Wow that paint looks way better than I thought it would after its travels.
Looks like Tesla didn't turn the black paint into a swirl monster when they prepped it....there's hope for not having to breakout a rotary polisher yet

It definitely needs a bit of TLC, unfortunately. The rear is quite the swirly mess!

For Bluewater, follow the signs for IMAX (yellow carpark).

There are hundreds of cars.

Just one photo ? very disappointing !

 

[Electricturk]

Nice pics anyone picked up a LR yet?

Picking mine up next Thursday 2nd from Bluewater.

 

[FlyingTimbo]

Mine tomorrow!
Heavy snow forecast tomorrow. It's going to be an adventure.

Had this from customer service re heated rears and steering wheel:

Hi Aaron,

Thank you for your email.

Although we can confirm your car will have the features you mentioned, this is still being worked on by our configuration teams, and it may still take a few days or weeks to get pushed to all our cars.

Rest assured it will, and you will get notified once this happens!

Kind regards,

Davide

So I guess patience is a virtue!

Thanks might give that a try if it doesn’t get better

Just as a matter of interest, one of mine was quite badly fogged up so I thought I was going to have to start the replacement process. Turns out I'd left a sodden towel (from a wet dog) in the boot overnight on the same side. Removed said towel and light cleared up in a couple of days and has been fine since.

Hoping now mine cleared overnight that is them sorted for good…

Just got home from a very wet Leicester after picking up my SR+. All very easy.
I was just left with the car to check it over and free to leave when I was happy.
No issues at all with the car aside from missing one car mat that I didn't spot till I got home but panel gaps and paint all were perfect (till I drove home and now it's filthy!)

 

[Limey]

Very busy at Bluewater, car looks good. Outside not clean, but can't fault the car.

No heated wheel yet.

274 miles when sliding to 100%

GF kept playing fart sounds all the time I was sorting out my bag in the frunk.

Same as me. No heated seats or wheel yet and 274 miles when sliding to 100%. Connected to wifi now so will hopefully get an update soon

Are you sure it was the car….

 

[Oxstock]

We need to do better at taking some photos lads! Especially the Bluewater crew.

10+ photos!!! Get some number plate shots.

Sloth where’s the hubs photos

 

[LeSloth]

Sloth where’s the hubs photos

He’s there and parked up but he’s not sure where the Tesla people are

@Limey is there a desk or somewhere to go? Husband said he is parked up at the Tesla Customer Collection area but he said there’s no Tesla people there

EDIT: Nevermind, he found the booth

274 miles when sliding to 100

Same here, seems 305 is WLTP and 274 is EPA range for the M3 RWD.

Be interesting to see what the real world range is.

 

[PaulMD]

Didn't get chance to take any photos of my car after I got home, and its rained pretty much since! I did take one before I got into it though... View attachment 737493

Just letting you know that plate aint legal.

Well there you have it! Got my Tesla!

40% charge, no issues, panel gaps, missing paint, etc. whipped off the aero covers within 5 minutes! Car appeared in the app all good.
Nipped to the supercharger in Fosse Park, Leicester. Charged to 95% which gave me 283mile estimated range on the screen, so I reckon it definitely has the larger 60kwh pack.
Heated rear seats and steering wheel not appeared yet, but Tesla rep at space centre said it will come in the next few days.
At 40% SOC, I did 3 timed 0-60 sprints with my mate sat in passenger seat with stopwatch. 5.3, 5.5 & 5.3, so happy that I have the “older” acceleration times too!


Overall. One happy chappy.
