I'm waiting on a MY RWD. The VIN is from Belin but the 7th character is F so im assuming that's the CATL battery.
yes that F is CATL E is BYD. I must take a walk around the cars in Cork tomorrow to see can I spot an E in any VIN there.
why did you get 20k free miles?! I got 150km from them but even after calling them they never got credited. Wasn’t bothered chasing them as there’s no supercharger near me
Its a recently introduced (time bound incentive) introduced in the last week and applicable to all cars picked up from that date to 30th June ..most likely to help clear the decks with any cars in Inventory.
well presumably you can just say “don’t stress lads, I’m happy to wait for you to deliver the car to my collection point”.
They can hardly say “we’re giving your car away soz” 🤪.
Have to say I find this Tesla pressure on paying customers to be a massive turn off. It’s like they think their vehicles are some sort of rarity and you’re lucky to be given one
Current June offer to take delivery before end of Q2.
That's exactly what they said they will do.
Collect it in Dublin or we will unmatched you from the car you have bought and paid for.
We don't have the logistics to get the car to Cork.
You could chance your arm and cancel. Then buy it from inventory (if it makes it to it) on 1st July. Get 242 reg but it wouldn’t be worth the loss of free SuC IMO.
How much is the 20k km free SUC worth ?
Well assuming you get 5km per kWh then 20,000km divided by 5km = 4,000kWh @ let's say 64 cents per kWh at a SUC = €2,560
My car would cost me €2,700 in petrol to cover 20,000km at €1.80\litre. So that's the real saving I would see if I switched. I cover 1,000km per week so 20 weeks worth of free driving to me the offer is worth.
Only problem is there's no sub €40k M3 in the inventory ready for delivery.
But if you mainly home charge on night rate then it might only be worth €500 or less.
In our case it would be worthless, because I'm not going to spend the time traveling to and waiting at an SuC for less than €500 of savings.
Is it transferable to the next owner?
If not, it’s not worth that much to most people, who wouldn’t use 20,000km of supercharging in their lifetime, never mind just on one vehicle.
Swallow your principles or call their bluff I suppose.
Just remember that once you leave the Dublin collection, they’ve got all they needed from you. one person - one sale - one delivery. Bye 👋
There used to be so much talk about how easy Tesla’s sales model is - but in reality you'd really need to want a Tesla, to buy one.
supercharging has nothing to do with your home charging. It is the public charging network. If you plan on home charging and have no need to charge outside of that then this offer is useless to you.
Been on the fence since March and waiting to test a M3P before deciding on that or the LR. Went into Cork Tesla for confirmation: have to pick up car in June to avoid any impending M3 EU tariff price increase. A €250 deposit at current price won’t lock it in for a July pickup, as some people on here seem to have been told. So you would have to be lucky with a well priced currently available version and buy in June to get at “now advertised” pricing. Still no M3P in sight to test before July and only “upgraded” LRs to pickup immediately. If it ends up being ~20% hike I won’t be swapping from my 530e. They really do have a bizarre selling model.
Pick up car in June equals bump up our second quarter figures!
true, here’s to hoping the prices don’t jump in a few weeks.
I doubt anyone that doesn’t “want” a Tesla buys one. I’d assume you’d really need to “want” a BMW to buy one too?
The 20,000kms free SuC is for 3 years and non transferable
I was responding to the question, how much is it worth wrt suc.
How long roughly does it take for the estimate date to be shown on the app ?
it’s on the website when your ordering.
That's just the months (and sometimes it's the month just gone by so I don't trust it)... At some point you get DD/MMM. - DD/MMM ? Don't you ?
That’s not the point and you know it :)
i mean all these delays and hurdles Tesla put in front of you, and if your delivery is close to the end of the quarter then their treatment of you is even worse. Passive aggressive even.
You’re buying a €40-50k product from them ffs :)
Yeah I get that part and agree with you. Previous surveys I’ve filled in (after buying a product or a service etc), I’ve always stated they need a traditional sales model to suit the Irish climate. Q’s mean nothing to us but it’s been run like a multi national I suppose.
It’s one of those things that you just have to like it or lump it but if you’re happy with the end product then there will be certain shortcomings. Rightly or wrongly.
I suppose its that “like it or lump it” mentality is what I mean when I say you’d really want to buy from them
Id you really “want” the car. The buying process is the painful part. Nobody enjoys the buying process but the end result is where you want to be. No matter what brand I suppose.
The price is the price for a reason, it’s something you live with to get the product for such value
I'm familiar with the SuC versus home charging. My post was in reply to someone who estimated how much the supercharging was worth. Even if you currently home charge, it could still be worth something, if it was practical for an owner to change some of their charging to an SuC from home. Eg someone who lives within a few km of Sandyford or Mahon Point.
"How much is the 20k km free SUC worth?"
This question or another one?
