Done, 'oops'.. sorry.

Trophy driver. I can't read through 129 pages however had my first service today. Am I correct in saying that any updates to the infotainment system were chargeable? I have to moan that something isn't working as it should before they will upgrade it - tbh I thought it would be done as a...

Go to the 'Battery' Tile (It thinks about it for a moment), then the 'Cog' at the top right. You choose from 10% increments from 40% to 100%. The 'Mode' (Long-trip mode or Battery Health mode) is indicated appropriately when you return. Interestingly the first time I did this it successfully...

139K ,, Tesla Supercharger Cardiff

I saw this (on my car) and thought 'Sod this' and downloaded the music I wanted to listen to on a USB stick and plugged that in.

Used a Tesla Supercharger - doors open, people in and out of the car - no issues at all. (It's not the car)

8 months in with Trophy - I get 3.5-3.7 m/kWh driving Wrexham -> Widnes (A483 Dual carriageway, A55 Dual Carriageway, M53 Dual Carriageway (yes, I know, it has a hard shoulder so is technically a motorway), M56 Motorway, Dual Carriageway over New Silver Jubilee Bridge into Widnes and then back...

Just looked (comparethemartket) Trophy here - 56 years old - nothing, nada, on driving licence, £440. Me & wife (she has an SP30) £450 (Okay so I have to do this or I will be killed - she enjoys driving the car) 21-year-old daughter is in FTE at Uni (No points) £869 20-year-old son £2K +...

All back - everything went super-easy (apart from the result in the rugby!) Started 100% - Wrexham to Cardiff 140 miles - parked at 42% (As an aside Cardiff Council County Hall Park and Ride is superb for days like this - £12 per car for the day with constant buses back and to - could not fault...

Did some more testing/reading. Tried a 50kW GeniePoint provided by Council - all 3 'Faulted' .. sigh. Tried a PodPoint at Lidl- 50kW - really easy to set up an account in App - within 5 minutes got 48kW charge rate. Also found the Tesla App and 'Charge my Non-Tesla Car' option and found a bank...

Thanks all - appreciate your thoughts.

Cheers Jomarkh 1) Check Zap-map - will do (should have known/remembered this tbh) 2) No -not rapid charged ever. So no, don't have many apps at all to support this (was kind of hoping we'd gone beyond this tbh). The money really isn't the problem - okay it's 10x the cost of at home but I only...

I've had my car for 7 months and can guarantee that neither myself nor my wife has used the 'switch' not dial) on the centre console when lights/uphill junctions etc. We both simply press the brake a tad harder to ensure the car won't creep forwards. However, I do occasionally use the dial to...

I (always) ignore the car (apart from the 80% stuff) and manually set the Zappi schedule. (About to do it now in fact!) I don't think I've ever tested using it in ECO (or ECO+) and had a schedule set up and have it continue charging (from solar) the next day. When I do work from home and the...

Traveling a total of 280 miles (140 each way) on Saturday. Trophy here. I am very nervous about being able to do this on one charge (in fact I'm not going to try it - even assuming 100% state of charge to start!) I can get to my destination and about 1/2 way back in 200 miles where there is...
