What's going on?
I know Musk is a strange character, and of course we don't have any real information, but why would he do this?

I genuinely think he's starting to lose touch with reality. He spends half his waking life on twitter, which is overrun with Stans telling him what a genius he is.

I found myself looking at model X's last night. A serious load lugger with all seats folded.

Except no longer available in Right Hand Drive if you want to buy a new one (same with the Model S).
Another one of Elon's seemingly more daft decisions.

I'd be OK with used. An awful lot of bang for buck there. Plus, the mental rear doors

I wouldn't normally stick up for him, as I do think he seems to be losing the plot in many ways, but this time think it was based on the very small number of sales for those models - I can see that the extra faff and expense of having LHD & RHD production etc wouldn't add up if no one was buying them

Hiya, just in case it's of interest - I seem to recall a test that showed the Model S was as good. Might have been Bjorn Nyland with his 'bananna box' test, where the S beat the X. [Edit - obviously the X is taller, so horses for courses depending on what you want to haul.]

Sounds weird, but the S is big, with the hatchback. Probably more efficient to drive too.

Purely as a reference point, I see Tesla has a 2019 49k mile 100D for £35k (100kWh battery / dual motor).

He's a moron, but its like they say, even a broken clock (assuming analogue!! because there is always one person ^^) is right twice a day.

Some people hang on his every word, its scary.
