Just experienced a puncture ( first ever!) in the rear left tyre...nail in the middle of the tyre so repairable. I have MYLR on 19s with the supplied Hankook tyres...just to confirm these are not run flat tyres and can therefore be repaired?

As a Q3 grad, any initial thoughts on the ride comfort for the Q4 batch?

Tessories or AliExpress.

If you mean the ones linked on this thread then I would say they are good for the price, but as you say the fit is not perfect. I bought the full set including floor mats and 3x boot mats. The boot mats are not a perfect fit either but at £130 for all I am pretty happy. I would add that they do...

I haven't used voice control as much as I anticipated I would. I mainly use it for music when spontaneously thinking of a song to play, which it does pretty well ( and that would be a nightmare to do via search on the screen). The main reason for lack of use is because, to my surprise, I find...

Just did out first proper night time drive with auto high beam on and...wow...utter garbage. Constantly flashing on and off for no explicable reason, blinding other drivers, blinding pedestrians...it's the first convenience setting that I have switched straight back off. I thought it might be...

Oh and here are some pics of the car after ceramic coat. As if you aren't all too bored already of seeing white Teslas :)

Just got car back from the detailer who applied a ceramic coat. His comment ( and he is not a man prone to hyperbole!) Was that it is the best condition he has ever seen a new car in ( in terms of paintwork quality, and pre handover prep- no swirls etc). Well done Tesla! They have listened and...

Thanks and agreed. On the flipside the performance is blistering. I think the 0-60 of the golf is about 0.8 secs faster than the Tesla, but the Tesla feels quicker...I can only attribute that to the instantaneous acceleration you get in the Tesla vs the slightly laggier response from the Golf...

Collected mine today Not much to add on previous reports, car in good condition, a couple of slightly bigger panel gaps but nothing that would describe as concerning. May book in for a service, may not...Will see. The staff had parked mine alongside my favourite spec black on black so was a...

Not sure there has been any confirmation of suspension changes? I know there have been a few new owner reports of improvements vs test drive but nothing " official". I am collecting mine tomorrow so am of course hopeful that there have been improvements!

You must have just missed out on a Q3 delivery as a lot of early/ mid May orders were fulfilled this quarter. Maybe demand has slackened off since ( cost of living, MYLR price increase, introduction of cheaper MYRWD, you name it...) and production capacity has definitely increased. Console...

Looking good. Could you share a link for the chrome delete logos please

Someone posted pics in one of the threads a few days ago of the Induction replicas they had purchased from Tessories and they looked good. Aliexpress has loads of alternative wheel covers. I had already ordered the Rimetrix ones but there are now much cheaper knock offs available on Aliexpress...

No they are the 20" induction wheels

This chap has posted a great 4k mile review

I have arranged a family trip up from Newbury to see friends in Falkirk via a couple of nights in the Lake District the weekend after we get the car. Arranged just because it's nice to see friends and nothing at all to do with the fact that I get to drive the Tesla for hundreds of miles over...

I originally ordered a M3 RWD in April but changed to a MYLR after being quoted minimum 10 months for delivery of the M3 ( and also being tempted into the extra space offered by the MY). Picking up my MY Tuesday week. At the time it was a tough choice as M3 RWD £12k cheaper than MYLR. For those...

Thanks for sharing. If you want a 2nd opinion I would say that the frunk alignment doesn't look normal to me...Worth getting checked out

How about trying Evans Halshaw? They were competitive when I sold my A3 ( admittedly 4 years ago!)

Just had a look on Tesla website and for your spec it currently says Dec- Feb. So either a Q4 or Q1 delivery. Assuming coming from Shanghai ( I think Germany only producing MYs) and due to the way that Tesla manages the production/ shipping schedules, for Q4 you would most likely be looking at...

I just checked my policy with Admiral and if within first 12 months of ownership the car is written off they will replace with a new car. So GAP insurance not needed ( at least for the first year). So worth checking your policies before deciding as according to MSE most policies provide new...

Am suffering from major wheel and paint colour envy. Should have spent the extra money! Will stick the Rimetrix on to at least have black wheel covers ( though obviously not as nice as the inductions) and I do like white on black...its just that there are so many white teslas out there already...

Thanks every day is a school day! I knew about the 72 plate bit but the regional registration is news to me! So yes I will assume it is still on Sunrise.

My wife saw a lorry load of MYs being transported up the A34 this morning. The two at the back had AF72 Reg plates. Our car ( vin 448, collecting 27 Sept from Southampton) is also a AF72 reg plate. I have zero knowledge of how reg plates get batched and allocated out but does that mean our car...

I had to ring up my insurer and they added the reg at their end, as when I tried to add it myself through comparison websites or insurer website it wouldn't let me

For the tracker question, Admiral defaults to "no" if going through their online quotation system. I believe this is the case with most insurers. Someone posted a couple of days ago ( apologies can't remember who!) That they got quotes with tracker and without, and the price difference was...

Looks like the front one slides but the rear one doesn't.

Copied you and got reg text straight away. Thanks

I ordered the sliding console organiser from Tesla, Tessories does a second row console bin, the car does come with textile floor mats so if I were you I would wait until you get the car before deciding if you need any others.

Yes I had the same with Nationwide but the payment went through ok

Is Glovis Sun still a possibility for the UK? 448 Vin received 23 Aug. Invited to schedule delivery on 24 Aug and the only 3 dates offered were 27,28 and 29 Sept. My assumption all along has been Glovis Sunrise but an 11 day lag between ship arriving and me being able to collect seems long...

I am still waiting for reg. You are not alone.Details In sig.

Same, no text with reg yet but collection booked in and getting pushed for payment. So no reason to panic, although I would love the reg so I can sort insurance.

Ok perfect that's after the production line upgrade right? When are you collecting? Looking forward to your report on whether any changes!

Glovis Companion about to dock. I think that the cars on that ship will have been produced after the production line upgrade so if there are any changes then we should expect to hear about them from new owners very soon.

Thanks. I reached out on the Q2 collection thread and Utumno kindly provided the following advice: Ensure cleared funds are transferred AT LEAST 7 days before collection. Personally I paid 14 days in advance of collection. Most send a test amount to the account details to make sure the...

Hi all apologies for gatecrashing your thread but us Q3 disciples have a lot to learn from you! In terms of settling the final invoice, I have received it today, and it states that I have 3 days to settle the invoice. There is no way I can pull the funds together in 3 days, and collection isn't...

I have received my final invoice in last 12 hours or so. No text with reg yet. Final invoice states payment due 3 days after final invoice issued...I can ignore that right?!

Yes I know. I should probably have better phrased it " upgrades/ changes to spec IN ADDITION TO those previously reported from Q2."

I am happy to accept that I may be wrong! Just seems more likely that changes would happen as part of the factory upgrade. Also I have not seen any comments from people who received their MY's on the first Q3 shipment to the UK about upgrades/ changes to spec from those previously reported from...

Does anyone know when you start to " see" your assigned car in the app? Ie can see level of battery charge etc

Am sure this will push demand for Teslas to new highs. Real world range of over 200 miles more than adequate for most. Would definitely have been tempted had it been available sooner. Also if it is a LFP battery then you can charge to 100% regularly ( in fact Tesla recommends it) so that...

Mr M's car was produced pre factory upgrades, so he will have got the same spec as Q2 deliveries. The first batch of post factory upgrade cars to UK will land in Sept.

It's all very weird. When my VIN dropped on Mon night I was convinced it must be on Glovis Sunrise. But with collection date range of 27-29 Sept from Southampton maybe it is on Sun and VINs were triggered even before it left Shanghai...

I will be getting my white MY ceramic coated. Makes it so much easier to wash ( have it on my Golf R) and provides a degree of protection against superficial scratches etc ( but it's not a miracle cure...). It also makes the car super shiny if you like that look! I looked at PPF but the upfront...

I was offered 27, 28, 29 Sept for Southampton collection for a VIN that triggered overnight on Monday ( so presumably car on Glovis Sunrise). Given that all they have to do at Southampton is drive it off the ship, park it, then wipe it with a dirty cloth, I am not sure why the collection dates...

Thanks for posting, based on your post I just rang them up and will now go on the same tariff:)

So it looks like this latest VIN storm picks up remaining April orders and goes up to around mid May. And there is still time for another ship if we assume the VIN activity is related to Glovis Sunrise. So...Glovis Sun might be the saviour for more May orders ( and maybe into June?). Big if...

Nice to wake up to...I have a VIN too! LRWYHCEK8NC448XXX EDD has narrowed to 13-27 Sept. Details In sig but for ease OD 24 April, basic spec. Assume it's on Glovis Sunrise.
