Ended up being quite easy. Train from Bendigo to Southern Cross. Train from Soiuthern Cross to Springvale. Bus (902 Airport West, make sure you cross the road) that dropped me off right in front of the Tesla DC. All for $10!
Very easy process at pick up. 10am must be the earliest time you can book, as the team were in a staff meeting when I arrived about 9:45. Checked my license, took me through to where the car was, told me to have a look and play around, then guided me out when I was ready. Car was charged to 80% which I appreciated. One point to note - avoid the coffee, it's horrid.
Most importantly, made it home without any damage to myself or anyone else - I was very nervous pulling out onto a packed Springvale Rd. for the first time though! The LR is an absolute joy to drive - the acceleration is fantastic, the sound system is excellent, and once I'd worked out auto pilot and placed a bit of trust in it, I had a very nice cruise back down the Calder Hwy.
A great day all round - really hope everyone else waiting for the call from Tesla gets that pick-up day locked in ASAP - it feels like a lifetime of waiting but I promise you it's worth it. The look on my kids faces when I pulled up to get them from school this afternoon was priceless!
