My USB C’s all chargeI have been playing around a bit - I have the 20” and I really love them - I don’t feel it is worse than my X5 with runflats. Road noise is also similar to driving the X5 M50 - the engine was so soundproofed internally.
The interior and build is all really high quality the only rattle I hear is the car seats for kids. Exterior had minor paint scuff on driver side rear wing - but not scratches just looks like someone brushed past it.
I haven’t checked the usb-c I will have to dig out a cable and check - only ever see using the rear ones for kids as the wireless charging works fine!
The only snag I had was Spotify just said connecting without any sign in prompt. Found a YouTube video basically changed the display language from English UK to English and it worked.
I don’t hear any noise from the lack of parcel shelf, and I loved the storage back there for shopping!
Super happy with the car

Model Y UK Delivery
- Thread starter tess19
- Start date
I ask the chap yesterday about it, as I want for bike rack. However he had no idea but knows it has to come back for firmware update - there is a panel but I don’t want to yank it out and break clips etc.
Any info on the added cargo mass (payload)?Thanks for spending the time for posting; very informative and much appreciated. Another dissertation almost
Shame about the USB-C’a not working. But fantastic to hear your expert review on the glass and acoustics
Please let us know if you get anything further as this is exactly what I wanted to know for a bike rack as well.
Congrats to all those receiving their Model Y's this week! 
. I ordered mine mid November '21 and changed spec from White/Black/19's to White/Black/20's in mid Jan '22 post test drive, just called and spoken with a Tesla rep as I am not matched to any vehicle at present, all pre-delivery tasks completed and trade in approved weeks ago. The dilemma is my local Audi dealer is offering £600 more for my Q7 than the current Tesla trade in offer (which expires on 21/03/22) but Audi dealer wants it on 21/02/22. The Tesla rep told me there are 5 boats en-route with up to 5000 vehicles each (and 3 more heading to Shanghai to collect cars), delivery times could go to May/June as a result due to the unprecedented demand and 2nd hand car values are also going up and get reviewed every 60 days by Tesla (subject to mileage/condition and market demand). Apparently someone has made £2500 more on their trade in offer as a result recently. Of course he also said things could go the other way but at present the 2nd hand market is looking more positive. I do have use of 2 other cars but now undecided whether to let the Q7 go next week (will save me taxing it and MOT'ing it next month) or not as its the larger car in our home setup. Tesla cannot commit to delivery date yet and so I will kick myself if prices go up but equally if they go down

Checked my Tesla account this morning. Trade-in valuation was there for my Model S. Surprised that it was for more than motorway.co.uk suggested when I checked their website the other day.
Now my forms are all complete. Just waiting on a more precise pick up date than March 1-15. And wondering with all those blue Ys before how many red ones I'll see at the Trafford centre when I go.
Insurance for the Model Y looks like it is only £100 more than for my Model S.

Blue with Inductions is what I've gone for, really happy with that choice after seeing this one

cancel the trade in and redo the trade in see how it goes. I saw this approach the other day and I recevied £1000 more trade in valueCongrats to all those receiving their Model Y's this week!
unfortunately I don't have the option on the website or app to cancel trade-in as I accepted it weeks ago only to be offered slightly more by Audi, all I can see are a list of completed tasks and trade in value. How would I go about doing this?

same for me, you will have to call tesla to cancel the trade in and then call them few days later again to enable the trade in. You dont even need to upload new photos.
ok thanks, I did try the trade in option under Menu which gives you an indicative estimate and its a few thousand pounds lower than current firm offer so unsure to whether to cancel it formerly and re-apply it in case it goes down

Ok, so brief post delivery update from Duxford:
Jaffa cakes
Parcel shelf
Rain
PPF on rear near wheels
Free (Tesla?) Umbrella in boot
Acoustic rear glass (not double glazed but the expected thin second acoustic layer)
Charge: 217 miles range showed on mine
Battery: I asked and they said its 75Kw’s but I’m not 100% convinced.
Rear USB-C’s: didn’t work when I plugged my cable in to my iphone - BUT I called them over and he explained you need an ‘certified APPLE’ compatible cable ! He plugged his in and it worked, it’s only a cable thing - so v happy
Paint: all seems good
Cleanliness inside
Defects: none
Additionally;
20” induction wheels - went over multiple large potholes on way home; no booming or thudding, ride was excellent very quiet !
Ride: didn’t seem overly firm - normal.
Parcel shelf - all windows are blacked out in the rear quarter with a very dark tint, so you car hardly see what’s in there without a torch. (And it was quite sunny). You can see in when very close up - just. (cover with a blanket if worried or buy the aftermarket parcel shelf or stick it in the lower trunk.)
Software update takes 25 mins.
Any more questions I’ll try answer later when I’ve figured out how to work all the gizmo’s.
Very pleased. Excellent car. Off for a spin now…
