I'd assume that if you don't want the car when it's ready, they'll give it to the next person in line. No sense having cars sitting around when there are many people eager to take delivery. There's only so much space at service centres.
I'd hope they'd just put you back in line to get the first car off the ship that meets your September requirement.

I phoned and asked exactly this question, the answer was very clear; just go ahead and order, when the delivery team contact you [if it's too early] just tell them you need a September delivery / registration.
If you haven't ordered the chances of getting September delivery is pretty small anyway, to get delivery before is very unlikely.
Even though the Tesla website still says to expect August delivery on a car ordered today?
Just got this back looks like I've lost my car, I have sent back that i'd asked a question not made a request. If I have lost it then i will be making a request for my reservation and deposit to be refunded as I just cant be bothered anymore
Thank you for your email.
We have noted your delivery preference and will be matching you with a VIN that will be more in line with your request – please note your current Vin will be removed and re-allocated to align with the delivery timing offered.
Please let us know if there is anything we can assist with in the meantime,
Kind regards,

But I thought you couldn't take an August delivery? I'm not sure what you expected them to do?

I updated my order yesterday afternoon from a P- in black to P+ in white.
About 10 minutes later, I got the e-mail saying that my P- would be ready for delivery between 17th-24th August.
About 10 minutes after that, the VIN in my source code was gone, so they don't waste time in re-allocating cars.
It suits me to have a delay, as I'll get the 69 plate, and it gives me time to get my Zappi installed. Even though I've paid for the charger, it seems that demand has outstripped supply. I'm being told late September or October, so hopefully can get it before the car arrives.

Yes that right thats why I've now requested cancellation and asked for my £3000.00 back.
YES, I would have hoped they could be a little flexible i was willing to pay for it as it a cash purchase and it could have been registered with any plate as i would have put my personal one on straight away.
Seems a bit drastic considering they appeared to be trying to get you a car for the delivery date you actually wanted. But I can understand the frustration. So what are you ordering instead?
I have been a Range Rover Vogue Customer for years and to be honest its my favourite but I fancied a car and I was going to buy the Mod S but thought I would try the 3. Just had i missed call from Tesla so i do wonder?
I'm surprised you haven't considered a Model X coming from a RR. Drives more like a big car, but with SUV practicality. Feels a bit more premium inside than Model S too, especially with the panoramic windscreen. Model 3 obviously quite a different size class.
