There's an iOS app for VIN checking in the Useful Links tab on the spreadsheet.
I've also just added a link to a google chrome addon that makes source checking a bit easier..

Oh no!!! Sorry!!!
I'm checking every half hour, but I'm doing it in a lottery scratchcard kinda way, I search VIN" and click through the 10 hits. If I search 5YJ3 then there's either no hits or a hit, no fun.
you're not the first to win the Vin Bingo Booby prize..
I use
vin:"null
get 3 hits - I look forward to "No Search Results"
I should really run a script to do it but I would likely be checking that the script was ok periodically and use the spare time writing more drivel on the forums..

Looks like you are the same spec as me, is it black interior? I would have thought this would be a common order and hence churned out quickly but unfortunately the spreadsheet begs to differ...
Sorry to be nosey but I notice you are a fellow (previous?) Elise owner! I love my Elise and I really am concerned that the Tesla won't hit the spot but now I'm commuting I need something suitable for all weathers
Yeah, it is black interior. I've added it the spec now. Yes, it looks like we are near the back of the que
I did have an Elise up until a few years ago. It was somewhat non standard, up to 400 BHP in final spec.
I've driven the P+ and it's very responsive to the throttle up to about 90 mph but acceleration then tails off. Handling seemed very good for such a heavy car, obviously not up to Elise standards but that's only to be expected.

Dear GoogleSheet Admins Please could a graph of orders per week be implemented?
It's a shame tesla are re-assigning order numbers, if they were static we could get the bigger picture of cars in the UK.
Would be interested to see the rate of change, if there's an acceleration of demand as people get to see the M3s out and about.
Maybe fence sitters are reading this and can't cope with the stress and decide to keep their ICEs until the smoke clears, which of course it won't if they keep driving ICEs

That must have been brutal! Mine is a pretty much stock S3 supercharged, so only 217bhp. I test drove the P+ too, but it was a quick unscheduled test drive so barely had chance to scratch the surface of the performance.

I don't think we can trust order numbers as indicators of demand now since we know people get a new order number when they get their Final Invoice (and we also know some people have had multiple Final Invoices).
Looking at the Order Sort on the sheet, May is obviously all over the place with 1,500 orders on the first day, but we end May with ~4,500 orders.
From there:
- Fri 7 June : ~4,700 (+200)
- Fri 14 June : no data
- Fri 21 June : 5,400 (+700 in two weeks)
- Fri 28 June : ~5,800 (+400)
- Fri 5 July : 6,300 (+500)
- Fri 12 July : 7,000 (+700)
- Fri 19 July : ~7,400 (+400)
- Fri 26 July : ~8,100 (+700)
I think after 26 July there are final orders going out and we can't trust the numbers anymore.
I'm also inclined to feel those two spike weeks include some invoice re-issuing but that's just guesswork.
I finally made email contact with someone at Tesla today. I managed to get hold of a senior manager for UK and Ireland, thank goodness. I was being completely ignored. They were really responsive and helpful, in terms of some contact at least. I will post a summary and a few extracts, but in terms of the thousands of cars, here is what they said...
This is in the context of my order and reservation, but an interesting insight for all I would think.

I'm quoting myself, time to stop hitting refresh on the vin for a bit...
Quick export of data, this is what I was after:
Apart from early adopter s in first few weeks - there's a nice uplift End of June / Start of July - answers on a postcard to the usual forum...
