2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

[phillcom3]

Welcome to the forum, and congratulations on taking the plunge!

Don’t be too pessimistic on your delivery - yours is a pretty standard configuration, so they will be making lots. There’s still plenty of time for a September delivery, in my case everything happened within the space of about two weeks.

Truth is, nobody knows of course, not even Tesla, so just chill out, order some accessories and get your home charger sorted out so you’re prepared when it does arrive.

im still trying to figure out how you got yours set in 2 3 weeks? i still haven't heard anything since the text last week saying we will hear when it leaves the usa.

I did Heathrow collection, part-ex, and happened to also be away on holiday for the first scheduled delivery date (which they kindly pushed 9 days until I returned).

I asked for a delay of 11 days but that must have been too much, put the phone down and my VIN and invoice were gone!

I did Heathrow collection, part-ex, and happened to also be away on holiday for the first scheduled delivery date (which they kindly pushed 9 days until I returned). My p/x amount was listed as a credit on the final invoice, listed as “Settlement Payment” directly before the “Plug-In Grant” credit.

That's good information, so that line was missing off my first invoice- I'll know for the next one. Thanks.

Also just taken the plunge, M3 P+, blue with black interior, AP, only have a "reservation number" so far

Not that it is a material difference, but just checked and they gave me a delay of 8 days after the original date they set. I did pay in full before the originally scheduled delivery date and letting them know that I was out of country on holiday and asking for an accommodation. I had hoped that paying in full first might garner some sympathy. I'm not sure if it mattered.

Also, my first "Final Invoice" omitted my part-ex as well and I emailed the deliverygb address and they corrected it.

You can add mine to the list if you like? Got a hidden VIN overnight: 524xxx.

P3+ blue/white. No res. Ordered 6JUL. Delivery to B'ham (or will take LHR or Bristol).

Exactly same spec as you. 5240XX. Delivery to B’ham. Looks like a batch of blue/white P3+ are on their way.

1st September has come...the website is still quoting September delivery for new orders...anyone believe that one? I sure as **** don't.

Are you able to purchase the car from Drive Electric at the end of the lease?

Not as far as i know, its just a lease so technically it should go back after 2 year.

That said my last car (SEAT Leon Cupra) was on lease and at the end of that they offered me a few options - 1. carry on the lease for up to 3 months with no paperwork to do. 2. sign to extend the lease for 6 months+ 3. buy it. I got that one through a broker but it was with SEAT / VW financial services so that might be why they offered what they did.

My spec too also got my hidden VIN

Ok so, let's have a laugh. I'm assuming my car is on Glovis Sunlight which has now cleared Panama Canal and should dock 11th September. If this is the case, how long do you think it will take to arrive at Stockport to put a teeny weeny smile on my face?!

 

[Yev000]

how long do you think it will take to arrive at Stockport

About a day to unload it and charge, then 2-3 days on a lorry. Then they clean it. After then it will depend how busy the service center is.

 

[AndrewR]

Don’t know if anyone has an answer here - I am expecting a long wait for my M3. My only concern is the potential impact of a no deal Brexit, as cars are delivered into Belgium first does this mean there could be an extra import duty to pay?

Not sure exactly how long it will take, but I am reasonably certain it will feel like an eternity

Doubtful - it will be goods going the other way that will have duties imposed IMHO.

I assumed it would go on another ship to UK or will they use land transport from Zeebrugge?

Scotland is ship (or so I heard), but England is Lorry I imagine.

They don't mention the year though.

 

[nightowl]

Forgot to mention in my post: At the time I ordered, the estimated delivery on the website showed as September. I was told by the sales advisor that it would more likely take 2 or 3 months.

 

[westrow3]

SC VIN appeared overnight 523xxx

 

[tj333]

Me too, 490XXX, also got a final invoice with scheduled delivery date of 3rd Oct - excited! I wonder if they'll pull it forward a few days for end of quarter?
