You will need to get someone to take delivery of the car for you or your order will be cancelled.

That seems a bit extreme. Isn't there an option to delay delivery by a couple of weeks?
It does seem that way. "Did you remember to untick the 9-12 months and Feb23 to May23 EDD orders?"... "Uh-oh...."

You have 7 days from their advised delivery date to take delivery, otherwise it's going to be cancelled and you loose your deposit as well. That's what i have been told by a Tesla Rep at the Dealership. You can have someone take delivery for you but i wouldn't want to do that.
I read somewhere that they won't do it if you have already paid in full, but i wouldn't rely on that.

Cheers buddy for the explanation. knowing my luck, the 7 day delivery window will end up being squarely with my 2 week holiday.
Just wanted to say my vote for best username on this forum goes to @ImStillHereAww. Dude, that name gives me hilarious Simpsons-esque visuals every time I see it, so thank you.

That 7 day allowance comes from you order agreement:
"Delivery. We will notify you of when we expect your Vehicle to be ready for delivery at your local Tesla Delivery Centre, or other location as we may agree to. You agree to schedule and take delivery of your Vehicle within one week of this date."
So they are required to allow you that one week.
I don't know of any place that would hold a product for any longer than a few days. For example, a store might hold a pair shoes for a few days. It makes sense that it would be not at all for a car, especially when there are a lot being delivered and they need to coordinate pick ups.
But it does seem unfair with the delays in deliveries and poor communications.
Long time lurker first time poster. Just got my Tesla Vision prompt this morning!! Ordered 3 April M3 RWD Blue/Black. I was one of those where 6-9 months changes to Dec-Jan a few days back. Now, it shows estimated delivery of 11-25 Dec .
Checked online but no mention of novated lease bill having passed. Is this correct? I suppose I'll just pay it outright in instalments (due bank transfer limits) over the next few days to avoid delays with delivery. Not sure if I can retrospectively do a novated lease.
I drive about 50km a day and have a 6.6kW solar panel system with a good amount of excess output in the daytime. Planning to rely as much as possible on solar to charge my car. Hence, figured getting one the 10amp sockets in my garage changed to 15amp might be the best option to get the extra speed while remaining within the limits of my solar production. What did you guys think?

Driving 50km a day could just use the 10amp charger. Try it first before paying to get 15amp circuit. Your solar system size is more than adequate too.
Last I checked Senator Pocock and The Greens are doing a review of the legislation.
My employer’s novated lease company (Custom Fleet) aren’t willing draw up a contract for a tax exemption that’s not passed in to law, so I’m out of luck, but others have reported firms that are willing to make it happen. Best to check with yours and find out.
Given VINs are being assigned now to Perth customers, any ideas which vessel they are on? If you’ve received the invoice (which for me came a couple of days after the “vision prompt” message) what’s the build date listed there?
I’d be keen to find out what stage of the shipping these VINs are assigned at. The build date should shed some light on this.
Oh and please feel free to add or update your details to the spreadsheet, if you’re willing to share it all publicly

You can retrospectively get the novated leasing company to form an agreement. It's sort of like a money loan with more steps, and financially much worse off for you.
Even with an FBT exemption the types of offers I was getting for a novated lease was not worthwhile when I compared with drawing off from my home loan. Normally with petrol cars you package in the petrol and servicing to make it more worthwhile- but you keep those costs low anyway.
