    2022 Shipping Movements

    Knowing my luck, it'll get stuck and after an intensive rescue operation, will be freed and set off again, minus my car which will have inexplicably come free of it's lashings and rolled off the back.

    As excited as I am for you all receiving VINs this morning, this is the Shipping Thread. Don't clog up it up for people trying to find actual meaningful shipping news. Post about it here instead - UK 2022 Orders to Delivery. The wrath of George Symonds is forthcoming... 💀 Mod comment: what...

    FINALLY! Got the text. 13th Sep for 1st April order. Think that calls for a beer 🍺

    Some very questionable guess work leads me to believe there is around 6000 cars here. The crazy thing is, that's not even 2 RoRos... Guess that really illustrates the scale of these vessels.

    If you have a VIN assigned, your car is on a ship. I'd say you can get excited.

    Spoke with a Tesla rep on the phone this morning. My 1st April order (YLR, MSM, Black int, 20s) has a VIN assigned (wouldn't tell me it) and is due for delivery in September. No more specificity than that, but hoping this helps people with similar specs & ODs.

    How many people have actually had the text from Tesla vs just discovering their hidden VIN in source code? My order is a lease (OD 1st April) and still haven't heard anything. Keeping my fingers crossed they're getting around to me...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    100% agree. Ordered on 1st April - I would have been perfectly happy with Black or White ext. & Geminis but made the conscious decision to upgrade to MSM & Inductions based on the reduced lead time (obviously they look pretty, too). I've then had the decidedly agonising experience of watching...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    I really wouldn't take any notice of what Tesla / Lex say - it's all total conjecture at this stage. I was told since order (4th April) that my car (MSM) would definitely be turning up in early June on multiple occasions and that my business partner's car (Blue) was going to be end of Summer...

    To quote the authority on this topic (Mr. Miserable): MORNING CHORUS is almost certainly a Tesla charter and she will depart on 16 Jul and arrive in Southampton on 11 Aug and Zeebrugge on 14 Aug. I'm struggling to find any likely departures before this one and so she could be the 1st ship of Q3...

    I'm sure everyone is already aware but just for the benefit of those who are still holding out hope of a miracle July delivery... Spoke with Tesla on the phone this afternoon who confirmed to me that they are not expecting another shipment until mid-August at the earliest. Recommended I call...

    Charging for terraced houses

    This looks like a great, simple and - I would hope - relatively affordable solution. Attaching photos for everyone here.

    Charging for terraced houses

    This was what I was hoping to hear. From my research, it seems a few people are already doing this (with varying responses from councils). Has anyone had any success with installing a proper (7kw) charging point on a terraced house? From what I can tell, there are building regs which say the...

    Charging for terraced houses

    How do you feel it's impacted you from a cost perspective vs those with the benefits of cheaper, tariff-based home charging? I was/am considering this but worried about how much more I'll be spending vs those with home chargers.

    So I tried camping in the car for one night......

    Interesting! Would you say the actual 'experience' of camp mode itself inside the car a decent one? and that it was more the anxiety of making noise in the middle of the campsite that was the problem? I do a lot of solo travel / camping in remote places so wouldn't really need to worry about...

    Charging for terraced houses

    Around a quarter of us living in the UK live in terraced houses and with the government's 2030 ban on the sale of ICE cars fast approaching, they are going to need to step up the roll out of proper charging infrastructure / solutions for those of us without access to off-street parking. I...

    From what I can gather, there doesn’t seem to be many MSM cars being matched. Seen plenty of Blues / Blacks / Whites so can only assume: a) MSM is in incredibly high demand, or b) They’ve not built many this Q Either way - and seeing texts coming in for people with ODs after me - I think this...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    In an effort to brighten up the doom and gloom permeating this thread, I think we all need to remember that - historically - EDDs are about as useful as an inflatable dart board (at least until they narrow to a very small window). By this time next week, they'll likely have changed another 2 or...

    Me and my business partner are both waiting on MYLRs through Select Car Leasing, early-April order date on both cars. His spec was Blue/Black 20s, EDD for August Mine was MSM/Black 20s, EDD for May He got his text from Tesla yesterday saying his car is en-route. Nothing for me. Just goes to...

    Latest headlines from the Shipping thread... THEBEN (the most promising-looking ship set to dock in Shanghai within the coming days) has since changed her itinerary and will no longer call at Southampton in mid-June. Mr. M has his eyes on a couple of other potential ships (LAKE COMO & SWALLOW...

    Yeah, Mr M only estimated that GS would come to Southampton / Zeebrugge based on her departure date and routing via Suez. Never had anything confirmed as far as I’m aware. (For the record, I’m also a total newbie at this so absolutely no one should be listening to me) 😂

    2022 Shipping Movements

    Agreed, don't think we can trust anything until VINs start popping up. But do think @S3XY T3SLA makes a good point re: the slow down of production and likely backlog. Don't think he ever confirmed the itinerary - only gave estimates based on her departure date / the fact she was due to Suez.

    An update from the Shipping thread (for those of you who don't follow it)... Looks like GLOVIS SPLENDOR may be headed to Koper, Slovenia if a certain Reuters article is to be believed. If this is the case, THEBEN may well be the first UK ship of Q2 -- ETA mid-June.

    Looks like this may have changed to first shipment of the quarter if the Reuters article @delta0 shared is correct? *deflates like a sad balloon* 😔 (but also quietly happy for our European friends)

    Just heard from my leasing company who have finally given me an EDD after the order made 1 month ago (Jun 20-26). This is giving me good vibes as it’s the first communication I’ve had re: delivery from them whatsoever. By extension, I suppose this adds fuel to the fire of GLOVIS SPLENDOR being...

    Model 3 Leasing UK

    Hi all. Am sure this has been discussed previously but don't fancy trawling through 166 pages... What's the deal with paying for Supercharging and/or premium connectivity with a leased vehicle? I've seen people discussing this a few times. Naturally, I wanted a Tesla for the 'seamless' user...

    Long-time lurker, first-time poster. Not a day goes by on this thread without some EDD drama 🙃 I've become obsessed with MrM's shipping thread. Looks like there are 4500 Teslas likely to be UK-bound within the coming days on GLOVIS SPLENDOR (early June arrival to Southampton). How close that...
