Very common problem on the model 3. So,times the SC fix it under warranty as it shouldn’t just fail.
It's probably not a failed item to be fair...more like some of those clown feeted kids of mine getting in and kicking it!!
as expected, with the push in May/June ahead of the price hike, and the next deliveries due later this month, there were literally zero new Tesla registrations in July.
All delivered and sold for end of quarter, nothing new there! Should be another spike in September 🙂
But sure no one is adding FSD to the order, just paying it after delivery to avoid the VRT
People still are ordering with EAP or FSD at time of order…. As they simply don’t know otherwise….
Up to now, the man-math almost made sense for the M3P (bmw M3 buyers etc etc), but its now getting silly versus the LR - at a time where there’s an ever-growing list of excellent/bigger/far cheaper family EV options, for buyers who need something with 350-400km of range 99% of the time.
just a thought but, I wonder have VW sold more ID4’s here since March than Tesla’s entire volume ever? It must be close anyway
VW have registered 1,133 ID4 this year (951 ID3). Tesla have 586 M3 (4 MS and 1 MX) in 2021 and 449 (9 MS and 19 MX) in 2020 so a total of 1,035 M3 or 1,068 total.
Edit: I went back further now.
There was also 38 MS and 22 MX in 2019, 72 MS and 29 MX in 2018, 5 MS in 2017, 6 MS in 2016, 2 MS in 2015.
I'd imagine the ones before 2017/2018 would all be second hand imports and a good few of the more recentMS and MX would be as well assuming the Beep Beep figures isn't just brand new cars?
I had the same issue. Fixed under warranty.
Not an anhangerkupplung (tow bar) amongst them!
How does one enter in these referral codes I don’t recall seeing the option upon the initial order process… is it too late for me now to apply somebodies referral code? Currently at the stage of finance approval which should be sorted this week
not listed when I looked anyway.
Design Your Model 3 | Tesla
This red P is what I'd have, if none can have a towbar, but the new price increases are ridiculous. 70k plus is too expensive for a mid level sedan.
You get a link which you use at the beginning of the ordering process. You can't add it at a later stage.
You have to buy using the link rather than going straight to the website. Lots of people caught out by expecting to add a code or something at the end of the purchase.
Absolutely fantastic.
Got the switch on my car fixed this morning. Seriously sound guy from Tesla had it done in 5 mins.
Chatted for a good half an hour with him. Said he's not happy with the opening of the network. Not only will it affect him trying to charge his own car while out on call but he reckons the "etiquette" will go out the window and it will be a free for all with people parking and not plugging in or people just sitting there trying to get to 100%.
His point as has been made in here, was that a lot of Tesla owners buy them because of the supercharger network and when you take that option away then you will see people looking at other manufacturers.
I wonder will they make it expensive for other manufacturers? Still don't believe it will put people off as they'll happily pay to get moving.
Just think it will be a fcuking joke when you rock up to a TESLA supercharger and you are queuing behind Kia's, Hyundai's, Audi's and everything else in between!!
Normally the folk at Tesla seem to have eye firmly on the ball compared to the competitors and they have gained a lot of expertise in running a successful charging network since 2012.
I'm sure there is a plan in place to ensure the SuC experience will continue to be 1st class for both Tesla drivers and for the other drivers. The positive experience with Tesla charging your Mercedes better than Mercedes themselves surely had potential of turning other drivers future Tesla drivers. A bad experience in an overcrowded Tesla station would do the opposite and I doubt this is the master plan here. Proper Tesla charging hubs for Ireland and smaller sites in the West all funded by drivers of other makes of cars sounds potentially like a winner to me.
Let's wait for the details before worrying about this opening the network too much.
I don't know if the Tesla network being so easy to use would encourage other drivers to buy Tesla's tbh.
I know a good few people who don't like the look of them but are big BMW/Audi fans. They'll be laughing when they can just rock up at any Tesla charger and plug in without an issue. Musk's decision has just made life easier for non Tesla drivers.
I see what you're saying, but electricity is just a commodity - having the Tesla charging network satisfy my (probably once in a while) supercharging requirement, wouldn't mean I'm more drawn to Tesla as a car.
the pricing of the model 3 is now so off the wall, and with the Tesla-only buyers/fans here in ireland already getting their deliveries, Tesla will be a rare/niche model here for the foreseeable future.
it’s great news for residuals if you own a pre July model 3 :)
musk says they’ll have cars rolling out of Berlin “in October”. he didn’t say which year, of course :)
Hi Guys, would one of you mind sending me a referral code please, hoping to place an order later today if I can convince the other half its a good idea!
You've got mail :)
thanks Gordon
Is anyone else waiting on a Q3 delivery? Ordered in July still waiting on a VIN and delivery date. Looking at the Tesla Motors Club UK orders made in August of same specs are getting VINs and delivery dates and not a word other than "expected in September" from Tesla Ireland.
Thanks - that's a relief in a lot of ways. Sounds like its a mad dash at the end of the month so. I have been keeping an eye on the shipping thread alright so fingers crossed. Thanks for the clarification.
Anyone downloaded the new Tesla app? I got it from an APK from a 3rd party website as it wasn't in the play store yet. Very slick looking.
Yeah been using it on iOS the last few days, it’s a nice upgrade….
look at the app when someone is driving the car.. it shows the car as a driving animation.
Does it work all the functions as normal ie. Locks, aircon etc?
