The Model 3 is a much better proposition for UK/most European roads, as both the S and X are really a bit too big/wide. All the M3 really loses is the practicality of the S/X's hatchback (and hence load swallowing..) capability, but it more than compensates for that by being massively better value for money for most people and (allegedly... ) has better handling too!

No Tesla is a "luxury" car, if you want all the bells & whistles, such as massage seats, etc, but that's not what they're about, really.
