M3 LR White/Black ordered on 24-Sep-21
I noticed the guy I chatted to earlier was a bit more chatty and got similar info as you around amount of vins already sent out, he said the first 600 vins were sent out yesterday apparently
I ordered back in July and got mine delivered at end of Sep in Dublin. I originally ordered a blue SR+ with white interior, but I never got a VIN for it. Ended up switching to a standard white with black SR+ To have a delivery confirmed.
How did you know what to order so you could definitely get delivery confirmed? I’ll try myself if I get no luck. I ordered 1st October black/black
Towards the end of the quarter keep an eye on the inventory page as cars pop up on there. If you contact Tesla they can switch your order to match those. A few people on here did that last quarter I think they had to pay another £100 deposit and did lose their free supercharger referral miles though
Really not a fan of the way Tesla does this. I personally feel like those cars should be going to people who have their orders in and are waiting.
I agree. A car the same spec as my order popped up on inventory in Glasgow last quarter but it had to be collected and paid for by 5pm the following day (last day before quarter end in fairness). I did ask if it could be shipped closer to make that possible but they said all cancelled orders have to be collected from the location they were originally intended to be collected from.
Felixstowe is a container port, Tesla use Southampton as I understand it and car loads are different berths to containers - so different issue. Felixstowe has been gridlocked for ages I just think its in the news today to try and distract from other news like the handling of the pandemic...
Yeah its slightly different. I live down the road from Felixstowe and several friends work there. The problem is a huge backlog of containers, largely empty, has filled the port over the previous weeks and months. They don't physically have space to offload more containers until the backlog subsides, and there aren't enough HGV drivers moving containers out at present. They can't see it getting better anytime soon. When vehicles are offloaded at Southampton they're processed and moved on pretty quickly so shouldn't cause us much trouble, unless they start parking containers in the car yards!
On Tesla chat today. I received an RN for my M3P through NHS fleet on September 6th. They think it will be December delivery, and it sounds like an M3P thing, not specific to my order.
Dejected. My tax bill would be smaller with November delivery, due to vagaries of the pension tax system

I'm waiting on a M3P also.
Yes, my experience chatting with Tesla support it seems that all M3Ps will be December.
Good luck to you!
