Dude, give it a rest. FCA will be all over them on your behalf, no lawyers needed.

Good luck with that dude.

All this talk can be summed up simply.

Do your due diligence. Understand your risk appetite. Seek some reviews/feedback, and then make a decision.

CompareTheMarket and the likes has turned the whole insurance market into a game of find the cheapest. This isn’t necessarily a good thing. Dont be ripped off either, but definitely don’t pick an auto insurer simply based on cost.

They are the only thing that will protect you from financial ruin if you need

I never saw you as the “dude” type Gordon!

They’d find a way to wiggle out of it. Billion dollar companies always do.

Seriously, rain it in will you!!!

Can we please get back to the differences between 5.6 and 5.8 second acceleration

Sorry, I forgot a Forums sole purpose was not for meaningful debate and discussion

Is that with the 1 foot roll out included or not?

I'm so over that debate El Bandito. You're a Mexican Bandit, you'll get whatever you want. The end.

I wish I was El Bandito and could afford a Performance least I’d know what spec I was getting haha

You wouldn’t know what the 0-60 time without a 1 foot rollout is though!!

We need an I’m feeling lucky button on Tesla.com. You enter what youre willing to pay and it’s basically like a raffle.

You might get a decanter, you might get a Plaid. Either way nobody knows it’s 0-60. Or is that 0-62?

Finally got my delivery text!

Ordered early sept.
RN 16/09
Delivery text 08/11
Delivery date 02/12

I replied to the sms with my address, but didn’t get a response… is this normal?
Or do they usually reply again to confirm?

I’ve heard others say that sometimes they don’t get the replies and it doesn’t progress?

Sorry, I was meaning the looped supply will cause a delay in getting the charger installed.

Ah ok, makes sense, yeah my installer panicked when he saw my looped supply, it was a pod point and he said as we are in a WPD area (I think) they have an agreement that allows them to install without having to gain approval from them, so he still managed to install the same day

Congrats!
I've seen folks say they had two sms requests for an address, with no acknowledgement.
I think the best bet is to send the sms reply and follow up with a call to Tesla tomorrow to confirm they have you details.

We are WPD! Weird tho as my installer wouldn't install until he got confirmation from the electricity grid that my fuse didn't need to be upgraded!

I could be wrong on it being WPD but Im fairly certain it was, he also seemed to suggest it was Podpoint who have the agreement, what charger are you having installed?

 

[BevyBoy]

I ordered a Performance one, red & black. They didn't suggest any alternative spec at any stage but to be honest that's the one I want, so I have been holding out.

I really hope they have actually ordered one for Q4 somehow. I know they don't normally build-to-order. But if they are waiting for a red performance model to randomly show up in a consignment to Ireland so they can match my order against it, I think I will be waiting forever.

Yeah as far as I'm aware their ain't too many performance ones in Ireland?

Color of LR and SR+ were the reason a few people missed Sept but I think they been allocated for Dec already.

I got an Ohme Home Pro installed about a month ago (only date I could get) but was umming and ahhing between Pod Point and Ohme. In the end, not sure it matters much - the app reviews for both weren't great and the "smart charging" feature between hours is apparently built into the car anyway my installer was so good tho, managed to fit everything into my electricity meter box without drilling into the house!
