Teslas are low! I'm over 6'1 and near 100kg myself but I'm used to much smaller, much lower sports cars
Her Old Man is around 6 foot 5 and can get in and out of the i3 comfortably and has enough room, at least up front, don't remember if he sat in the back, he was surprised actually how roomy it is.0 -

Of course. Thanks for reminding us, we nearly forgot
You won't miss REx for a second as soon as you get a longer range EV and / or the public charging infrastructure improves. The latter has happened tremendously already since the end of last year because there is no longer free fast charging.
Not good enough I'm afraid, it has improved but unfortunately not nearly enough.
When I can charge at 100 Kw and more It will be a big upgrade, but Winter may still take it's toll with a cold battery some maybe more than others.
There is still a severe lack of chargers all around the west/South West and up to Donegal.
To be honest we need a fast charger in every garage on the Island, this would be the start of a proper infrastructure.
A law passed that would mean 100 Kw charger in every petrol station, make the oil companies pay.
I can have 300 Km range but I still need to charge and charging a 60 odd Kwh battery on a 45 Kw charger isn't too appealing when I got the Family waiting going nuts.0 -

A Model 3 is your only man then at present really. You'll have the benefit of fast charging at their superchargers, the Ionity locations, the new ECars hubs & 11/12kW AC charging.
A saloon though but fast enough & rear wheel drive which you'll value as an enthusiastic driver
.
Maybe if you wait a few years, a Model Y.0 -

Maybe maybe not, that boot would probably annoy me a lot. But I must arrange a test drive, not a big fan of that minimalist interior.
I saw a model Y on Sunday up close, big car, would take a good few years to come down to a good price then I'd be back to the issue I have with the Model S, good few years old, high mileage but decent size.0 -

Coming from an i3, the boot of an M3 is like a massive cave!
Can’t see how you’d have space problems after an i3 boot. I couldn’t even get the weekly shopping in my i3 boot!
The problem is access and you can't haul around big stuff with the seats down so what the model 3 is good for and i3 not the i3 is good for and Model 3 not.

Ex. Vat?
No Including VAT and we have to register online for online billing and all that.
See here the prices, but they will not give it to existing customers which is why I cancelled and got my Partner to set it up, we're not married obviously so the different name causes no suspicion.
Couldn't set it up with the Joint account either because they wanted both names and they might have spotted that so she has to pay it from her account.
According to my previous Bill I was paying this per Kwh Day/Night , they were fleecing me, this what they do, fleece existing customers.
0.219 C/Kwh Day
0.105 C/Kwh Night
Then at the bottom is + Vat so it looks as though those prices per Kwh were excluding vat and the real cost would be
0.219 C/Kwh Day = 29.565 c/Kwh Inc VAT
0.105 c/Kwh Night = 11.197 c/Kwh Inc VAT.
Or am I reading that wrong ? Damn robbers if they were, it went up a lot for me then.

Anyway, we will now pay.
14.22 c/Kwh Day
6.83 Night.
After giving Energia the two fingers who did you go to? 0 -

Energia, lol but you're missing what the two fingers was for and that was them fleecing us so I set up as new customer under the missus name.
They are fleecing existing customers who are out of contract and my unit cost day and night was much more expensive than it is now and a lot more than it was, they are fleecing existing customers to pay for the new signups at reduced prices.0 -

Well for some odd reason, it just started working again.
Decided to give it a go as I was exporting nearly 4kw an hour to the grid, and it worked first time.
Then I reduced the car onboard speed so it was only consuming 3.6kw and left it to run.
Now this is much better.
