Yep, Finland is probably more likely, but I don't think this would be the first delivery to Finland. Was just curious if these would be delivered to Russia and if these would be the first there. Especially with the current conflict in Ukraine, I am wondering what kind of press that would receive in Russia. :smile:
 
I was really curious about this thing with the 100 cars so I called the number on the left (I do not speak German but I have managed to connect to operator who speaks English) so I told him that I am not from Germany but I’ve understood that they have 100 tesla Model S vehicles and I am definitely interested to buy one. The person responded that there is some kind of mistake.
Anyway they haven’t posted the cars but I have sense that I wasn’t the first one to call and ask for the cars.
 
From the German forum:
Google translate:
I was by the way this morning called by Tesla Netherlands. The nice lady wanted to know if I was the one who posted the message on the 100 Model S and if I still could remember the name of the Berlin colleagues what I unfortunately had to say no.

They told me definitely that the message is definitely wrong and you now try to make the caller identified.

So command back for hoax! Sorry, but I am innocent.

What are the actually registration numbers in Germany and over what time period?

Cleantechnica did a number of blog posts on the sales of EVs in various European markets. Germany had 96 registrations in the first two months of 2014. See here for the full report : http://cleantechnica.com/2014/03/15/germany-electric-car-sales-update-february-2014-sales/

Just to be complete the numbers in other European key markets (all over the first two months in 2013) : Spain 4, Italy nine (http://cleantechnica.com/2014/03/15/spain-italy-electric-car-sales-updates-february-2014-sales/); France 33 (http://cleantechnica.com/2014/03/16/france-electric-car-sales-update-february-2014-ytd-sales/); Norway 563 (Norway Electric Car Sales Update (February 2014 YTD Sales) | CleanTechnica) and finally the Netherlands 17 (Netherlands Electric Car Sales Update (February 2014 YTD Sales) | CleanTechnica)
 
Belgium seems to be the "hottest " European Model S market after Norway nowadays!

I don't have the exact numbers, but it would be nice to see them.

The only numbers I have for Belgium are total EV registrations (Link to official vehicle registrar here http://mobilit.belgium.be/nl/wegverkeer/stats/inschrijvingen/2014/ Dutch only sorry) In the first two months of 2014, a total of 223 full electric vehicles were registered in Belgium. Based on the Dutch and French numbers, I fear a large majority of those registrations were either BMW or Renault. Still, even with a market share of just 10% it would indeed make Belgium the second hottest European market for Tesla in the first two months of 2014.
 
I am expecting a big uptick in Dutch registrations in March. The number of 17 in January and February is artificially deflated because Tesla rushed to get as many Dutch cars as possible deivered in 2013 (because of a change in tax rules on January 1st; don't worry, fiscally it's still an interesting proposition to buy a Model S).
 
Slightly different link from the same site now shows 30 cars, one of which is a "Tesla Model S Karma Sport", i.e. a Fisker Karma :rolleyes:

There's a signature in there, a P85+, a wide list but mostly week equipped cars. Tesla sales in Germany are totally anemic, so my guess is these are from speculators who were expecting to make a (not really very quick) buck and are now dumping their inventory since there is no real demand.
 
I still don't understand the 0km and 1km cars. They had to be test driven after assembly, both in the US and in Europe. I suppose they maybe could reset the odometer to zero after the pack is removed for shipping in the US but they should have some mileage on them in Europe.
