Tesla Model Y

Setting that high standard "negotiation skills" will not yield results with Tesla …the price is the price. With all vehicles the price has several components (Model, Colour, RWD vs.AWD, Wheels, Tow Hitch, Software) so at some stage the VRT threshhold (Fixed) will be breached and it would be difficult for Tesla to manage around this. You mention a specific variant but there will also be many other configurations that fall into the same trap. At times Tesla have been known to offer price adjustments (discounts) at last few days of quarter end if they have stock to shift but be aware even if this were to happen it will have no impact on VRT, as this is based on the OMSP (not actual purchase price). The price is the price….just trying to manage expectations.

I hope you succeed where other have failed. I remember in past Tesla was very strict about picking up car before end of quarter but then they allow to pick up car in new quarter to get new plates. Who knows what will change in next couple months.

Have you get a 9-speaker audio, or 15-speaker one? I'm finding it difficult to get a reliable info on the differences between the Long Range RWD and Long Range AWD models. Once would have thought that since both are Premium, the trim level is the same and that the only difference is the addition of the front motor with all its performance and handling implications.

The Long Range RWD has only been given the "Premium badge" to differentiate it following the introduction of the lower spec/price LR model which now carries the Standard Title. The higher spec audio used to be just for AWD and Performance…so it is more these "higher speced" models that indicate higher spec audio

For @walus

Thanks, my own trade-in runs out Saturday, collection Friday afternoon.😊

Got 6 weeks also so seems to be the new standard

Yes I am the same now, just checked my trade-in expiry details. Valid for another week or so after collection Friday. So if things go tits-up on collection day I have a bit of unexpected leeway.

Very soon hopefully, as long as it's not a Honda.🤣

(Joke)

Depends on how long it takes for an offer to come in from the trade, my trade-in I suspect was actually from Tesla, ie that they are going to sell on the car themselves the car having lowish mileage (Just less than 60k km). Never asked me for any photos this time, offer came back in about 2 days iirc.

Delivery is due 5th-10th March.

Only put the deposit down last night, so all very quick

I asked the sales person when I was down in Cork in January, who then went into the boss to check. Was told more than likely would apply, within the following few days I noticed it as Credit on the sales agreement. Also on the payment details as extra €3500 credit.

I suppose I technically started again when my Dec order for early January was not fulfilled, so it's the same as a January order.

Chase them for the bonus.

Excellent. Well done. Their systems are good in hindsight. Just at the time can be a bit messy.
It’s actually easier than most mainstream brands to keep updated re delivery times etc, with Tesla being better than most at passing on deals and price drops after car ordering.
Best of luck

If it of any help to others I have just paid the extra insurance premium with Aviva for changing to a MY from a M3 on Friday 27th.

Extra €50.25 for 11 more months of insurance, previously was €310 p/a so now approx €365 p/a if my maths correct.

Was expecting more tbh, took about 20 minutes to a very friendly lady not in Ireland, €25 fee for phone consult not charged due to not being possible to do online.
