Website now says estimated delivery - June. I expect that will increase
To be fair, it was saying June in February, when I put my original order in. If it hasn't changed, that might actually be good news!

Website now says estimated delivery - June. I expect that will increase
has anyone on here been made aware of anymore deliveries being made?
Seems to have gone really quite now the end of quarter has been reached.
Trying to get a feel for when or if i will get mine that was cancelled last friday.
Last thing i was told was the port was shut.
Well if you get anywhere tell them to sling mine on the back please as not far from you in, just the other side of market harborough.DrBobM had his Model S delivered by Bristol yesterday in that thread but that would've been organised before quarter end and was personally delivered by Bristol staff I believe. Hoping for some kind of communication today as that's what the chap in Amsterdam told me. Mine escaped from the port though so that may also change things.
There's a temptation to be cheeky and call AC Binns to see if they have had any more bookings...
In Feb it said March. Then in March it said May. The way they like to deliver at the end of each quarter, it will prob be Aug-Sep before any RHD cars land hereTo be fair, it was saying June in February, when I put my original order in. If it hasn't changed, that might actually be good news!

After a flurry of comms from March 18-26th I haven’t heard anything. However Tesla did state that I didn’t need to do anything further, and that once the current situation (I think they meant prioritising deliveries) had calmed down, then they will reassess and make contact directly via a call or text, but they couldn’t say how long, just that they will endeavour to do as soon as possible.has anyone on here been made aware of anymore deliveries being made?

I'm in Harborough so if they had both it would be great, however it sounds like they're in different parts of the country for some reason.
I called Binns anyway and the chap was happy to talk, Tesla's last booking with them was the 31st (no surprise) and they apparently couldn't get the budget for anything after that, instead switching to staff-driven deliveries like the one we know of in Bristol. He would've quite happily taken on the job as they have trailers available and suggested I talk to Birmingham.
I called Birmingham and was put through to Amsterdam without realising, this chap was less useful that the one the other day - he didn't correct me when I told him that my car was on his site in Brum and I'm calling about delivery. He seemed to miss the point and asked me which collection location was most convenient... that will be my house, please. After mentioning the transport company he would've happily arranged to have it ready for collection if it was at my expense but got more defensive when I asked if they would be paying for it, tried to fob me off with "old ladies and pregnant women only" but we know that isn't true and nor are they doing essential deliveries only. I made sure he was aware.
He's apparently going to talk to the delivery team, that's what the chap two days ago was going to do but nothing became of it. It's clear that they're resisting now we're in Q2, which was expected but it won't stop me trying. He said he'd email for a home address, will see if that happens.
I should point out that I'm not trying to jump past key workers, evidence here shows that we are either generally past that or they're treating everyone equal anyway. I just want my car or at least a better idea of how long I'll have to wait so I can cancel my insurance.
Edit: The story is changing, now it's in Solihull. Maybe I misunderstood Solihull as Summer Hill? I know I was told that I could collect it two days ago and now it's 'stuck' in Solihull. Then he hung up on me.
It doesn't matter if it was "registered" the day before...they recognise revenue on delivery so it would still be a Q2 sale. There is obviously a big incentive to try to pull sales into the previous Q if they were below a sales target, so you would expect there to be controls around monitoring and preventing this (and the auditors would check that too...).That's pretty s**t really. Unfortunately as it's now Q2 it seems like they aren't motivated at all to deliver. I would not be surprised if the guy on here that got his Model S yesterday finds out that it was actually registered the day before.
"Old ladies and pregnant women" makes no sense at all, they aren't even the key worker classifications. What reason would either of those groups have to a) buy a Tesla and b) drive one?
Nice, looks good in black.I originally was due to have my car delivered to my house but due to the CV19 issue mine was stuck at AutoXP in Banbury which meant my delivery for last Wednesday couldn't happen.
Instead the car was transported from Banbury/Chipping Warden to Heathrow and was due to be delivered to me within the next few weeks, I thought instead of making Tesla deliver themselves I could go down and utilise the contact free handover process they've got right now so I drove from Sheffield to Heathrow to pick her up yesterday and I'm glad I did. They've got a ton of cars there at the minute all double parked blocking each of them in so they had to rearrange cars to get mine out.
No issue on the collection other than that, wasn't much charge in it to get home but it wasn't the end of the world as I got to play with the features at a super charger.
I'm just waiting for the App to activate now though as it's a lease car they said it can take 48 hours so hopefully it'll be on soon
Have they not told you where your car is sat at the moment?Nice, looks good in black.
I just wish they would let us know where the cars were and what options we had.
Southampton last wednesday, nothing since!Have they not told you where your car is sat at the moment?
After my email with deliveries I had two calls with a very helpful girl at Birmingham whose name I missed.
First I was told that while I could be re-matched with an identical car that wasn't trapped in Solihull (where I thought mine wasn't), I couldn't have it delivered because I'm on PCP. I'll let you think about that.
The second call was to tell me that I could have it delivered on PCP but only because I had been in for a test drive and had given my licence details as part of that. However, it can't be delivered on a trailer because no companies are operating and will be driven. Once again, think about that. She seemed surprised that I knew of deliveries made by transporter and admitted that she only knows that Birmingham haven't been able to do it.
My PCP apparently now has to be re-submitted with the mobile number they phoned me on, I have no idea why as I had everything right up to the day before the planned collection but I should at least have a car coming my way. The reg will remain the same but I have a new VIN, I know the last 6 digits but I'm not expecting the website to update too quickly.
I need a lie down.
really confused now, what's PCP got to do with it?
Mine's a lease so presumably they will get paid from the lease company but not sure what the significance of that is. Did you tell her Binns are still working and made deliveries for you this week?
I've emailed but no response yet. think a phone call may be in order. What number did you call?
We had a similar text message from Tesla just over a week ago saying our lease company ZenAuto (part of zenith) had put a hold on our order as you’ve mentioned.Quick update following a call to Zenith (salary sacrifice lease, originally ordered 8 Jan, had requested March delivery but was never matched pre-covid anyway):
Shrug. Not much can be done if that's the state of play!
- Tesla have said they don't plan any deliveries for April / May (that might be the old messaging re: ships etc, given others potentially getting a car collected or delivered through some means based on above)
- Zenith has put on hold any new deliveries for any manufacturer while in lockdown
