Ever since I have had the 300h I notice that I do not always perfectly align the wheels to parallel lines as I aimto do when driving straight into a marked parking space. The difference between back and front is never big, maybe 10cm at the most and usually greater at the front, but it still occasionally surprises me. Initially I used to attribute this to simple carelessness on my part but, over time, I have come to believe that the sweep of the design of the door panels with its tapering volumes and contrasting colours (ivory/black in my case) has the effect of deflecting the eye slightly away from centre in the course of any parking manouevre. That's an relief, I thought it was just me. D

This is making me want another one.

So you want a SUV that's quick, economical, with plenty of gadgets....Keep an eye out on the Tesla for the model X details.. It wouldn't be cheap, probably start at £60K, but will be based on the Model S drivetrain. So basic spec will be: All wheel drive 250 mile range (on £8-10 of electricity at peak rate - Half that if charging via off-peak rates) 0-60 in around 5 seconds 8 year and UNLIMITED miles warranty on the drivetrain More gadget than an Apple store Memory seats + mirrors FREE use of Tesla supercharges for LIFE!! and Gull wing doors But apparently already a 20,000 waiting list, so you might be waiting a while, delivery due to start Sep-Oct this year (2015) :) http://www.teslamotors.com/en_GB/modelx
