I'm so glad I found this thread, I felt like I was alone until I read the opening message "[...] you have ordered your revolutionary expensive new car you enter the Tesla blackout zone."
I've got a lot to catch up on it seems. My order was placed waaaay back in March. I have a lease hire Ford that goes back on 30th July and oblivious to all this non-sence I thought I'll get my order in early and tell them I want to hold-off delivery until around then. All seemed fine, they kept automatically assigning a car to me and I kept having to remind them I'm waiting and was told it would be put on hold and to simply call 1st July to arrange my delivery.
That's where reality hit. I was told to expect it to be August or maybe even September. Having not been armed with all the context in this thread I was absolutely bemused by what I was being told. Now I'm just waiting, and hoping for some news soon.
I did have some questions for those far more knowlegeable than I though:
1. Having originally placed the order in March, does this help when it comes to assignments?
2. I've seen some people mention that their order page has an ETA on it. I don't see this anywhere. The "your order is on hold" message has been removed from my order now. Any ideas where to look?
3. What would you guess the best and worst case guess for when to expect delivery?
4. Should I expect to get assigned a car before the ship lands in the UK or after?
For context my spec is Model 3 LR in Red with Enhanced Auto Pilot + Black interior + Aero Wheels and I'm based in Bristol, UK with the order originally placed in March but put on-hold until 1st July.
Hoping to see some ships on the move soon, thanks for all your hard work in this thread
