hello All,

How are you?

looking at a 22 plate performance model. it comes with the 20” wheels. I don’t want to bother with the hassle of changing the wheels and the cost, so can I ask are the wheels as bad as people say? I don’t drive like a nutter, but with the state of the U.K. roads I can’t say I won’t ever hit a pothole so just worried that they are likely to crack or need changing more often?

The other option is a 2023 plate long range AWD and separately I wondered if there would be a big difference in the little things such as the chip in the car and the tech etc?

many thanks.

hello all,

how are you?

I am trying to decide between the above. the performance is fun of course but it lacks the extra one year warranty that the 2023 long range Tesla will have and while the 4.2 second thing is fast, it doesn’t have that Proformance edge.

what about I be looking out for and what is a slightly younger, with the year remaining on the basic warranty worth it, to give up the proformance as it has done over 40k now?

sorry if that isn’t totally clear I have been car shopping for ages!

hello all,

thinking of making the plunge to a used Tesla soon and have found this sub really helpful so thank you.

I have decent enough car knowledge about petrol cars but really am an EV novice.

I currently drive an BMW M240i. Compared to an M2 it seemed the sensible option, still a lot of power and you don’t get that sort of ‘M‘ tax when being serviced etc that you would with the M2.

I wondered if this was the same sort of thing with a Tesla, if the price of upkeep is a big difference between say a proformance all wheel drive to a standard long range all wheel drive and also If people have noticed a big difference between the two driving wise to compare to the price difference?
