If you read why I said carefully, I said 360 view with respect to parking sensors, not cameras.

I can only speak for the Model 3 since I don't have a Model Y, but they will share the same principle. You can set it so that when you select reverse, it will show you the rear camera and side cameras in addition to a birdseye view of the car with respect to parking sensors. It's more than...

My apologies for my immensely delayed response. I ended up reporting the issue in the service section of the app under "other". They got back to me a few hours after I sent the service request, apologising that the car was delivered in a damaged state and that they will fix it. They mentioned...

I picked up my MSM M3 RWD last Saturday from Glasgow and the collection process was very smooth. My wife and I checked over the car and all was great. We were and still are over the moon, however, we have had a couple of issues with the car. The first one is one that we only just noticed...

That's really sad news. Ask them to send you a photo of the damage.

Fair enough, I raised Autopilot simply to make the point that the car can control the steering wheel and since the item in question is the Steering Wheel Control Unit, logic says that if the car can control the steering wheel then it has a steering wheel control unit. However, to JOL1's point...

Just curious, but taking the name of the item at face value, vehicles produced after November 25th surely have a Steering Wheel Control Unit, else how is it that autopilot works? Mine seems to be controlling the steering wheel just fine for me on that front. So, either I'm missing something, or...

I just paid £1 off my Tesla as a test before paying any more significant... how long did it take for any payment to show? To be fair, I only paid it in 15 minutes ago, but was hoping it would show up quickly.

Although it might sound like a logical argument, it turns out that comparing your Tesla to another car or device isn’t going to provide a fair comparison. The problem here is that the performance of benchmarks like this comes down to support for hardware acceleration - clearly the Tesla browser...

I got my number plate text a couple of hours ago, that's 19 days before collection, or 18 days 21 hours to be precise! :) Also, the Money Saving Expert says that 23 days before collection is the optimal time to get a quote and that might be true on average, but it wasn't with Direct Line. I did...

When I ordered mine, I called them to put mine on hold because I wanted a March delivery instead of the estimated February delivery. They said that if I want it in March then they'll put it on hold until January 10th, at which point I should get included in the next round of matching and should...

Any news? She could have accidentally pressed the wrong button and terminated the chat, either way she should have had enough time now, so if she's not got back to you, create another chat window. :)

I’ll be honest, I tried as hard as I could to be patient and wait until Wednesday morning to contact Tesla, but at 7:45pm tonight, I saw the chat icon appear and couldn’t restrain myself. I ended up creating a chat session and asked how long it would be before I get my final invoice because I...

I'll keep that in mind when I collect mine and will see if they'll give me the key cards without signing the acceptance first. I got my collection date and time tonight (12th March), things are feeling real now and the excitement is really starting to build!

It would be hilarious if DHL was delivering the car! 😁😂

Don't worry about what the configurer page says, you should still definitely be in the March batch based on the date you ordered.

It's soooooooo haaaaaaaarrrrrrdddd! 🤪 Ok, I'm going to try to hold out until Wednesday morning.... unless the chat icon appears on the tesla configurer page that I keep refreshing every 30 seconds... that doesn't count right? 😁😆😅😂🤣

I've been trying to resist the chat, instead I've been resorting to checking my emails every 5 minutes for an update... it's getting pretty painful... perhaps I'll give in lol.

Has anyone tried InsureMyTesla for an insurance quote? I've not checked for any insurance quotes yet, because I don't have a delivery date set.

I’d also like to know the answer to this.

That's excellent news! Your car looks epic in the photo that you took! :)

Mrklaw, I'm loving your updates, or at least I'm feeling the suspense building just reading them and am eagerly awaiting the next one! :)

With respect to selling your car, there is no need to panic. I wouldn't sell it until you know your precise delivery date. A lot of places (like Motorway.com, WeBuyAnyCar,com, etc.) have options to pay the money into your account on the same day or the next day; others take a little longer (e.g...

I spoke to a TA last night about my order just to check that I'll be able to get my final invoice in time for me to submit it to my loan company in order for them to process it (up to 10 working days) and get the money into my account (a further 3-5 working days) before the delivery date - and...

This is a question for those of you that have either got your cars, or for those that have at least received their final invoice and delivery date. I'm just wondering, how long was between getting your final invoice and your actual agreed delivery date? My motive for asking this is that for my...

Thanks everyone for your responses, much appreciated. I hadn't really considered the hood, but you make a good point. I was thinking of getting one of those ceramic sprays (not quite the same or nearly as good as a ceramic coating, but better than nothing), I'm not sure if that will really help...

I'm wondering about peoples thoughts on areas that are worth getting PPF'd. My thoughts so far are: Around the Door Handles My wife has managed to create a lot of light scratches around the door handles of our current car, I believe the culprits are her engagement and eternity rings catching on...

I must admit, I'm a bit OCD when it comes to symmetry and the thought of only having one reverse light and one fog lamp doesn't sit well with me. I know that both lights are lights that I'm not going to see when I'm driving, so I shouldn't care, but it just gives me a weird feeling - like I...

Nice, just out of curiosity, what was the state of charge when you picked it up?

I’ll be picking mine up from Glasgow hopefully in a few weeks - I’m starting to feel like a kid at Christmas! 🙂 Hope it all goes well for you. I’ve been looking at delivery check guides and think this one is probably the best that I’ve found. The only thing that think he could have added was to...

I'm another one that got two texts 30 minutes apart... I wonder if we are all getting "buy one get one free" because they're getting fed up adding unmatched cars to the inventory? 😁

Just wondering, how do people know the ship name that the cars are coming in on?

yessuz and anyone else getting their new Model 3's this week, congratulations and hope it all goes well! :) Please let us know how the pick-up/delivery goes and which of the new features you get. :)

I ordered my RWD MSM/18" aero's on the 2nd Nov but had it put on hold until the 10th Jan because I wasn't in a rush and wanted a March plate. I just got assigned a VIN (LRW3F7FS4NC5*****) and estimated delivery of 3rd - 17th March. Just to reiterate, when I spoke to Tesla on the 27th January...

Im not saying that it won’t arrive in March, but it’s worth giving them a call to confirm that you’ll likely have a March delivery. The reason that I say that is because the lead time for White paint with the 18” aero wheels is longer than for other colours. If your car is delayed, then the...

Should be a 22 plate :)

I'm 100% agreed and absolutely on board with a quiet fuss-free overtaking experience!

Yeah you are probably right; the fact of the matter is it will react a lot faster and will hit harder in that respect, I'm just wondering if the peak acceleration will be similar in the 40-70 region. That's a good point, I just assumed it would be slower across the board, but perhaps the loss...

Nope, I did the same thing. :)👍 EDIT: As in I called up Tesla and asked them to put me down for a March delivery, which resulted in them putting my order on hold until the 10th of January. My estimated delivery date still says February though, but when I called Tesla up they told me that...

So in 2014, I bought a new F21 M135i automatic with adaptive dampers and a bunch of other options. I absolutely loved that car, except that the dampers would make a knocking noise going over speed bumps and the odd bad road. I took it to the BMW service centre and they said "it's a feature of...

Just ordered one too, thanks for pointing this out.

It's probably on a stealth craft arriving a couple of days earlier than the Grand California! 😁 Have you got an email from Tesla with an RN number? If so, when did you receive it? Also if you ordered White RWD with 18" Aero wheels then there is a delay on that combination. Assuming your order...

Mine is showing up as an estimated date of February when I asked for March lol. I'm sure it will be easily fixed with a phone call though... or at least I hope it will. I'll call them as soon as I'm out of a bunch of meetings.

Ahh, that makes sense.

£11k? That's a lot more than the delta between the RWD and LR! 😮

So I just got off the phone with Tesla and was told that my M3RWD (MSM, aero, black interior) is still penned for an estimated March delivery. If you are interested in whether or not you'll get the upgrades, or how to shorten the delivery time for your White Model 3, please read on... I asked...

I ordered the same day as you (RWD, MSM, aero, black interior), only I had mine put on hold until the beginning of January. I really hope they made a mistake on the date! I can't afford to wait that long - actually, I'll contact them and report back.

I ordered a Model 3 RWD (MSM, aeros, black interior) on the 2nd November but had the order put on hold until the 10th January because I wanted a March delivery for the new plates - I was told that would not put me to the back of the queue (as if I'd ordered on the 10th January), but it would...

Sorry that should have been: Model 3: RWD/LR/P Delivery Date: VIN (first three of last six digits): Ryzen: Yes/No Rear double pane windows: Yes/No Heated wiper park hardware: Yes/No New Lithium-Ion battery: Yes/No/Don't Know

Good point, alright then, how about this :) Model 3: RWD/LR/P Delivery Date: VIN (last 6 digits): Ryzen: Yes/No Rear double pane windows: Yes/No Heated wiper park hardware: Yes/No New Lithium-Ion battery: Yes/No/Don't Know
