Wiki UK 2021 Orders and Pending Deliveries

[DCX83]

Ours is a company lease car via Zenith and we’ve had the texts for delivery timescale and then to arrange collection (Birmingham SC 1st March)

Someone told us to double check the mobile number in your online account and once we corrected that we got the texts

Everything appears correct. Maybe it’s a later boat and not sent them yet.

I just confirmed my delivery for 5th March.

I had the choice of 3rd, 4th or 5th. Thought it would be nice to play EV roulette with the chancellor.

Just had my LRW VIN confirmed. For those tracking such things, mine is in the 1663xx range.

Seen reports that LFP batteries charge much slower (although this may change over time with software updates)...
Anyone knows of LR RHD cars coming to UK from China, come with LFP batteries or same as “old model”? Thanks.

I'm booked to pick mine up from Southampton on March 1st. I have just logged into my account and the final payment arrangements prior to delivery have now appeared. The lease contract from Tesla says you have 14 days to cancel from accepting the contract, does anyone know if this is from the pickup date or when you sign it?

I didn't think the LFP pack could fit in the LR as it wasn't as dense, doesn't the SR+ LFP pack take up similar space to the LR LG and Panasonic packs?

LR using existing LG or Panasonic NCA batteries, not LFP. LFP only in SR+

No delivery date or text yet, but via chat I just had VIN confirmation for M3 SR+, white on black, all default options.
MIC, VIN 176xxx

I order a LR late December. I am still waiting for a date from Tesla. I cant even get a VIN from them when I ask. I wish they would supply a date as I am being pestered by BMW in relation to my existing car and wet. I intend to return it.

Are they making you wait outside?

Dont know how I did that. should have said "and when I intend to return it".

Hi everybody! Super excited as ordered car yesterday and VIN matched today after speaking to Tesla chat. Seems to have been an incredibly fast process. Tesla have told me the allocated car is coming from China and en route with arrival mid Feb. Does this mean car collection will probably fall into the early March time based on what’s you’re all posting at the moment?

Yes, your car is almost certainly on one of the two boats already en route from China. See the very informative shipping thread for details.

Thank you!

Has it been established that the China made models are generally considered better manufacturing quality compared to Fremont or is this just intuition?
