Lol! I think you may be right, now I think about it the Y could actually be a Pregnant 3😳

Hey chewy, using your example (subjectively of course😉) then actually the 3 is the graceful grown up swan and the Y is the very slightly chubby (but not ugly)duckling😀. Seriously whilst I prefer the 3s look I do like both and would have one of each in our household if I could afford it!

Little extra nugget of positivity from a Q122 owner for those lucky individuals collecting this month. The Tesla air con is awesome (if a little noisy)and can be left on overnight in camp mode. I may actually end up sleeping in the model 3 tonight on the drive😂. And yes I am one of those sad...

Congrats to those who’ve received great news, happy VINday! So excited to read these updates, gives me chills. If you’re still waiting then please hang in there, these Teslas are simply awesome, I honestly don’t believe there’s anything better out there. I’ve had mine 7 weeks and already done...

Ok so it can happen, my existing order including Tesla finance was moved across to an inventory car I contacted Tesla about in March. I’ll share a few considerations below from my personal experience to do whatever you want with. If you see a car in inventory that is an exact match or...

Oh wow, I cannot even imagine what the black box will record with the acceleration available on your Tesla. If you haven’t already, have a look at Direct Line and Admiral they seem to be EV competitive in most cases (obviously can’t comment on specific postcodes). Honestly I’m not a lead foot...

Of course! Whenever you hear a Tesla reversing it all makes sense😂

Looking good! I changed my plate (because of the infamous BJ22) but wasn’t brave enough to dispense with the Tesla frame, now I’ve seen yours I may give it a go.

Oh go on then, one more for old times sake. I’ve got to be careful not to be arrested for indecent exposure though, this is hardcore Tesla porn😂

I think on a quiet news day re EDD's my post delivery paint correction journey created a little distraction to fill a void. I'll continue to follow everyones progress and I know you're going to have a bloody awesome time in your new Teslas (impossible not to). Going back to lurk mode for...

I think you are right, in that my experience doesn’t seem consistent with some other buyers. I fear I have overstated the rejection part of this though. At no point did I actually say anything about rejection (it was just known by all parties that it was an option because I’d reported the...

I didn’t see it happen but I know they were talking about machine polishing, removing contaminants and repairing a small chip. Personally I think some kind of Harry Potter magic went on. It was an external 3rd party detailer that did the job I understand. Apologies if that sounds vague but...

It was clearly not the work of some underpaid overworked unfortunate soul being pressured to crank out fixes. There was a lot of professional pride and a fair bit of love that went into that transformation. All I can say is that I highly recommend Nottingham Service Centre, lovely bunch.

Sorry the “before”pics didn’t upload , here you go.

Ikr. Well BJ is on the way out and I’ll very shortly be able to introduce you to TE22 UFO - yes I went there!

Flippin hell they’ve turned the car into a mirror (sorry about the ugly mug taking the pic)! All my fear and trepidation was unnecessary. Stunning

Yep just the app and be sure to do it in the rejection window.

I just booked a service issue in the app within the first 100 miles after collection to ensure it’s a “fix new car or I’ll reject”problem rather than an a perceived “existing owner” deprioritised whinge. I do think I benefited from being the last car on the last day of the day of the quarter in...

Well I’m not a fan of the plates tbh 😂. I already have replacement plates just waiting for DVLA transfer.

Just picked up car from Tesla service centre after paint correction for swirls. She looks amazing I’m stunned by the difference. Tesla guy told me they don’t do it themselves, there is a specialist detailer who comes in to do these jobs. I’ll try and take some pics in decent light, these...

Ive left it with Nottingham Service centre, the team were really helpful and seem genuinely interested in sorting it for me, saying I should expect a new vehicle not to have these issues (even if minor). Had a nice little chat and they mentioned that they need to bring Birmingham NEC collection...

So my M3LR arrived complete with swirls 2 weeks ago and tomorrow she goes into Tesla Service for some paint correction. I'm honestly a little fearful of what will happen (and 2nd guessing myself on whether its actually worth doing, is it only me that notices the micro scratches?). For our long...

Ooh sounds nice, there’s something about the contrast (either way around) that is appealing. My neighbour got your config (white/black) same week as I got mine so we’ve got some yin and yang action going on😂. Hope to see your pics as soon poss🤞

Well finally had a chance to give her a proper clean. Comes up nice but I suspect the black will need regular cleaning. I think my driving style has changed, not necessarily faster overall (and not top speed) but the instantaneous torque means you can “squirt” for a second or 2 to find a...

Had a better look today even though the weather is still trolling me. The dreaded swirls are present unfortunately so have booked in service. She’s still a beaut though. Few pics in poor conditions and last night sorry not the best

Picked up the M3 LR Black paint/White interior today from NEC, bit of an issue with the reg being different so had to sort out insurance change. Drove home in snow (of all the days for it to snow!). Quick stop at Rugby services on the way pop the supercharge cherry (only had 103 miles charge...

Thanks for that update, its great to hear about your positive experience and you're clearly loving the car. Given your feedback about the NEC today I'm starting to think I'll have the place to myself tomorrow (4:30pm collection on the last day of the quarter). Might even go mega early and try...

I called, initially was given standardised response but when I explained circumstance (ie location differs to what I was told) the chap “properly” checked and confirmed vehicle had arrived at NEC @ 10:30am yesterday.

Wow! Looks great. Mines the same colour (picking up tomorrow), if I can get it to look anything like this I'll be chuffed to bits.

I confirmed my car is definitely at the NEC after some inital confusion due to a late match. Picking it up tomorrow, it seems from recent updates in this forum that its 50/50 on the rear lights version but thats not a biggie for me, I'm just hoping for undamaged paint and no panel gaps 🤞 I'm...

Oh nice, are you PPFing the high risk areas or the whole car (and are you going gloss/satin)? Let us know how it goes and post some pics after if poss. I'm a bit conflicted about the cost of it at the moment but will probably get it done in the end.

Sorry to hear that, absolute downer. Hope it can be resolved swiftly for you. it is exactly my fear as well. I’ve matched to an inventory car at an alternate location on the basis I have to go there to collect. Now my app has updated collection point for the revised car to my original...

Yes they honoured the Feb price. Its the inconsitency that is frustrating, I can't fault the guys I was dealing with but it seems that is not always the case. I'd have another go if I were you, same circumstance different outcome is entirely possible.

Following the stress of the matching process yesterday I got hold of my Reg today for insurance purposes (YK22 club for anyone interested). Admiral/Direct Line seem sensible/ish (a couple of specialist brokers actually said I'm wasting my time trying to get equivilent through them). Went with...

Yeah I had a couple of cracks at this. My conversation with Jack in webchat this week started with "you will need to cancel your existing order and buy the other car from the inventory". I asked him to transfer my order from the existing May/June to the available inventory car because there...

I couldn't handle all the uncertainty, so I kept the spec (LR AWD B/W interior Aero wheels) and just changed colour, went from MSM to Black and got an inventory match. Tesla were great, honoured my pre rise order price with the only condition that I have to collect before Friday (I guess...

So as of today I'm out of the May 9 - 23rd club and into the May 21 - June 18 zone. Anyone else seen that change?

Wow the universe came back to you pretty quickly on that one, very nice! I'm still in the May 09-23 arrival lounge.

Not sure if I'm strong enough to cope with the spectre of posing of the radar/no radar transition question? I've no idea if its a good/bad thing, will functionality be turned off in future so waste of time, if its still there and stays active will it add/detract value? I saw a Q2 change for EU...

It seems we're into a new era of matching, demand isn't diminishing with multiple price rises. Although on the upside we could be in the unusual position of collecting new cars that will be worth more than we paid:)

Interesting that my delivery date elastic band has now snapped back to May09-May 23 (from June-July). I thought most are back-ended into final weeks of each quarter🤔? I suspect these dates will change again.

Hey, I've been lurking for a while, ordered a M3LR in Feb. Delivery date was May 7 - Jun 04 and today has moved out to Jun 04 - Jul 02. Anyone else get that update?
