the S and roadster are totally different cars, i want it to keep as a weekend car. Budget it the market price for one,

It looks to be very problematic. The Model S has better performance with Ludicrous speed.
There's also apparently going to be a replacement model in 2019.
It really depends what you want from it, and what your budget is.

I was involved in the sale and the result was hugely disappointing. The auction was very badly run, to such an extent that I've noticed they have taken details of the auction off their own website.

Looks like it was bought by a UK buyer as is showing as taxed.

It's absolutely fantastic. They really should make a new one!
What's the long term view? Will they be considered a classic I wonder.

[dickyf]

I'm not sure he should have bothered!!
there is so little info on these cars. Even Tesla look confused when they are mentioned..

James Cooke did a review-ish video on it a few months ago.

100% a future classic. IMO.
