This new function also applies to the TMY too.
That's good to know, thanks Nowty. What do you get with the car for charging? The leaf came with a 3 pin granny and a 7kW cable for out and about.

Been reading that mudflaps are pretty much essential to stop stonechips. I'll get myself a set for Christmas! :)
The same, a standard UK 3 pin plug granny cable charger (10A) and a heavy duty cable for plugging into non tethered AC chargers. Also a set of mudflaps, I dont know if they are spare ones to replace the front ones or if they are optional to fit on the back as there are non fitted on the back. Also a Towing hook and a first aid kit with a fluorescent vest and a warning triangle.

This morning I looked around the Net to try and find RHD Y production figure details at Shanghai. Could not find anything recent but I did come across a link that sent me onwards to this Chinese Drone operator. Pretty amazing achievement, 5.30 onwards, wow! They should give the guy a fulltime job doing roof inspections and pay him for his promotion.

Tesla has started to ask for TMY order confirmations for the UK, so 'early 2022' looks more like being Q1, as oppossed to 30th June as I pessimisticly assumed.
