1 visa in American. I crashed a Merc against a side pillar. It was also a case of me hitting the accelerator instead of the brake ;)

    A man is rich in proportion to the number of things which he can afford to let alone.

    Spotted one at the weekend on my way to my local just parked on the street ... had a 181-D reg but was 100+miles from Dublin
    Quite a rare site ...

    I'd like one too. Like all Tesla's the colour choice is critical between looking super cool or looking like some sort of terrible example of a Japanese market only concept. IMO. :pac:


    Just watched this, an interesting vid, the X driven by a offroad novice on a Norwegian hardcore offroad track:

    .
    For something not designed at all for this, I think it did pretty well. Its porky weight was the problem by far.
    I'd still have one to complement my daily.
