Tethered means less hassle, no fumbling around in the car pulling in and out cables and plugging into charge point and then into car.
And we are back!
hoping to get eta for my Tour early next week.
I think you'll be waiting, no news on mine probably due to the chip shortage.
My guess now is that it will be end of August or Mid September, that's a hell of a wait for a car in "full production".....
I don't have a delivery date at all.
By the way, I'm not being notified of thread updates ?
Looks like we're back up and running?
Bob Flavin did a "road trip" from Portlaoise to Kilmore last week and really liked the car.
My tour is back on track for mid-September (was looking like Oct/Nov). Yippee!
I know theres a ship in Emden currently thats due to get into Dublin on Sunday. Dealer said he should have news monday or early tuesday which is why I was hoping it might be on it. But maybe not. Is your car not out of final production yet?
Took delivery on Tuesday. Delighted with it.
It's in final production for at least Two weeks but dealer had no news at all so my guess it will be weeks yet.
Nice! Wear well. Same colour as mine.
I'll wave if I see you around the county. 😊
Nice, how come? Did they find a bucketful of capacitors or whatever it is they're missing?
PS wtf is the craic with the new site...
I like that Stonewashed Blue ... looks really nice.
The site has been changed over to a new platform and due to some problems, has been off-line for a week. Missed me fix bud!!
Yeah I know its been down, but on twitter they've been promising that it would look and function much the same.
Far from it. Even though I'm posting in this thread it doesn't show in my discussions. I can't access a list of my followed threads. It's a mess.
Your followed threads are under "My Bookmarks"
And where the hell are my bookmarks lol!
Its much more familiar and easy to navigate on pc. The touch site is hard to get around alright.
Down the bottom of the page for me on mobile.
Perfect found it.
Why they have a list of most of those links in the menu button at the top, but not the bookmarks, is beyond me.
ended up buying one at the weekend, tested a Leaf last year, and an E308 a couple of weeks back, the ID3 just seemed right. Seems like I would have agonised more buying a laptop
Id thank your post only theres no option to on desktop site lol!
Well wear. Yeah we test drove a few cars but decision was made very quickly after driving ID.3 also. Did you get one in stock?
It looks like the over-the-air updates are about to happen. I got an email the other day with my VIN etc and to agree to the update... so I'm expecting the 2.3 update to magically appear any day now.
I dont care about any pricking around with the infotainment layout... they better have the charging timers fixed! 😡
I presume you have one of the 1st models?
Someone requested pic of a Scale Silver id.3 - here’s my June registered Tech spec model with 18” Derry alloys.
There must be something going on in the background because there was an option to like and separate agree button there this morning.
I've a first and got the confirmation mail with the link to accept the update last Friday. Still no sign of an update. The cars is supposed to poll the VW servers once a week for updates. I haven't seen anyone in various forums of the 1st mover Facebook group who has actually received the update.
It will contain very little of new functionality but I'm hoping it will fix my constant connection issues.
best colour by far imo.
( but we ordered moonstone grey).
Can I ask a question from people currently buying an ID3?
Is there a huge wait time, and is there a reason why dealers might not be returning my calls? I've been trying for over a month to arrange a test drive, I've been a bit casual about it (we want to upgrade before new baby arrives in November so we've felt like there's no big rush) but its the third time nobody has got back to me now, don't know if its the dealers not bothered, if this is the norm (have never considered buying a new car before) or if they're not interested in selling the id3 due to backlog. Was advised on the phone not to call in without an appointment as they're so busy.
Also, if you've seen more recent price lists: the Volkswagen website suggests pricing starting at 32k - is that miles away from what you'd actually get? We have a budget more like 30, so not sure how far we can stretch. This will be our first electric car purchase, whatever we end up with, and hopefully a car that will last us for ten years: we're really not car people and I've been finding it a bit frustrating how had it is to get basic info out of people.
On the chat function with VW currently, they've checked the commission number and confirmed that the car is in production (it was scheduled for week 29).
Can't tell me anything more though, so I still have to go back to the dealer for updates.
