Slightly off topic but I've ordered these Gemini Wheel covers to replace the stock ones - Makes them look like induction wheels but for a fraction of the price!!!

Hopefully they don’t scratch the alloys like the stock ones! Look great though, think I may do the same as the black looks great in contrast to the white paint.

Amazing; there must be several handover days. Please give us feed back on the experience and condition of the car.

Were those now with Staines appointments originally down for Bluewater as I was?

Actually, Staines suits me better so who am I to wonder why?
Anyone else on the 29th at Staines?

10am on the 29th

Hope you guys are enjoying their new toy. Unfortunately the wife does not like driving it in London hence thinking of selling.
What do you guys think I can achieve in a safely way.
I'm Italian and in Italy deals between privates are always tricky that's why most of the people choose dealers.
Thanks for your advice and sorry for the off topic.

When I look at the schedule for morning peace. Its crazy that it docks in Southampton on the 28th, unloads and load onto car transporters on the 29th and leaves on the 30th. Not much room for slippage seeings it's still over 2 weeks of sailing.

10am on the 29th

2:30pm. You will probably be long gone

Please post here if you have any cautionary information from your collection experience.

Thank you.

All being well, like a grey ghost! I promise to keep my mitts off any red ones I see.

Like a grey ghost in the the mists of Hertfordshire.....

Re mitts: That's OK as long as you don't drop them before or during the wash . Anyway, by all accounts, they come pre swirled

Without too much research, you have trade type options with Motorway, We Buy Any Car and Arthur Clark all of which will give you a price based on a few photos. I'm sure there are others too.

As to what you might ask/get on 'deals between privates', I'd have a look here at what other folks/dealers are asking for similar cars.

You can also get a free valuation on the RAC website; they will estimate the value of you car for both dealer and private sell based on model, year and mileage.

@HenryT Whenever I see that photo of your car, my occasional doubts regarding my choice of the Red, evaporate.

All soon to be revealed

I used wbac once but the price they give me is the list price and dealers are selling for £ 65k.
Now that deliveries are November / January 23 prices went up.

Hopefully they don't have time to give the cars the once over in the swirl department

Oh YES! Thank you for that QTim. The only red Y I have seen in the flesh was at Tesla Guildford, a left hooker in the showroom. I got in the wrong (well the right/correct) side and wondered momentarily where the wheel was.....

...and then......SWMBO, holding the steering wheel suggested that she could "....get used to this" After that, plain sailing and order placed by me. She thinks it's great value for £28K

P.S. The black wheels are starting to puncture my contra opinion of them

I quite like these.
I was going to spray mine dark grey

Are the covers pictured the matte black or matte grey ?
