Tesla Model 3 and Model Y Waiting Room and Delivery Queries (No referral links)

For the pickup, do you turn in Renault Ireland or at the other junction?

Is well sign posted?

How long do they give you to report cosmetic issues, and is there a mileage limit too? It's not easy to spot scratches on a dirty car while standing out in the rain.

I've had to temper the OH's expectations myself. She was expecting C&H's but not anymore :)

Thanks for the updates, much appreciated. I suspect the bad weather made a terrible delivery experience even worse.

We are collecting on 13th. My OH was going to come along also, she’s expecting someone from Tesla to handover the car and answer any questions etc. I may decide to go solo based on your experience.

Today is collection day. Weather is miserable, but spirits are high enough. My registration cert was on my desk this morning, so i'll take that as a good sign 😁.

If you have the reg plate, don't worry about it showing in your account. Mine hasn't (unless it's buried inside a document). I still see VIN, but no reg.

It's basically a car park with a hut. Not much to photograph:-)

This is pretty much the extent of what is there (plus about 30 Model 3/Y)

Abysmal. I was expecting a large marquee holding about 30 cars per slot, giving owners a good chance to view the car in good lighting conditions and away from horizontal rain 🤣

I'm hoping for a dry spell this afternoon.

So should we go to D22AV20 or D24KH76? I might need to take a taxi and those guys don't like having to search. Thanks.

True and true. For some is THE car so expectations are high. In fairness they tell you in advance that it is going to be a self service/touchless thingy, whatever that means. My advice take as much time as you need. If it rains it will not be for hours. Stay in the car and get familiarized with the menus, set you keys, phone, favorites, etc. Get a drying towel and after the rain stops take as many pictures as you think. After that I'd go and charge at Ionity or Sandyford and get familiarized with the process. I really hope the delivery experience will not hinder the owning experience which si the most important bit. Good luck and well wear

Well I have collected a Tesla and a BMW is the past 12 months and the experience is not comparable.

With BMW, I have a point of contact email address and mobile number for any queries that I had.

There were refreshments for my family and I and kids given little trinkets etc.etc.

A BMW product expert was available to go through the car in detail, spent over two hours with this person.

We were not left in the rain, the car was covered and revealed to my family and I in a comfortable showroom.

On the other hand with Tesla, collect and go, we could see there were issues with the car but no one there to help/assist or provide any advice, but I get it, that's their business model.

Insurance sorted, no change in Premium. Roll on Friday!

Cool, I'm pinging my broker about the cover for driving on the continent, it was removed from the renewal she sent from RCS this morning.. they quoted €539 for me, so teeny higher than my current 2009 civic renewal for this year.

really? The who delivery team just found out your Seai form not signed one day before delivery??
