I feel like a bit if a whinger. I just got a speedy email reply letting me know that my invoice issue has been re-escalated and to give 48 hours for it to appear. At least I have no need to refresh my screen until Monday now

i'm near brunswick would you happen to know the cost for PPF for just the front part of car and ceramic coating the whole car? i would call them but they closed at 4pm.
RWD models got shipped to Japan where LR customers are spitting chips because all the LR RHD cars found their way to AU customers.

Something else to think about while waiting for your car!

Mother of god look at that garage!Well, the deities have smiled upon me and the car was there to be delivered
They were quite happy for me to work through quite a long inspection list but I did not make them wait until I finished before clicking the magical delivery button. Just made myself certain that the car was the correct model, VIN and registration, and did not have gross deformities.
Was a bit pressed for time (mine not theirs) so I do not have a pile-o-pics to share. The warehouse that was looking a little empty on Wednesday for @CompleteMuppit's delivery was quite full with Model 3 and Y (perhaps 70/30 split) this morning. Perhaps 20% of the cars waiting had their hazard flashers running, which the Tesla rep said was because they needed attention before delivery (He did not elaborate on what attention). Active car detailing was going on down the end, so there's more to squeeze in.
Many more smiling faces to come in the next few days I expect

Yes but when you check Japans EDD for orders made today, it shows November - December so it’s a short wait for them and some of the LR orders from here from at least Feb or in some cases longer…

I didn't ask Final Finish what the price would be for partial PPF protection. They have different ceramic coating packages with different products. The one I am getting is full car using Gtechniq crystal ultra for $1,690, so that would be on top of any partial PPF costs. Window tinting was $620
I had some partial PPF prices from another business (Affinesse - Clayton) they quoted $1,395 for partial front PPF protection which included the side mirrors, front bumper and hood to approximately the top of the headlights. Full front protection was $2,395 which included mirrors, bumper, whole hood and front fenders. Full car PPF there was $6,995. Full car ceramic coating was $1,595 using NXTZEN. They were offerring a 10% discount for members of the Tesla owners club. Side window tint was $450 and another $450 for Roof/Rear window.
There was another place in Mornington but I don't know what I have done with the prices, they were doing only tinting and ceramic coating using Ceramic Pro anyway.

Some of us on here have been waiting longer. I am 254 days with no delivery sms or the VIN showing up on the RAV. Bit frustrated. (Although very happy for those who have received their cars even though their order, build, VIN and invoice dates were after mine)
I'm confused: Japan spews about not getting their LR orders, so Tesla sends them a big bunch of RWDs instead?
The EDD's are complete fiction. Some poeple ordering SR+ models in early June have been allocated VIN's Whilst LR models ordered in April ( when the delivery timeframe was 8 ~ 12 weeks ) are looking in askance at AU and UK customers who appear to be receiving deliveries. All swings and round-abouts anyways. It will arrive when it arrives and not a moment sooner. Dare I say it, another COVID lockdown in Shanghai could confound all of us.

Picked up my red LR today in Canberra. After my drive home I purchased the acceleration boost. Oh my goodness... I love the car. It's been a long 8 months and 2 days, but it's worth it in the end. It's going to take a while to get used to where all the controls and options are in the menus. It is an amazing car.
Don't know about the UK, but those AU customers receiving LRs and Ps now ordered as far back as November, and no later than early March.
