Genuinely disappointed to see the Porsche AND the 190E go.
The 190E really had my interest.

Good luck with the Tesla. frown

Understandable changes when you have a family but I thought the Model 3 would make a good family run around. At least I certainly hope so, we’re about to get a 21 plate standard range to keep my RS4 company.

Edit - I’m guessing the lack of dog space was the issue.

To be fair, I have built it up too much now and have already touched on it. In fact it isn't as cool as the 190e, but its still an 80's relic. I bought a 205 to quench the need for an analogue car. I had to be able to fit it in the garage easily AND be able to walk around it/work on it in winter. The 190e fit, but I was trapped.

Exactly that, it was a great car- very capable but in the back of my mind I was concerned about stuff going wrong out of warranty, things would be expensive quickly. It will very unlikely be battery of powertrain related, they're bombproof. More likely something in the interior and it costs a small fortune because tesla refuse to sell you a part, rather the whole piece of equipment.
