We concluded our TOUK weekend today in Berlin with a great factory tour. Now heading hime via Tilburg. IYKYK! @teslaeurope
We had our annual exclusive club visit to Giga Berlin today and it was another fascinating trip to see the Model Y production line; from stamping and casting right through to assembly to seeing the cars drive off the line autonomously!

Lots of really interesting info I here with the interview between @larsmoravy and @HenryCatchpole inc: Rear wheel drive Pop down headlights Twin motors =more power than Plaid’s three Three versions depending on how mad you want your Roadster experience.

Basically Tesla is showing off its engineering skills with the new Roadster and made the ultimate Hot Wheels for grown ups. But technically it’s no longer a roadster which is a slight shame. But you probably want a roof when doing 360 rolls.
It’s ok to hate Elon, but don’t let your hate make you say stupid things…

Not a bad start to the day.

The new Tesla Roadster really sucks as Elon said last night. Up to 2g of suction no less. Could be a quick run up the Goodwood hill next year @tesla?!
Real life, baby

The new Tesla Roadster has been unveiled overnight and it has a few tricks up its sleeves. Was it worth the 8 year wait?! Well this will certainly gain some attention that’s for sure.
Do a kickflip!

I’m really not sure about these robots on display at the Denza stand at the paris motor show. I just find them a little bit sinister

Interesting to see that Stellantis seems to have allowed its various marques to make their mark at the Paris motor show. The Lancia Gamma probably the least successful and the Fiat Multiplayer a bit meh; but the 2CV clearly a hit with the crowds as was the Peugeot T16!

I hadn’t realised what a communist Rocardo Bofill was but his post-modern 1978-83 Les Espaces d'Abraxas is quite something and im sure Silo 13 set designers visited (as well as the Hunger Games). Let’s just say taking photos in some areas raised some eyebrow…

Rate my car park! Scenes this evening at Noisy-le-Grand in eastern Paris. A very long overdue visit to this and Les Espaces d'Abraxas by Ricardo Bofill.

Not quite sure what Mercedes-Benz is as trying to say with their “welcome home” slogan at the Paris motor show. Lots of big grilles though.

Interesting to see Tesla really pushing autonomy at the @mondialdelauto today. @teslaeurope @TeslaOwnersUK

Interesting difference in queues for autonomous driving experiences at @mondialdelauto… sadly the few slots for the xpeng all booked up. Whereas @teslaeurope has a big line building!

I seem to have happened upon a rather funky French supercharger this evening! @TeslaCharging @teslaeurope

Yes it’s a bit slower than the tunnel but on a day like this there’s nothing better than arriving in France by sea! And I’ve saved £100 over the ridiculous Le Shuttle price too!

This is going to be interesting but I think I’ll have to watch this on Friday morning as that’s just too early/late to watch live while in Paris.

19:55 in 24 hour clock style reminds me of something…
0-200 mph in 7.55 seconds? 0-100-0 in 7.55 seconds? Boot capacity 7.55 cuft? A very specific start time… for a company renowned for being late!
