    Wheel Tracking?

    I would not bother with a Tesla SC. On my first M3, I had it done at a local garage fitted with a Hunter Wheel Alignment machine. It is absolutely bang on, you get a print which details the set up before, and after, and shows how much it was out.

    Octopus Energy, including Intelligent and go

    My fix for Go ended yesterday. I did consider IO, but as I just plug in every 3 - 4 days, I decided to stick with Go. This year no email to say my fix was ending, so this morning I checked I had been put on the standard tariff. After a quick call to Octopus - straight through to a human after...

    Octopus Go

    My Go rate ends on 14 December and have just done a calculation from my last total monthly electricity bill. Last bill was £32.59 (for the last 12 months it has always been less than £40/m) On the new rate it will be £85.85 would have been. All things considered - I am not complaining in the...

    Q3 collections, new owners tales and experiences

    If you have the white interior and want to look after them then I can vouch for this stuff! It really does protect, and it is a doddle to apply. Applied from the day I collected the car back in June. Took me about 45 minutes to do the whole car with three coats (leaving 15 minutes between...

    Something not quite right with your order. Who have you ordered through? I ordered directly with Tesla just after you in March (WW20), collected end of June!

    Did you set that picture up. Another identical car to yours at the end of your drive going past!

    Car Registered on the day of delivery?

    How about trying something like 'insure daily' and get some insurance for a week or two? Then you can look for an annual policy to start in a week or two which might be more reasonable.

    Model Y RHD floor mats

    I have had mats from these guys for my model 3 and now my Y. I went for the premium ones and I can assure you there are far from rubbish. Top quality carpet, which fit perfectly and they clean up like new every time. For the price they are brilliant, and UK made. Delivered within 3 days of...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    In Q2 I found my VIN in the source code 27/05, then received the Tesla text providing me with a vin 27/05, and 30 minutes later I got a text inviting me to select a collection date. Collected 24/06. So it was exactly 4 week's from VIN text/collection text to getting my car. All very smooth...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    Console storage trays are in stock at the moment with Tesla. Also how about the Tesla storage bins, they were the first thing I ordered and very good from Tesla. Stops stuff falling in the cavernous each side in the boot. Edit: Locking wheel nut's as well, especially if you have inductions.

    20” Induction disaster

    I have used ALA for a number of years on previous and current car for return to invoice insurance, and last week I got wheel and tyre insurance for £330 for a 3 year policy. https://www.ala.co.uk/alloy-wheel-insurance The T&C's are transparent and I called them up and confirmed the black...

    Yep, I did about £90 as the test payment, and then the remaining after the first had shown in the Tesla account.

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

    It is the Tesla way. If you do not pay in advance as they request, then there may be the chance to re-allocate to someone else. On my previous 2 M3's they asked for it 7 days in advance, on my more recent Y, they asked for it to be made 14 days in advance. I paid in full which was fine with me...

    Model 3 RWD pre delivery hangout

    I somehow cannot see how you think leasing is a cheaper option. A leasing company is there to make money and profit. Th leasing companies will be making some good wedge on all the Tesla’s which were leased by them 3 years ago and now being returned and sold on for very good money. I am sure...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    Not sure you got a cancelled order to move forward, maybe they were just conservative with the EDD. I think you must be very close to the front of the queue on the next batch to arrive. I ordered the same spec as you on 15th March and lucky to have collected 24th June, but my pick-up was from...

    Is this a new record?

    I got a quote of £333.45 for a 3 year policy. Covers 3 replacement tyres (from damage) and 3 alloy repairs a year. Not bad value looking at the price of a tyre and if you are running on inductions. https://www.ala.co.uk/alloy-wheel-insurance

    Model Y UK Delivery

    I have just had a look at my Y. It has the same markings and I am not sure it is PPF. If it is PPF, then on mine it looks like it has been applied before paint. Just a thought, might it might be a marking as part of the plastic mold injection process when making the front and rear bumpers ?

    Model Y UK Delivery

    51% charge for me last week. I think this was pretty consistent from the recent collections. I was more than happy. If you were to collect an ICE car today from a dealership, would they would be so generous as to give you half a tank of fuel. Very doubtful.

    4 wheel alignment - non SC

    I had a previous M3 done on a Hunter system local to me and it was out and they made the necessary adjustments. They provide you with 2 print out's. One before, which will show how much it is out, and then one after adjustment. Should I need to have any wheel alignment done in the future, I...

    Well said. Maybe @beasty54 should wait until he receives his car before making an assumption. He may actually be very surprised. My Y was spotless yesterday.

    Model Y UK Delivery

    To answer a few questions a few of you may have. Well I collected my Y today from Trafford. Out of the 3 Tesla collections I’ve had in total, this one was by far the easiest. In summary: 51% charge, which I thought was very good (doubt you would get an ICE car today with half a tank of fuel)...

    If I used your naming method. Mine would be ‘White - lost count!’ I’ve also been driving for 33 years. Must write down what I’ve had over the years, think I might be knocking on for 30+ Now that would make an interesting thread. List of cars you have had through the years.

    3rd Big day. My first M3 in Dec 19 was when they were collected from Stockport, then the second M3 was from the Debenhams side last December. Now it's the overflow car park the other side. My assumption is your car will not be in the UK yet, it is currently on Morning peace which is moored in...

    Trade in values seem high again ?

    My first M3 I sold via Motorway which was seamless. The last M3 I took a punt and tried on Autotrader. I priced it fair in line with other private sales on Autotrader of the same age etc. It had less than 2k miles on it and was 7 months old. I had a couple of dreamers and a few traders...

    You can change the plates over in about 10 seconds. Tesla will not put your personal reg direct to the car. When I collected my 3 in December, the V5 came within 2 days. I collect mine on Friday and I would be surprised if my V5 does not arrive next Monday.

    I collect mine at 10:30 this Friday, the first date and time I was offered at the end of May. As people have said, I think the earliest collections are 23rd. Have a friend who works for a large car transporter company. They don’t have the contract with Tesla, he informs me BCA are the main...

    I sold my 2019 SR+ last October via Motorway, and can recommend them. They paid me exactly as offered. As long as you are honest in your initial description you should get what is offered.

    No need to be double manned. LGV drivers can drive for 4.5 hours before needing a 45 minute mandatory break, only 130 miles from the NEC. Obviously if they are within hours before loading. I would imagine that there will be loads of transporters already pre booked and waiting for when the boat...

    Thanks for the info on the change of location, I didn’t even notice on my account for my collection. On looking they have moved from the Debenhams car park where I picked up in December to the overflow car park on the John Lewis side. Not surprising as they have been storing inventory in that...

    Reg Number before delivery

    You should get your reg number in plenty of time prior to collection. This time round they seem to have it sorted (maybe because of the reduced number of cars for Q2) Back in December when I got my M3, it was received about 5 days before collection. For the Y I have on order now, I got both the...

    Just thought I would put this out there for anyone interested in upgrading the interior mats. I bought a set of these for my first M3 SR+ which I had in 2019, when they didn't come with mats. I then put them in my 2021 M3 SR+, and some 2.5 years later they look as good as when I first got...
