Inventory cars are a rounding error, your lucky to get.

You said Holland had 7, they are delivering 400+ a day.

UK? 2000+a month.

Where do you make your numbers up from?

https://www.marklines.com/en/statistics/flash_sale...

Last month ALL imports that aren’t picked up by a specific brand in the table (so Tesla plus some others) were 587

You really are boring us all now Rob with made up rubbish

[RobDickinson]

Europe has or is getting a decent high power CCS network I think?

Usually tesla supplied destination chargers are installed with 50% set to any car and the rest tesla only, but its totally down to whoever installs them.

Obviously supechargers/urban superchargers are different - tesla dont have on site billing its all done through the car Id and tesla account. No one seems to want to get on board which requires helping build out that network..

They sold 2082 in August and 2864 in September, October will have been lower as cars produced in September will have been for the US so they can be delivered before the end of the quarter.
Those numbers are just for the model 3.

Aug-Oct they’ve still averaged below 2k.

Maths is a relatively simple thing.

It’s not a million miles off a 3 series and I’m sure every Tesla is sold whereas maybe BMW dealers pre register cars.

Anyway are the model 3 sales at the expense of anything else I wonder?

Just remains to be seen if they stall or improve sales and deliveries in the U.K. long term.

This quarter Holland is getting 15-20,000 I think , next April the new BIK rates come in in UK making the 3 vastly cheaper to own than a 3 series etc.

Since VW is coming with electric cars, Germany are going to give tax incentives for electric cars as well.
Here in Belgium it's been insane how many of the model 3 get sold.

Looking at the inventory I'm wondering what's the difference between a 'Performance' and a 'Long Range with Performance Pack'. They appear to be simply Performance models; wheels, brakes, spoiler, everything.

Edited by DDg on Friday 29th November 04:25

LR with perf pack I assume are the very early cars which had a lot of options like perf pack, brake upgrade and 20” rims

It all got bundled onto the perf and the price dropped

AFIK you've never been able to add the PUP to the LR and there certainly shouldnt be any of those cars in the UK?

This is like a reverse P1 or stealth car. Odd.

Nothing odd at all, they introduced new model codes for 2020 versions of the M3 and in some places they refer to it as LR performance and other places just Performance.

Here’s a fully decoded example except CPF1 which nobody knows what it means

(This is the type of answer you get from someone Rob thinks is a hater compared to Rob himself who just guesses)

[RobDickinson]

the upgraded thermal management system?

[squirdan]

Morning all

a few funnies after 1200 miles

- the battery "range" top right icon in my display only shows %, I swear when I first got the car it was miles. I cant find a way to change it

- why when I've got the max charge set to 90%, would the car charge to 98% on the granny cable?

- does anyone elses sometimes not register its you that unlocked it and therefore not move the seat to the saved position?

- I've read about scheduled departure and battery conditioning. Is this a thing on the M3. All I can see on the app is the ability to heat the cabin

- I know theres a childlock function for the windows, but there isnt a door setting you can toggle on or off is there?

- how bothered is anyone about condensation in the light clusters? I'm assuming it will just burn off when the weather changes

[Dave Hedgehog]

another OS update today, scheduled it for 10am

oooh its the deep neural network trained auto wiper update

hopefully that will fix one of my bugbears with the car

Could be but theres usually a clue in the letter and most M3 only codes have the 3 in there somewhere.

There are a few ways to work them out, buried in the Tesla web pages, usually the configurator, the codes are there with their explanation. At other times it’s a case of looking at the cars with and without a particular code to try and see what pattern fits completely. There are 2 or 3 places who do this, other than me, Tim Dorr has the best list, we have similar lists, I have a few he hasn’t got, and whenever I check his list I usually find one I’d not worked out (just looking he’s got GLFR as final assembly Fremont, the FR would make sense, just need to satisfy my self why the whole code would be that. At the end of the day it’s a fairly niche logic problem!

So..... ordered my M3P in October & the website was saying delivery December... Now the website says February delivery.

Any idea what the likelihood of me getting my car during December?

I would call up and ask if there any incoming inventory they can allocate.

[Greg_D]

i can't specifically answer that question, but it is this sort of amateur hour date slipping that turns 'non enthusiasts' off tesla.

It's not good enough... what about if you have a lease going back in december? some companies aren't very flexible when it comes to letting your lease just run and run while tesla decide if they're going to give you a car or not.

not knowing that you're actually going to get the car until you actually drive it away just isn't the done thing.
