It's landed Ross!
(I think you will get yours 1st. Although mine is arriving at the dealer 1st week of Jan, the sales guy is away till the second week, and as he's been really good throughout the whole process I'm going to wait till he's back to pick it up, only fair.)
I don't think it was that ship.... Best guess now is 'Asian Dynasty' which has just exited The Straits of Gibraltar and is due into Teesport on Friday at 22.00. Doesn't look like my car will be here before Xmas now. Tesla is due to go back on Monday so need to extend that a bit.(I think you will get yours 1st.

Yes, I wonder if the 15/12 date is arrival at Immingham, not the original port. In which case the dates make more sense. I wonder if they go from Teesport to Immingham on another boat - I guess that would be sensible. In which case, I expect that mine is in the same place as yours.
A friend saw a few EV6s on car transporters going down the M18 yesterday.

Mine arrived last week, I picked it up yesterday. It's very quick for family transport. First impressions; the cabin was a really nice place to be sat in. We've all seen the pictures and they look great from the outside but I was impressed with the spec of the car. To early to tell on range but it looks better than the EPA figures suggest.
Fab! Only a few days till I get mine hopefully!In an average of -4 degrees in Eco mode this guy got 22.3kWh/100km which is 2.8mi/kWh which is pretty good!

Yea I would, that doesn’t sound right
Make sure you get free GT mats too
There’s real attention to detail, like how in the GT although it does have ventilated seats, instead of having blank buttons they’ve remoulded the moulding so there’s no blanks (unlike a Porsche…)
That’s nice
Hi Archie. Are they GT specific mats then? Can you postva pic?Make sure you get free GT mats too

It IS an approach, IMO, bearing in mind that our other car is a Tesla Model 3 Performance.
The Tesla doesn't have any sort of "launch control", nor any battery preheat mode nor any other mode to unlock full performance. All the power that the car can produce is available from the moment you get in. That's what I'm accustomed to now after 4 years of driving an EV, and it's so much simpler/easier.
The GV60's seats have adaptive bolsters, which do indeed cinch up when Sport mode is engaged. It's noticeable and welcome.
The M3P (I have one too) does overclock the compressor to get max performance in track mode.
