Model Y UK Delivery

[scdoubleu]

Received SMS from Tesla yesterday requesting I choose a delivery date for my MY. Interestingly, they've moved delivery from the National Space Center (my preferred location, 20 minute drive from home) to the NEC (an hour's drive).

Getting some deja-vu from back in November '21 when they switched around from NEC to NSC, but our M3 collection date fell in the gap between the two locations so ended up having to collect from Birmingham St Andrews SC.

Anyone else collecting from NEC?

Have you contacted customer support? I would have firmly expected a EDD range if you ordered on day 1 for the LR.

I have and they've reiterated the mantra I should get a text in Feb for March delivery but might call again to double check

That's interesting as I was always down to collect from the National Space Centre but then it became a home delivery. NSC would have been a fairly easy train journey, NEC a nightmare.

Not s great deal. I bought a 1Tb SSD partitioned 25/75 for music and sentry mode.

Thanks for the reply;

So the 128GB records 5 mins, 10 mins an hour, or what roughly?

I was wondering the same; should I start looking for a bigger storage stick.

I read quite a lot about USB s and although they're fine you are better with an SSD for constant read/write and I have a large collection of music tracks that can only be accessed via the tesla cam usb port.

Agree that SSD is a better option - https://www.amazon.co.uk/SanDisk-SD...354400&sprefix=sandisk+1tb,aps,85&sr=8-4&th=1 or https://www.amazon.co.uk/SanDisk-Ex...jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==

Ordered on release day. Turned down 19th. Got irked not heard anything. Emailed. They said it will be delivered this quarter and will be allocated in the next five weeks. Eom.

similar to when he made white free because there were too many black Teslas on the road

That was not the case, black takes much longer to prep as it shows every tiny mark, Tesla want them out of the door fast and therefore changed to white because it's a quicker turnaround.

I am collecting from NEC on 1st. My choices were NEC or Trafford Centre. Booked my train tickets a few days ago.

If that were the case they would cover that extra time with a higher price, now in Europe black is the cheapest option beyond white, with the colours being more expensive.

It would be nice If they prepped the black cars properly, many get to their owners in a very poor state.

Same here, ordered on the 15th Oct and turned down a delivery on 19th Feb. Tesla CS told me that I will receive notification on 18th or 19th Feb for a delivery in March. We shall see!

Had a test drive in Glasgow this morning. Excited for delivery on 3rd March

For those considering SSD drives, my experience of Crucial SSDs has been good in the past and I see they do a compact 500GB drive at a very reasonable price (although it will need a USB-A to USB-C adapter): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Crucial-CT...6&hvtargid=pla-1187768801734&psc=1&th=1&psc=1

I went for a test drive this morning at Glasgow and I noticed the car had PPF on the back doors and mudflaps on I asked if the car will come with that and they said yes.Also I don't think it has the double glass on the rear doors and no parcel shelf. Also Im collecting at Southampton on the 19th February he told me Tesla are trying to brake a world record for the most cars delivered in one day
