Holy Cow Batman....I've got a VIN

[-DB-]

Finally!

Lets hope it stays there!

 

[MorayEVGuy]

Same here, also hoping it doesn't disappear

 

[dazzleh]

And mine has gone

 

[Dangerous Fish]

It means nothing. I've had two different VINs. The 2nd one disappeared today.

Until you get a text/email/call with an actual delivery date, or at least a range of dates, you are no closer to getting your car than the rest of us!

 

[-DB-]

Yes I know it doesn’t guarantee anything. But still, fingers crossed!

VIN is from the 12th July batch.

Exciting stuff! However little it means in reality, it's hard not to get excited.

I wish I had the self-control of those who can read nothing into it at all!

That's just incited 100s of us to log in and check. Thereby crashing their system.

 

[MorayEVGuy]

Just had the delivery email too

Edinburgh SC between 27th August to 3rd September.

Woohoo! Congrats!

Thanks

 

[TestPilot]

Congrats you guys . I need to find a way to forget about this for a month or so, it's driving me mad

 

[MrBadger]

Not on mine.

Just phoned for update. Vins being allocated next week - they are aware of vins in 'source code' being looked at - didn't mean anything (against evidence) apparently - awaiting couple of deliveries - based upon nothing specific to go on, hopefully by end of September - got the impression that was wishful thinking. Think I'll probably put a deposit on the ID3 now they are advertising and run them in parallel at this rate - moment ID3 specs are firmed up and they are seen for real, all bets are off for the Model 3. Long range ID3 is on a par with LR AWD and advantage of SC network may slowly start being eroded.

Just received the email with a delivery range of 26 Aug to 2 Sep at Heathrow. VIN on the final invoice matches the one that has been in the source code.

 

[DELECO]

Yep VIN and Estimated Delivery Email also about friggin time

I think VW could be a serious contender, especially if they make an effort with the tech in the car (they're saying all the right things just now... we'll see). I'm impressed by the approach VW are taking, for sure.

Delivery email now received also.

The ID looks smaller. Is it in the same class? Sorry I’m being lazy and haven’t looked at it in much detail.

ID.3 is a Golf-sized car, so smaller than the Model 3.

Congrats to you @-DB- . I'll just be over here crying into my keyboard.
