    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    UK Power Networks came out to install the 100A fuse, no cost incurred!

    Model X UK deliveries in 2016

    I'm probably on the same boat - expecting delivery end of March. I've just got Phoenix Works booked in to install the Wall Connector on the 14th March so can let you know how it goes. One thing I have had to do in prep is get an 100A main fuse to replace the old 60A main fuse I had.

    Time from "in production" to UK delivery

    Difficult to say which ship. The Kentucky looks like it will get in too late (5th March) as my delivery is due w/c 27th March, leaving only three weeks from arrival in Europe. Having said that the Iowa is only due in four days earlier than that now on the 1st March. Who knows, it'll get here...

    Time from "in production" to UK delivery

    Just noticed MyTesla has updated to 'Your Tesla has been loaded onto a vessel and is en route to Europe.' Think that's just over three weeks from production complete (27/01/17)

    New finance terms

    Interesting, who did you speak to in Sales? I'm about to finalise the finance on my MX order (going PCP) and dropping to 3.9% would make a big difference!

    Model X Insurance UK

    Here a blog post i found: Blog - What's The Difference Between Cat 5, Cat 6 And Cat 7 Trackers? - Tracker Fit I'd guess Tesla would be ranked Cat 6 which is better than Cat 7?

    Model X Insurance UK

    Good question! I got a quote of £550 for my MX from LV through CompareTheMarket and just ticked the box saying the car had a tracker as assumed the inbuilt capabilities were good enough?

    Time from "in production" to UK delivery

    I know! When I spoke to the DS earlier they said that my MX was 'on it's way' to Tilburg but I didn't probe on anymore details as I'm just assuming it's on the Iowa given the timings.

    Time from "in production" to UK delivery

    Looks like the Maersk Iowa left harbour earlier today, so will hopefully get an update on MyTesla today/tomorrow. Spoke to the delivery team today and confirmed a delivery date of w/c 27th March!

    I just used CompareTheMarket for my MX and best quote was from LV for £550.

    Time from "in production" to UK delivery

    Congrats, that's exciting! So, do you think they will rush the delivery/handover just to get it in the quarter? Does that mean they'll cut corners? The upside is that it will mean I'm except from the new VED charges coming in April so probably worth doing.

    UK / London - Model X - anyone out there?

    Looks amazing! Hopefully taking delivery of mine next month and thinking of something similar - am guessing it was quite pricey given it took 5 days?

    Time from "in production" to UK delivery

    So, got a call from my delivery specialist today asking me If I'd like to take delivery early at the end of March. I was originally looking to delay delivery until June (need to save a bit more...) but now they're asking if I can take delivery next month. It also looks like the car is about to...

    Time from "in production" to UK delivery

    It's been a couple of weeks since I was told by Tesla that production was complete on my Model X and it was making its way from the factory to a US port. I'm finding myself checking MyTesla for a new update everyday as I'm guessing it will get loaded onto a ship sometime soon. Any ideas how...

    So....just got a quote back from Eastbourne Electrical to install the Tesla Wall Connector. Thought it was a relatively straightforward install but they're quoting £850 (inc. VAT). Apparently as it's an Outdoor installation and the place I want it isn't right next to the fuse box it's a bigger...

    Getting ready for Model X delivery

    Thanks arg, good advice. I definitely need to look into the CHAdeMO vs. Type 2 thing a bit more before making a decision!

    Getting ready for Model X delivery

    Thanks David, think it's Glinn who's actually coming over this week! I'll have a look at RimPro too, good tip!

    Thanks Wannabe, this is really useful. I'll have a look into that Type-2 connector as well, still trying to get my head around all the different adapters!

    Y4ndy - have you got any feedback on the ToughPRO mats? Are they customised for RHD and how are you finding them? Thanks

    Getting ready for Model X delivery

    I just received confirmation a couple of days ago that my Model x has exited production so I'm starting to think about all the things I need to get ahead of delivery in the next month or so.

    Has anyone in the uk installed a tow bar on their s?

    I saw on one of the other threads that Tesla can fit the tow bar to Model X's post production: Confirmation - you can add accessory or towing package after delivery Not sure if this is possible with the Model S as well?

    Has anyone got any experience of buying the Tesla Wall Connector? I'm due to take deliver of my MX60 in April and wondering if they're likely to have these in stock at the service centre and how far in advanced I should think of getting it installed at home.

    Time from "in production" to UK delivery

    Hi all, Think my MX 60D will probably be in the same boat as well as I noticed it went into production on MyTesla yesterday! From looking at the above I'm guessing it will complete production some time mid next week and start the long journey over the pond. Exciting times!

    eAP vs. Self-Driving Hardware

    Yes, I think you're all right. 8 cameras installed but only 4 activated unless you opt for full self-driving. One other thing I've been curious about is the 4 active cameras for eAP. Technically there are three forward facing cameras now installed behind the rear-view mirror (close, mid and...

    eAP vs. Self-Driving Hardware

    One question I've been struggling to get out of my delivery specialist is whether my MX will come with 4 or 8 cameras pre-installed for eAP. I'm presuming 4 but does that mean that the extra 4 cameras required for Self-Driving can be installed after delivery and only for a minimal amount of...
