Irish Delivery and Collection 2024

[Jimmyj07]

I checked my software and it says it’s up to date, I thought we’d have the matrix LED option but I don’t see it.

"Tesla is turning on the adaptive headlights in the refreshed Model 3 with the first software update of the year. So far, the 2024.2 version mainly concerns the refreshed Model 3 in Europe."

Which version of software so you have, mine days up to date but it's still 2023.12 I think

You should be able to get it. Turn on advanced in software update preferences if you want latest. On 2024.2.3 here. The setting is on the bottom of the screen for software.

Hey Jimmy, Have you tried the auto pilot yet? I didn’t really remember to try it during my test drive. I am curious how it fares on Irish roads. Is it just a glorified adaptive cruise control or a bit more than that. Also did anyone purchase advanced auto pilot?

I tried autopilot, fine on the motorway but I tried it on an N road and I had take over, it couldn’t handle the band bends.

Hey, I've not tried it yet, only used the traffic aware cruise control which is pretty good. Going for a drive tomorrow so will try out auto pilot and let you know

I think the newer version 12 is meant to be way better and uses AI trained on real drivers rather than programmed code but that's still only in early beta

View attachment 1019002View attachment 1019003swapped out the standard aero covers for these. I like the look and they will show the red caliper covers off nicely once I get those installed. Anyone else planning any mods?

Where did you purchase these? They look very slick by the way

Jimmy those covers look seriously good. I bought the smaller centre caps and individual wheel nut covers, but the hubcaps have been far more impressive looking that I thought so I haven't taken them off yet.

It was a lovely weekend playing with the new toy. Mostly getting things properly set up and learning where I can. I haven't tried autopilot yet.

Has anybody else been getting loads of thumbs up, acknowledged etc when out driving? I even got a thumbs up from a diesel Audi A4 and a Golf GTI!

Anyone with a March 1-16 delivery date heard anything on delivery dates? I confirmed that my car is on (well was on) Poseidon that docked in Zebrugge but not heard anything else since. date slipped a week from original deliver date (22nd Feb was never realistic as Poseidon wasn’t due to dock until 20th).

Jimmy can I ask you, are these full alloy wheel covers, or just the centre caps? Hard to tell from here.

I bought a set prior to delivery of the car from Amazon (wheel nut covers x20 and 4 small centre caps), and even though it said available for all Model 3's, I don't think they will fit the Highland.

* A friend who has a Model 3 and has them advised me not to be taking them off and putting back on again unnecessarily due to potentially marking the alloys, so I didn't take them off yet until I have centre caps that fit.

Hey folks, two weeks after collection and now covered 1000 kilometres, I've posted up a thread on my take so far. It's here if anybody wants to have a look. Hope everybody so far is enjoying theirs : )

My Tesla Model 3 Highland experience – 1000 kilometres and 2 weeks later (in Ireland)

So I have now driven 1000 kilometres in my two weeks of ownership so far of my Model 3 Highland. Not only is this my first Tesla, it’s also my first EV having owned a range of different high powered cars in the past, mainly BMW’s and rwd Japanese coupes. While this thread brings it down to...

Not sure about docking in Dublin but waiting for a car that docked in Zebrugge on GS Poseidon on 20th Feb. I’m told it’s on a ship to Dublin now. EED currently 14-22nd March
