Model Y UK Delivery

[Sfh014]

Hi everyone, first time poster here (long term reader). Thank you all for sharing such useful info.
MY LR blue, black int., ordered back on the 22nd Oct. Had a last minute offer (which expired on the 30th Jan) to pick up on the 19th Feb in Southampton as part of their launch thing… ignored as it just wasn’t suitable for a few reasons.

Just had another sms through last night to say it’s time to schedule pick up from Bristol (preferred location) - between 26th Feb & 3rd Mar. This time went for 3rd Mar as the only day which was free… also, by the looks of things, this date will 1. likely open up more insurer options 2. Result in a 22 plate - whatever that’s worth.

Do those assumptions seem about right to you?

Folks in the store were able to unmatch my VIN and put the order on hold until April. If you need to delay, it's pretty easy to do so. The hold expires start of April automatically, or I can call and remove it earlier.

if you’re lucky there may be overspill from end of March and you’ll get something early April. If not, you may be waiting until May/June..

I stopped yesterday when they told me March.

Jealous but did they say when in March? We have a few ships on their way so should be early March, I would think.

I had been searching the source code without joy 3 times a day for about 3 weeks. Totally forgot I'd download the Tesla VIN Finder extension for chrome. Logged in to my Tesla account on Tuesday and a pop up appeared from the extension telling me the VIN. Almot spat my coffe out.

Has anyone else - specifically for the Special Collection in Anglesey - but indeed anywhere else - had their appointment time changed by Text Message in the last 24 hours?

My new ‘slot’ is now apparently from 11.30 - 12 (1/2 hour) on the 16th February. Apparently they have only 24 collections to fulfil on that day. Meaning for Me - the slot has been brought forward 6 hours. Which is fine - except Anglesey on the North tip of Wales - is a 4 hour train journey (for Me) and there are no trains from the South to the North that arrive before 2PM. - round trip Craven Arms / Shrewsbury / Chester / Holyhead - Apparently if I am not there by 12PM - the slot will be lost and I will go to the back of the Q.

So.. Train tickets booked (and paid for) lost - unless - as far as I can work out - I now go up the day before and book a hotel room somewhere (more expense) - but do I trust Tesla Customer Service not to change things round again?

The only alternative offered - cancel the slot and wait for a re-allocation sometime in March - but hey.. bonus - I will be allocated a '22 plate (who cares).

Go for the 22 and have it delivered to your local Tesla shop

So now that you have the VIN what happens next?

Just received my license plate by text!

 

[miho]

Just talked to Tesla rep to change my order and he told me that a text would be sent out on the 18th or 19th Feb regarding the allocation of a car for delivery in early to mid March. I assume this will be for the next shipment of cars that will set off from Shanghai shortly. Going to be a nail biting few weeks!

When did you place the order ? And where are you collecting from ?

oh oh that might be me. Can't wait.
Am looking at Plates For Cars - Europe's Leading Number Plate Supplier as they have nice green / EV options for license plates.

But I can’t get past entering personal details before it tells me ‘something has gone wrong’ Maybe too much traffic.

Just come off the phone with CS at Churchill, my current insurer. She can see Model Y on the system but was not able to receive a quote. The issue has been forwarded to IT and I will get a call later this afternoon.
