I was told by esure you have to drive the car for 12 months before they'll quote.

Any of you collecting at Bluewater on the 12th?
Was on the phone with A-Plan (my current insurer) and they have the MY on the system but are not getting any quotes back yet from over 30 suppliers. Assume others are having the same issue with various insurance companies?

I've set up a change from my M3 to MY for the 17th March with Admiral. Did it online today. I was able to add the reg number even though there was no look up to DVLC yet. Only cost £20 for the change.
I was with Esure for the model 3. I did tell them about the issue when I called back in January. Called again a couple of weeks ago and I wasn't about to take last minute chances for todays collection since I already had a favourable quote from Admiral. Being they are unable to insure it, Im getting some money back and more importantly no cancellation charges!
I would advise anyone in the same boat to do what I did since last minute quotes are more often than not very favourable.
If the supercharger is at the collection site then probably not much point preconditioning since it takes time to do that.
In my experience, and others report this too... the logic and range calculation going on behind the scenes for preconditioning doesn't always make a positive difference. It uses lots of energy, and there are so many variables at play. Often you may find that preconditioning saves you 5-10 minutes but leaves you out of pocket a few more pennies, and sometimes you will find by doing the sums retrospectively that it cost you more money and didn't save you any time (charge speed limited on the charger side, temperature etc.)
Often taking a bit of a risk on going further to the 'next' supercharger makes more sense than preconditioning.
Did you get your delivery? I've had the same AnyVan text message about my car delivery tomorrow.
Sounds like I got some duff info from the advisor I spoke to (or things have changed in the last week or so) but good it's worked out better for you
I didn't realise until my partner pointed it out (our other car is a Model 3 so that came with it). You'll get a gen 2 mobile charger in a black bag, type 2 cable (blue) and roadside safety kit in a red bag. If any of those are missing, then ask for them at pick up. Hope helpful.
£600 as I had to up the mileage and my partner had a fault accident so that's bumped up the price a bit. Bell was a lot cheaper but I didn't want a black box and Admiral were slightly cheaper but Direct Line was a better policy. Hope helpful but so many factors at play which impact prices.
Just got my MY driver door aligned. Took an hour. Every MY I have seen so far has this issue so check yours when you get it.
I've just had a text From AnyVan - delivery between 13:00 and 17:00 tomorrow. Slightly nervous after googling and reading about damage on cars from how loaded/ moved and unhelpful/ late drivers literally dumping you a car, telling you to sign but not able to tell you what you're signing for....
Direct customer...fully paid up... collecting next Wednesday... hoping to see registration earlier so that I can notify the insurance company beforehand.
What’s the driver door issue exactly so I can check mine when it arrives? I must have missed this..
