Model Y UK Delivery

Re rear parcel shelf… it’s the first thing removed from every hatchback I’ve ever owned! Only get put back when time to sell the car. The pull out ones in particular are a bit rubbish as you can’t really use them as a shelf.

I bet Tesla know that too!

Yes me too, if its the board type I remove the parcel shelf to the garage, and if its a roller version, its rarely used.

Do they ask for photos after providing an initial offer? I filled in the trade in form on Saturday but didn’t see anything for photos (no order placed yet)

For me, it's on the trade in form before the payment step. You enter your milage and give photos of odometer and all sides of the car.

The front glass will be laminated, it is the rear that is to also get in in the new updates.

WRT the ride, firmness is a given but the complaints are more about the unsettled ride, getting thrown about a bit side to side over an uneven surface. The M3 is prone to this and the MY could be worse due to the extra height. How did it feel to you?

There were no s bend curves that I could really test this on in the area... More rolling bends and that felt fine

I did mine on Friday night but not expecting them to review it until tomorrow. Hopeful they will do it soon though as I’m beside myself with excitement. So much so, I’ve just bought a spoiler, wheel centre caps, lug nuts and a boot liner.

Links?

It's a two step process.. they give you a provisional quote valid for 7 days then ask for photos etc. and provided they're happy they'll convert that into a firm quote. The second part can be (often is, I expect) tied into the buying process.

Was your trade in a Tesla or another car?

It wasn't a Tesla. It was a 10 year old Mercedes.

Model Y Spoiler

3 Piece Boot Liner

Center Caps

Lug Nut Covers

Didn’t even do much research. Just wanted to buy something. Which means they’re probably all rubbish.

In the queue early for a MY 20 “ wheels LR White . Currently have a Nov-19 M3 white SR+ With 38k miles . Love the M3 but do worry the SR+ Limited mileage range will start to look outdated eventually. Probably cost me £20k I assume to make the switch . £37k used M3 guesstimate vs £57k MY. When I bought my M3 at the lowest price it was ever available at I did think it was great value. I’m still t ting to convince myself the switch is worth the expenditure???

If it’s only range you’re worried about, get a M3 LR and save 5-7K or wait a little while and get one with the new batteries. Model Y only works for me because of the practicalities with 2 kids and 2 dogs otherwise it would be a M3 LR all day long.

I’ve had an update from my lease company over the weekend. They’re still quoting “early March” which ties with what others are seeing as they’ll take delivery of the car and do checks before arranging delivery to me.

Exciting. My MY is there somewhere (I hope).
One thing I note is that they all have chrome window trims. Does this get blacked out during the delivery process?

Many people ask this, they have protective covers on them.

Assuming most of those are MYs, then white is a far less popular colour than for the M3. Compare the parking shots of M3s in Wu Wa's footage from a month or two ago.

Very limited red's though which was the reason I chose red. Doesn't seem to be popular in cars generally,so should be easier to spot.

The red certainly pops on our M3, and seeing another in red is still unusual.

Wondering if any of you know how to request Tesla to register car with personalised number plate at the time of delivery as there was no option to provide details?

I read elsewhere that Tesla apply a film to protect in transit; it 'should' be blacked out on final delivery.
