basic spec in white.
They asked if I wanted a 24 or 25 car so I am not sure if that put me at the back of que for people who ordered after me and pretended they would take a December reg (that they were ultimately never offered perhaps).
Yes that’s possibly right. If you accept the 24 you would have got one in the December batch.
down for 10th to the 25th feb now so will see.
Fingers crossed for you.
I ordered 5 Nov and still waiting. EDD has disappeared from the app but not sure if that means anything. Mine is a RWD in grey so nothing that out of the ordinary.
Im thinking of pulling the trigger for a new M3 my first EV.
Are there referral codes from other users here on boards that gets reduced prices?
Have been struggling with the same thing to be honest, and even thought of cancelling. I went and had a look around at alternatives, but tbh, nothing comes remotely close in terms of value for money. I test drove a few recently, the Kia ev6 is close but at least 14k more expensive for similar spec, and tbh, just not as responsive to drive, slightly less range and less features. Nice car tbf. Elon musk is a tool. I ordered the car months back and unfortunately he has gotten worse. Plenty of folks who have sky subscriptions support Rupert Murdoch, who is arguably worse, plenty of the complainers have Facebook or insta accounts, which is supporting another despicable company, VW covered up systematic pollution, ....
Whataboutery? sort of, but hypocrisy does abound.
I could see the board cutting EM loose as CEO eventually, if he becomes too much of a sales liability,…money talks.
There's a separate referral code thread.
expect a load of PMs 😀 from real helpful folks who don’t post on the forum but will be desperate to tell you all about Tesla
PMs or a link to the referal thread.
I'm not even sure we are allowed to post the link to the referral thread anymore…..
Same here, I'm driving electric for about 8 years now, Ioniq 28 then a model 3 for the past three years and have a highland rwd on order. There's a big difference in owning a tesla now and and three years ago when i bought first, they are no longer considered a 'cool' car and i can see a 'anything but tesla' route for ev by many first time buyers developing, and understandably so.
The thought of adding any money to that muppets wealth does play on my mind a bit but as you say nothing really comes close spec and price wise to the model 3 rwd. If the seal was a little cheaper i probably would cancel the order and go for that but its quite a few thousand more. The model 3 is also beginning to look a little dated compared to some of the competition from China that is on the horizon. The next year or two should be interesting…..
Chinese models will turn eve
The Chinese models will turn everything on its head, for sure. There is still a little brand snobbery wrt to Chinese cars but that will change am fast.
I think there will be plenty of new teslas on the road on the next few weeks, from end of year sales and the furore will die down, it's not as of there's a bunch of satan worshippers behind every wheel. Musk will be under pressure to dial back the narrative or go, he is an important shareholder but a minority one still. His cr#p is doing real damage to the brand and that won't be going unnoticed by some major stakeholders.
They can't get rid of him. The stock is trading at a 180+ P/E all based on musk's future promises.
If he goes that all goes up in smoke
It's good to know that I'm not alone in having second thoughts. I was looking at the kia EV6 too, but they are nearly 8k more for the same spec. I'm hoping to look at a used Polestar 2 next weekend, as a new one is 13k more than the Tesla. Really like the Tesla but Musk is just damaging the brand and that will cause damage to value of the cars down the line. If he was gone, I'd have no problem getting one. Hopefully Trump will fall out with him shortly.
I make the ev6 14k more for equivalent spec. Model 3 rwd with metallic is 40k approx. An equivalent ev6 really is more like a gt line ( sunroof, leather...) not a standard. Nice car, but not sure I can justify the extra spend as much as I detest EM. Tesla M3 is a perfect car for me, 0.99% finance as well. it's just EM that is ruining things, and that's no small thing. I'm far from a leftie, but he really has turned into a problem. As you say, hard to know how it will effect resales in a few years, it might blow over. Reading just now that Tesla sales are absolutely tanking in Aus and NZ as well this month, and I think it is largely down to that one personality.
Finally got “the call” this morning - pencilled in for a collection on Friday ❤️
Let’s see… I guess my car (407* vin) is in Baldonnell, just pending registration and payment. But I’ll only believe the wait is over once I clear their lot in her 😂🤞🤡
Do you mind sharing when you ordered and spec?
I ordered mid-November: standard blue model 3 rwd.
So a 3 month lead time. Which is not terrible for a new car, it’s all the changes and rescheduling that are needlessly irritating. But also not great given the fact that they’re not made to order and have limited models and variants. I guess their forecasting process needs a few tweaks.
it’s a shipping issue mostly. it’s only the past 2 years that they have meaningful volumes in the Irish market to build shipping schedules from, and shipping schedules are notoriously inflexible, so i assume they’ll improve as they go on, especially if volumes increase.
Sales from 2024 to 2020: 2900, 3300, 1300, 850 & 780.
Collection booked in for Monday. The long wait is nearly over.
Looking forward to whenever I get to pick mine up as well :-)
Have ye guys bought any "must have accessories" yet?
So far, I have bought the following:
Center Control Storage Box https://shorturl.at/lN4i8
Center Control Storage Trays / Cup Holder https://shorturl.at/DTYzO
Mud FLaps https://shorturl.at/3a8dS
The above might interest / help some of you.
Have any recommendations for car mats? From my own search, I like the Yeslak ones:

I’m thinking of tinting the roof fully and the two back windows.
I’ve had it done in my last few cars and it’ stops the kids from giving out that the sun is in their eyes. Has anyone gotten it done?
Lines and lines of cars in Baldonnel at the moment so lots of collections happening soon by the looks of things.
I had it done on my M3 Highland, think about €160k locally (midlands) for "rear" roof and side windows along with those two tiny rear bits of glass. No need to do roof over driver IMHO, never an issue
also check out 3W mats for m3h on amazon uk, very popular and classy
A little japery at Elon's expense outside Tesla in Milton Keynes
No tyre repair kit in the M3???
not included..it's something that you will need to sort out Post delivery.
That's why I couldn't find one so!
Murdoch does not own sky.
