UK 2022 Orders to Delivery inc the shipping thread for posts with no shipping news

[Barnes281]

Hi all,

Long time lurker and finally placed an order yesterday (M3 SR+, MSM, black interior and Aeros) via salary sacrifice. Been very helpful reading past contributions. Question I have is whether anyone that has ordered in last few weeks with August ETA have had earlier delivery dates confirmed? Curious whether it is even a possibility (outside of checking available inventory) or whether I should just sit tight and wait until Aug...
Thanks

I was told by other owners I'll be shafted and out to the back of the queue as I now have a funeral in delivery day. Finally managed to get the chat option and be reassured that I'll be a day or two at most alternatively I can pick up from the Trafford centre on the 26th providing I give a week's notice prior to delivery date. Crisis averted

See you there. I’m picking up from Trafford centre on 26th at 10.30 time slot. Blue M3 perf, black interior. NHS salary sacrifice lease scheme as I’m a community children’s nurse. Order was placed by my lease company 5 feb. For me personally this has been smoother than when I picked up my current ICE car.

It will very much depend on if your leaseco has actually ordered the car yesterday, as the dates have now slipped to 2023 I can see above

Base Model 3 + Model 3 Long Range now showing an estimated delivery of February 2023!

quietly wonders how strong that'll help keep my LR residuals for at least this year. Maybe I'll swap again next year (should I put a cheeky deposit down..)

Genuinely considering the same thing!

Unfortunately it is still pending approval so looks like a Nov or 2023 delivery. The 19inch wheels or white interior bring it back to Aug - all signs point to spending more!

Which leasing company are they using?

novunavehiclesolutions.co.uk it was hitachi at one point but seems to have changed recently

Car charger update … tesla version 3, another electrician no showed… what is it with these guys. it’s not even a cheap quote. Fingers crossed for the next one who in fairness was the only one who has been working on EV installation.

Hey guys, been lurking for a while since the random change of dates to May - June.

I've ordered a M3 LR - black ex and black interior with aero wheels back on January 23rd.

Managed to speak to Paige, she said to keep checking inventory.

Missed out on the cars yesterday and spoke to Craig. I asked why cars go to "up for grabs page" while people have existing orders. He explained that some cars go to existing orders and some go on the page.

So I'm currently in the violin club. Hi! Lol

I definitely think Craig is new, that's clearly been the way they allocate cars for a long time but I think he's the first one to admit it rather than saying that the inventory cars are stock over and above existing orders as we've all been told in the past.

I'm in a similar position to you, same spec and suddenly bumped to May/June so it's a bit frustrating to see that suitable cars are passing though inventory without being assigned.

On the flip side I'm not in a hurry and if I'm lucky one or two of the rumoured improvements that haven't arrived in Q1 might turn up in Q2.

Anyone let me know how to get on the Tesla chat? I’ve tried a few things but never see the box come up….

 

[DIY-Trev]

With 11 days to go I got the final invoice, reg number and VIN.
Sent £1 to test the payment process. It got there but my bank couldn't verify the account name, as Citibank are not in the loop.
Switched insurers, but still paying twice as much as last year (for 7-year-old car)
Hopefully, all will go to plan on the day.

It pops up when available on the buy a car or existing inventory page. I've only ever found it on PC/Laptop not phone/tablet. The afternoon seems best.

Yeah very frustrating. What makes it worse is I joined the telegram group and there were 5 that got listed on that page with the same spec we are waiting for.

What I'm worried about is the 60 day limit on my car valuation. I'm buying the car on PCP and currently Tesla owe me £3k as the trade in was possitive against my deposit. So I feel I've been pushed back to the queue.

To make things worse my current insurance and car tax is due April.

But fingers crossed that good things come to those that wait!

So nice to see another red! Most importantly, what date did your order yours? And what is your full spec?

13th jan
Red
RWD
Aero wheels
Tesla PCP

It’s absolutely incredible, the acceleration is insane even with the slower motor

 

[DIY-Trev]

The RWD M3 is insurance group 48, the LR is 50 (the highest there is). I can't find a reference to the MY online yet, but suspect it's the same.

A 520d is group 32, so that more than explains the difference in insurance quotes.

I tried the whole list of comparison sites and Direct Line suggested on Money Saving Expert. Ended up paying £440 to Saga, slightly more than renewal with Quote Me Happy (Aviva) but they wanted a £500 excess on top of the normal one. About twice last year's premium which was to drop to £194 on renewal end March.

Everyone with RWDs - are you selecting SR+ when looking for insurance as most sites don't seem to have RWD option. Wonder if this could cause confusion in case insurance is needed to be used.

Yup, after a lengthy debate with admiral they said it’s the same car and they won’t lower the insurance based on less HP

Had a text for delivery dates between the 25th and 31st march and secured delivery on the 26th. Quite a lot of scaremongering but cannot fault the process for me personally given I ordered 25th January
