I'm finally selling my 2014 S85 because I have upgraded to another model S.
Lots of people are concerned about the lifetime free supercharging: I can confirm the SC01 code applies.
Owning an S is not like a 3 or a Y, it is quite a bit larger and rides beautifully smoothly on smart air suspension that automatically remembers and raises for speed bumps or driveways, while lowering at speed to improve range.
This is a RWD car which means that the front boot is also massive and more practical than both later cars and other alternatives. In addition it has lifetime free transferable supercharging and connectivity - you never pay to charge at a Tesla supercharger or to listen to Spotify etc.
Other benefits of this car.
- Real Leather, not Vinyl/synthetic
- Fully Opening Panoramic Roof
- Optioned with the Premium Sound system, not the base one
- The MCU has been upgraded enabling Apple Music, podcasts, Spotify, YouTube Music (and video) playback natively in the car using the car's free connectivity
- CCS Upgrade: This car supports modern CCS high speed chargers.
- Autopilot included: AP1 makes driving on long trips dramatically easier, it will maintain speed and following distance as well as stay in the lane or change lanes when told to do so. ( This must be supervised at all times ).
- Auto-dimming headlights
- It can automatically park
- It has always been garaged and pampered since new
- The battery condition is still great, maintaining 90% of the original range
- It was optioned with twin AC chargers which enables a wall charger to put 22kW into the car compared to 10kW in Model 3s or 17kW in later Model S. This means charging at non-supercharger sites is faster.
- It has a full service history.
- Tires are in great condition with minimal wear, alignment done recently.
- 19" wheels offer better range and are more pothole resistant than 21"
Why buy an old S vs a newer model 3? Much more room inside, two display screens (one in front of the driver) rather than one, much smoother ride, much more luggage space, free charging, free connectivity, proper ultrasonic parking sensors as well as a reversing camera, fully aluminium body, tilt and slide opening panoramic roof, still getting OTA updates for new features.
