Yes, nothing to worry about. there were over 100 cars at BC on Friday and most likely most cars are there already IMO.

Got my M3P on Friday from Brent Cross, no major issues to report honestly, there were a couple of scuff marks on top which I think were from some sort of protection tape used to protect the glass. panels gaps etc looked all fine. All in all very happy and having driven around 60 (car had only 6...

how did you check wheel alignment?

around 6k on average I think. Noticed Grand Ruby is actually now in Tees, not sure what it's doing there, was it not supposed to go to Zeebrugge?

I had the same call yesterday evening, offered free pick up to Brent Cross on Friday which I gladly said yes to, afaik no catches, they collect you in M3 as well and can show you 'how to' while on the way apparently, but given the number of videos I have watched I probably know more than the...

At least sounds consistent with what I was told, could be GLOVIS SPLENDOR arriving on 21st and they keep a day or 2 buffer as they are already pushing it tight!

Thanks for the offer but I think I am fairly sure the car would be there on 24th, as they called for making sure the payment is made by tomorrow.

Just got a call from Tesla about delivery next Friday (I am collecting M3P from Brent Cross), in passing I asked if the car is here yet and she said no its still on the ship and only arrives on 23rd and problem we have is we have no place to park the cars on port side, they need to cleared only...

The normal 3 pin is 16 A (I think they limit it to 10 Amp for charging) vs commando at 32 A , so you should expect 1/3 of commando socket.

Mine has earlier , 18th Sept vs 24th Sept booked. I was told car wouldnt be avilable before 23rd so first avaible date is 24th but now invoice has 18th !

Also depends on what you are buying, M3P has panasonic battery from what I know and thats not changing anytime soon.

As someone else pointed out Triton Ace apparently can be tracked via : https://www.molace.com/TRK/Search

sounds like you might be on a ship :D

Should be on the way, seems VIN order has nothing to do with when exactly you get it, obviously, they must be manufactured in the VIN order.

I got mine as well 10 mins ago, M3P, Vin is 333X, Collection on 25th Sept from London Brent Cross.

Sorry was away for few day but check this .... Model 3 / Model Y - Batterieübersicht [Wiki / W.I.P.]

Just got the collection text and now collecting on 25th Sept from Brent cross, M3P , Vin is 333xxxx.

Different variants seem to have differnet batteries, performance seems to have Panasonic one , LR the LG one and SR+ has the CATL ones.

I am in the same boat literally, told ship has sailed but can only arrange collection when its nearer and have a better eta. maybe they wait till it passes suez, I assume the reason also they dont give the ships name is probably same, a Tesla ship is probably the most valuable car carrier right...

Where did you see that I think we were having issues finding its schedule to Europe, you can get the schedule for journey 092 which is the return back but 091 was missing afaik.

Looks like the Ship DIONYSOS LEADER which we were following couple weeks ago is now heading back to Seuz from India, so might still be carrying Teslas!

Mine in M3P , Vin is 333*

Mine came from 01799**291 , but VIN or Delivery Date doesnt work for me.

Agree, but they should have real time data flowing to the factory showing variant by variant demand, which assume is what they use to schedule what is getting produced, maybe that's where the issue is, that process is still a manual batch process based on guestimates from last quarter, etc and...

Honestly I dont undertand how this cant be automated, unlike a porsche or an audi which have infinite choices, for example, a M3P literally has 10 variants (5 colours x 2 interiors , Long range has 20 variants and similar for SR ) , rest of the choices are software anyhow, you assign a Q to...

Dont think any ships leaving now would actually have the cars delivered to customers before sept end, so your car is liekly to be on a ship already if they are saying mid-sept. I have been told the same and they cant tell me collection date till the ship is closer.

I think that map is out of date slighly, the elektra is past the tip near banda aceh and sailing now at over 19 knots but again probably only 1.5 days ahead of Ruby.

I am in same boat as you have been told to wait a couple of days. was told car has been shipped which is why I find it strange some folks have been told their car hasnt been shipped but they are able to arrange collection already.

I called them earlier and they told me to hang in for 2-3 days as they have lot of cars for collection and they are going thorough collection dates over next 48 hours. they must be delivering over 5k cars in September!

UECC only would work if they are actually carrying your car !

haha, I am in the same boat and feel the same! this whole thing feels like a lottery, well done to all the winners😃 !

me rebooting my phone right now!

Hopefully , anyone got delivery text for London Brent Cross or London generally today ?

I am buying cash but havent heard anything from SA anyhow , they are fairly useless , online chat seems to be the way anyhow.

congrats, hopefully mine 333x isnt too far away!

Dont think yours would be on Ruby which is scheduled to be in on 14th as it takes them atleast a week after to get it to dealership afaik.

I think the lcoation hasnt updated for couple of days so its closer than what map is showing for sure.

Great, whats your VIN and date you ordered as I have M3P on the way as well which I think is on Grand Ruby .

Great, I am M3P as well, VIN is 333* but I had VIn already but sounds like I am on Grand Ruby as well as that matches mid September date of arrival of the car in UK.

Elektra seems to be operated by Wallenius Wilhelmsen, so you might be able to track the VIN to ship via by searching here Track and trace - Cargo tracking - Wallenius Wilhelmsen

Thanks again for the summary ! is it possible they can now segregate RHD and LHD ships completely given the volumes, would make life easier for everyone.

Assume they dont show up against the white cars! none of them are performance as have no spoiler, so cant be my car plus they all look LHD anyhow.

As usual super comprehensive! Out of interest how much do they charge for transporting per car? I know they can take on around 6000 cars give or take, must be around $1000 per car, I assume it varies with charter rates etc ?

I think that's right for a custom order, but for cars appearing in inventory they appear as though these are in-stock cars at least to people who don't know (including myself at the time) the tesla system, they even show Location on some of them as if they are already there. It's a bit...

Its interesting, as I got my Vin before on 6th August (I ordered from inventory as well), but I could see inventory models which appeared around 10th which had VIN in 322* range, same spec as mine, so not sure how it works anyhow, as it doesn't always seem sequential.

Great! my M3P vin is 333* which I knew already as was inventory order, so looks like we are looking at Grand Ruby and ours cars are likely on same ship !

Based on below I think SFL conductor is VW ship and not a Tesla ship as SFL leased all their fleet to them. https://www.fool.com/earnings/call-transcripts/2021/05/13/ship-finance-international-sfl-q1-2021-earnings-ca/

Thats good to know as that ship is loading as we speak, I think my car might be on it for a 3rd week September delivery !

haha, thanks to Tesla for making this happen! the tracking might be more enjoyable than when eventually I do get the car!

Scrap that theory , looks like its actually loading 350 vehicles from India, so would be interesting whats the next port of call is, as most indian car exports actually goto ME and Africa from what I know.
