Do you have to take it to a Service Centre or do they send someone out?Mine got delivered on Thursday and mines in black so shows the swirls and there are some quite bad ones to be honest so put I through as a service on the app and had this back from Tesla the same day!!!
Service so far seems pretty good

I did attach 4 or 5 photos along with the message and complaint about the paint work, mine were mostly on the bonnetThanks! I will have to do the same as soon as it shows up in my app. I’ve given it a proper clean but it needs paint correction.

What do you do about panel gaps - can they fix them or do you have to live with it or reject the car?Joined the AF22 club at Southampton this afternoon. The interior had a couple of minor scuffs, while the exterior had a small panel gap issue. There were some scratches or scuffs on the aeros but a light polish seemed to do the trick. 26% charge. Staff were very busy but very nice with it. Free Jaffa cakes in the frunk of a static Model Y was a bizarre but welcome touch. Would have loved a coffee but it was a Nespresso pod thing or similar; call us earnest but we don’t do pods for sustainability reasons.
This is our first Tesla and we’d test-driven only a M3 LR. Previous cars were a Leaf and a Volvo S90; an Ionic 5 will join the Tesla shortly. The drive home was always going to be interesting then, in terms of how we’d react to the new car. The ride was slightly firm over very poor surfaces for my tastes but acceptable-to-good on most roads. The cabin was quiet, with some tyre rumble but not to an intrusive degree. I’d say that the general airiness, simplicity and style of the cabin exceeded expectations. Performance on this humble RWD was really impressive; can’t imagine how we could need anything more than that but I guess it depends what you’re used to. Our young children loved it, which is the main thing of course. ‘Are you sure we’re allowed to keep it, Daddy?’…
When you book the service through the app it gave me a choice of eithera mobile call out or book at a service centre, luckily I only live about 6 miles from my local one so rather take it in..Do you have to take it to a Service Centre or do they send someone out?
Thanks - nice to know - I'm 38 miles away - so I may go for the mobile call (unless I need a driving fix!)When you book the service through the app it gave me a choice of eithera mobile call out or book at a service centre, luckily I only live about 6 miles from my local one so rather take it in..
Yes,Anyone else in the WN22 club?
Going to be a long two weeks, especially now I have my charger installed and insurance sorted!
Great time to be joining the Tesla club with fuel costs and even the car costs shooting up. All I need now is my existing car to go up value in the next two weeks but I don’t think I will get that lucky.
Depends on which panel, but typically Tesla will adjust.What do you do about panel gaps - can they fix them or do you have to live with it or reject the car?
Nice pic! Yes ours looked like it had been washed with a dirty rag, it’s booked in for paint correction and ceramic coating locally but we found a small dent on the passenger rear door!! So done the service things and waiting to hear, it’s a 2+ hour round trip for us to dartford Tesla so annoying!!Thanks! I will have to do the same as soon as it shows up in my app. I’ve given it a proper clean but it needs paint correction.

I'm into quick cars (have a mapped BMW M140i and a Caterham at the moment), it's not so much the acceleration of the Tesla I love, but more the fact that you can instantly get it by putting your foot down in *any* situation at any time, and you don't need a roar of engine noise and everyone then looks at you to see where the idiot is. In a 3L petrol BMW you need to change down, then floor it, then wait for the turbo to spool up, which can easily be 2 seconds after you decided you want to accelerate quickly, then you've got a straight 6 roaring out the exhaust. The Tesla is just instant and silent - I love it.- I have the RWD and wow, it is quick. If you're coming from a 2 or even 3l diesel BMW you will not be disappointed. Perfectly quick enough!
I’m 10am, will be there before that for sure!!!Yes,
we collected from Portbury on Wednesday!
Interesting that the lease company was holding it back. I can only deal with my broker at the moment, though they don’t seem to forthcoming with any updates.Might be of interest to other company car lease buyers....
- Ordered 26th Jan via LeaseCo
- RN number 27th Jan, estimated March fulfilment
- No order or anything to show I was waiting in the Tesla Account
- Waited patiently until end of Feb, called Tesla and they said May delivery
- Chased again to discover the LeaseCo had requested the May date
- More phone calls, discover the leaseCo batches orders up by ship estimated arrival date
- Got LeaseCo to release the 'hold', Tesla matched with inventory car same day
- VIN + Reg provided over next 48hrs
- Collected today from Portbury!
- They needed Driving Licence
- Car appeared in the mobile app 10 seconds after I accepted the delivery and signed

looks great, have been reading your posts along the way and can sense your excitement. Enjoy your new toy!Arrived safe and sound. Love it!!!View attachment 779896
I can only speak for myself, but mine appeared immediately and confirmed my end. Whole process from start to confirmation took about 2 minutes.Just a quick one for those who have done PCH, Tesla sent a SMS update on Thursday morning to tell me to check my finance docs that would be on my account later that day. Still not appeared. Is this normal, collecting the car on Tuesday?
