Description
I have owned this car for 7 years and she has been fantastic. I no longer do many miles per year and sadly it is time to change to a smaller car so she is now for sale.
This car is in excellent condition - especially the interior that has had very little use. Interior colour combination is light grey leather with Obeche wood inlays.
Key points are:
- This car has lifetime free supercharging at all Tesla superchargers
- Full Tesla dealer service history
- Tyres are Continental SportContact7 and are only 6 months old. This car has always worn the tyres evenly.
- Fitted with winter package (all seats, windscreen, rear screen & wing mirrors are heated)
- Battery is showing 255 miles at 100% charge (was 266 miles when I bought the car 7 years ago).
- This car has rarely been supercharged. 90% of my charging has been done using the 3 pin plug charger (also included) that will charge up at 6 miles/hour from any socket in the house or garage (no special wiring required)
Amongst the service history, the important bits are;
- Main battery fuse replaced (2024) with updated version that will not need replacing again
- High voltage battery heater replaced (2023)
- All relevant Tesla recall work carried out
- CCS upgrade carried out to allow use of the latest V3 Superchargers (includes a CCS adapter, charging port hardware updates & navigation system updates so that the routing includes the new V3 chargers)
- All retracting door handles are working (2 have been repaired over the years)
The bad points on the car are as follows (many are common for a Model S of this age but are listed for completeness);
- There are a few scratches down the left side of the car from hedges on my local roads. There is a chip in the windscreen about the size of a thumb nail (this happened years ago and is no problem during MOT tests)
- If the wind and rain is in the right direction, half a cup of rain water leaks into the drivers foot-well from somewhere behind the dash. The AC normally dries this out quickly.
- The windscreen wiper has started to rub on the bonnet (wiper bushes need replacing)
- All 4 wheels have some kerb damage. The rear left alloy wheel has had a crack welded professionally.
- Some small bubbles are appearing in the digital dash display lamination. This does not affect the display.
- The rear air suspension loses air if the car is left parked for a few days. You sometimes need to give it a minute to pump back up before you next drive away.
