You're just not trying hard enough Ian - my total running cost for the 1st 20k miles in my Telsa was £28 (for 4 home overnight charges from empty to 250 miles).

No oil, no tyre cost, no servicing, no parts replacement, and I still haven't had to replace my original brake pads, after 95k - regen. braking is one of the many, many wonders of my Model S
