I'm picking up tomorrow at Chatswood. Rego details were not in the ServiceNSW app this morning, but now it's there! The numberplate is EXA, so for me it turns out to be "none of the above".

I'll be on a trip next week and will have limited phone/internet connection, so obviously I've been quite stressed about the delivery sms coming while I can't answer it! I contacted the Chatswood sales assistant and apparently they anticipate cars starting to get delivered on the 10th of Jan. If...

Merry Christmas everyone, and condolences to everyone who (like me) was hoping for a Model 3 under the Christmas tree. At least the MSC Immacolata has just docked in Port Kembla.

SMS from Tesla has made my day! I've accepted the Vision prompt and now have EDD Dec 16-30. Newcastle, NSW (Sydney pickup). It might even come before Christmas!

I just saw this on Twitter and briefly scrolled the comments about how much import (from Giga Shanghai) would be required to meet this goal for German deliveries. It seems nobody's quite sure even if the "double 2021" goal was actually reliably stated by Tesla, but if it's even remotely true it...

No you don't. We just bought a second-hand Renault Zoe (which will complement the 3LR when it finally arrives) and my wife did the rego changeover yesterday. The ServiceNSW attendant was confused by how cheap it was!

I've also got the updated EDD! It was still saying 6-9 months yesterday. LR order on March 20, so if it comes before Dec 20 it will stay within that original estimate.

I've been camping out of internet range all weekend, and half expected/hoped that Sydney would get a big batch of VINs allocated while I wasn't looking. No such luck, but I'm still optimistic about many more cars coming this year.

In the almost total absence of the kind of activity I was expecting here once October started, I'm setting lower bars for "exciting progress". Today's Tesla entertainment is simply updating the app!

On top of all the excitement about Tesla starting export builds again, my first accessory has just arrived! I got roof racks which have been out of stock for at least 6 months. I don't know if having parts accumulate in the garage makes it easier or harder to wait for the car!

My EDD is back in the app like others have recently reported. It was "6-9 months from order place date", then it switched to "manage your order in your Tesla account", then yesterday it was totally blank! It happened to be exactly 6 months yesterday since I placed my order, so I was intrigued...

My LR order was March 20, not long after the EDD expanded out to "6-9 months". I saw a few pages back that someone with an order date of about Mar 15 got a car at short notice due to a cancellation, and that feels tantalisingly close! I know many of you are waiting for RWD orders and seem to...

I rented a M3LR for a weekend before ordering, and drove from Lake Macquarie to Scone. Plenty of trucks use that road and it was liberally supplied with potholes for testing! Autopilot did not "see" them, and I had to disable it for some sections because the perfectly lane-centred position was...

I wonder if these dates are why we haven't seen the Aus VIN storm yet since production restarted. A full shipload of Model 3s is less than 2 days production run, and they wouldn't want to have a bunch of RHD cars sitting around clogging the yards before the ship arrives. Hopefully they've...

I hired a Model 3 for a weekend before placing my order, and I was amazed at the amount of storage space. I filled the bonnet, boot, and under-boot with empty suitcases and bags, and then I moved all those bags across to the BMW 5er wagon that I'll be replacing. The wagon was chock-full! Of...

My order date was March 20, so the EDD is still saying "6-9 months". I'm excited to watch the progress on all the cars currently shipping because Tesla need to catch up on a backlog if I'm going to get a Q4 delivery as anticipated. Having the long EDD right from the start completely alters the...

Hi Everyone, I've lurked for a long time (since about page 330). I've enjoyed the read, but haven't had much to add - but claiming the 13,000th post seems like a good enough excuse to jump in!
