    I have for sale a few accessories that were used for less than 2 months, everything is mint and probably as close to brand new as you'll get. 1TB Sandisk Extreme NVMe SSD Cup holder Console storage trays I'll also throw in a small USB hub that works perfectly for the glovebox The below would...

    Q3 collections, new owners tales and experiences

    My main issue with voice control is that it will not allow me to call my boss, it simply can't understand a very common name and constantly here's 2 or 3 other similar names. I've tried a couple of other things but it's very 50/50 as to whether it works.

    Q3 collections, new owners tales and experiences

    After 6 weeks and 4.5K miles I thought I'd give a bit of feedback now. There's no doubt that Tesla's are extremely impressive when it comes to performance, they're extremely efficient, really nippy, the Y handles so well considering the size, and the supercharging network is in a league of...

    What the hell has happened to Autopilot?

    I'm pretty sure Tesla have never used LiDAR?

    Not ideal obviously but it could have been so much worse. At least you'll have it for the weekend.

    Q3 collections, new owners tales and experiences

    I'd cry! From what a couple of others have said, Tesla didn't take long to call them back and say they had them another car. I've got my fingers and toes crossed for you, hopefully it's a minor issue that they can fix soon or they find you a cancellation straight away. I'm also guessing you've...

    Help needed! New car not assigned yet?

    I'd have expected the app to work within the hour at the most if you've ordered direct. I don't have the Tesla charger but not having the app activated won't affect the charging, the Tesla chargers don't work with Tesla's exclusively.

    Your response makes no sense? You asked a question, I answered, but then you're giving me advice that doesn't apply to me, very strange.

    It can take 24hrs for the app to kick in, especially if it's a lease.

    Most don't seem to care but there's no single answer. Personally, I believe we're already paying based on the cars maximum output so it shouldn't matter, there's no way I wouldn't tell the insurance company though.

    I had mine delivered last Thursday, I've done 1000 miles so far and it's been pretty flawless. There were no obvious issues with the car, delivery was just about on time, the car whole process was pretty straight forward really. Today, Alaska has had her first wash and wax, 3 hours to do it...

    I hope it gets sorted because I doubt tesla will delay collection when it's arranged for the 30th. Despite it not being your fault, I wouldn't be surprised if Tesla simply allocate the car to someone else that can get them the money, and collect before the end of the quarter.

    Mine did turn up today thank god, it was just outside the alloted time but only by about 10 minutes. Unfortunately I had to jump in the car and get straight to work so had no time to give it a really good check check, I'll have to do that in the morning. I have put 200 miles on it already though...

    Seems very inconsistent! I've had the 2pm until 6pm but no link for tracking. I've stupidly made plans tomorrow and I've also got work to sort out tonight. If I've got to spend hours in the transporter instead of the Tesla, I'm gonna rage like mad at home, watch the girlfriend try not to laugh...

    I arrived at Southampton docks for work this morning, about 7am and there were car carriers loaded with Tesla's everywhere. As I was leaving this afternoon, I drove past a long line of Model Y's travelling between different locations at the docks, it's crazy seeing what a massive operation it...

    If you consider a Tesla a waste of money should it not "pay for itself" I definitely think you're buying the wrong car!

    Model Y UK Delivery

    I doubt it will come forwards unless Tesla can already confirm you have a VIN? The next ships to the UK will likely depart at the beginning of November so right at the end of November is about the absolute earliest you can expect.

    It won't be registered until the day before you collect and then it can take a few days to show on the database, it needs to be done manually by the insurer.

    I've seen those sorts of figures mentioned too, 385 and 435, they would definitely make more sense to me.

    I'm positive these figures are completely wrong, there's no way a model Y LR is 507bhp. I was under the impression the LR was about 335 without acceleration boost and 385 with, the below looks similar.

    Any VINs today just seem to be the texts from Tesla, not a discovery of new hidden VINs

    These look to be VIN texts, not hidden VINs appearing a few days after the ship leaves.

    I agree, by now we all know there's a higher chance of this happening when ordering a Tesla, even if it is still a very low possibility. I've not even had mine delivered yet and even if it does come full of swirls in the paint, I'd probably still do it again, I just wish it wasn't a choice we...

    Nothing is ever perfect I know, but, it just bothers me a little that we're allowing, and accepting, brand new cars to sometimes arrive in such a poor state. Not only that, we're having to either then go out of our way and travel to a service centre or wait for a ranger to show. I appreciate...

    I wouldn't touch admiral if it was free! Someone brake checked me 18 months ago and despite having dashcam proof, they ruled in the other guys favour. After arguing my case they admitted they only looked at the moment of impact, so they ignored the fact the guy had raced passed me (I had front...

    I thought that was the case, I've already had the email from Tesla telling me to be ready to digitally sign once the driver arrives. I'm fully expecting the driver to offload it and then be gone before I can even get it on the drive, no option to reject if I wanted.... not that I would. I...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    From what I've seen, and read, they turn up on a small flatbead and the driver simply makes you sign and disappears. I don't think they'll have anything to do with showing you around the car and I don't think they hang around and wait for you to check it over either.

    I would if I was buying the car, luckily it's a company car so it'll cost me less than £20 in BIK. I'm also tied in to my electric tariff at 16.8p kW for just over another year so I'm good for now, I also get free charging at work. Where it'll hit me is on the superchargers, but overall, it'll...

    That's not true at all, the GPS part probably won't but like I said, that's not the only way these 3rd party trackers work once you've got an approximate location. You're welcome to think what you like of course, and you're probably correct, I just wouldn't take any chances at all when it comes...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    Absolutely. I'm not bothered either way as long as it gets here in one piece. Others have said that 2 weeks isn't abnormal anyway, it's only the very end of the quarter where they go mad and start dragging staff all over the country to get the cars delivered within days.

    Challenge hadn't set sail when I got my VIN, I had mine the same time companion VINs were appearing.

    Model Y UK Delivery

    Same for me, mines being delivered on the 15th but the rep was adamant the ship gets in on the 14th. My guess would be, they're just telling us what they're told to tell us so they don't have the exact same questions we're asking here.

    I did the same, no problem and all confirmed for home delivery.

    UK 2022 Orders to Delivery inc the shipping thread for posts with no shipping news

    I'm still unsure what to make of that, it clearly can't be tracked anywhere in the UK because all it needs to do is enter a multi story car park or somewhere similar and it will disappear, it could still show the last known location? Someone else would need to confirm. A dedicated tracker isn't...

    I think it can literally just be switched off like any other option. Pin to drive is the best way, it won't stop it going on a flatbed but let's face it, that's unlikely.

    Mines a company car, this all started 2 years ago with our insurance provider and the first model 3s. I had to get them to put it in writing that the Tesla's system was good enough. We've had to do the same this year with Aviva, in writing, and they just stated that it must not be disabled by...

    The cars simply have GPS chips, their primary function isn't for tracking them if they're stolen, same for all manufacturers. They CAN be tracked when stolen but like I said, put a tesla on a flatbed and you'll just see its last location when it was being driven. You'll always see its last...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    From what I've read, if the lease company set it up properly and your account is just a drivers account they have to add additional drivers. There's also some lost features too, nothing major though, I just don't think you get full access to all the driving stats etc.

    UK 2022 Orders to Delivery inc the shipping thread for posts with no shipping news

    Which doesn't make much sense really. If you're parked, why would you need a tracker? If someone steals it, it's no longer parked 🤷 At the end of the day, Tesla's don't actually have a dedicated tracker, you can just use the cars GPS chip via the app, just like you can track your mobile device...

    Be careful with that tracker question, some insurance companies do insist that the car is connected to a system that's monitored at a central location. Tesla's tracker also requires the cars wheels to be moving, if its loaded on a flatbed, it's likely gone for good.
