I got my text too with ML22. Countdown is on till collection on 29th.

I have 5 days left till Tesla delivers the car to my home address. However, i spoke to Craig on live chat today asking him i can pick up the car from Birmingham NEC this weekend if its possible. He saod he will let me know - im IN the BK22 Club

By the way - before you drive away try to film it inside and out. In your excitement you may not notice things like slight stains, cuts, stone chips etc. This way
a) you can make a Vlog out of it and b) you can study the film to see if there was anything you missed.

Then Tesla cannot claim the damage was done on the way back home.

ML22 gang

I was thinking what ML could stand for (apart from obvious Manchester area )
Second part of my reg gave me some idea. Money Laundering 22 LOL
See if anyone can guess second part of my reg

That's very strange, so do these cars only have 7 day warranty then instead of 4 years?

I think he meant any immediate imperfections like scratches etc - they will do it for free within 7 days from collection. Obviously the warranty/parts etc is valid for 4 years.

Hmm Zen still telling me my RWD is showing as late March early April I defo don’t believe them now as no Tesla text

When did you order?

Collected my all black RWD Model 3 this morning in Belfast. Busier than I expected, there were 25+ new Model 3/Y being prepared for collection, many not yet washed (though this was in progress on several cars) and a transporter with another 8 on it parked outside on the road with the driver trying hard to find spots to unload the cars into. TA told me they had been open since 8am (my slot was 11am) and so several cars had already gone and that they were expecting more loads next week. My own RWD had 96% charge which was a pleasant surprise. Paintwork, panel gaps, etc. all looked fine. Just home with 84% (took the long way) but have put it on charge to get to 100% as advised anyway. Going to set up the WiFi and phone app now.

Getting identical M3 next Wednesday. Delighted to see 96% charge as I have a long drive home. Bit concerned about the 100 miles to check for faults. I will be home with over 100 miles covered!

Just got my reg via SMS - happy to be a part of the GJ22 gang!

How long after getting the “your vehicle is on its way“ text and getting the reg number?

Anybody know what time the Portbury depot opens? Google maps says 10am, but I'm hoping I can rock up early and beg forgiveness

I'm collecting from Portbury on Saturday and if my memory is right I was offered a 9 am pick up (which was too early), but on that basis I think the answer is 9 am.

Now tested positive for Covid so its sat on my driveway for the next 7 days!

Commiserations. At least you made the most of of it when you were able to venture outside!

My collection experience at Bluewater.

Thought I would share my collection experience of my new Tesla today. Upon arrival I checked in at Tesla desk. Few people where ahead of me but only waited few minutes. The process was very quick, all I did is I gave them my driver's license and signed collection contract via e-sign. I was told that my app won't work as my car needs to update first and I should be able to have my car connected to the Tesla app within 24 hours. Didn't really mind that much as was excited to get my hands on a new car so not really a massive inconvenience. Was also told that I have 7 days or 100miles to report any issues that would be rectified free of charge. The battery was only 21% so needed to use supercharger, there are lots of them at Bluewater. All in all the process was quick and had no issues.
What's not so good. Th car park is really dark and honestly you do really have to drive off first to properly inspect the car. My car was dirty, there were water marks and dust everywhere. On top of that lots of swirl marks if you look at it really closely. Lots of people were cleaning their cars at the car park and somone at the supercharger complained to Tesla SA who send someone with a bucket of water and cloth to clean up the car.
Anyway, will have the car cleaned tomorrow and will take some pictures then!

I'm picking up at Bluewater next week. I thought the car park would be gloomy, but the dirty car bit is a concern - doesn't add to the experience or help with checking the car over!
How does Supercharging work without the app? Does it still link to your account for payment or is it free?

The only one that's new spec and what @Snowy77 wants! Plus it's in Dartford! So you've probably sat in inside it already lol

I actually never got a "vehicle on the way" text! Either they forgot to send it or it got lost somewhere...

I had the RN number text on Jan 3rd when I placed the order, then radio silence until March 2nd when I got the "it's time to schedule delivery" text. Yesterday I got a text asking for an update settlement letter for my trade-in, then today was the reg text.

 

[gslaw2995]

Thanks a lot

To be honest I’m not sure - just checked over quickly and then straight out for a drive

How would you tell?

See the posts a few posts back from yours, there's a new v old photo.......but basically if you have 2 reverse lights (rather than just one) they should be the new ones - can you check and post back? cheers

The supercharging was all good. I wasn't charged, not sure if it was because my app wasn't set up or because you just get complimentary charge on your first day you see the price on Tesla screen whilst charging but my app shows "zero" charging history and no payment was taken from my card.
With regards to the cars, the car park was full of teslas and new ones were coming in. I think due to the volume they just can't perfect every car and some of them are just not cleaned properly.

I had 20% when I collected. They had it on charge but they had slow ones. After downloading the software update and checking the car over and logging a service visit - there were a couple of light scratches and a chip - we drove to the super charger. The charger automatically communicated with the car and it charged my card. I didn’t get a free charge but I’m not fussed about that.
