An outstanding video. More information in half an hour than anyone deserves.

Not going to lie, i saw it was 33 minutes long and was NOT about to watch. Very glad i did end up watching. Fantastic video, very informational. Saved some money and got a 2014 model s 85 instead of the 3 and I’m m very happy i did.

3 yrs later being in the used model s market this video is a goldmine of information. thank you for being an intelligent and informed subject matter expert as compared to the other 99% of shallow and useless videos.

If I was living in the UK, I would have bought a car from you.😃

This is quite possibly the most useful and informative Tesla Model S video posted on any platform. It’s clear to see you are a fan who has harness a genuine enthusiasm for Tesla and turned it into a successful business. Hats off to you for that! I’ll look forward to seeing any future content on high mileage or very high mileage cars, in the name of research of course!

Great video! after comparing a used S vs 3, I bought a 2015 S85D from Tesla in April 2019, with 12, 004 miles. It was a returned 3 year lease and felt like a brand new car. At that time, it came with a 4 year/50, 000 mile warranty starting from my delivery date, free supercharging and free premium connectivity. 19” wheels, Technology Upgrade with Autopilot 1.0, all heated seats, premium sound system with subwoofer, and panoramic sunroof. Best part was the price, about 60% of the sticker price. I LOVE it.

A few months ago I had Tesla upgrade the MCU1 to the new MCU2. Now I have all the games and video theater of a 3. Still prefer my beautiful S85D!

I'm a Model S owner and you covered everything. And I mean everything. I don't think you missed any single thing! I feel silver is the best color for the Model S. What a shame they discontinued it. Also a shame the panoramic sunroof was discontinued.

Really been thinking of getting a Tesla! It's nice to meet a independent dealer with good integrity, I may come from London and buy one your cars! Great video mate

This was so incredibly useful, and I wish you had a dealership or two here in the US! Thank you for taking the time out to make this and educate us who are looking to pickup a model S.

Don’t let the length of the video stop you from watching
This was an excellent video

Thank you 😊

Best model S buyers guide I have come over!
Excellent!

[carlchilders]

This has to be the best and most informative video on buying a specific used car I’ve ever seen. I learned so much in 33 mins I’ve decided that a used Tesla S is what I want to focus on. I was already convinced that I wanted a Tesla but had thoughts on whether a used Tesla was OK. Now I know it is. Anyone that buys from you has to sleep well at night. Thank you

[MetalVII]

I just wanted to say thank you.

Thanks to this very informative video I had a better idea and understanding of what I wanted.

I managed to land a Model S, 2018, Subzero weather pack, Smart Suspension, MCU2, CCS upgrade, Black leather Premium seats, Carbon Fibre interior, Opening Sunroof, EAP, FSD computer, Premium Upgrade Pack, GPS Homelink, Premium Upgrade Pack, Power and Light Pack and Sentry Mode.

I love it and I charge at home using Intelligent Octopus and Solar Panels.

Once again. Thank you.

Currently living in Scottsdale, AZ, but planning to move partly back to England for Tbe summer when I retire. I own two Tesla’s here in the U.S., and will visit you when I finally move back go the UK. Tesla’s are wonderful cars 👍

I am one of the lucky ones. Although I live in central Texas, I bought a second hand 2013 Model S from an individual in Sacramento, California in April, 2020 sight unseen (except in photos) with 91K miles. The seller posted over 30 photos and answered ALL of my questions regarding condition of the car before I made the purchase, but if you ask the right questions and verify the veracity of the answers, then you can come out fine. However, buying that way is still a gamble.

Excellent video; I only wish I had found it before I recently purchased my 2018 Model S P100D. I wrongfully assumed that ALL 2018s had MCU2, and of course, mine was an earlier 2018 that still had MCU1. Also, another critical point you mentioned is if the pre-owned Tesla has been back in the hands of Tesla or was purchased by the 3rd party dealer/seller from a Tesla auction, as they will strip Full-Self Driving Autopilot. Mine had it on the advert (the selling 3rd party dealer didn't advertise it), but after I picked up the car, it had for about two days, but as soon as the ownership was transferred to me, Tesla removed FSD and claimed it never had it. Customer service didn't care and told me I'm sol! Thank you for a great video; I'm commenting so that it hopefully helps others not make the mistake I've made.

[Salubrious]

Absolutely brilliant video, I'm a petrol head who wasn't interested in Tesla's until now. Your highly informative and non salesy approach is excellent, when I'm finished with my BMW 730d I'll be knocking on your door.

[jeffreylouie]

Wow, this is by far the best video on used Tesla S! Definitely will be referring to this when I start researching for my Tesla S.

[nickarruda]

A year later, and this is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very kindly.
