Just had a call from Tesla re: Collection from Duxford;
Russell informed me;
1) They aim to hand the car over to you with "at least" 100 miles range on it and asked if that would be enough, I said yes to that as I live much closer.
2) I asked about bringing the V750 along to register it on private plates from day 1 and he's going to call back. He was going to check they had technicians available to fit the plates (I have them made up already), Although I said I could fit them myself it not. Maybe they have to (legally) confirm that they are on the vehicle before hand over. Maybe they won't do it. Who knows?
3) He said there will be a presentation that lasts about half an hour. Hmmm mysterious...
4) If you've paid in full - no need to bring "proof of wire transfer".
5) No need to bring proof of insurance.
6) If you're picking up for someone else and it's been approved by Tesla by email then just need your own driving licence. They just need to make sure they are giving the car to the right person.
Thats it for now. Will update if I hear more.
UPDATE (Edit: Got a reply and a couple other useful points I forgot from the phone call added above) :
Hi,
Just had it confirmed from one of my colleagues, sorry to disappoint, we will not be able to change the plates on delivery, the V5 will arrive to you by post 5 days after delivery, you will then be able to make the change.
Regards
Russell
