Norwich Service Centre, where?

Try this!!!

That would be great, only 7 minutes from my house! Been used to going to the complete opposite side of Norwich for BMW service the past 15+ years!

I looked the planning application up on the City Council website. That‘s really good news.
it’s a 15 mile trip but way better than a 100miles to Chelmsford!

following this with interest, looks like 13 superchargers in total. Formal planning permission was uploaded to the planning portal today, with no pre-commencement conditions, so i suspect we'll see progress on site in the coming weeks.

Very happy that this is progressing.

Most amusingly it’s right next to the garage run by the most EV-hating man I know. That’s really going to sting.

It’s on the Norwich ring road, but not a great place for Superchargers really - not that Norfolk gets a lot of passing trade. I think the ones at Gridserve in Thorpe will get a lot more use.

Some informative details in that site plan - including a Supercharger Lounge and 13 Supercharger bays (in addition to the wall chargers for the service section).

I also had a look and found two planning applications for a Tesla Service Centre at 79 Mile Cross Lane, one of which (21/01218/A) has a similar site layout map to that posted above but not including the supercharger bays. @SB61 is the plan including superchargers now part of a formal planning application?

Not sure whether they are included.

Constitution Motors (Mitsubishi Motors), Subaru new sales and Mitsubishi after-care moved location away from adjacent to where the new Tesla Norwich SC will likely be at the Sept/Oct cross-over period (27th Sept to 1st Oct), to a new site at 215b Woodcote Road. So I guess that's what you have to do if hating EVs. Also makes sense to not lose any existing customers to the shiny new thing next door, to them at least.

Thankfully I didn't feel any desire to switch to Mercedes when last at the Chelmsford SC, but did notice their bigger showroom. Hopefully not the same in the other direction.

Anyone been past the site at Mile Cross Lane lately and spotted any progress?

 

[MXVConway]

Went past late yesterday and nothing yet. its all cleared out and no sign of the Kia brand as such, but no progress yet either. I'd be very surprised to see anything open this side of Christmas now.

The Holden Kia company info posted on Google claims it’s still open until 1st November, so it looks like that's the hand-over date after existing occupant restores the building state to original. The Tesla SC customisations due to happen after that, mostly repainting car park lines, some secure fencing/gates, the canopy if they go ahead with that, the new lit/unlit branding, some extra glass frontage and the power supply upgrade.

HelLo. I had my wife’s BMW services today at Insscape. BMW in Norwich. I was speaking to the service lady. She said a few staff members have left to join Tesla. Apparently going next to where the new Porsche dealer is!?!?

Hi
No it isnt its the Kia garage as stated above, I had ranger out fixing my car (from Chelmsford) a week back and he confirmed that staff including mobile ranger for Norwich branch at Kia have already been taken on and doing training courses.

 

[Whisker]

Checking the Tesla map and also drove passed a few times, not knowing what it is, confirmed there is a site GridServe at Postwick, its been slow in development, but looks like that is where the SuC and SC will be

 

[Dilly]

SC will be at old Kia site on Mile Cross Lane

I might recognise some of them when I go in then!

I suspect the Norwich mobile service parts store may be based out of one of the White Lodge Business Park units (12 to 19) near the Porsche Centre.

Hi
As posted several times - the Kia garage on Milecross lane 100%

This is great news, I work only about 1/2 a mile away from there, so will be a great back up to home charging if needed and also sooo much closer for them services/recalls
