The only challenge I see with a trade in's an a March delivery date is, your trade depreciates with the plate change

ah sorry - I meant the chat they set up with you via SMS once you get a VIN. You can also contact your specific sales person on email.
I am one of the ones waiting to see if I get a text after lots of people decline their collections.Anyone else leaving it until 17h50 to make a decision about whether they’re taking Tesla’s generous offer of collecting the car miles away?
I am only 1 hour from Southampton so I’m willing.

It popped up for me yesterday when I was clicking around in the Model X and Model S sections acting like I've got £100K to drop on a car! Maybe try that...
I opted for an 8am collection.. can't really imagine what "spectacular" would even look like at that time. I'm clearly way too cynical but let's just say I've set myself very low expectations so as to not be unduly disappointed.Waiting a bit to put my order in for a model Y, but enjoying the unfolding “special event” drama / build up. (Sorry some of you have had a bummer of a situation being told randomly to get your arse to the arse end of the country to pick your new wheels up) but…. You’ve got to admit there’s an oddly comedic element here which you wouldn’t get from the straight laced Germanic stealerships. Consider me emotionally invested folks, you’re treading a new path here.
P.S. please someone get some footage of this “spectacular” event in case it turns out to be like the Top Gear special where they set up an evening party to sell English made stuff in India
I can’t wait to see how they’re going to try and “dress up” some dockside in old Southampton.
Somewhere at some point in the last few weeks, some poor sod has probably been told by a marketing bod that they’ve got 2k to make a dockside look and “feel” like a “premium, futuristic” experience that owners “won’t forget” and which will encourage a “shared reaction of joy and enthusiasm”
I'm surprised you're the first to mention this. I am converting my (small) company fleet to electric and we've already taken delivery of an ID4 this tax year. It's a dilemma! All revved up with nowhere to go....
I'm not entirely sure the difference it makes, surely it more depends on the company tax year end for the business not the personal tax (6th April) as it's only a bit of BIK if you take it before the 6th April?
I don't want to be that fanboi, but if I knew I was going to meet Elon, I'd put up with the 7hr round trip...I see Elon is scheduled to be in Germany mid Feb to visit the gigafactory, perhaps he might be coming via Southampton?
100% write off against tax in year 1 - if you're making in excess of £120k profit you can buy 2 cars and pay substantially less corporation tax in that year, if your making less than that, or feel like spreading the love over 2 years it makes more sense to space the purchases out. My year end is 31/03...
I was at Tesla Gatwick for service and they have just said ”it will be spectacular“ and “well worth it” when I quizzed them on what exactly they were doing (other than handing over the car). Not convinced tho
