    I had same issue with a car years ago, dealer put it down as incorrect band. It was the dealer who needed to fix it. At that time he had to bring the car to NCT centre to be certified on correct band. Dunno how it will work with new cars though.

    Luckily my M3 was ok. Hope you get it sorted but I’d definitely be hassling Tesla instead of revenue.

    Im very close to telling them what to do with their car now......
    I told them yesterday that I won't accept delivery if they are intending on driving the car to my house on the day.

    As I said get on to Tesla and don't let them fob you off on someone else.
    Also local motor Tax office will charge you what's on the computer as linked to the car reg. They can't change it[/quote]

    Was it Tesla dublin you contacted about this or the delivery team contact.
    Don't want to waste any more time on this Bull

    Emailed delivery and cc'd my sales guy in Dublin.
    Followed up with phone call to sales in Dublin.
    Said they would call me yesterday but never did....

    In theory you’ve the whole month of March to tax it. I’m sure they’ll sort it if they’ve a whole month. I know it’s annoying and I’d be raging but I reckon it will all work out. I definitely wouldn’t refuse the car over the tax being messed up, I just wouldn’t tax it till they’ve sorted it.

    Hi Wayne. Yea I hear you. Its not just the tax issue. A lot of things are starting to add up and annoy me about the whole process. Very amateur for a company selling "luxury" cars. Anyway let's see what this week brings..

    As annoying and as amateur as it all is, it will all be forgotten once you get behind the wheel.

    As someone who had the same poor service on the run up to getting my car I have to say I have neither forgotten nor forgiven. However I compartmentalised is as being very different the car experience.

    Well wear - they may have taken the shine off but it is still a great experience to drive away in your dream car.

    Wow I didn’t expect to see so many people having the same problem... or maybe that’s exactly what I would have expected from them by now...

    I emailed Tesla, Dublin Motor Tax office and Motor Tax Online support. I wonder who will be the first to kick the ball around.

    Was talking to a friend in China who ordered a Model Y last month and got it a few days ago. Frictionless process. Personal salesperson contact that answers any questions by WeChat (like WhatsApp). Free car cleaning / windscreen liquid top up when they use superchargers.

    Sorry about the tax guys that’s miserable.

    Can I ask please I sent an email and my account now shows a few things - no Reg yet though
    Is that RN number an internal thing?
    What documents should I have?

    Hi Geeyfds. When are you expecting delivery?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 263 ✭✭J-W


    The RN number is Tesla's internal Reservation Number.

    When you log into the website and go to MANAGE

    I now have a prepare for delivery screen.
    NEXT Steps Completed tasks
    Under next steps I have Payments page as half the screen . If you click it it gives a breakdown of my payment amounts and dates.

    Completed tasks my address and payment

    Under the icons for apple and google apps. I have booking invoice . Has been the same since day one . Doesn't show my vin.
    Under that I have registration. When I click in it's like a paper form from the tax office with my cars details

    They should have the car registered before tomorrow, so hopefully you'll get the registration this week.

    Not across the board, my tax was correct

    Mine was also correct.

    I think the fact that there are 3 people here who have a wrong tax class means that it’s not an accidental mistake - someone must have zero idea what he/she was doing... and that makes me quite worried what else they could be doing wrong...

    In fairness it may not have been Tesla's fault. Could be that Revenue put it in wrong

    The tax rate for pure EVs is the tax rate so I would not sweat it too much

    It’s an admin thing but must have something in common

    So some of the firsts RHD MIC M3s will be picked up today in the UK. Should be interesting to see/hear about quality and any possible issues. Also the LFP battery in the SR+

    I'll be watching that thread today! :)

    How many years of NCB do you have, if you don't mind me asking?

    I have 4 years 11 months NCB with my current car. If I choose 4 years NCB I get only 2 quotes from all the major insurance companies online. If I choose 5 I get a valid quote from almost all of them and they are generally in the range of 650-1000.






    30 years driving, 5 years NCB, no penalty points. They are making an issue of it being a company car, despite the assurance it will not be used for deliveries or sales calls

    When the revolution comes, the insurance companies will be one of the first to be brought to heel !!

    Tesla have a long history of hardware enabling many features in their car but without them being available unless you pony up at a later stage e.g. battery packs, heating choices like rear seats and steering wheel, auto pilot etc.
    Don't expect it but hopefully it would be a nice bonus

    Confirmed on a MIC RHD M3 LR this morning in the UK - Its on the UK Facebook Group.

    They picked up their car this morning.

    I'm guessing like the rear heated seats in the SR+, it'll cost...
