    Tesla Q2 2019 Vehicle Production & Deliveries - UK Model 3 perspective

    Good point, hadn't thought about the model X, yet another load of bull$hit from a salesman.

    Tesla Q2 2019 Vehicle Production & Deliveries - UK Model 3 perspective

    I was told by Tesla that they are not allowed to fit a towbar to a performance model (they even joked it would be cool to tow something 0-60 in 3.2s), referencing some eu regulation, so the difference between AWD LR and P- is probably firmware upgrades to a number of sub-systems and probably not...

    Tesla Q2 2019 Vehicle Production & Deliveries - UK Model 3 perspective

    Yes, there are no hardware differences between the two cars, the AWD LR has a software limited acceleration profile.

    Performance Trim or Not?

    Had a P- on order, looked into buying after market wheels and better brakes, decided for 3.7k I couldn't even come close so added the performance package.

    The 1000 VIN's are being allocated

    @VanillaAir_UK As far as I remember you can't, they are not sequential

    The 1000 VIN's are being allocated

    I think thats a bug, it should be const delivery = new Nightmare();

    What New Owners need to Know - UK FAQ

    I'm not convinced that's correct. I provided them with slightly different registration details and I got a credit note.

    More Uk-bound Ships?

    I own Tesla shares and I've had a model S since June 2014 (first batch) and I'm afraid to say the experience this time around with my model 3 order is far worse than 5 years ago, yes they have more orders, but it isn't like they've just started selling the model 3. I like many others am a real...

    Change to SR+ Price?

    Clearly the original order was incorrect and yes I got one too, but in reality mistakes like this happen and nothing is really legally binding. If you try to contest it, you'll loose and someone will probably end up getting your car.

    Change to SR+ Price?

    To be fair, the order clearly states the price "EXCLUDES" the plug in grant, so it's actually a valid invoice, although no idea whats happening to the grant then.

    Change to SR+ Price?

    It wouldn't be so bad if they hadn't also spammed out an email to everyone notifying us of the change and the new order agreement (with the increased price). I suspect *everyone* is now trying to call them. Its not getting any better at the moment is it ... have even considered cancelling a...

    Anyone Else Ordered Lr?

    @Avendit I noticed the same thing after I called them to correct my registration info, I now have 2 booking invoices and a credit note ???

    First Photo Of Inside The M3 Rhd

    @Mark_T Elon is pretty convinced the instrument cluster won't matter in years to come with self driving and although he has done a U turn on some things, it doesn't happen very often (he's usually right). I have a model S at the moment with a 3 coming very soon and have FOMO about losing my...

    Top Speed of M3 Perfomance vs Performance plus

    I too have the P- on order and am hoping its 3.2, but the reality is that some of that time is most likely attributed to the better grip from the 20 inch low profile tyres. Time will tell, but I think on 18" aero's its likely to be closer to 3.5s

    They're here.....

    It could but it’s restricted by software. Not sure 0 to 60 in 3.x seconds backwards is a good idea

    Aftermarket model 3 wheels

    My model 3 order was ordered with the Aero wheels, which are ok, but would like to consider purchasing turbine style alloys. Problem is that ordering from the US is a PITA. Does anyone know of what options are available for aftermarket model 3 wheels (turbine style) that don't require US...

    Home charging options

    @vitesse I have owned a model S for 5 years and used a similar setup many times when on holiday in remote locations. In theory it should be ok, but in reality what happens is that drawing that amount over long periods of time is unreliable (it stopped many times) and I found that reducing the...

    Are future Tesla reservations dead?

    Complete speculation, but I suspect under the pressure of all the orders, sales phone calls and changing specifications (reduction in price of performance model) they messed up, but since they were then allocated and communicated they couldn't really call people up and say "sorry you shouldn't...

    Are future Tesla reservations dead?

    Just over 3 years ago, many of us put down £1000 or $1000 (in some cases) to reserve a model 3. We were told priority would be given to existing owners and cars would be delivered strictly in reservation order. If you read the various posts on the forums across this site, twitter and...

    Ship with 1000 Models 3's are on route...

    The logistics of shifting 150 cars followed by 2000 and then another 2000 cars from Zeebrugge (via factory in Tilburg?) to the UK are pretty staggering. Assuming they can carry 9 at a time on a car trailer, thats 16 trips, followed by 222 and then another 222. You would think they might have...

    Ship with 1000 Models 3's are on route...

    I upgraded from LR AWD, but in theory it shouldn't make a difference as they reportedly produce cars based on most common configurations sold and match up when they arrive.
