Tesla Model 3 - V3.0

Aph2016

Reading the Tesla owners club forum it seems the build quality is much improved. The new door cards look great. Looks to be the best time to be buying a new Model 3.

Yea it's looking good! The only think i can see is that the software is on the old pre-Christmas update so its the old UI.

Ha I’m hoping I can keep it on the old one when I get mine I think it’s much nicer than the new UI

Seems to be better. I can't get my head around the garages here though like this one looking for 44k for a 2 yr old when a new upgraded model is cheaper.

I get what lads say about the trade-in..... offered me 14k less than what a VW offered. :rolleyes:

That model SR+ has more power.

The one delivered after August last year have less powerful motors.

The model of SR+ now between the Double Glazing, Heatpump and other stuff is a fair bit slower than that model from 2 years ago simply because its heavier combined with less power output.

I haven't been given a final delivery date - all that Tesla would confirm is that Sandyford are receiving deliveries on March 2nd. Has anyone got a delivery for this week?

They are doing one batch this weekend (5th - 7th) and another batch next weekend. If you have been VIN matched, then they might just be waiting for your EV application approval or finance application approval, or they may have just used up all the slots and are waiting to see if they can get more slots in the coming days.

I'm down for delivery this Friday but no time confirmation yet.

On the motor tax issue, the Department of Transport replied today saying they can't change the tax band. They only accept modifications from the Revenue Commissioner. The best way to contact them is via the 'My Enquiry' function in the MyAccount portal.

Tesla replied as well with the same old 'we don't know what got wrong but you are on your own'... They just asked me to make a postal application and 'hopefully' the rate will be correct... They did mention that they 'tried' to contact Revenue but they haven't found a way to contact them.

Hi Sam. No point in trying to do a postal application. The car reg brings up the same incorrect details. I was in the local motor tax office this morning and they advised me not to pay and get the Garage to sort it out...
The delivery team have advised me they are looking into, it for what that's worth. I have also emailed Revenue through the My Enquiry function. I'll let you know if I hear anything back.
You might do the same if you hear anything different?

Hi Dozz, yes the Dublin motor tax office told me the same. No point sending in a postal application.

I contacted Revenue via MyEnquiry. Not sure if I selected the correct option though. Hopefully they will come back quickly.

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

Yea looks like this! SR+ Picked up in UK confirmed no option for heated steering wheel! Say its gonna be an add-on.

It's through ALD - so the info is slow to come through.

Hi did anyone else get an invoice today where the vat has increased to 23%. So I'm being charged 1300 more for my SR+. I paid in full around Feb 20 so verrry unhappy. I'm supposed to get car next Monday. I hope it's a simple mistake....

I just got my invoice as well and yes it shows an extra 1k euro. It has to be another mistake from them...

If the invoice is dated today it technically has to have a 23% vat rate on it as 1 Mar is the new Vat period.

If Tesla are going to give you the "21% price" then they have to reduce the RRP of the car so that when they add 23% it gives the same total.

If you already paid in full before 1 Mar then they should have given you an invoice earlier and not today when the vat rate went up.

I got an email back from Tesla

Hi xxxxx,



Yes you are correct, this is an admin error, please leave it with me and I will ask the operations team to amend. Thanks for flagging!



Kind regards,

Sam W

There are enough admin errors for the past month or so for me...

One of the lads on the FB Group was in the SC this morning when this arrived.

I got an invoice this morning for an extra 1,075 euro even after clarifying that my invoice yesterday was a mistake.My delivery date is next Monday, this is disappointing I must say.

Email them again i'd imagine is the best course of action here.

Most of these invoicing systems are automated, and with it being a new period for VAT with the 2% increase, it probably just came through automatically.

Aph2016

Also received it, prob just automated. I'll email just to be sure.
