Buying 2nd hand Model 3 Performance

[mudnomad]

I've decided I want Model 3 Performance and now I'm looking at various 2nd ones.
Could somebody please clarify:

Is this the maximum option for self driving?
Do all Performance models come with track mode and drift mode?
What is the difference in brakes between optional upgrade? Just bigger? 6 pistons Vs 4? Is it a big no if a car doesn't have the upgrade?
How much roughly is a full supercharger charge in the UK?
Does "standard connectivity" mean I need to use a hotspot for watching videos etc but all the other connected options like remote heating, summon etc will still work?

Thank you very much!

No, just means it’s capable of it.

Yes, although there is no specific ‘drift’ mode. Track mode is fully configurable in terms of power distribution and stability/braking aids so you can diy a drift mode.

Performance brakes are just a little larger and have red callipers. They’re nothing fancy. They’re ok. Barring one year (2019 I think) when the Performance pack (spoiler, wheels, brakes) was actually an option, all Performance cars come with ‘Performance’ brakes.

It varies depending on location, and sometimes time of day. Current prices can be seen using the in car nav. Something like 60p per kWh last time I looked.

Correct. Premium connectivity gives you access to to car streaming of Spotify/Apple Music Netflix etc. plus some coloured lines showing traffic volumes on the map. There is no ability to use it as a WiFi hotspot for devices in the car at all. Personally I use use Spotify on my phone and play it over Bluetooth in the car.

How do I find out whether full self driving mode is activated? Where and what does it say?

I think, where it says “Autopilot” in your picture, it would say something there. I don’t have it, as frankly, it’s a waste of money, so I can’t check my own car.

Agree that FSD isn't worth it in the UK so I wouldn't chase a car that has it.
