Spell checker got me and I was still half asleep 🤣 curbed

Wife just curved an Alloy on the car, 5 weeks old 😭😭 Anyone know of any good touch up? Seen a few on eBay / Amazon but wondered if anyone could recommend ?

So I went the full works on mine at got it ceramic coated and protected inside and out , full front PPF, mirrors etc. Cost all in was £1600, not cheap but the guy always does a great job and it's guaranteed for 10 years for the PPF and 5 years for the ceramic coat. I probably won't have the...

Just got her back after two days with the detailer and full frontend PPF. First red one he's seen and he has seen a few model Ys

It's not good value but it is good fun 😉. Used mine a handful of times and it is remarkable but definitely a luxury and not required. To have the power on demand if I need it is good for me

It's all I've got ;)

I had that on previous cars although ice where the eco modes also got me taken out a few time, throttle lag was awful with a dead spot where you were on the throttle but it wouldn't respond for a while. End up leaving it in sport mode, same as the Tesla, just leave it in sport mode and the car...

After using the boost for a few days it's crazy, I won't use it too often but a real world use case I had today. Was at the traffic lights and there was a merge around 300metres up the road, I could tell the white van was going to try his hardest to stop me merging, the second the light went...

For anyone looking at trade-in values that will be taking delivery this quarter, I found Tesla to be very bad value wise. Funnily just traded in our 3 year old Skoda Kodiaq (only 15k miles on the clock), purchased 3 years back for 33k new. webuyanycar offered me £25,100. Had a few stone chips...

Fantastic detail, looks amazing. Mine going in in Thursday, cannot wait to see what they do with it

Was thinking that also 🤣

Thanks for the detailed response, appreciate it

Thanks all, appreciate the replies

Are there any best practises on charging etc? Should I run it down to 10-20% then charge it back to 90% as needed or should I be charging a small amount each night back to 90% What's best practises for maintaining good battery health.

Really love the white interior, dangerous for me with small kids. Interesting on the PSI, is that recommended most are going for i.e.42psi? Will check mine, must say I'm also really pleasantly surprised with the ride, nothing like the demo car I drove 3 months back.

Agreed with your detailer, there is no sign of where the edges of the film are, there is no way they could have fitted it without some sign of the edge, checked all around the front bumper to the arches and couldn't see or feel and lip from the film edge. No difference in feel either to the rest...

I haven't seen any proof of existence on mine, checked the edges and couldn't find where the edge of the film is so suspect it's not there. Our detailer we use is pretty honest so I wk get him to confirm , if it's there it's absolutely perfect, no hint of edges of bubbles

Decided to give it a quick wash, polish and get some tyre shine on it. On closer inspection, not a swirl, chip or anything wrong with it at all and the paint work. Tiny bit of bubbling under the back ppf but that's being fussy. The weird thing is even though the 20" wheels are big they still...

Works fine for me, did you get the Premium connectivity as mine had expired so I purchased anyway. I have a spotify family plan so simply logged in with that. A tip for anyone with a family plan, make sure you set up a seperate Spotify profile for the car otherwise everytime you drive it and...

Just to add to the tale of pickup success, Tesla have now refunded the 18k back in my account, I had a feeling it would be the day after the QTR ended. Must say to anyone waiting, the car is so much better then I imagined. Red with Black handles and wheels makes a nice contrast, no issues with...

Flawed it a couple of times and it was quick but not hugely, too weak and couldn't resist

Just purchased the speed boost, couldn't help myself. 🤣🤣 Look forward to trying tomorrow

It's a nice red in person and changes dependent on angles etc. Lovely touch that there was a rainbow as I drove out in the car, cannot get over the size of the ship that was sat at the back of the docks. Absolutely huge in person

Here's a better pic

She's home, really great experience with the whole pick up. Smooth and well handled by the Tesla team. 30 mile drive home and it definitely feels smoother then the one I test drove. Really happy so far and it's rapid, this is before I purchase the speed boost

Looks very nice, just in the queue myself now. Only 2 before me 👏👏

Looks like an airport checkin , will be getting there around 5.30-6pm chancing it early . Best of luck

Great to hear you are taking delivery today, I will be there around 5.30-6pm. On your story, really sorry your dad never got to see your car and I'm sure he would have been mega excited to see it with you, not much else I can really say apart from cherish the good memories and he would have...

It was all via the App and automated process, in my case there had been a mistake and it shouldn't have prompted me for the payment notification as there was no car allocated for delivery in June. At the time the supervisor was very apologetic etc , it was the sorting getting the money back...

This happened to me and I paid 17.5K upfront when asked , they then changed the EDD to end of the year Oct-Nov. I then asked for the money back as I felt it was a little misleading the way it was positioned. At the point of paying the EDD was June so assumed it was to get delivery allocated and...

Yep, I'm going on emonth then will renew once tha is up. Also going to buy speed boost in a couple of months, get comfortable with the general car, then upgrade it so we can go warp 10

Your car looks fantastic, I have a Samsung S22 Ultra and I remember it being too tall to fit on the charge pad, fingers crossed it just about fits. Still don't have Android Auto so that's going to take some getting used too.

I had no choice, kids woke me at 5am as always :) Just getting on with my WFH day as usual, hopefully make it go quicker.

Just got a courtesy call from Tesla about pickup tomorrow. When the call started she seemed a little hesitant, my first thought was they was cancelling as I was allocated the damaged red one 😱 In the end just a check to see if I still wanted to pick it up, oh yes without a doubt

Good to know on all counts , roll on tomorrow .

Getting it detailed and protected next week, will give it a good clean on Friday with my two bucket system to get it looking good and some decent polish in the interim

Southampton

Only one more sleep to collection :) going to chance it and try getting there an hour before my slot, worse case they turn me away.

Brilliant and welcome , time will hopefully fly for you.

That's an unfortunate plate 🤣

Been across the other side at Lepe watching many such boats coming in 👍👍

I remember back in 2014 managing 22% discount off a factory order Audi A6 Avant Blackline fulled specced up, I miss those days when the punter had all the power , dam youuuuuuuuu Musk and your new fangled electronic automobiles

Mine is a 347 also

Guessing mine is on that given pick up is on the 30th, hopefull ymeans I avoided that damaged Red one in Southmpton

I would rather they didn't clean it to be honest, remember I used to tell Skoda and BMW never to clean my cars. Do a far better job at home with the two buckets system and proper products/clothes. Not the same cloth that has watch 15 other cars that day

Question is, was it on a transporter ready to go elsewhere or in Southampton for pickup by some unlucky punter (probably me) Will be double checking everything on mine even if its hammerimg down. Going in for a new car detail on the 7th and ppf on the front , they will get rid of any rubbish...

Or me , that last bit made me wonder if he was joking or not :D

Did you get there early and if so did they have any issues with you picking up early? I'm going to chance it and try getting there early and see what they say

Likewise not thinking about it as I have a busy week so Thursday will come around in no time, when I had the model Y performance on order before canning and going LR with a speed boost upgrade I think I changed the colour several times from Black, Blue, Red, Black, Red , Black. When we went...
