I bought a £140k top-of-the-range Tesla and the quality is awful – what’s going on with your cars Elon? | The Sun
A MAN who bought one of the most expensive Tesla’s currently on sale has slammed the quality of the luxury motor, and warned others against buying a similar electric car.
The EV driver bought a ‘fully-loaded’ Model S Plaid which set him back an eye-watering £140k.
TikToker @stathios uploaded his video to show viewers the problems he’d experienced with his flash new electric car.
He starts the video by saying: “2022 Tesla Model S Plaid, fully loaded, and this is why it SUCKS.”
@stahios then explained how he’d just had the car delivered, and found that the door doesn’t even close properly, while a walkround the car showed off the irregular panel gaps in the car’s bodywork.
The poster then asks: “What’s going on with your cars Elon, how are you selling people this for this much money?”

Showing footage of him pushing and pulling at the Tesla's interior trim, the TikToker continues: “I mean this thing is flimsy, it looks like it’s held together by duct tape. Everything is just so Fisher-Price.
“If you want to pretend like you’re saving the planet, buy an Audi e-tron GT.”
The video has had almost 200k views, and people were quick to comment.
One said: “A self driving Tesla could run over an Elon fan and they’d still defend the car/him.”
