I originally ordered without tow but they offered me tow to get it sooner. Thanks! Can't wait!!I
That seems quick! Congrats!
Only differences between our specs is the tow
This is what they have told me. Has to be done after purchase.Someone may be able to correct me, but I heard Tesla register and supply a plate with the car, then you just DVLA it after collection if you want to swap to private...
I collected yesterday from Glasgow & USB stick was plugged into the port in glovebox. The 3 showroom cars they had all them in bags on bottom of glovebox under some paperwork.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.
Ahhh man, I'm so sorry to hear that, at least you have seen your car, sat in it, and had a play (and checked it all over). Tomorrow should be an instant arrive / sign / drive!Delivery Day!
Except it isn't!
So everything was going so well, set delivery for today at Bristol at 1200.
1/2 hour before setting out I get an email from company called Smartsign, they run the e-signature thing for Tesla finance.
"We have experienced an error with the signature..." (which was done 2 days previously)
I emailed back, heard nothing, set off for Bristol which is an hour down the M5. Vile weather, fog, teeming down.
Get to the delivery carpark. Wait. Tesla lad confers with Megane, there's a problem with the contract, we're chasing it.
2 hours later, a new contract has to be sent from Amsterdam. Not happening today.
So I've seen the car, sat in the car, checked it over as much as I can in the rain.
Can't take it away.
Megane says they will sort it this afternoon and I can pick up tomorrow, we'll see. Megane did her best, not her fault.
Another hour home in the muck.
The whole Tesla buying experience is weird, this is just a bit more weirdness. I can't say I've enjoyed any of it, I hope the car makes it worthwhile.
I had a 10am collection at Bristol today, arrive and my car wasn't there....Delivery Day!

I can't tell you how dispiriting it was to drive back through the rain without collecting the car... The foul-up was in the electronic signature, for some reason it produced an error, which they failed to notice until I was about to leave to collect... their email said they would re-send 'shortley...' (sic) but they didn't. I waited 2 hours at Bristol. Megane did her best, but for reasons unknown they couldn't just send another e-signature, they have to re-submit the contract, which is only available from Holland.Ahhh man, I'm so sorry to hear that, at least you have seen your car, sat in it, and had a play (and checked it all over). Tomorrow should be an instant arrive / sign / drive!
I am gutted they had to cause such disruption by such a strange issue. Even a hand written note on a napkin is legally binding if all parties happily sign it--- so not sure why this couldn't have been used in lieu of the system being brought online tomorrow as a one off, and you simply do it electronically from home..
Oh well.... 'tis the Tesla way.
EDIT: Sorry might have misread the issue.. I guess if there's an issue with the contract itself... bah. Still. What an odd thing to happen on day of collection.
love snowy's positivity!!Ahhh man, I'm so sorry to hear that, at least you have seen your car, sat in it, and had a play (and checked it all over). Tomorrow should be an instant arrive / sign / drive!

We're all rooting for you sir. Good luck for tomorrowI can't tell you how dispiriting it was to drive back through the rain without collecting the car...

It seems to me the Tesla system is pretty slick until something goes wrong, then it's a house of cards.
I hope they get their act together tomorrow, that's the last day I can collect before I go on holiday...
Black/Black/Aero just like mine - love it I love the way the black trim and dark wheels tone in.All well and home safely in Eusian Volt. Belfast Tesla Very busy today but got some work done while waiting for the car to be cleaned. 86% charge and home with over 40 so that can’t be bad. Shout out to Taylor who was great and so calm and helpful. All the chat among customers was rising prices of Teslas and the impact on the second hand market. Looking forward now to a 100% charge and getting to grips with the technology. Parked beside my Peugeot 107 that I have been driving for the past couple of months.View attachment 781645
Ha. My 15 year old Peugeot 107 is black and doesn’t light up either! My wife’s BMW X2 lights up inside and out. Good job summer coming.Black/Black/Aero just like mine - love it I love the way the black trim and dark wheels tone in.
The only small drawback I have found is that unlike my wife's BMW X3, the door handles don't light up, so finding them in the dark can be a bit hit and miss on the black car.
P.S. Just got the name - LOL
Nope, wowz. Same here in the Maidstone area. Touchless wash incoming! (wonder how many will get out a sponge and sandpaper their lovely paint!) I already saw my neighbour sandpapering her car..View attachment 781694
Not enjoying the Sahara today…
No way, I’m in Coxheath!Nope, wowz. Same here in the Maidstone area. Touchless wash incoming! (wonder how many will get out a sponge and sandpaper their lovely paint!) I already saw my neighbour sandpapering her car..

Loaned her my Karcher...
