Description
Free Supercharging for Life SC01 WHY SHOULD YOU BUY THIS EXAMPLE:
- ✔ Have you ever had a car with £20 road tax AND free Supercharging for life? → This P85D
- ✔ Have you ever had a car that physically hurts your face accelerating from low speed? → P85D
- ✔ We named it "The Healer"
- ✔ Headache? Just launch it from 0-60 and it disappears faster than taking a quadruple dose of paracetamol 😈
- ✔ Want a performance car that destroys 99.9% of traffic lights encounters? → P85D
- ✔ Nearly 700bhp with basically no fuel bill? → P85D
- ✔ Ohhh… did I mention free Supercharging for life? → P85D
- ✔ Instant torque - no turbo lag, no drama, just teleportation
- ✔ Tesla Model S P85D - still one of the most ridiculous bargains in performance motoring
- ✔ Silent assassin energy - family saloon appearance, hypercar launch feeling
- ✔ Only around £17k worth of fitted extras… somebody definitely clicked every option box
- ✔ Massive screen, massive comfort, massive acceleration
- ✔ You'll embarrass sports cars while carrying shopping bags
- ✔ The kind of car that makes passengers swear involuntarily
- ✔ Want to spend nothing on fuel and everything on rear tyre wear? → P85D
- ✔ Want your passengers to question physics? → P85D
- ✔ This is not "quick for an electric car"
- ✔ This is just QUICK. WHY YOU SHOULDN'T BUY THIS ABSOLUTE MIND TWISTER:
- ✔ You enjoy slow acceleration and engine noise pretending to be speed
- ✔ You think 0-60 should take enough time to send a text message
- ✔ You want to keep visiting petrol stations for "the experience"
- ✔ You dislike effortless overtaking
- ✔ You're emotionally attached to getting gapped by family saloons
- ✔ You think free charging for life sounds terrible somehow
- ✔ You want a "performance" car that loses to a Tesla taxi
- ✔ You're scared of torque-induced giggling
- ✔ You enjoy sensible decisions and calm driving
- ✔ You don't want every passenger screaming "WHAT THE HELL" during launch control ✔ …otherwise, this thing is absolutely ridiculous 😏 Rafinski Motorhaus is a small independent dealership run entirely by the owner. You deal directly with me, not sales staff. I am slightly obsessed with cars, especially VAG group products, which probably explains why I still have no idea how a nearly 700bhp Tesla ended up in stock. Every car is personally selected and prepared as if I was buying it myself. Have you ever owned a car that could embarrass supercars, cost next to nothing to fuel and potentially charge for free for life? This Tesla Model S P85D is what happens when someone at Tesla decided that family transport was simply too sensible. Nearly 700bhp, dual motor four wheel drive and acceleration violent enough to make passengers question their life choices. Finished in a sleek and understated colour combination, it looks more executive express than tyre smoking monster. That is exactly the appeal. While BMW M5 and AMG owners are busy announcing their arrival, the P85D simply disappears into the distance in complete silence. Then there is the famous Lifetime Free Supercharging. A feature that has become almost mythical among Tesla enthusiasts and one of the most sought after options ever fitted to a Model S. Fast enough to make motorway slip roads feel like amusement park rides. Comfortable enough to drive across the country without breaking a sweat. Practical enough to take the family and the shopping. We nicknamed this one The Healer. Launch it once and any headache instantly becomes somebody else's problem. Good P85Ds with Lifetime Supercharging are getting harder to find. If you have been looking for the right example, this one will make a lot of sense.
About the Tesla Model S
The Tesla Model S has long been the benchmark for electric performance and luxury saloons. Even as newer rivals emerge, its blend of blistering speed, cutting-edge technology, and impressive range continues to appeal to discerning UK buyers. This guide will help you navigate the pre-owned market and make an informed decision.
Why Buy a Tesla Model S?
- Performance: Even older Model S variants offer supercar-baiting acceleration, thanks to instant electric torque. Later models are blindingly fast.
- Technology: The minimalist interior is dominated by a large touchscreen, controlling almost all vehicle functions. Over-the-air updates constantly improve the software.
- Range: The Model S has always been a leader in electric vehicle (EV) range, making long-distance journeys far more feasible.
- Charging Network: Tesla's Supercharger network is arguably the best and most widespread in the UK, offering rapid charging on the go.
- Environmental Credentials: Zero tailpipe emissions make it an attractive choice for eco-conscious drivers.
- Low Running Costs: Electricity is generally cheaper than petrol or diesel, and EVs have fewer moving parts, meaning less maintenance.
UK Price Guide (GBP)
Prices for used Tesla Model S vehicles vary significantly depending on age, mileage, battery size, and specific variant. The figures below are approximate guides:
| Model Variant | Approx. Price Range (GBP) | Typical Age/Mileage |
|---|---|---|
| Model S 75D / 90D | £30,000 - £45,000 | 2016-2018 / 50,000 - 80,000 miles |
| Model S 100D / P100D | £40,000 - £55,000 | 2017-2019 / 40,000 - 70,000 miles |
| Model S Long Range (Late Model) | £50,000 - £70,000 | 2020-2021 / 20,000 - 50,000 miles |
| Model S Plaid | £80,000+ | 2022+ / Low mileage |
Note: These prices are indicative and can fluctuate based on market demand and individual vehicle condition.
Specs (Typical)
- Battery Options: Ranging from 60kWh to 100kWh (and larger for newer models).
- Range: Official WLTP ranges vary from approximately 250 miles for early models to over 400 miles for newer Long Range and Plaid versions.
- 0-60mph: From around 5 seconds for older models to under 2 seconds for the Plaid.
- Charging: AC charging (home/destination) and DC fast charging (Superchargers).
- Drivetrain: All-wheel drive (Dual Motor) is standard on most variants.
- Interior: Seats five, with a large central touchscreen and often a second screen for the driver.
Common Issues
While Teslas are generally reliable, some common issues can arise with used models:
- Build Quality: Early models sometimes suffered from inconsistent panel gaps and interior trim rattles.
- Door Handles: The pop-out door handles can occasionally stick or fail.
- HVAC System: Issues with the air conditioning or heating system can occur.
- Battery Degradation: While generally slow, some degradation over time is expected. Check battery health if possible.
- Infotainment Screen: Rare screen failures or glitches can happen.
- Suspension: Air suspension components can be a point of failure on higher-mileage vehicles.
Running Costs
The beauty of an EV lies in its lower running costs:
- Fuel: Electricity is significantly cheaper per mile than petrol or diesel. Home charging overnight is the most economical.
- Maintenance: EVs have fewer moving parts than internal combustion engine cars, meaning no oil changes, exhaust systems, or traditional transmission issues. Brake wear is also reduced due to regenerative braking.
- Taxation: Currently, EVs benefit from zero road tax (VED) in the UK.
- Congestion Charge/ULEZ: Tesla models are exempt from London's Congestion Charge and Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) charges.
Variants
The Model S has evolved significantly over the years. Key variants to look out for include:
- 75D/90D/100D: These denote the approximate battery capacity (kWh) and signify all-wheel drive Dual Motor configurations, offering a good balance of range and performance.
- P100D: The 'P' stands for Performance, offering significantly enhanced acceleration alongside a large battery.
- Long Range: Later models with larger batteries and improved efficiency, maximising range.
- Plaid: The current flagship, boasting extreme performance with a tri-motor setup and incredible acceleration.
- Facelifted Models: Later models feature updated interiors (like the yoke steering wheel on some Plaid models), improved software, and enhanced range.
When buying used, always check the vehicle's service history and ensure all software is up to date. A thorough pre-purchase inspection is highly recommended.
