Brit Doctor Facelifts the Model X to Perfection

WORDS AND PHOTOS BY JEROME ANDRE

ANDREW transformed his ModelXinto atruly unique masterpiece thanks to the wide arch kit, bespoke wheels, and carbon-fiber accents

CUSTOM 11x22-inch 6AD multipiece forged rims have a rotational design, with reverse rotation on the left wheels and forward rotation on the right ones.

ANDREW Dharman, a London-based general practitioner, admits it was originally his wife, Kasiika, who suggested they get a Model X, but adds, that at the time, “I was like, no way! They’re electric!” He had never even considered owning an electric car because he was so enamored with the power of gas. Interestingly, he now absolutely loves the power of batteries.

Coming from a background of owning powerful German autobahn cruisers, it was only natural for Andrew to be skeptical about going fully electric.

‘‘One of my BMW builds was featured in ‘Fast & Furious 6,’” Andrew proudly reveals. “Shaking hands with Vin Diesel was the pinnacle of car modification culture for me. It was an unforgettable moment.”

The Model X is unlike any other car out there. You enter through the eccentric falcon wing doors and are greeted by the expansive windshield surrounding your head. The rest of the interior feels like a spaceship. However, none of these visual aspects truly won Andrew.
