    Your best bet is to keep an eye on Arrivals - Dublin Port - a bit blank at the moment, probably means they're updating something. You're looking for RORO Vehicle Carriers.

    I'd be really surprised if they had gone back to this model even for just one shipment, as the potential headaches around Brexit, VAT, VRT and import tax would be massive! But also, when needs must... I wonder what is on the BANGKOK...

    [UK] 2023.2.x

    I have also had this since some time last summer! The time seems to start as soon as you unlock the car, so if you hop right in then it takes a couple of minutes to "wake up" but if you have to load in bags, children etc then it's usually fine by the time you actually shift into D....

    I'm far from an authority on these things, but should the RCD not be at the outside socket point, rather than the mobile connector end?

    From the owner's manual on the Tesla website, it is: Height: 7.1 in (179.8 mm) Width: 3.2 in (81.7 mm) Depth: 1.9 in (47.3 mm) The plug to connector cable is very short, certainly less than 12 inches. I'm sure you don't need me to say that it is not recommended to plug the mobile connector...

    It's not particularly unusual from what "traditional" dealers do... it's just that the Tesla model is a little more transparent and suffers from end of quarter spikes due to the limited production capabilities. Your explanations are appreciated @JOL1 !

    It does state in your Order Agreement that the car has to be collected by the end of the Financial Quarter in which it is offered to you... and for Tesla that's at close of business(*) today. * - Technically as a California-headquartered company, that's at 8am tomorrow morning our time, but I...

    In an odd way, a Dutch SIM is a good thing because it is permanently roaming - which means in theory, (for example) if it's on EE and loses signal it should switch to Vodafone, assuming that KPN have a roaming agreement with both. The loss of (UK-only or Ireland-only) geoblocked content is a...

    Malacca Highway still sits at anchor in Dublin Bay… the arrivals boards in Dublin Port now shows 2358 on Tuesday… it is making me a little nervous to be honest!

    So... with the RCC CLASSIC, GLOVIS SYMPHONY and MORNING CARINA all due to arrive in Zeebrugge before Monday, what ships should we be looking out for to see cars coming from Zeebrugge to Dublin? There are a few of us with pickups from 24th to 26th here as far as I can tell... ...Or do you think...

    I'm also picking up on that date. According to your Order Agreement you have to have fully paid before delivery: I haven't "officially" received my VIN or registration, but if you scroll up the UK 2022 Order to Delivery thread, you'll see how to figure out your VIN from the source code of your...

    I ordered 16 Feb expecting August delivery, got an SMS with an allocation 23 Feb, and VIN in source code following week. I was also told "mid-March", just got off the phone with them and they said the car is still in transit on the water, but should now expect a delivery date of 26-31 March and...

    Wow - that's awesome. I might chance my arm again tomorrow then. I presume you called 01 513 4727 option 4? I managed to get Craig on chat at the weekend and he couldn't give me anything, just "please be patient". FWIW I'm awaiting M3RWD/MSM/Black/Aeros and have had a VIN in source code for a...

    It's right there on the website that they are included - go to the configuration page, scroll down to Interior and click Features, and scroll the images all the way to the right - "Interior Floor Mats" is a bullet point under Comfort.
