Enhanced Autopilot - Extra Costs

[Discosquirrel]

I got my vin on October 6th for MX. The email said it'd be delivered late Dec-to early Jan. Then my delivery specialist emailed me last week to say it would be early Jan (even though 'my Tesla' still showing possibly Dec) however when I popped into the local branch to get a charge point they were very excited by my vin & said it should be one of the first to be delivered to store.

I've half upgraded the autopilot as those features should be in place by Dec & an extra £5k+ For the whole kit & self driving caboodle is a lot of money when there's no date in sight for when that'll be legally possible - if ever! I'm planning on having this car for a long time so paying for a further upgrade if & when that comes to fruition made the most sense to me.

When did you make your reservation?

I received the official email from tesla this week about the upgrade. I have been thinking about this and decided like others to buy the enhanced and hold off on the full autonomy till it's been approved. Yes we will pay a little more but buying a feature you can't use for perhaps a couple of years seems strange. Also as a company purchase I might want to buy another tesla before the rebate runs out in 2021 so rather buy what I can use now. Don't get me wrong if was available now I would buy it I can't wait for the time when I can tell the car where I want to go and then just go back to sleep heaven
Checking my tesla I have a new number starting 5YJ instead of the number starting RN does that mean I now have a vin number?

You have a VIN, congrats!! About 1.5 months until production starts!

E60MKF .....Yes I have a vin ok off to rob a bank It really great to know finally the uk will be getting some X's. Time to move my number plate from my old car in prep for the X. Let's hope for more news of actual productions

When did you make your reservation?

I think I paid the deposit in May & then as soon as it was possible to configure I did it straight away so I guess it would have been one of the first orders in, along with anyone else who did it on the first day.

I ordered mine in July 2016. Got in before the price rise hoping for delivery before the end of Jan to get into my company's financial year.

 

[Discosquirrel]

I'd really like mine before Xmas but i'm not confident. Mainly because the delivery expert said Jan (despite the MyTesla estimate being possible Dec) but also, did you see that thread about looking at the source code of MyTesla before VINs were issued? I got my husband to look mine up & it said Feb

Not only have they got to be shipped here from California but also I guess they need enough to send over in one go which means some people's cars could be ready & waiting for a few weeks. I don't know, maybe someone who's been through the process with the S will know for definite how it works

Do they all go to Holland and then distributed from there? If so a "small number of UK MX's" shouldn't impact the aggregate of all vehicles to Holland much

@E60MKF over the other UK Tesla official forum they have a VIN issued Oct 9 which will come off the line on Nov 7 so things are moving faster than 45 days.

I spoke to my DS today he confirmed I did in fact have a vin now and my X is scheduled to go into production on the 5th December. He expect delivery first week in February. He did comment I had been lucky as I was in the early batches. I think they are only expecting a couple deliveries before New Years.

Ah ok, so if my delivery specialist is saying Jan then she must know when it's due to go into production. I'd really have liked it before the new year, offered to drive my dad home after Xmas so he didn't have to get the train & then realised it'a going to be a squashed journey in between the kids car seats, The X will solve that!

The Model S has had the new hardware fitted to cars since 10/10

Anyone received an Enhanced car yet? Photos?

T28Yau -my hand over guy advised me.. its about ll the info i have had as there is a problem on my tesla financials (despite having email confirming all ok) which results in only 4/5 tasks complete so i see nothing on my tesla of note... real bummer when im an excited little kid waiting for his new toy..
