Yeah you need to be able to view the order on your tesla account. Its not a bad thing if you cant view it though, you find yourself refreshing it a dozen times a day just to see if its changed

In the face of extensions to EDDs, I too have explored my options with regards to alternatives and have even visited dealers prepared to be swayed in their direction … the conclusion I have reached however is that there are essentially 3 types of vehicle out there:I hope they bring the dates forward, the mrs is getting impatient and trying to suggest we get a niro ev instead
a) non-EV
b) EV
c) Tesla
There are plenty of options available in a) and b), but there is only Tesla in option c) …

Given the price increase, I assume you locked your price in?In the face of extensions to EDDs, I too have explored my options with regards to alternatives and have even visited dealers prepared to be swayed in their direction … the conclusion I have reached however is that there are essentially 3 types of vehicle out there:

Yes, thankfully … interesting point though … because it is probably the case that c) should have probably read ‘this Tesla’. I am not entirely convinced that I would have made the same decision to purchase at the current price, i.e. I probably would have considered other EVs, including the Kia Nero EV, on affordability alone. I would have always thought that the Tesla is the more desirable though. I am glad I have one on order for sure, and will wait patiently knowing it is a good buy at the price we paid at the time of purchase.
The Tesla loan APR increase and the price increase would have been a deal breaker for me! The earlier price increase already caught us, we test drove on a Saturday, spent a week contemplating and doing all the figures, then by the time we came to order the following Saturday the price went up by £2k... doh!Yes, thankfully … interesting point though … because it is probably the case that c) should have probably read ‘this Tesla’.

Even if you changed your mind with the RWD Tesla it’s still worth buying if you ordered before the 2x price increases… reason being is you can sell the car brand new for maybe 7-10k more than you are going to pay for it.
I might be clutching at straws here but if Morning Chorus is a Tesla ship and they will only be producing M3s between 5th-18th Jul then hopefully we will see some RWDs?! Surely we are due some since we've only heard of 1x RWD being delivered in Q2?
My understanding is that they are closing Shanghai GF completely so no cars are being made. Model Y production will begin again 18/7 and Model 3 being restarted on 6/8
Doesn’t it take at least 5-6 weeks from ships leaving Shanghai to customers taking delivery in the UK? If so there is only a very small window for any model 3’s being delivered before Q3 end.
Yeah I would have heavily considered another car brand. Yeah the Tesla will absolutely hold its value. Yeah let’s keep each other sane my family are sick of me mentioning it everyday!Yes, thankfully … interesting point though … because it is probably the case that c) should have probably read ‘this Tesla’.

I thought that they were going to do it in two phases.. so whilst the Y line is being upgraded M3s will still be built. Then when Y is done they resume production and then M3 line will go down for upgrade.
16th July could potentially be filled with M3s. I'm going to remain quietly optimistic!
If they are going to be upgrading the lines does that mean there will be improvements to cars coming after the upgrade? I suppose it could also be to increase output but seems like a good time to do it.
My EDD has updated, moved 3 weeks earlier. Was Dec13 - Jan27. Now Nov25-Jan9.
