Hi all Looking for thoughts on winter tyres/chains for driving to the French Alps this winter. I'm aware that French legislation requires either winter tyres or chains. I have just put on a set of full winters on the MY LR (Michelin Pilot Alpin). Wondering if I need chains too or whether the...

Another one to have received the text today. Choice of 24 or 25 March at Bluewater. Day 1 order MSM/black/19s. Must be a batch going out today for the London area Stay patient!

Same for me. Day 1 order, declined 19th Feb event as couldn't make it. Finally got EDD 15 to 29 March. London based. No VIN yet. I thought I was going to be being pushed back to May! Stay hopeful!

Model 3 Performance for sale Late 2020 with updates including wireless charging and USB-C. White exterior, black interior. 20 inch Gray Performance alloys. No FSD. Privacy glass applied. Will have around 19k miles on it . Open to reasonable offers.

P Totally agree. I would often stop at SuC that I could've skipped in order to break up the drives a bit. Did all of France in one 13 hour stint with maybe 4 or 5 quick charge stops. Barely felt it at all. Spent probably 90% of the time on AP (no FSD). Can't wait to try it in my MYLR when it...

From someone that drove from London to the Algarve twice since purchasing a Model 3 - quite perfectly. Even better than most highways in the UK in my opinion, given that the roads there are more straight and wide, require fewer constant lane changes and are kept to a generally higher standard...

For anyone trying to get a test drive slot.. I tried the link in this thread at 10pm last night and managed to snag a slot this afternoon at 5pm in Thorpe Park. Seems like they pop up randomly if there are cancellations, etc. So keep trying!

Finance terms appear to be identical to what we got from Blackhorse on our M3P. The car value and resulting monthly payments are exactly the same at least on the PCP option. Not bad..

Can anyone share the codes for Newport Pagnell access barrier please? DM would be appreciated. I see tesla drivers using it regularly whenever I visit on my way south. Aware of the legal status Thanks!

Tesla offered us 16k for a 2013 Cayenne. Sold on autotrader one month later for 24,500. Tesla just use BCA which give much worse prices than even WBAC. Tesla do nothing with the trade in except for handing it directly to BCA who sell at auction and give Tesla the money. The Tesla sales guy in...

Just to add, this behaviour has been consistent for me through all software releases since mid 2020

I'm glad its not just me that is noticing this. I was going to write a post detailing the behaviour and see if its normal but apparently its part of the design of autopilot. I notice particularly on motorways the car biases itself slightly to the left of a lane in AP. I'm used to the feeling of...

I had ours done by PP Protect in Derbyshire - they have done over 100 Tesla's including loads of model 3's, so they are specialists at doing the Roof/Back glass Went with 18% on rear windows and all of the roof/back glass 50% up front. Looks fantastic, particularly set against the white paint...

Just updated to 40.8 on M3P

Just an observation, but we took our brand new M3P to Portugal for a month in August. Left the UK at around 43PSI and got low pressure warnings with 36psi in the tyres within 2 weeks of driving in 30c+ heat. Refilled and back in the UK now and pressures remain at 42psi.

Perhaps a slighy different starting point for us... Just got our M3P about 3 weeks ago (loving it so far..) but with a clear intention to upgrade to the Y once it comes out in RHD. Coming from a Cayenne Hybrid, the size of the 3 is certainly an issue and the Y will be more suited to everyday...

I've read that the battery cells can go out of whack a little bit if you supercharge or fast charge a lot, without doing any slow charges. The battery cells will start to give slightly unequal voltages as I understand. This can result in slight deviations in range and SoC prediction. It seems...

Hi all I've arrived in Spain from the UK en route to Portugal (great timing). Thursday was London - Tours, France Friday was Tours - Madrid. I used superchargers heavily on the way down, and destination charging in Madrid and Tours. The question is... after multiple short snd long SuC...

50% on the front sides and 18% on the rear sides and back glass Completes the "Stormtrooper" look in my opinion

Let's not talk about it...:oops: I guess this changed at some point. I believe I read on Tough Leads website that the UMC comes with both a 13A and 16A socket lead. I'll have to order the 16A from Tesla I guess. Also got the jack pucks and tyre puncture kit just in case! LOL honest mistake...

Thank you, noted! I thought this was happening, but I wasn't sure. It seemed to be smoother if I indicated and nudged in the correct order and timing. Thanks! Good to know. I ordered a Schuko adapter from Tough Leads but its has a blue connector on the other end :(. Oh well will just have to...

Collected yesterday from Heathrow at 10:30. Loads of people there for test drives and collections. Car had 30% charge on handover, and we used the Supercharger outside to get a little juice before setting off. I do not believe it was "free", since it was deducted from our 1000 referral miles...

Yesterday was the momentous day we collected our M3P from West Drayton! We arrived at Tesla HQ at about 9:45 for a 10:30 collection slot. There were already 2 or 3 keen owners waiting. Luckily we were ushered in to the makeshift reception straight away in order to do the final checks and...

For reference.. this was also my experience. Registration, finance agreement and delivery declaration arrived at the same time this morning in anticipation for Thursday collection. Not planning to sign the delivery declaration u til I have seen the vehicle.

Just got the call from Tesla to say my car has been registered! Woohooo Finance agreement came through from Blackhorse for e-signature at the same time. 20 plate.. collecting Thursday 13th

Try post #7036 in this thread. Quite a useful checklist for delivery day. I'm picking up on 13th at Heathrow too - will be following the list Model 3 Orders and Deliveries

The GLOVIS SUN is en route out of Zeebrugge port as I write this, so hopefully we'll be OK!

In my case, I was told the manufacture date over the phone the first time they gave me the VIN. Depends on who you speak to at Tesla I guess

We have some movements... My VIN just appeared this evening in my Tesla account. Directly under the RN number when I go to the Manage page. Exciting... N.B For what its worth, the VIN can obviously now be found in the source code, but the VIN finder chrome extension still says "No VIN found".

My vin is 755 and has a 27 May manufacturing date... uh oh lets see Will report back on wireless and USB-C on the 13th once collected

I'm in the same boat as you... no pun intended Hoping to see lots of new car photos on here next week!

This lines up with what I've been told.. My delivery is on 13th and I was told to expect a text on the 8th (Saturday).

I was told the other day by Tesla that I should get a text 5 days before collection with the reg. That should be this weekend, fingers crossed.. Have just been checking insurance and found Churchill (via meerkats) to also be the cheapest by about 10%. Next was direct line (my backup). LV seems...

It seems to be the luck of the draw when you call up Tesla Delivery... When I called to enquire about the progress of my order a few weeks ago, the first thing the guy said was "You've been matched last night and your car is on a ship called the Glovis Sun" without prompt.. Then proceeded to...

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, however I have not been able to gain any clarity on the SuC situation in Portugal for foreign drivers. Will Tesla customer support be able to confirm the answer? As OP says, some websites mention that Portugal SuC's require a Portuguese bank account/address. I...

Sorry if this has been covered, but just to clarify.. In the event that the Glovis Sun does not proceed to Southampton from Zeebrugge, what will happen to the cars apparently in transit for UK delivery in Mid August? Load on to another ship to Southampton from Zee., or postpone deliveries...

Glovis Sun delivery on the 13th Aug, VIN is 755..

I'm matched to a Glovis Sun M3P with a 13 August collection date and had my VIN given over the phone Got an email today that my Final Invoice has been generated - the invoice confirms the VIN, but there is no change in the profile or any hidden VIN. The car is financed through Tesla/Black...

Just wanted to update... Got my text last night saying I could book a delivery time. Got 13 August at Heathrow for my M3P in white. I was matched last week and given my VIN over the phone - no hidden VIN yet in profile. Car is aboard the Glovis Sun. Originally reserved May 28th and changed...

That shoul I've been told my VIN over the phone, but dont see any change in my account. No VIN in the source at all yet..

Hi Everyone! First time posting here but been following this forum for a while since we ordered a M3 Performance at the end of May. We were matched to a car last night at 6pm, and after speaking with Tesla Delivery on the phone they confirmed the full VIN to me, and that the car is on board...
