Model Y UK Delivery

[robmcm]

Can you please give me the phone number of tesla you are calling. Thanks

I called today, lady said it’s unlikely given we’re a day off the end of the month. I presume any not sold in Q2 will go to replenish the demo stocks along with any rejected cars in the next few weeks.

I reckon we aren’t getting them until September anyway. There is a 2 week shutdown of the production line starting 1-July, then add on a few weeks worth of production and 1 month at sea and that’s the earliest we would get.

Saying that, if they do offer me end of Aug I would accept, as I fear otherwise it would be end of December at the earliest.

4 Days shutdown, apparently that "2 weeks" was completely wrong.

Tesla Stock Slides As Q2 Deliveries Loom; Hundreds Of Autopilot Workers Laid Off - I think the 4 days is purely when ALL the power is off to the site, but there is expected disruption over a two week period. Hoping the disruption is minimal ... ordered in Feb!

Exactly, I've given up now as they did confirm order date is kind of irrelevant when it comes to the "List" Those closest to Southampton get preference, despite potentially ordering weeks after someone else with the exact same spec, even if they're happy to travel.

What's annoying is, they could call me at 9pm tonight and I'd still be happy to collect at 7am tomorrow morning, despite a 4 hour drive.

I understand it’s a 4 day total plant shutdown, followed by a 2-week closure & upgrade of the MY and M3 lines:

All for the greater good in the end!

As with everything surrounding Tesla, who knows!

EDDs all over the place, wait times 3 times longer than advised when enticing you to add options to the car and, 2hrs to talk to Emma on chat despite the first message saying 1 Minute

After today, I'm going to put a block on this forums URL, I'm doing it within the router though so I can't be bothered to remove it each time I try and logon. I'm also going to stop following the groups on Facebook and hopefully I'll forget I've even ordered one!

Long time lurker, first time poster here.

Ordered my MYLR Blue/Black/19s/AP in mid/late May via company scheme with Zenith. Initially told of a mid-November EDD with conversations with Emma et al hinting it could be August/September (will know in July).

Already caught up in the daily madness of this thread and I've potentially got another 4.5 months. Any hints on not losing my mind?

Give up now, it's inevitable!

@beasty54 completely understand your sentiments..
just when I make peace with it, something else pops up to shake me one more time!
after tomorrows sunset, I am hoping a 2 - 3 week of lull, followed by renewed shipping speculation and the same thing all over again!
I'm not sure if I can go through it again, but I am sure I wont be able to spare myself from it.

 

[WllXM]

Same, tomorrow midnight I guess I’ll leave this forum for the better part of a month before frenzy starts again

 

[wetpanda]

Just had an email from Octopus, managed to contain my excitement that I may have been assigned my car, long enough to read that my delivery is now postponed until September

oh well I’ll continue to live vicariously through you guys and girls.

It's Tesla 'eve. Spoke to delivery driver earlier, coming at 12.00 tomorrow, feels official now, said I'd drop him off at station after. He's coming from Edinburgh from another drop-off (I'm in Midlands), car located near me though. Asked if he's done many drop offs for model Ys and he said no, usually cars are done by flat bed but these are too heavy. He asked what I thought of the car, said no idea, I'm a shoot first ask questions later person, guess I'll find out tomorrow!

Mine arrived on a flat bed

Guess he just wanted a blast in my tesla then! Will double check for stone chips and bald tyres

 

[Utumno]

So a day 1 photo (technically day 2 but 15 hours after delivery…)

As you can imagine, absolutely gutted!

Mind you, the good lady is even more gutted as she was driving it at the time…!

Zomg, such bad luck.

I don't think it'll buff out, either.

Or 'my' delivery company were playing fast and loose with the weight!

First world problems, but the model Y was on the back of a flatbed open to the elements (and stone chips etc anyway) whereas the car previous (BMW X5) came in one of those fully covered carriers and came out looking like it had just rolled off the production line immaculate.

This. I got shot down in flames suggesting it, but I remain convinced the 4 days is the full on power down, then there will be ~2 weeks of retooling once the power is back on. I appreciate this is unpopular, so bring out the ack-ack and the fast bowler if y'all like

Is this Vanarama delivery? Will be interesting to see the energy usage for his trip down!

I’ve still not heard from them about mine - starting to get a little twitchy…

I don't think i would like someone to physically drive my car to deliver it to me there are plenty of other ways to deliver!... lol
