Model 3 RWD pre delivery hangout

[M3UK]

GV60’s seems in reasonable availability. The ID Buzz ….. doesn’t

The ID buzz is a 12month wait, there are a number of points driving my choice here but the main ones are how absolutely cool they look and the other is that I have got myself a used car which will last me 12months at least. If the M3 arrives in Q4 then this will go to the Mrs

I ordered the GV60 from the lease company. They've also opened up the order bookings for the ID Buzz

Very nice cars, the GV60 especially so!

I feel a little annoyed with Tesla moreso how they treated you guys with the EDD changes, then this leaves me unsure what they would do with my order

Our supplier is EDF energy - the issue I’ve got is this is the worst time to try and switch energy providers. The deals being offered are only available to those who are current customers.

Our mistake was not switching energy providers earlier, however the prices are likely going to rise to silly rates (seen some predictions of up to 75p kw by March next year).

The problem with switching earlier was their were no better deals and now the electricity companies are only providing new EV Tariffs for their own customers. Everyone was advised to stay on the variable tariff as moving would have cost more at that time.

VAT applies at time of invoice issuing.

Aaargh !

Yes. I have a booking invoice for £200 and just vehicle order agreement for the remaining amount

ooh, good point.

Aaargh !

ooh, good point.

Just glad we can trust the Tories to keep their promises W️s

 

[Utumno]

Aaargh !

ooh, good point.

Right now you actively DON’T want Tesla to officially confirm your VIN, as that means an official Tesla invoice is on its way together with its all-important VAT/tax point date.

Bonkers

I went for a Tesla loan and they issued right away an invoice for the whole amount right after the deposit invoice of £200
Guess I’m not gonna benefit of the VAT claim

I’ve got a “order agreement” which says this

2. Final Invoice: The Final Invoice will be provided to you as your delivery date nears. It will include final pricing based on your final Vehicle Configuration on and will include taxes and official or governmental fees.

I ordered through PCP if it makes any difference

That’s probably an order agreement. They can’t send an invoice until they’ve sold the goods …. and they can’t sell goods they haven’t made yet.

We may have found a positive amongst all the frustration from being shafted by tesla over and over

Now we have to rely on the tories on coming through with a promise…..

Oh that’s good then!

But I’m seriously thinking about keeping the order or not considering the rising energy prices.. I’m happy to end up with a much more expensive car and a much more expensive insurance, but also getting screwed on the charging prices would be annoying

If you're locked in at the lower price might be worth keeping the order and just selling it straight away?

But I’m sure if energy prices go that high, demand for Tesla’s is gonna be soooo low!

Even at 60p a kwh it's £36 to fully charge a RWD for 300 WLTP miles.

Compare to an ICE car that gets 40 mpg, 300 miles distance is currently £48, there's still a saving just not as much, the problem with Tesla's still isn't demand it's supply.

Get yourself on an EV tariff, stat. Locking in Octopus Go (or similar) for the next 12 months asap should be your priority to protect against that as much as possible.

I’ve sadly got to the stage of not having the excitement of checking to see if my EDD has been brought forward and replaced that feeling with the fear of checking to see if it’s been moved back further

 

[Lddex]

Ordered in February… Still no VIN! This is frustrating.

Ditto

 

[TesAJ]

Q for those in Ireland with a September delivery date, have you received your vehicle reg number yet?

I haven't. My collection date is 15th Sept.

Ireland here too. Pick up 24th September. No reg and VIN is not even showing in the account. Just got the hidden VIN and confirmed pick up day and time slot. What spec are you that you got 15th ?

Expect most are waiting for the impact of the energy Cap increases to decide if its worth paying the over the top price for a Tesla and if we should go with a cheaper ICE car for the next year or two as the price of these cars is so high it must be cancelling out the fuel savings. At least we can cancel without taking penalties.
