They sub the trade ins out to the trade. Expect it to be low as the trade are buying it sight unseen. Can you sell privately to get a little extra?
The trade in offers for something like that can be comically low but is also very random. I got offered 3k more for the same car that was 2 years older at one point. 3 years old versus 5 years old. Its definitely worth benchmarking cost of ownership with trade in on something like an EV6 where you have a proper dealership network.
I checked all the settings and they are all good on V.7.
So I either have to use the key card, or the APP to unlock the car and start the car. I’ve checked Bluetooth in the car and as of right now, my phone is connected but it won’t auto-lock when I walk away and it won’t let me enter when I return after manually locking the car. It’s a funny one.
So if I unlock and sit in the car and try to select gear, I get this
Then I have to open the APP and select start. Or use the key card.
Complete first world problem. But I’m so used to just getting in, driving, getting out. No keys. No problem.
Have you tried uninstalling the App on your phone and reinstalling?
delete the connection on both the phone and the car.
Delete the app and reinstall. repair.
Are you running iOS or android?
Any problems I have had with the app, which have been few and far between, have been phone problems. After a recent iOS update the 'always on' for Tesla had turned off. I am sure you have already checked that.
Try this from the car ..sometimes with Software Updates all setting dont get copied over and yo may need to manually set again.
iOS. I use a 14, the mussus uses an Xr.
I didn't want to delete the APP, because both our phones stopped connecting to the car for open/lock/drive right after the update and I didn't want to delete my widget 😁
I deleted the APP and it seems to have solved it for me. Great that it's working again, but kind of annoying that the issue sprung up after a supposed bug fix update. Previously, maybe 5% of the time, the car wouldn't pick up on my phone signal, but most of the time this happened if I had my work phone in the same pocket.
Thanks all for the suggestions.
Teslas contract does not rank ahead of statutory rights. Threaten small claims they back down, they know its incorrect.
Won't hold up in small claims, the test drive is not part of the purchasing contract.
Its already been explained how it most likely doesn’t violate your rights
Regardless, they won't go to small claims, they will return the deposit.
OP already has gotten refund offered.
Did you manage to get the correct on the road price for your application? Thinking of putting in a HP application with s 15k deposit over 3 years.
Sorry the above was for positron.
I haven't - it looks vaguely correct (there's at least one figure there which if you subtract the SEAI grant, it goes to 38600ish), but when I rang FinanceIreland they said they are waiting for Tesla to send them the exact invoice and that's apparently when the figures will be final - they also said that typically will happen just a day before delivery/collection. Sounds strange, but I've never bought a new car before, so all new to me.
Next to start reading up on wall chargers, installation guys, solar panels, smart meters, electricity plans, battery pack, inverters… I wish there was a "best buy" keypost (like in askaboutmoney.com) with all combo considered, X panels + Y inverter + Z charger will make a good setup for M3 etc… or is there?
you don’t need a good set up guide specifically for the model 3, you may have a different car next. Get a good set up for your home. Are you on Facebook? There’s a solar Ireland page.
Or there’s a renewables section here - https://www.boards.ie/categories/renewable-energies?utm_source=sidebar_categories
Was reading on a FB group that tesla don't apply the grant when it's bought through pcp or hp. Don't see why the grant wouldn't apply?
Its just a glitch on the website
It does apply. Its just the site glitch for HP or PCP but on final invoice it’s actually there.
Oh that's good to know. Thanks
Tesla say that FI have to update the system. FI say that Tesla have to send them the exact figures. Customer caught in the middle. But it will be sorted for final collection.

Thats class looking 👌🏻
All fur coat… 🙂
If that’s a fur coat, I’ll take one please 🏎️
Also has the knickers…😋
Looks good. No front number plate really suits the look of the car. Of course if it was here there'd be lads calling the owner a low life and the worst insult possible an odds on rotr breaker😁
Order placed on: 11th July FI approved: Same day - although, I am not clear what exactly they have approved. Says Total cost of the vehicle is 42227.78, and if you take away the SEAI grant, it comes close to 38727, which is somewhere around the Tesla listed price of 38,607. Trade-in details submitted by 12th July. Delivery schedule: 18th July - 2nd August.
Spent the whole weekend looking at solar, panels, orientation, inverters, micro string, hybrid, batteries, dc/ac coupling, nmc, lpf, powerwall3, load-shifting, SoC, DoD, load clipping, surge pricing, EV chargers, smart/dumb/commando.. my brain is melting. Recent quote from friendly local solar guy looks like crayon squiggles compared to what I am seeing online. And almost every useful video is from UK and they are all waxing lyrical about Octopus Energy Flux/Agile etc. I guess it's time to dive deeper into Renewable Energies area of boards… This car has lead me down an absolute wormhole and serious analysis paralysis territory…!!
Ha ha, we've got you😉
