6 months agoI really like my Model 3 but I hate the association with Musk, I was considering buying it at the end of the lease but I’m having second thoughts. Yes, I know I’ve already lined his pockets in a small way!!
I haven’t experienced the poor build quality, in the 2.5 years I’ve had it I’ve not had any issues and only 1 recall for an o-ring replacement on a gas strut.
Tesla needs to be rescued from Musk by one of the established car manufacturers, my vote would be for Mercedes.
I remember when the smoking ban was introduced in the UK and the smell of smoke in pubs and clubs was replaced by the stench of body odour, I was actually wanting smoking to return as it was a more tolerable smell!!
Either I’ve got used to it now or people have learned to wash because I don’t notice it anymore!
