Great excitement here, wife got call to pick up this afternoon. Any watch outs for us?
You need to log into your account on the Tesla site.
Click on the payments tab.
Then use your RN Number as the reference. Send €1 first. Once you see that hit the account then send larger sums.
Think I only noticed 1 lady driving a white one yesterday, but with the traffic levels on ringroad and roadworks wasn't paying a huge amount of attention. I try to wave at every EV ☺️
Yes, sentry enabled.
I don't seem to have the bank details
Bank transfer
just use your RN number
they give you the details in your account on the site.
If you got a wave from another white M3 yesterday, it may well have been be! On the Live Camera, have you enabled the option in the car? I believe it's under the Autopilot settings.
We also found them very good, better than tesla by more than 10% and better than other 7 quotes by more than 5%. Is tied to Joe Duffy.
Very straightforward, get quote online (I think needs photos), arrange an inspection and do haggle a little (we got an extra couple % doing this), come back within 5 days (thats how long quote is) and sign the docs, money in account following day worst case.
I never even got a car has been allocated text. (Have VIN in source code). How did you pay before getting the delivery date?
Any shot of Kinsale is a decent angle to be honest (with only a very small amount of bias). Thanks for the update @eagerv , good to get early thoughts.
I have a car to sell first, so would hopefully get a txt soon with a delivery date.
Lads (And Lasses) I hope you all get your cars soon, it's a fabulous car. I was lucky grabbing an inventory one in early February, if not could well have been May for me.
Had my first decent run today down to Kinsale from west Co Wexford. So comfy and loads of power. Filled up at Mahon to 100% on way home and used 32% to get 142km home. Plenty of heat, some heavy showers and speed limit or a few km above where possible.
Pity autosteer doesn't work when not using adaptive cruise control, it does on Hyundai and my previous Honda. I prefer to drive the car myself when on busy A roads, but would like the help of auto steering. Perhaps on a future update? And vis out the back window is poor. Also live camera not working for me on app, thought after todays update it might. Have tried reinstalling but no luck as yet.
My new Tesla wheel caps arrived yesterday, think I prefer the look rather than the aero covers.
Same here, got the "car has been allocated" text on Feb 23, have a VIN in source code and fully paid up, have been told by the sales team that it should be mid-March...
I'm normally quite patient, but I think I might be a bit too excited about this...
Im not sure they accept payment on the day.
The website says you must pay your balance prior to delivery.
Same as above, ordered 25th Jan, no delivery date yet, but told I was matched with a car 🤷♂️
No delivery date as yet

Got 1500 more than any dealer with zucar. No hassle gave exactly the sum quoted only asked for the vehicle reg cert and keys done in 10 minutes.
There's a list of locations on the site. Mine was to a ford dealer I think zucar is tied to Joe Duffy motors.
Oh, I might give Zucar a look and see what they say. Do you just drive the car to one of their locations then?
Have you been given any indication of a delivery date?
I'm on Feb 7th as well. Zucar offered me €1000 more than tesla though so you have a back up if the trade in is lower
How long do people typically go from receiving their VIN in the source code to getting a delivery date?
Mine appeared on the 7th of February, but my trade-in offer expires on the 14th of March. I'm concerned that a new offer would be lower if my delivery is after that.
I will have a small balance to settle on collection day, do they take credit card @ Baldonnell?
I have the “Inspect T” app although I haven’t collected mine yet so there might be a better list out there.
Anyone have a delivery checklist near to hand (remember one being here but can't find it and search function is a disaster)? Looking like pick up on Sat for the wife...
I normally just use bonkers.ie and/or switcher.ie to pick the best deal
Submarine mode activated on this modded Overlander M3 - go to 6:00m mark.
I had a video prepared because it was very random but the guy knew what I was talking about. He looked at the latch to be sure it is nothing in there holding the boot. Then he replace the whole control arm. The only tool he needed was a screwdriver to pry a cover. According to him the arm is missing an oring and loosing power in time. The replacement is upgraded. So I'd say log your issue.
Mmm that's a personal thing I'm slightly dyslexic and don't have grammarly on my phone. That's lots of re-reads.
But classic thing to do on a forum discussion throw in a few personal comments and then correct spelling 🤣
Nope quite the opposite.
68 million / 34000 = 2000
5million / 853 = 5,861
The lower the number the better like 1 in every 2000 getting the car rather than 1 in every 5000
Or explain your logic on the calculation?
It's a comparison proportionally I'm comparing baskets of apples one is big and full the other is smaller and not so full. Proportionally means the bigger basket and the smaller basket should be at a similar level instead of the bigger one over flowing 😉
No doubt there will 5000 and interestingly the Irish market proportionally is serviced better that the UK and even the u.s.
But you guys will remain niche so happy days for ye 😁
Same position for me, was told mid to late March for collection but nothing official in the form of texts, emails, or the like.
We've got a holiday booked for the 21st March so it's pretty much guaranteed they'll start deliveries then 😄
