sounds like a delivery mess up maybe? How would they even have got it off the boat and onto the transporters? if bashed I’d be checking carefully for damage on the body around the wheel and possible suspension damage. Not sure if Tesla will check themselves so may be worth popping into a friendly garage if you know one to check it over?

Yeah - can get delivered on Friday, but they say I can pick up on Thursday, might just do that and ask them to put it on the ramps for me to check myself. Disappointing nonetheless.
Thanks for comment, cheers.
That’s with the 19”s that it annoyingly defaults you to - scared me for a moment it had gone up twice in a week!
MY only, you can purchase the PPF for the M3 from the Tesla shop though.
I had pretty low expectations of the delivery (collection) process and it pretty much lived down to those expectations. Others have commented on the anxiety leading up to delivery day. With the sheer volume of vehicles they are moving about and handing over things will go wrong. They don't really appear to cope well at all with orders that fall out of the normal process.
My car was not available when I arrived to collect. It was being fixed by the on-site rangers. I then had to go through some 'special' acceptance process. The result of which is that my app/account still thinks my car has not been delivered. It's showing EDD March 15-22 and will slip to 16-23 later today. They told me it would be resolved within 24hrs. Then that it could take up to 40hrs. It's been 4 days now and I still can't use the app with the car or any of the premium connectivity features.
However the car itself is utterly brilliant. I cannot think of anything else that comes close to these at the moment. The performance is outrageous and when taking it easy it's doing the equivalent of 396mpg comparing the cost of electricity with petrol. I am sure yours will be fine in the end - they do seem to not cut corners in resolving issues or defects with their vehicles. Good luck!
Collection day!! Barely slept.
I'm hoping the fact I'm collecting at a service centre (Belfast) rather than a mass delivery hub will make my experience a little better than those mentioned here. Not getting my hopes up though!

All quite correct, my M3 / MSM / 19’s now £5k more than my order on 19/02. Glad I didn’t hesitate…
Thats ridiculous really, sounds like a really simple fix for yours, software or computer system update required ‘somewhere’. Thanks for comment, had a sleep on it and realise I’ll be cutting my nose off to spite my face if I do a U-Turn. Cheers…….btw did your get the new rear light clusters?
Looks like the price has gone up for the second time in a week, another one since yesterday. The basic RWD model 3 with Aeros is now £45,990, that’s another increase of £2,000. So £3,000 more than it was a week ago.
I feel so lucky to have placed my order at just the right time, with the insane petrol prices and massive EV demand. I collect mine Friday, can’t friggin’ wait!

Now the existing inventory of <50 mile red M3LR’s with EAP are an interesting proposition. They’re over a £4k saving as long as you don’t mind a 1000 bums on your seats! Let’s see how long they last now?
Yes.
No rear laminated glass, as expected. Doesn't appear to have lowered suspension, but TBH I don't care because it rides very well and the roads round here are appalling.
Like all other M3Ps delivered in Q1, I ended up with the Panasonic 3L battery. With the benefit of hindsight and a better understanding of how the power rating is achieved, it is a good outcome. I can also see 80kWh of usable energy.

I was expecting a USB stick to be included to record dashcam and sentry footage. Should I have received one with the car? If not what's recommended?
Anyone please correct me if I'm wrong here but I believe there was a time they did ship with one and recently they stopped this. You just need a USB stick around the 128GB mark or higher ideally so you don't need to offload it too often. I think you need to format it for the car but I don't remember what the partition is that it needs. Maybe just order one from amazon or try one you have at home already and see if it works as it is.
