More Uk-bound Ships?

[mysp00n]

Put a M3 performance on order 1st Oct, however HATED the silver wheels and was ready to simply have these coated once it arrived. They then introduced the darker wheels so I've simply re-ordered (have two on order now..)
Neither have VINs or have had any movement other than normal order process. Will we see the dark rims in the UK this year? Still trying to work out if its worth cancelling the first although both cars still say they will be here in 'November' however as I understand it Pinocchio appears to update this section of the website - not sure how he can get close enough to the computer with a nose that big though now..

Anyone order a M3 with the dark rims?

Pinocchio hahahaha

The fact that no one has reported a VIN makes me think its just "approximately" when it leaves the canal - and is most likely when someone - somewhere - uploads a spreadsheet...

Leasing mine and found a VIN today in the source code. For a 2016 model X?

You are looking in the wrong file/document. You want to look in the product-finalize one. No placeholders in that file but lots of detritus in other files - suspect you found the shonky Model X inventory stock car. Look it up in a vin finder and have a giggle and/or worry about what's wrong with it.

the chat icon is at the bottom of the page I also had a pop up but that was during office hours about 9:30 am

Will wonders never cease? Thanks!

Nothing here yet either, sept 23rd order though so might not be on the Pioneer but I was hoping

3 months at least wait sorry to tell you

There is one in the inventory which matches my order too - Black/Black Performance +

Going to be a little annoyed if my car isn’t on one of the next boats.

Was this the Performance with the gray or silver wheels?

Pier 80 2 hours ago (some RHD in there). I believe this is for Jasper Arrow.

Better not be, Leaseplan said Oct/Nov. At the moment my current car is carrying equity but that it diminishing the longer it takes

Order to delivery in a month sounds pretty quick.

My broker originally said i'd get the car in 4-5 weeks, possibly even 2 weeks. I knew at the time that was bs. By the time I get the car (if I get it early November), I will have been waiting 3 months.

It really depends on how many orders will be cleared by the current two ships. It's possible all older orders will be cleared in one go which would make your estimate accurate. But be prepared to wait.

Did *anyone* get a VIN yesterday? (including our IE folks?)

Seems strange we've not seen any activity there yet.

 

[Cowpring]

Nope I didn't get a new VIN. Had no changes to my VIN situation since the 14th Oct when it appeared for a day and then dissapeared.

 

[Imidogen]

Same here No Vin whatsoever since 15th..have been frantically refreshing my browser since yesterday when Pioneer left the Canal.. Tesla at this point is just toying with us ...
Time to call my broker..

I don't think they will have any new info for you to be honest.

The next progression we might get will be when the Grand Dahlia arrives at Zeebrugge. I reckon we might see VIN confirmation and 7 day delivery windows then.

With all due respect, you are toying with yourself. If we didn't know about looking in the source code for hidden information, we would be none the wiser that Tesla's internal processes are constantly juggling with allocations.

Best bet is to stop looking at source code, or at least look at it less frequently. I looked every few days and yes, it was a joy to see something happening, but at no point did I ever think this was going to happen until the point we drove onto the road. A wise attitude as we had a last minute hiccup and everything changed whilst on our drive to pickup.

Spot on, they didn't have any info.

You are right..I need to pick some project, or a nice book or something... Its the urge to find some semblance or pattern in all of this.

 

[buzbe]

OK - just checked - and I've now had a VIN allocated.

I did chase my lease company earlier today - so it could be some chasing from their side has meant I've been allocated, but it could also be that I'm in the Grand Pioneer.

Ordered a P+ / White / Black Int - back on the 23rd Sept.

Anyone else now seeing a VIN?

 

[Imidogen]

I have been again assigned a VIN now after it disappearing on 15 Oct. It is different that the previous one though in the same series of 501XXX.

 

[Cowpring]

My VIN has just come back too! Mine's in the 49 range.

Let's see what happens next.

 

[buzbe]

Ok - considering that I’ve only just found how to check my VIN (I’m a lease - so my “manage” page is missing the section for VINs). It’s possible if yours disappeared that we’re all on the earlier boat...
