Order a Model S or Model X in the UK and you’ll receive a left-hand drive car and a bonus grabbing stick.

Tesla bascailly pulled the S and X out of the UK market and from what I’ve seen on the forums people aren’t interested in a left hand drive car. Not even sure why they even offered to sell them, unless they were worried about being sued by all the people with deposits.

Seems like it’d be awkward and uncomfortable to steer with that thing but I guess you get used to it.

I can’t imagine that at this point it would be a good idea to invest in anything this clown has his fingerprints on.

It’s not just things like reaching for ticket machines, anyone who’s taken their car to a country on the other side of the road knows how disconcerting it is to drive. Oncoming traffic is now in the far side of your vehicle which just makes it less comfortable to drive. You get used to it of course, but it’s never the same as driving on the correct side. No RHD is an absolute deal breaker for many UK drivers in sure

Try overtaking a bus on a country lane without being able to peek out from behind it.
