I think Model Y's can be delivered from Berlin as Berlin is fully operational. On the other side, M3 will be coming from Shanghai, so those ordered are being affected.

UK 2022 Orders to Delivery inc the shipping thread for posts with no shipping news
- Thread starter GeorgeSymonds
- Start date
Alternatively they are able to start pumping out 1000+ cars from the opening day and have a boat which will be making delivery to UK shores within the next 4-5 weeks.
I expected some confusing times with delivery dates but this is my week so far. Monday April 11th, paid deposit on an M3 RWD white aero wheels, basic model with website delivery estimate of February 2023. I thought, what with inflation etc I had better get my order in and fix the price..Downloaded app and estimated delivery was, as expected, February. On to Tuesday. The app reported an estimated delivery date of June 13th to June 30th. This was a shock.. a very nice shock but meant I had to start considering part exchange and so on, the payment method I chose was bank transfer. So first had to admit to my better half what I had gone and done a LOT earlier than planned !! I think I got away with it, but with the warning I was only allowed to mention Tesla ONCE a.day. Whether this allowance was transferrable to the next day or if it expired at midnight I didnt find out.. anyway… Yesterday, Sunday 17 April, while showing the estimated delivery date to a friend it magically changed right in front of me.. back to February.. Can anyone make any sense of this for me ? I can‘t see how it can suddenly just add another eight months. Is that not very extreme ..??

As I type this reply on Monday morning. There are no ships sailing to the UK and the factory aren’t producing cars. Whatever your expected date states on your account ignore as it’s pure fabrication at this point. If the factory opened today the earliest with a tail wind you would take delivery would be early June. No one but no one will receive a delivery in May sorry
The factory reopened today, it’s closer to Tuesday now in Shanghai. Let’s see what actually happens as no one knows with certainty when cars will appear. I suspect they already have cars built and will be able to move those onto ships with some more Ys and 3s. I think with so many Ys with mid-May deliveries indicated we may see a ship coming out this week or next. For the 3s a week or 2 after.
There’s literally no benefit to Tesla “fabricating” EDD. If anything it will cause them more work with more calls / customer complaints re - missed estimated delivery dates.
I tend to believe Tesla has more intel on their delivery dates than randoms on forums. Unless you work for Tesla of course…
Reports on Twitter it reopened late afternoon with cleaning and sleeping arrangements made.

I don’t work for Tesla, however this is my 3rd Tesla order and I have endured every scenario possible. Through my experience and knowledge I have gained with Tesla over the last 4 years. My view is no one will take a delivery of a Tesla until the very earliest in June that’s if the factory opens up soon. Fingers crossed

And that would help how?Don't misunderstand me; they are a great bunch and do their utmost to be helpful but....
My EDD still reporting 12-30 June. If that date remains the same over the coming weeks with GF Shanghai resuming some operations, hopefully that will be indicative of them being more confident that they will be able to achieve that date.
Of course, it could change at any point up until the week of delivery so I will continue to be hopefully optimistic but (mildly) prepared for disappointment.
Will also be watching the shipping thread like a hawk. The next major milestone will of course be the VIN allocation. Can’t wait!
