Tesla comes to town

Back in October 2018, maybe 80 trolleys ago, I spotted a Tesla in Dover Street, more or less opposite the Clarence, and noticed at reference 1.

So just to prove that I live in a respectable area, I am pleased to be able to report that one has turned up in Manor Green Road. On charge this morning. I thought it was a Model S, but cannot now say for sure: they all look the same to me and saying '75' bottom right doesn't help at all.

Number plated by the company itself, so perhaps you have to buy them direct, rather than through some intermediary. According to their web site, £4,000 down will secure you a place in the queue, with the earliest delivery being May. £76,000 or so to complete the purchase.

PS: Wednesday: the glyph bottom left turns out to be 'Model S', although I would not have cared to have had to bet on what can be seen by zooming in on the (6Mb of) original snap. Perhaps the trouble is that it is shiny and Cortana can't break out the chrome from the shine. 'Model' just about legible, but the 'S' looks more like a 'Q'.
