So.... collected my M3LR from Tesla Bristol today. Turned up about and hour and a half early and found the car in the car park so managed to have a good look at the exterior of the car before going in. Zero issues with paint and panel gaps as best as I can see.
The Tesla shop was absolutely rammed, hadn't occured to me that the retail store would be so busy. In any case, skipped the queue and just went and asked to speak to someone at collections, all good there. Sorted my part-ex, barely looked at it - just checked the mileage and confirmed the VIN matched the V5C and that was done. He opened up the car for my to check over everything, seems the valeter was wearing muddy shoes/clothes when they wiped it down - marks over the front and rear seats. Wasn't particularly impressed considering first impressions are important - anyhow, dealer bloke ran off and got a man with some cleaning products. 20 minutes later, all looking like new and all good there.
Front USB ports and wireless charging pads missing as we thought might be the case. Not the end of the world. Car running V11 software already, though interestingly it's missing both Cuphead and Sonic from the arcade - apparently its not hit some of the latest cars due to 'bugs' in the games - we'll see what happens with that. Suspect its probably related to the missing USB ports as it needs a controller to play.
Otherwise, all good. Windows will need a decent clean at some point - sticker residue from the delivery stickers but not too bothered about those. Signed the final paperwork, phone app updated straight away and 30 day premium connectivity trial activated.
Easy enough process overall, not bad considering I only reserved an inventory car last week. We'll see how long it takes to get that retrofitted USB/wireless charger sorted. They've said they're looking to get them done by end of Jan but will take that with a pinch of salt!
