They are no less reliable than ICE cars, in fact if anything they are more reliable, less mechanical parts. Don't be like your canoe, dim! Lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When you consider that you can get a full charge for around £6 you'd be crazy not to consider when in need of a new motor. I prefer to buy vehicles that have reached the end of depreciation. No good having a nice motor when being used for the dogs 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chid 6,761 Posted July 18 Report Share Posted July 18 Had a Tesla in work fitting a towbar to it .. Fella had used it for 3yrs as a taxi then passed it onto his wife to use as her daily car . And he said it was still running fine . Boss has a 2019 model 3 and it's had some stick and it's still grand still gets the same milage out of a charge ect . Don't know why people have so much of an issue with them, Are they any different than most of the leccy and hybrid stuff that's about ? One man's decided to buy one and your all jumping in calling him names and getting on like kids in a playground FFS my cars faster, I've more money next it'll be my dad's bigger than yours ffs, some of you really do need to wise up and enjoy your life and not worry bout other people's .. 1 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There's the first lot of lies ,so why believe the product is anygood 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
