Default Tesla

wow

I saw a really really handsome looking car today (on the A414)

it looked like a cross between a new Jag and what you would imagine a Aston Saloon would look like

very very clean but aggressive lines - as I got close it was a Tesla Model S

By far the best looking electric car on the market and they seem to be quite popular too. Just a shame they aren't cheap.

it was stunning tbh - although from the pics the front looks a bit !!!

I only saw it from the side and rear and it looked pretty good on the road

shame no screaming V8 in it though

I test drove a Tesla and they are quite impressive. Constant torque delivered from the electric motors gives great acceleration. Price wise, unless doing 40k+ a year I'd not bother as I'd just buy a good used 5 series for £15k and invest the rest in beer and hookers!

A lot of taxi drivers here in Amsterdam have them. And most I have spoken to have said they would not buy one themselves until some of the niggles have been ironed out.

From experience I can say the rear seats are not very comfy.
