Model Y UK Delivery

[dazzap]

I emailed the CEO of Direct Line yesterday afternoon, and have just had a call from one of the senior managers on the motor team.

He said that having escalated it yesterday the team responsible for adding the Model Y onto the system tried to update it last night but that failed. He indicated that they were going to try to get it done by Monday and he would call me on Monday with an update.

He said that if it failed on Monday they would keep trying as they are aware of the urgent need to provide cover for the Model Y.

I'll post an update on Monday.

Good to know, although DL are not exactly cheap so unlikely to be the most competitive quotes unless they offer special rates for Tesla?

Seems from earlier posts, I few people have had VIN's assigned today. My VIN was assigned this morning and I now have an estimate delivery of 02 Mar - 16 March displayed in the account page (Bluewater collection). I ordered on 02 Dec white on white with gemini's

Churchill are now quoting for the model Y. They were the cheapest for me on my PM3.

DirectLine is now quoting for MY online! It is cheaper than Admiral for me!

 

[rnbetsy]

Dont know where you have read that....they start at 43k, just checked to be sure. So considerably cheaper than MY. See the screenshot.
I said 5-10k cheaper as thats for a spec that is more similar to the MY in terms of range, but still cheaper.

You have to spec everything max to hit 60k+!

Rather wait for a SR Model Y..

Not cheap is it...

Hi All. When is the MY Performance coming to UK? I have ordered one on the Octopus Scheme and they have given me a 15th March delivery date. Everything I have seen says the P is not due until mid Summer. Octo did say they bulk ordered early which might be true but I don't see how I will get one in March.

I got this through a comparison site and Admiral:

Europe are getting MYP this quarter, coming from China but the UK one seems to be TBC at this moment and the rumour is it will be made in Germany - so it will have to wait for that factory to start up.

I don't see how the lease company got an estimated delivery date of March, unless they are confused with the LR.

Yeah 850 for me vs admirals 550.

 

[Tony Hoyle]

Yeah similar difference.. DL 950, Admiral about 600.

Waiting to see if LV jump on board in the next few days.

Edit: Churchill went for the LOL quote - 1500!

£444.60 to insure your TESLA MODEL-Y LONG RANGE​

I'm a bit worried if I wait. The price will go up...

Another option is ByMiles who I currently use for my Hybrid X5. Because they can vary the insurance type based on usage of the car (vs being parked) it actually works out way cheaper than regular insurers.

I just connected to their customer service. They will be looking to enable Model Y shortly in the quote system.

Useful alternative. Bit more tech enabled option to match the tech enabled car!!

I'm as frustrated as anyone as the girl from CS on Monday told me she was checking the spec on my car and it did have a parcel shelf. The chap this morning sounded the most knowledgeable out of anyone I've spoken to, and he asked I plaster it across all the forums that all Q1 LR MY cars will not have a parcel shelf. I took that as pretty definitive.

Sigh, I got told yesterday on the phone that my Feb 15th Model Y *WILL DEFINITELY* be delivered with a parcel shelf!

That's the one thing I thought we had agreed wasn't happening. I'm picking up same day as you in Bristol. What time slot? I'm 11am.

Think around 5-10k cheaper tbh. Less range though

My wife and I were looking at the Q4 e-tron. Once we built it up to match the Model Y though (seats with memory settings, cameras all around) it actually cost more. Granted, we preferred the HUD on the windshield and interior comfort; but the lack of super charger network, shorter range, less cargo space, and rear drum brakes just added up to not be a fair trade for our interests (not to mention the significantly longer wait at the moment). Great car though still.

I have a slot at 11:00 and then again at 11:30 to collect another MY for a relative. All I know is food is included and the talk of "will be spectacular" seems to have faded....

White Y/LR/black/19 ordered 15-Oct-21, trade-in accepted 11-Jan-22, ignored 2 SMS invitations to Southampton for 19-Feb, since then heard nothing.

Feeling left out!

Likewise - identical spec and ignored the two texts. Have heard nothing since but not unhappy as I want a 22 reg and am away on holiday for first two and a half weeks in March.
