to Say this is annoying is the understatement of the century.

Id like to find a positive way to look at this- Tesla may take the hit? May not affect cars already ordered? But sadly I just don’t believe it.

Had I known this when I ordered I would probably not have gone performance.

As it's based on the actual RRP (i.e. before the grant) I think it would still be affecting the LR in any colour other than white.

Expect to see a lot of white LR's with the acceleration boost added after the fact...
 
I suppose the only way to rationalise this is to think I’ve saved money on road tax but paid more up front for the car.

pity when it’s a matter of days till I get the thing so pulling £3500 out of thin air at this point should be interesting.
 
It all depends on whether Tesla register the order on the OLEV portal at point of order.

OLEV tweeting that it applies to new orders. If already registered on the portal before midnight tonight, will get grant.

Don’t worry! It seems Tesla apply for it a few days after ordering. So we should all be okay! Unless you ordered in the last few days.

I got official notification from the Fleet Solutions Dept who said that the order was made to the supplier yesterday :(

I thought when I returned my docs to Fleet, that that was the order made :/

It is what it is though....that's what I tell the people I see at work-I need to practice what I preach :D

I ordered yesterday :(

I hope to god that with it being an inventory car they may have already registered it.

See quote below from This is Money: Budget slashes grant to buy electric cars to £3,000 | This is Money

'These changes will come into effect on orders placed on the portal after 11:59pm on 11 March and the government will continue to keep the rate of the grant under review.'
