It has since had the CCS upgrade, which includes the adaptor and allows access to V3 & V4 Superchargers and all of the other brands across Europe.
I've owned this car for 2 and a half years and was expecting to own it for many more, but financial circumstances changed, and I upgraded to a 2020 model S, which cost almost double and is basically the same car. I chose the 100D over the performance as it is already blisteringly quick at 4.2s to 60mph and range and efficiency are the real killer features of an EV
Due to being sold by Telsa after it's press usage, the Battery & Motor warranty was extended by them to February 2026 which is longer than most of this age and gives comfort over the battery. Tessie however shows degradation at just 9% which is phenomenal for its age and mileage, though evidence emerging shows that the batteries last way longer than expected and are mostly a non-issue.
I've some service history from my ownership, which i will pass on. The 12v battery was replaced, as was the wiper motor and a front bumper wiring harness. The pyro fuse recall has been done
The Stop Elon sticker can be left or removed. There's also a Green German City sticker in the window from a European trip. It's still valid but can be removed easily.
It has the Tesla med kit, destination charger cable, CHAdeMO adapter, Tesla Granny charger and a couple of extra bits.
