Ok thanks

Hello! I need new tyres, my M3 SR has the Michelin PS4 T01 tyres fitted. I ordered replacements through Costco only to have the order cancelled due to lack of stock. I called my local tyre supplier who informed me they’re out of stock with all their suppliers and apparently this is common. I...

Yeah thanks dude, detailer did say to keep an eye on it, too.

Just picked up my M3 from the detailers’ - very please with the result. Paint correction + ceramic coating inside and out inc. wheels. Looks epic, Uber shiny and sooooo smooth to touch. Should stop stains from building up on the white seats hopefully. Oh, and how much better do they look without...

I've now had the car for a whole 6 days and driven a total of 230 miles and I have to say that I'm really disappointed with TACC & Autosteer - they BOTH suck! I was looking forward to my new 'mobile laptop', full of computing power that should be super smart in helping me sail down the motorway...

CSA said 120 cars went out of TP today - 70 were gone by the time I got there at about 1:45PM - so still 50 left to collect.

Picked up the M3 RWD today at Thorpe Park. Was busting for a leek when we arrived, weird toilets in the back of the collection admin tent, surrounded by the staff all having their lunch which was all a bit strange. Anywho… ‘Paperwork’ took seconds, literally signed an iPad and the CSA told me...

Have you had someone stand behind and check? Sometimes LED lights flicker or don’t show up on camera - don’t want to look like a t1t when the tech comes 😂

I might call mine ‘Uniporn’ because it’s such a S3XY Unicorn 🦄 😂

No one taken delivery today? Seems quiet here…

Understandable, there have been lots of reports of cars being washed with muddy water, they must be using milky water at Bluewater 🤣

@Oxstock Car looks great!! Looked at your pics and remembered you saying this (see attachment)... did make me LOL! Enjoy the car dude, looks epic!

Good luck!!

haha, I know the feeling! Booked in for 2PM, so Saturday morning is going to draaaaaagggg! What about you?

I'm also collecting from TP on Saturday, can't wait!

Speak with them, mine worked instantly. Edit: Sorry - didn't see you'd already sorted it.

Sure, gov. grant ends in March tho, just something to consider

I agree with the general consensus here. My alternative to the M3 was an AMG A45 as a last hurrah to ICE powered cars... until they told me it would likely take a year to arrive and would be missing tech. The M3 with a couple of month wait and now possibly missing USBs (that will be fitted...

I haven't collected my car yet, but I believe they just clip in/out of the holders if you get Tesla made plates (which are thin metal). Normal (thicker plastic) ones won't fit in the holders so I'm told. An existing owner may be able to clarify.

You might be pleasantly surprised regarding the home charger. I had mine installed last week and they didn't touch the fuse board, they put a new mini consumer unit actually inside my meter cupboard and it runs directly from that, so they didn't touch any existing wiring or fuse boards. :cool:

And just to forewarn you, they wouldn't even make up plates for me. Perhaps you'll have more luck!

I went from a 2015 RS3 (which remains the best value for money car I’ve ever owned, it was epic!) to a 2017 C63 Coupe which knocked spots off the RS3 interior, the C63 had a leather bound dash, doors, and lovely supple plastics. I then looked at a 2019 SQ5 (I don’t keep cars more than 2 years)...

New car looks great! Congratulations! Ps: have you experience the build quality / materials in new Audi’s? It’s awful! VW group on major cost cutting to recoup losses from the emissions scandal. Was going to upgrade the Mrs’ Q3 to the new model, but it’s so cheap inside, and yet 25% increase...

Were there holes left in the bumper from the original plate? These vinyl plates look so much better!

Fully recommend EVC Electrical for London & Surrounding areas. Done a great job on my Hypervolt installation today. Comms we’re fast, as was installation. Received invoice this evening, could pay using bacs/credit/debit or Apple Pay, also got the NIC install certs. They have 57 5* reviews on Google.

Had my Hypervolt installed today by EVC Electrical Installation LTD. Absolutely faultless service from start to finish. They were the fastest (and only) company to reply to my enquiry, did a fab, clean job and have 100% 5* reviews on Google. Fully recommend for London & surrounding areas (I’m in...

I asked them if they would do this for me and was told “we do not make plates at the delivery centres so cannot accommodate this request”. I don’t know why they don’t support registering into cherished from new, every other new car I’ve had the dealership registered the car straight onto my...

Yeah I have all that jazz (vin & reg) and collection for 11th. Just curious which boat it is coming off of. Really not the end of the world, I’ll live without knowing. Keep up the great work Mr Miserable.

Thanks for clarifying - not sure where I got that from then! Was hoping to use that to work out which ship it's about to come off of. It will remain a mystery! :cool:

Guys, am I right in saying that you receive a text when your car is unloaded and 'checked-in' to the UK? Something along the lines of "Your Model 3 is almost here...."?

I can't decide! To begin with I was adamant the aero's were coming off, then I saw a Red car with them off and thought it made the wheels look tiny. Then this looks nice in black with them off. I need to wait and see for myself I think. Its a tough call! I think what I've learnt is that I...

I also got the "your model 3 is available earlier than expected" only to look and see the available dates are no earlier than what I already have :( Called CS... was hung up on 5 times and got through on the 6th attempt (persistence is key) and got it brought forward by 3 days, better than...

Maybe I’m just clumsy.

Do you have the plastic screen or Safire? I rarely wear mine as I have the plastic screen and scratch it every time I wear it, it then takes me ages to polish out, very annoying!

Mine is great around town and the lanes, we're spoilt now with modern cars being so quiet and comfy on the motorway, the difference is so apparent that it means the mini is borderline unbearable on a long run! Yes - plenty you can do to an old A Series, engines are becoming rarer and more...

My 1984 Classic Mini - I'll never sell it 😍

Hi All, My parents are considering a Model Y but there aren't any financing options listed on the configurator - does this mean that Tesla Loan isn't available for this vehicle?

It would appear there are a few of us that have been really lucky! I ordered literally last week and tonight got the text to arrange collection! Collecting 14th December! Wasn't expecting it till February!

Today I received a text saying "Tesla Update - Your vehicle arrival date is being calculated. You will be notified when your vehicle is ready to be scheduled for delivery, in the meantime..." I don't know the process, is that the precursor to imminent delivery? Those in the know can advise...

Wow, wasn't expecting that! Better get a wiggle on a sell the Mini then!!

RWD (SR+), White/White I'm not trading in, have had a cheap Mini I've been using for a run around for the last couple of years that I was going to sell privately. Like... imminently?

Hi All, I ordered literally 6 days ago (11th) with estimated delivery of February 2022. I’ve just seen the “source code” trick to see if there is a VIN on another post and my order has a VIN number?! Does this mean it could arrive before February?

This is a really interesting thread. Am I right in assuming that Tesla only ship towards the end of each quarter? So if you don’t get assigned a vehicle as they come in now then you’ll be waiting until March for the 2022 Q1 shipments?

Understood - thanks!

what’s the deal with energy supplier referrals then? Can’t imagine anyone is switching at the moment?!

So I placed my order on Thursday night, M3 RWD with white interior, dead excited. I have another Q I’m wondering you can if you guys can answer? I have a private plate, do they allow you to put private plates on cars that are on PCP? Thanks!

Boo. Thanks for clarifying.

Moderation comment - thread merged to avoid multiple new order questions threads Hello everyone, So I’m about to take the plunge and order a Model 3 (standard)! Before I do, I was going to use a referral code to get the SC miles, however having clicked on a few (random) of your codes it’s...
