Post your day one Model Y and Model 3 UK pictures

[M3P_2022]

do you mean you picked yours up in bluewater and you could see others with matching GL prefixes? or was you comparing the other 16 pages on here, i couldnt come to a conclusion when i browsed 16 pages

On Tuesday I picked my car up from Bluewater it has a GL prefix other cars that were there at the same time for collection had LE prefixes

I can't be the only one waiting for this

Thanks for your insight

A couple of questions if I may. The rattle in the door - did you figure out what that was? And did you get your wifi sorted?

Now you've had the car a few days - whats your overall feeling on it?

I've the M3 so I know that the Tesla ride can be a bit firm (could displace a loose filling in your tooth on some dodgy road surfaces tbh, but thats the local council, rather than the car to blame lol) but quite a few reviews are saying the MY is 'too' firm. Would love to hear people who have the MY in the UK express their unadulterated opinion. I don't mind the M3 on decent road surfaces, but I wouldn't want anything worse if you know what I mean. If the MY is firmer/harsher than the M3, then I'm not sure if a change to MY would be suitable for me and my family. I would defo go with 19s on it though, as I know that can help.

Hope you are all enjoying your new cars folks - I've been watching with interest but now that I'm seriously considering buying one, I thought I need to start posting and stop lurking!

I have not worked out the door rattle. I need to check the glove box today and then raise a support request I think.
I love it. But I am moving from a 16 year old car.....

Sorry the dog hasn't even left the house today with the current weather

In the grand scheme of things, its not a big deal if its easily sorted. Its the kind of thing that would annoy you if it couldn't be resolved but if its just from the door, there isn't too much to diagnose and repair in that particular area you would think. Squeaky dashboards on the otherhand, thats a different ball game. Been there, done that. If something loose goes on in there it can be a nightmare. I've had a dash off before. Went back on with not too much trouble, just a few leftover screws and whatnot lol. The car sounded worse after 'trying' a DIY fix many years ago.

Interested to know the bluewater reg plate format (first two digits) if anyone can post here (but not comfortable with posting a full pic)

Not sure if it matters that it's Bluewater, I picked mine up on Tuesday with a GL prefix and I can see other cars in the pictures with LE

I pick mine up on the 1st from Bluewater with an LF22 plate

First day pics (from 9th Feb).

It needed a wash as it was fresh of the low loader.

These blue and red cars with the white interior look fantastic! Too late for me to change now but wondering whether I should have been more adventurous when choosing the colour of mine

Yours will look superb as well.

Vinyl plates make it look even better IMHO...

I’ve ordered some but I don’t think they have green on the side. Is that a legal requirement?

Not a regal requirement to have green. They do need to be to BS AU 145e and marked as such.

Nope, just personal preference.

And again in English?

They have to conform to the legal standards. The tiny writing on the bottom right of the plates in the picture state the British Standards marking. Without it they are just show plates that cannot be used on the road.

Thanks for that. I have ordered some but have not specified anything other than the reg so hoping the legal text is standard

You did well Tom, congrats for the car and thanks for the posts, looking forward to picking my black/black/20 on Saturday 2pm in Southampton!

I am picking up my black/black/20 on Saturday 10am ... good luck

I have a M3 LR silver on order to pick up around May time in Birmingham. These pictures are making me wonder if I should change the paint scheme to blue, it looks beautiful. Would anyone be able to post a good picture of their silver?

Info on heated wipers, I think I remember hearing or reading that the heated wiper function will not be available on the car yet, though the car may have the hardware. I believe they suggested it will be released in a later software update, so will not know I guess until the option comes up. I...
