    UK: Tesla after-sale experience reviews in UK. What’s your experience?

    https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/three-year-lookback-model-3-lr-2021.327259/ Service/support is wafer thin but if you can persist with the app, YouTube videos and forums like this one, our experience is that it seems to work out OK in the end. See my three year lookback M3LR. We are...

    [UK] 2024 Order to Delivery discussion

    For anyone who has picked up/collected in recent weeks, how long did it to take to receive the V5C document from DVLA? Just want to make sure we can expect it before we leave on holiday. Thx

    2024 Shipping Movements

    Tesla's trade-in offer mid-April was £21,203, £2k lower than the offer indicated when I placed the Highland order in March (albeit with 1,500mls more on the clock at that point). My main issue was that the mid-April offer was going to expire 2 weeks before the earliest EDD for my Highland, with...

    2024 Shipping Movements

    I was not happy with the Tesla trade-in offer either (M3 LR 2021). I went with an auction sale with Carwow, better estimate than Motorway or WBAC, and achieved £1,500 more plus a £monthly PCP payment saved. Downside is I need to rely on my wife to get me to Southampton to collect the Highland!

    Three Year Lookback - Model 3 LR 2021

    An EV newbie in 2021, it is time to reflect on my 35 months with an M3 LR 2021 (June) with 18-in aeros sold this week. Our M3 Highland chapter starts with delivery on 5th June when we go again! Total mileage 32,985 miles included 7 trips to southern France (also taking in Corsica and the...

    [UK] 2024 Order to Delivery discussion

    M3 LR 18-in white/black interior, ordered 16 March. Until this morning I was in the EDD 7 to 21 June group (Morning Post?). This morning I was offered a delivery appointment and booked a slot on 5 June (the earliest date offered). Both VIN and reg now show in the app and payment is requested!

    Rubber floor mats M3LR 2021 vs M3LR 2024

    Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere before, but does anyone know if the floor wells on the M3 LR Highland are the same size as an M3 LR 2021? I hope to collect my new M3 shortly and wondered if I could transfer the rubber floor mats from my 2021 M3 to it. If the size is different, I'll be...

    Thank you. Its strange as no problem on the Marine Traffic app tracking RCC Compass, shortly arriving at Southampton.

    2024 Shipping Movements

    Does anyone know the current position of MORNING POST at the moment? The Marine Traffic iOS app has shown it as between Java and Sumatra for many days, suggesting the feed is not updating if arrival in Southampton is to be achieved by 29 May.

    Early termination of PCP

    In my case the agreement states the £ total amount payable including initial and the £ amount which is half of it for the voluntary termination right. Usually, I go for a large initial payment to reduce the monthlies which typically means half the total amount is paid around the end of year 3.

    Early termination of PCP

    Absolutely, but once they reduced to 5.9% with a ridiculous GMFHV£ figure it was a game changer. Was able to arrange so monthly payments at same level as I have now.

    Early termination of PCP

    I am at nearly 36 months on a Tesla Financial Services 48 months PCP. Aggregate payments made to date are above 50% of the total amount payable which is the threshold for early termination without penalty (qualified on damage etc). Having requested the settlement figure to pay-off the PCP, this...

    2024 Shipping Movements

    Has anyone been tracking the MORNING POST? On the Marine Traffic iOS app it does not seem to have moved for a couple of days, whereas the RCC COMPASS seems to move along daily. Perhaps just a satellite issue or could we be in for a delay at Southampton ...

    Early termination of PCP

    So did it affect your credit file? Not sure why it should, its a right available under the agreement with all payments made in accordance with the agreement until its termination. How did the timing work, from notifying BMW Finance to collection of the car (vs collecting your M3P)?

    Early termination of PCP

    I have an M3 LR 2021 on PCP with Tesla FS, with an M3 LR Highland on order. The PCP settlement figure is around £1.5k higher than the trade-in Tesla is offering, though this might narrow slightly using CarWow or Motorway. Payments already made on the PCP exceed 50% of the total amount payable...

    [UK] 2024 Order to Delivery discussion

    My order was on 16th March, M3 LR White, 18-in wheels. EDD in app is currently 7 June - 22 June. Registration number appeared in app yesterday (no VIN yet). Based on MadeAutomatic's really helpful timeline story, I am thinking this number will be assigned to a car from Morning Post ETA...

    Trade in question?

    How did you accept the trade-in offer Dan? Trying to do this in the app, I get to a page Upload Documents/Settlement Letter/0-1 Uploaded and cannot go anywhere from there. Could this be because I do not yet have a delivery appointment (though have allocated reg number, no VIN)?

    2024 Shipping Movements

    I submitted a PCP application via the app to CA Auto Finance this morning to keep my payment options open. Interestingly, the CA pre-contract credit information document shows a VIN number for the RN of my M3 LR order (starts LRW, I am assuming Morning Star), though the VIN is still blank in the...

    2024 Shipping Movements

    The PCP rate on the Tesla web site estimator for the M3 LR dropped to 5.9% this morning (from 9.6%) which makes a heap of difference, and the GMFV£ on 48mths is now £19,996 (£20,496 last week). Given the turmoil on EV market and s/h values, PCP is now looking like a feasible option for risk...

    2024 Shipping Movements

    On the app my EDD changed this morning to 7 June - 22 June (was 26 May - 13 July), which looks on track for MORNING POST. Weirdly, I had to accept a spec change from USS to Tesla vision which I thought was standard spec for M3 Highland anyway!

    2024 Shipping Movements

    New to this thread and loving it ... I ordered an M3H LR white/photon wheels on 16 March, app shows EDD 26 May to 13 July (no VIN number visible yet). I am thinking this is likely to land with RCC Compass ETA Southampton 9 May. I am juggling my M3 trade-in expiry on 23 May and family...

    Issues with charging port door

    Does anyone have any recent experience with this issue when the manual opening of the flap for the charge port stops working ("CP_a051")? We have a UK Model 3 LR, 2021. Manual opening of the flap stopped working about 1 month ago (no problem opening flap from touchscreen, voice command, mobile...

    Notes from a Small Roadtrip - UK to Norway via Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Sweden

    The regen is really quite interesting for nerds. We were in the Pyrenees at the end of September (warm, not hot). At the Col du Tourmalet 2115m loved by Tour-de-France aficionados our M3LR was at 45% SoC, then we drove down to St Marie de Campan c. 867m and up to Col d'Aspin 1489m, arriving at...

    Notes from a Small Roadtrip - UK to Norway via Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Sweden

    There was discussion but the hat is still intact and the wife still travels with me in the Tesla! More seriously, our Norway trip reinforced how speed (with temperature) is such a significant factor on efficiency. We drive to southern France 2-3 times per year and rarely cruise at the full...

    Notes from a Small Roadtrip - UK to Norway via Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Sweden

    Hi We also had a fantastic 3-week road trip to Norway in May-June 2023, travelling via Holland, Germany, Denmark, including Belgium and France on the return. Here is more info to share. In our case, we were able to use superchargers exclusively (to 80/85% SoC in our 2021 M3LR). Our planning...

    Podcasts Greyed Out

    The Spotify refresh does not seem to change anything unfortunately. It is still not possible to play on the Tesla any BBC Sounds podcasts that are in my Spotify podcast library, whether in the UK or abroad, even though they are visible in my library listing. On other platforms (iPhone, Windows...

    Todays problem: Steering Assist Reduced, Park Assist Not Available, ABS, Traction Control and Air Bag Warnings (and probably others)

    We had a similar fault arise with our M3 LR 2021 (18,000 miles) on 2 March whilst in southern France. Approaching Aix-en-Provence on the motorway, the steering assist reduced warning came on first, followed over a period of miles by brake boost fault detected, ABS, traction control, vehicle hold...

    Podcasts Greyed Out

    Interesting Greebo, thanks. Your experience seems to be similar to ours. The strange thing is that we can happily use BBC Sounds, including podcasts, from on a mobile or from a local Internet connection for streaming when we are in France (though we need a VPN with UK IP to use the...

    I have a UK M3 LR on software 2022.44.25.3 with premium connectivity. I recently signed up to Spotify premium as it is is supposed to allow access to content in Europe if initially accessed in the home country. The idea is that we would access our Spotify library in France where we are frequent...
