I also got V10 overnight, 2019.32.12.1 - SR+ without FSD.

I've discovered over the weekend that my rear passenger side door is collecting water... When I open it after sustained rain, it's like I've tipped over a bucket - just gushes out. Also the ghosting on the windscreen is terrible, is anyone else finding that? I'm seeing two of everything, bikes...

I've lost count of the number of "collision warnings" that have flashed up as I go to drive round a corner with a car parked on it, or because of a shadow, or because of a bridge. I've lost count of the amount of phantom braking that has happened, seemingly completely randomly. I've lost count...

Thanks both, I think I had somehow decided that the 32A commando being an optional extra meant that the 16A was as well!

Does the Tesla Mobile Charger include a 16A adapter? The website says it does but...just want to check?

Yeah, I don't have anything there at the moment - it disappeared a while ago and hasn't come back. I'm sure it will!

The silly thing is, they have this information. The guy my lease company speaks to was able to check some internal system and see exactly where my car was at that very moment. So it's not even like they can't give a tracking system, they just don't want to.

Same for me, except I haven't got a final invoice! Last week, my lease company was told that 100% the car would be ready for collection, at the latest, by Monday 9th but probably by Thursday 5th. Then when I got the text on Wednesday 4th for collection on the 12th, my lease company was told my...

Ha! You sweet summer children. I ordered on May 3rd, had a VIN and delivery scheduled for the 24th - 31st August...and now a delivery date of the 12th September. Which 60% of me expects them to miss.

What did Churchill quote via the comparison sites for you? I'm getting £2k quotes from them online, and in my experience calling an insurer just gets a more expensive quote...so this is interesting to me... If you can save me £150 on my insurance I'll buy some mats from you!

I did a slightly different tactic with my Jag - put my Mum on the insurance as a named driver and it saved me £200 a year on my insurance, because she's a driving instructor. For my Tesla, putting her on puts it up £250! I actually don't think you'd save anything being a named driver, instead...

Yeah, the lowest on there was nearly £2,000 with an £1,100 excess. I'm paying a premium for my postcode - if I lived 3 doors down in N12, instead of in N20, it'd be £500 cheaper and if I lived at my dad's in the Midlands it's be over £900 cheaper. Still expensive, just not quite so outrageous.

I'm 28 with 8 years NCD, no points and a licence for 10 years and the cheapest I found for SR+ was £1,889 with Direct Line. Which is £600 more than my Jag XE and £1200 more than the Seat Leon I had before that. So this makes me very upset :confused:

I'm fairly confident there's a bottle neck in Belgium slowing stuff down. My car, according to the contact my lease company uses, has been sat in Zeebrugge waiting for a truck to bring it over since before August 28th - it's still there, and won't arrive at Heathrow until September 11th... My...

Yeah, mine disappeared several days ago and I've got a delivery appointment, so...can't be a big deal?

Same, I haven't even successfully bought mine yet, let alone sold any to friends and family!

Feb 2017, May 3rd 2019 - I need to update the above though, I told my lease company my updated estimated order date and they contacted their own person at Tesla, who told them actually my car is in Belgium waiting to be loaded up and should be here in 6 days...so actually, the Tesla bloke I...

Hadn't hear Have you heard anything Yev? I just spoke to Tesla and...astonishingly...with no contact in between the 25th July when they emailed me with an estimated delivery of 24th-31st August and now...my new estimated delivery date is... The last week in September, or first week in...

I hope so, I sold my car yesterday!

Mine is £1,889.79 a year with an £850 excess for an SR+, 15k miles, 28, 8 years NCD. An extra £180 to cover NCD too, and if I lower the voluntary excess from £350 to £0 it puts the insurance up £500 a year. All these low hundreds quotes make me very sad. Stupid London prices.

Answers my question of whether they're working to day! Congratulations, you lucky, lucky b**tard. I've got a delivery window of 24th-31st August and the suspense is killing me. Every time my phone vibrates, I get a bit upset that it's friend/family/girlfriend and not Tesla telling me to collect.

I'm with you, Yev. 24th-31st at Heathrow...I'm daring to dream...

Both Model 3s I test drove had quite firm feeling brakes (Performance and SR+), so I'm pretty confident you've got nothing to worry about. They worked fine when needed, especially with regen combined.

The quote I got for my Jaguar XE from them was £1,500 less than webuyanycar and £2,000-£2500 less than I expect I'll get for it off auto trader/eBay.

Email from Tesla, I still haven't had any of the texts everyone else has been getting

I have a delivery date and I am leasing (from Fleet Sauce)

18 aero, no, no

I'm leasing and got the delivery email direct to me (my lease company was very upset!)

Yeah, VIN in source - I had one, which disappeared, and this one appeared a week ago

Holy balls I got one too, finally the complete absence of contact has been broken! Delivery 24th - 31st August! They also provided me with a valuation for my current car that I didn't ask for and is £3,000 below market value, but let's leave that to one side!

The last contact I had from Tesla directly was the "£3,500 confusion" text message, nothing at all since then. But then, my lease company say they haven't had anything either, except confirmation on the phone that I had a VIN and could expect August delivery (before Tesla then cruelly took my...

I know FleetSauce fell out of fashion after their initial deals disappeared, but for what it's worth - they've told me that 1) they can't quote yet because Tesla are still yet to update the CAP (probably why Pink/Drive Electric still have the wrong prices) and 2) they'd expect prices to increase...

I haven't even had that one, I think some of this comms must be going straight to my lease company and they're just not telling me!

I had a VIN and it was cruelly taken away a couple of weeks ago in the big reallocation. Didn't have one this morning, but I do now! From the July 3rd batch, 440XXX. No text, no email, no final invoice. So, presumably, on the next ship...

Make a solution of ONR 40ml to 10L water, spray surface with it, wet a mitt with it then wash car with it. Dry with a microfibre towel, repeat if necessary. I double bucket and rinse the mitt but apparently that's not necessary... No pre wash necessary unless the car is super dirty, in which...

I kept seeing people in the US recommending Optimum No Rinse, so bought some and it is properly superb. As is the Optimum spray wax. So quick, and such good results.

I can see a great chunk of Triumph Ace suddenly immediately becoming inventory on landing, and I for one am thrilled!

No road tax savings on SR+ because the delivery fee is counted when working out the value for VED.

I called Fleetsauce today - basically, they weren't told about the price reduction, the central place where the prices are for all brokers isn't updated yet, so there's no point in asking for anything for a few days until it all trickles through.

Yeah, I did that. It doesn't work, and never had for me.

That's never worked for me, it just links me back to my account (I don't have a VIN allocated)

I haven't had an edit design button for ages, are you at the "we're drafting up your contract" stage?

£1,560 price reduction on the SR+ (was £38,050, now £36,490 without delivery fee, with the grant) You were locked into a finance agreement with a invoice price that is no longer valid - if you get a new invoice, they surely have to honour the new price, given that they will get the discount...

The finance/lease companies are going to love this. Already unable to confirm delivery dates, now the prices have changed...bombardment ahead, I suspect!

Astonishing given the lack of deliveries and complete lack of delivery dates for the Triumph Ace. Who at this point, with an outstanding order, isn't going to ask for the cheaper price?!

I can't believe they've dropped all the Model 3 prices having barely made any deliveries on the backlog. £1,560 cheaper for an SR+ and £960 less tax over the life of a 4 year PCP... With no delivery date confirmed and no VIN, this is cancellation and re-order territory.

My VIN is gone too, this is an outrage.

I would stake my house* on a high proportion of the Model 3 orders being in the South East, putting most of the pressure on Heathrow and Dartford. *I live in a flat and an old lady owns it, so...

Mine was allocated 10 days ago, and this hasn't happened for me yet.

Eh, I wasn't allocated the VIN until July - if I had been waiting since May, I'd probably be upset about it!
