Has a RHD prototype even been made yet? I went to Tesla here in Melbourne and they had a beautiful P90DL in the showroom, but it was LHD. (Which is illegal here). Much better looking in person and very cool, but I think even that was a pre production model, the rear spoiler was fixed (and from my understanding should be a retractable type on the P90DL, and the gap between the door and the body (inside the front fender), was unpainted bare metal.
Just come back from another test drive 6 seat MX LHD 90D on 22" in Bristol. 
I could not get any idea from the team there re vin. Orders for the mx are strong. About 1/3rd were for P100DL?
All I kept hearing was there is going to be a price increase October maybe 10% to 15%!
That is pretty steep for an already expensive car putting a fully specked 100d over £150k
Still hoping that once Q3 ends we will see more vins and production start.

Price increase wouldn't surprise me. Tesla have tended to keep their prices the same in USD terms, and the GBP/USD rate has tanked.
Fully specced is £145k before incentive. Adding 15% and taking away incentive would be £162k. A lot of cash, Bentley Bentayga territory. There is nothing that is similar to the Tesla though, the only competition is very different in many ways to it.

I also had a comprehensive chat with tesla
On Saturday the upshot being that deliveries will not start before
January 2017, they were also
Surprised to hear that a customer has already received a vin
I've got my UK RHD MX "in the production queue" - no VIN number yet, and estimated delivery still saying "Late Feb".
Quick question... when do you think I should arrange to get a charging point installed at home? Any harm in doing it ASAP?
When I contacted PodPoint they talked about installing their 7kW S7 charging point. Anyone know the pros/cons of this compared to the branded Tesla Wall Connector? All in cost for the s7 looked to be £485.
Thanks for any tips people can give

We are test driving on Friday in London. Deposit down on a P100D. Wondering if anyone has scoped out insurance costs - I did call a couple of companies at it seemed pretty steep - presume related to the cost of the car/ damage, as it would seem threat of theft is quite low ..Just come back from another test drive 6 seat MX LHD 90D on 22" in Bristol.

Has anyone found a good insurance company for Teslas?
There is a thread somewhere on this but take a look at H&L, NFU and Admiral.

Hi, I placed a reservation back in 2014. Finally opened the books and I placed the order in April. I was told September delivery, then in July I was told October, then in October I was told December. Due to the delay I was able to change my order from a p90d to a p100d.
I've been chasing again this week and I've been told February next year.
Apparently they have only built 3 rhd model x cars off the production line to date and are still working on them so unfortunately after 2 1/2 years of ordered and deposit paid and 7 months fully ordered and specified I'm still waiting. Still not even issued a vin number yet.
I ordered silver grey with black interior and grey wheels p100d
