Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[dronus]

Think about what would happen to your car during 2-3 month stay in an open yard somewhere you don’t know waiting for delivery.

Especially in ‘Lizbeff!

Also, Do you remember seeing that photo of the rear of the black m3h in adelaide that was covered in bug guts when it got offloaded from the truck? Yeoswers!

I get uncomfortable now leaving my car parked in the sun without the cabin overtemp turned on. I probsbly shouldnt be so touchy about it. The car will regulate the battery temp to keep it safe. A bit of extra heat in the cabin will just make all the pubes curl up and kill all the nits/lice/crabs

I'm wondering is this why it takes so long to deliver them? Think about scraping all that stuff from all over the car...

Maybe.
I recently drove that road from Melbourne to adelaide (ok well it was ballarat) and the front of my car didnt look that bad haha. Then again i was going forwards so my drag coefficient would have been bonza.
Makes you wonder if using a train would be any better but i guess they have their logistic reasons, plus need trucks to offload them anyway and its all moot if the DC is flat out trying to deliver.

I suspect the backlog of both M3 and MY is clogging up the DC...

Yeah maybe the owner eventually realised that Grey is a much better colour hahaha

Maybe a New bigger DC located near where the interstate rail terminal is (at keswick or mile end?).

I saw a TikTok of a delivery centre in Paris yesterday. They are pumping hundreds of cars out a day and getting as many delivered daily to their DC. Tesla doesn't seem to give a damn about Australia.

A mate of mine lives in Belgium and ordered his mid-Feb - delivered within 10 days. Built date January 2024! Meanwhile, there is me here with a M3H built in December, docked in Australia at the end of January and it is now cooking in the sun and collecting dust in Elizabeth. It's so frustrating. The lack of communication from them is probably the worst part.
