    I went for it, we love the satellite view and the ability to watch Netflix etc without phone faffage

    Q3 collections, new owners tales and experiences

    I had a (Seat) Cupra Ateca for best part of 3 year prior to the Tesla, never kerbed it once. I'd been really careful so far and thought I was careful in the car park until I heard the grind ... I'm not quite understanding the set up with the tape, is the border you mention perpendicular or...

    Q3 collections, new owners tales and experiences

    Mine went to the detailers this week for a Gtechniq ceramic coat, looks lovely now. Also this happened :D but I had a trip to Stockport to see family yesterday and managed to kerb 2 rims in a car park :eek: why do they make them so narrow and twisty

    Q3 collections, new owners tales and experiences

    My blue beauty went to the service centre on Friday for the weird spots in the paint to get sorted. Was given a Model S loan car which I was quite excited to try but actually didn't really like it. It felt a bit heavy and cumbersome to drive compared to the Y. Had to go back to the SC today...

    Churchill Insurance - Acceleration Boost

    No, they have it as 507 for the LR and 527 for Performance. My V5 states it as Max power 378kW which is 507hp, I think AB just changes how the power is delivered.

    Churchill Insurance - Acceleration Boost

    I had a web chat with Direct Line testing the water about AB last week, I explicitly said it was an optional, paid for software upgrade from Tesla and the response was that if it's a software update from the manufacturer they don't need to be told about it and it will be covered on my standard...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    Mine was at 47% on collection. Went to a supercharger on the wy home to try it out. I'd already bought a couple of things from the Tesla store via the app and my payment cards were already there. I suspect you can add them at any time, and you can choose a default (from the app, click your face...

    UK Charge Point Installer Recommendations

    Seconded. Aaron has just installed my charger, did a nice job and was a really helpful and knowledgeable chap.

    Q3 collections, new owners tales and experiences

    Got carried away and had a web chat with Direct Line earlier asking about Acceleration Boost. I made it clear it was an optional, paid for upgrade and the response was if its a software update from the manufacturer, then they don't need to know and it'll be covered on the standard policy.

    Q3 collections, new owners tales and experiences

    Had a look earlier, mine has the sealing strips on the edge of the boot lid. Not sure how I'd tell if it had the extra air bag, I had a quick look and couldn't see any air bag warnings/logos anywhere. As I understand it, the extra air bag would just be on the drivers seat next to the centre console?

    Model Y UK Delivery

    I guess that would make a lot of sense. The powerful ICE cars I’ve had in the past pull like trains well into 3 digits, the ModelY feels more like a huge gob of power when you accelerate that perhaps tapers off quicker, I’m hoping that if I get AB down the line that will improve too ie...

    Any views on Q3 Model Y suspension setup or differences from Q2 so far?

    Mines a 402 VIN collected last week, so probably pre-upgrade, suspension is fine for me (on 20's), can't say I notice it being any different to the demonstrator I drove in March though (that was on 19s).

    Q3 collections, new owners tales and experiences

    Yes this is pretty much my experience. Being early in the Q3 though they weren't busy and said they'd happily show me stuff if I had questions, but in the main just left us to it. The last bit is you accept delivery in the app and once you've done that you can set up your phone as a key.

    Q3 collections, new owners tales and experiences

    I don't know how I missed this thread, I collected mine exactly a week ago. Sadly a few weird issues in the paint, you have to look quite hard to find them. It's booked in to be looked at by the SC in about 3 weeks time. Blue looks great but is a complete dirt magnet by the way. I don't have...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    I had my V5 come through yesterday. FWIW on the V5 it says "Max. net power (kW) 378". 378kW is approx 507hp. A few years ago I had a car about the same weight, same 0-60 and that had 411bhp. The Model Y feels much, much quicker when accelerating, whether it's just the way the power is...

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

    Yes, I used Motorway for the first time selling my car the week before I collected the Tesla. It was quite painless, and I got about £1600 more than WBAC offered (and they would've knocked me down further). The dealer who won was on the other side of the country and used an agent to collect...

    Octopus Energy, including Intelligent and go

    Think I finally got my Intelligent Octopus - Ohme integration working, thanks to reading through the thread over in forum.octopus.energy that @browellm mentioned, I realised that I hadn't chosen Ohme instead of the Tesla right at the very start. No wonder I was confused 😅 If anyone else is in...

    Octopus Energy, including Intelligent and go

    @browellm sorry if this is a silly question but where are the Octopus forums? All I could find was forum.octopus.energy that seemed to be for discussions about their Agile tariff and needed an invite to access?

    Octopus Energy, including Intelligent and go

    Thanks for the reply, much appreciated. I did the "Disconnect Device" from the IO section of the app this morning and now the app doesn't show the Intelligent Octopus option from "Account & Settings" anymore. I'm hoping that's as expected and have asked their support to confirm all is set up...

    Octopus Energy, including Intelligent and go

    I'm tearing my hair out a bit at the moment with this, just because of the lack of transparency. How have you got your integration set up? I think I made a mistake using Google to login/setup my Ohme - but I'm not sure. I have a support ticket in with Ohme as I believe it should be...

    Octopus Energy, including Intelligent and go

    Thanks, yes my installer mentioned that too. I think the issue was that Octopus hadn't actually switched the account properly until today so both Octopus and Ohme were trying to handle the charging. Had confirmation this morning that I'm now switched to Intelligent and it seems to be behaving...

    Octopus Energy, including Intelligent and go

    Question about the Ohme Home Pro and Intelligent Octopus - there is a FAQ entry "Why can't I log into my Ohme account through the Octopus app?" - just wondering if this is something I'm supposed to set up? I've only worked through and got the test charge working today but slightly random...

    I collected from Bristol on Wednesday and mine was at 47%, popped up to Cribbs to try supercharging for the first time and there were loads of free bays, this was at lunchtime.

    Tesla guy tried with a bottle of some cleaner and a cloth on one but but it didn’t make any difference. I’d imagine it would need to be cut back a bit at least but hopefully they’ll sort it out

    Just to keep you all in the loop, I booked a service request yesterday and they’ve got on touch today to push the appointment out a bit so that there’s a loan car for me while they sort it

    This is an example, there are 2 here, 1 being pointed at and 1 directly south-east of it. They are quite hard to photograph and I didn't notice them at first and thought they were limited to the bonnet, which had about 7 or 8 of them, however on closer inspection at home it looks like there are...

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

    Collected mine today. The car is awesome. The paintwork not so much. There seems to be a flaw in the paint job itself, not cleaning swirls or scratches or anything like that, so a bit disappointed on that front. It looks like something had contaminated the paint, or the panels before paint, and...

    Yes same here. Really annoying as they seem to really not want you to call them and it takes forever to get through

    I received a text last Friday evening asking the same and it all kicked off for me this week. Fingers crossed for you

    And this morning had a text confirming the VIN and giving me the reg no. Not a sausage for months and then it all happens at once

    Model Y UK Delivery

    Fingers crossed for you, in the scheme of things I should have it 5 months after ordering which isn't bad. I waited that long for a Golf GTI back in 2006 and had been waiting longer than that for a VW California before deciding to cancel and go for the Y instead.

    Model Y UK Delivery

    It all happened for me yesterday, dates narrowed to a 2 week window and a VIN in the code and then a couple of hours later Tesla call to arrange delivery for 24/8 (Bristol). Slightly miffed that it'll be a 22 instead of a 72 plate but honestly just glad to be finally getting it #TeamBlue

    Blimey, just had the call from Tesla, they said they will be receiving the car on the 23rd August and arranged for me to collect on 24th (Bristol). Hope that helps with the shipping info

    Just had the towbar text too, I do want one, was a bit annoyed that it would have to be a retro fit thing, but don't want the risk of pushing the date out or them changing the finance agreement APR at this stage

    What seems so strange is that I have the same spec ordered and same delivery location as @WhiteHartMart and they ordered several weeks before me but the new post Q2 "revised" EDDs are so different. Only difference i can see is that I am Tesla finance not lease 🤷‍♂️
