They seem to have lowered the price in the US by 3k , not sure if they'll do it in the UK though. IS the price before the grant or after?

I would not be at all surprised if UK LR Model Y would be 48k base (2k above 3)
At that price and spec there is zero competition. Any cursory side by side comparison would put the value on Model Y side.
Now, if you want something smaller and cheaper and a hatchback with 200+ miles... Then ID3 has a niche, a very very small one "From £38,190" - 35k after grant.
With all the downsides stated in my other post.

The only thing i'd like for the Y is a retractable parcel shelf/cover, if that was the case then the Y would be ideal for me, although i am very fond of my new 3!!

I do hope the ID3 and ID4 are a success
Tesla need the competition and much as I’m scalded by Dieselgate, at least Diess seems to be the only incumbent truly embracing electrification.

Anybody know if there are any Model Y in the UK at present. I thought I saw what was a smaller version of the MX around midday crossing the M42 Solihull junction going towards Birmingham. Only a fleeting glance hence my uncertainty but it certainly looked like a smaller version of the MX!

No official Model Ys in Europe yet - they will be made in Berlin & pricing will be dependant on a UK trade deal or not. Otherwise +10% tariff on what we would have paid (Model 3 as well if EU manufactured).
What's the tariff on Tesla's brought over from the US? I'm thinking that even if we get a 10% tariff on Berlin Tesla's would it still be cheaper than importing from the US where I assume we also have to pay import duties+VAT+whatever taxes people think of.

think that's right, USA imports do get a 10% tariff.
Berlin on a "No Deal" scenario would also have 10% tariff, but the shipping & logistic costs would be slashed.
With an EU trade Deal/zero tariff, there should be no tariffs into the UK - as long as batteries are also deemed to be made in the EU under rules of origin (this should not be an issue for GigaBerlin as batteries are also meant to be made there).
So whatever Johnson finally decides to do, I think it is unlikely UK M3/Y will come from anywhere but Berlin, but we're going to need to see a trade deal for any serious price reductions in the UK.

In some colours the model X can look smaller than, well, other model X’s.
I was looking at one last week at the Bristol SC and was convinced it was a Y but had the model X screen and seats, so definitely the X !

Shanghai doesn't make the Model Y yet, though the factory is being kitted out for it's production. Its expected to start building Ys in early 2021, though the early models will probably be for the home market, Hong Kong and Korea.
Permits and current progress continuing, Berlin will probably be on stream sometime in late 2021.
Already have a m3p but feel that a hatchback will be the car to replace it in a couple of year. The more I see the model Y, the more I feel that it will sell like hot cakes compared to the competition. Cannot wait.....
