I got my EST funds in my account 3 days before I collected my car, tranferred the money to Tesla by BACS which cost £20 but I was certain the funds were transferred to the right account and on the same day.

Yeti because it's white and a beast :D

My comment was about the lack of Supercharges north of the Border, the Chargeplace Scotland coverage is fairly good. I use ZapMap to check on chargers, most are free but some areas do charge a set fee for fast chargers (50kw CCS). Superchargers are in Perth, Dundee and Aviemore and also there...

If you think that’s bad Martin999 you should try the North of Scotland o_O

Just to update the sheet, I collected my car from Edinburgh yesterday (23/08/19), no faults or blemishes despite my best efforts to find some. Definitely well worth the wait and is an absolute beast :D

Thanks for the great write up dst87, your exeperience was similar to mine on my collection yesterday. There were six of us collecting our cars from Edinburgh. The handover process went smoothly enough and despite my best efforts I couldn't find any faults or flaws in the car. Car was also...

Thanks for your replies folks, sounds like a minimum of 50% at delivery which should be enough to get me started home.

Wanted to ask this question of all those who have collected their cars. What was the state of charge (%) when you collected your car? Just trying to see if it's as random as every other part of the Tesla Model 3 experience :D

I had final invoice delivery date of 29th August, then a few weeks later got email and then text for delivery on 23rd August. I don't think the final invoice date is all that accurate, seems to depend on your spec.

Ordered 1st May 2019 originally LR AWD, changed to P+ for less money when prices changed. EST loan and cash buyer.

Just got email for delivery appointment Friday 23rd August in Edinburgh :D

I sent my final invoice to EST last Monday, haven't heard back from them yet, but going by the guys above hopefully today or tomorrow.

Watched a Youtube video by James Cooke and a couple of other EV bloggers who were discussing used EV prices. According to their discussion demand for EV's is rising faster than supply which is pushing up the price of used vehicles. Even older Leaf's are selling for the same or more than 2 to 3...

I don't disagree with your sentiment, but this forum is such a small sample of the Model 3 orders in the UK. It may be that people collecting from the other SC's are not posting on this site or Facebook.

Was thinking of "Lightning McQueen" for my white P+

Demo car in Edinburgh, same spec as mine apart from I have black interior :)

I've just received a Final Invoice in my Tesla Account, passed in on to EST and hopefully everything on the financial side will be sorted by the time I get a definative delivery date. Delivery date on the Invoice was 29th August in Edinburgh which could mean an early train down and a quick run...

I’ve got a SC VIN 449xxx with delivery email for 27/8 to 3/9 in Edinburgh. Looks to be one of the batch of Vins registered on 12th July.

Just to update - I've now got Vin in SC and email for 27/8 to 03/9 delivery in Edinburgh, no final invoice yet.

Got Vin in SC today and email with delivery in Edinburgh between 27th Aug and 3rd Sept.

Thanks :)

Just had the delivery email too :D Edinburgh SC between 27th August to 3rd September.

Same here, also hoping it doesn't disappear :confused:

From where I’m sitting you are both in the South :D

It's a visual affect caused by the IR and UV coatings on the glass roof, seems to appear when the roof is cold and wet as far as I've read.

Sorry RjbT3, I'm adding to your workload. With price drop I've changed to P+ instead of LR AWD, all other specs are as before.

I got the text message but no VIN showing yet... :rolleyes:

I mentioned this in another thread but my first choice was LR AWD in White, Black Interior and 19" wheels, AP only. After the price and colour changes the Performance M3 in White, Black Interior, AP only was £900 cheaper!! Needless to say I made the change and have gone for the Performance...

Yes, original order was white, stayed with the same colour. :)

I’ve just changed from LR AWD to P+, with my options on my original order the P+ was cheaper. o_O

Just got off the phone with Tesla and was told that I would have to reorder to get LR AWD price reduction and no 19” wheels. As I posted before it now costing me less to order Performance in white than my existing LR AWD in white with 19” wheels and AP. So I took the leap and changed my order. :D

Surely they must be adjusting for the price reduction in LR AWD and White as no cost colour? I appreciate the cost of the 19" wheels to still be included as an extra.

That's the reason I chose white, I had a 24 test drive in a white Model S, seeing the Pearl finish up close and in the daylight made my mind up for me. :cool:

I have a dilemma with these new price changes. :confused: My original order was LR AWD, 19" wheels in Pearl white, no FSD, total cost was £50,800. I've priced up a M3P in Pearl White, full performance package, total cost £49,990. I'm aware that Tesla will probably amend my invoice and the...

Another change appears to be Pearl White is the no cost colour choice instead of black. Now I need to contact Tesla as my car has just got almost £3000 cheaper. :D

I'm very similar, April '19 reservation and 1st May order, Pearl White LR AWD, 19" wheels and no FSD. Maybe reservation dates do count :D

Not talking about reservation number, order number is on your Booking Invoice from when you placed your order.

Although I'm a late reservation holder I did order 1st May, order no. 13xx. I've heard nothing, no vin and reckon because I ordered 19" wheels, it's going to delay my delivery.

Must be the 19" wheels then, no vin so far.

Looks like my choice of Pearl White and 19" wheels is knocking me down the list at the moment. ( LR AWD, Black Interior) :(

Just tumbleweed here too....:(

Does appear to be a lottery, depending on what each person ordered. No VIN in source and order number 13xx.

Not sure it does take this long but the initial application process was quoted to take 15 working days to complete. Sure enough on the 15th working day I got the email confirming my successful application. I had been checking my account prior to that and there appeared to be no activity until...

This was part of the conversation when I got a call from Norway end of last week. I had also chosen third party lender, the caller new exactly what I was talking about and also referred to it as EST loan. I need that Final Invoice for EST to process and transfer funds ready for delivery and if I...

Same here :(

I have an order for a LR AWD in white with 19" wheels, reserved 04/19 ordered 01/05/19, completed all the requested paperwork and then heard nothing. I emailed a sales advisor I had dealt with prior to my reservation and soon after received a call from Tesla in Norway! They wanted to check on my...

The recent event held by BMW shows that their outward face is showing willingness to develop electrified vehicles (this is mainly PHEV's not BEV's), their own executives are saying there is "No demand for electric cars" and that a "diesel car will last 30 year and a BEV only 20 years". How are...

In the same category as those amazing Toyota self charging hybrids :D

I've lost all interest in watching Top Gear, their fanatical obsession with ICE supercars and hypercars has no real relevance to 99.9% of their viewers and certainly not me. I remember where they used to review cars that you could actually buy and sports cars were a small part of their overall...

I ordered on 1/5/19, LR AWD in white with black interior and 19" wheels, filled out all the info on my account page and haven't heard a peep since. Nothing showing up on source code page so just having to be patient I suppose. July delivery would suit me fine as Energy Saving Trust is processing...
