Yeah I was surprised as well! I did order an ‘inventory model’ and had the VIN in my first booking invoice (the one generated straightaway). Given the VIN appears early 321*** may just have got lucky with one that was already en route… customer service on the chat wouldn’t comment on which ship it was on

My SA told me I couldn’t order one of those inventory blues because it was a website mistake and they were all allocated to others. I was also concerned that being inventory I might get a 21 plate instead of a 71 plate. I really don’t think they are in total control of their order process. Good luck with yours.

Got my text this morning. My VIN is 334xxx (via source code, nothing from Tesla). Ordered on 23rd July.
Order process is most likely primarily algorithmic with human manual input coming at a secondary stage of the process
Sorry for this dum question but what is this source code you guys go on about and how do i get my hand on it?
When logged in to your Tesla account on a desktop PC, view your reservation details right click on the page and choose “show source code” or words to that effect, and then search for “LRW”.
Or install this..

You need to search LRW instead of 5YJ.

I am expected to take delivery in Rome, Italy, arount Sep 15th (conservative, on their part). I convinced my delivery specialist to tell me my Model Y is expected in Italy (not necessarily at Rome Tesla Store) on Sep. 10th.
I am guessing my car may be on Lake Geneva, Zeebrugge on Sep. 3rd. Do you guys think it would make sense?
Glovis Summit (Zee Aug 25th)
Glovis Companion (Zee Sep 2)
are also an option. But, I *think* my contact at Rome Tesla Store mentioned it is not on a Glovis ans he was going through their records and thinking out loud at the phone.
What do you guys think?
BTW, *amazing* fun thread, and thank you @mrmiserable for so much work and all the good and valuable info!
P.S.: fun story: I have been following the Glovis Summit which arrived to Zeebrugge on Aug 15th, only to discover today that the Model Y originally assigned to me was part of a lot that Telsa re-destined to the local Chineese market, "last minute". So, it never left Shanghai. This change was reflected in a VIN change I detected in August, but, at the time, did not know what it meant and naively assumed my new unit was still on the Glovis Summit.
I reserved my MY on the Unveil Day in March 2019, so I was quite sure I'd receive it *this* week, being among the first in EU.
Not the case. So, here I am again hunting for cargo ships with all of you guys.

Quick question for anyone knowledgeable or with a rough idea.
I ordered 9th August and like all else, am super impatient.
from what I’ve read here if I haven’t got a VIN assigned yet I will be lucky to have it delivered in September. Is that accurate?
estimate at time of order said September but as I understand this isn’t always anywhere near accurate!

thanks. Not sure when the VIN actually appeared but probably best to assume I'm on that ship rather than hope for one of the earliest. is that still likely for september delivery would you have thought? if it helps, I'm based in essex for pickup at bluewater.
trying to find out as need to cancel current lease car / free up funds, apply for finance etc and want to do it at most sensible time!

Tesla will move heaven and earth to get all current stock delivered by end of Sept so I would say you’ll get it by then
Mr H

It’s all educated guesses depending on VIN assignment, delivery date etc although sometimes Tesla do spill the beans
Afternoon All,
any updates on the Grand Ruby? The Captain needs to step on it, the wait is distracting me from life.
