- At last the UK receives en-mass the Tesla Model Y. Here is me collecting my one at a HUGE handover event. Probably circa 1,000 cars being collected from one location in a single day.
Tesla setup a full handover experience so come with me here to see it.
Thanks for watching!

I was there with my family at 11am and picked up an identical car to yours. We obviously both have excellent taste!
Eek, very exciting. I guess it's a huge event rather than a huhe event? 1000 cars - other manufacturers would love that sales volume
Indeed. Seems like it has that special Tesla panache.
I was in Southampton today and I wondered why I saw so many Y’s, my hunch was right.
Well done Tesla for bringing the Tesla thirst over to the UK in an even grander scale. Tesla to take over the world! 😂
Great "Collection Day " video! And Congrats on the new MY! The Blue/White combo looks smashing!
Sold my i3 pick my Y up on Wednesday in London all very exciting
Thanks for sharing your "Collection Day" experience with us. Looked a great way to do it and very different.
Wow what an awesome experience. LOL we used that terminal for a Disney Cruise .
Mine is only 2 weeks old & is same spec as yours Love the white contrast with the Blue
Great seeing you take delivery without any paint issues, panel gaps etc 👍🏽
HECK YES!! These things are going to sell like hot cakes.
Depending on how big they are in the flesh could be seriously interested... Especially seeing as the Model 2/Q seems like it's going to 5+ years away!
Buying and picking up a new Tesla is always an memorable event 🍾
It is funny. We went to Southampton today out for dinner and there were so many Model Y driving out from docks and I was like what is going on and then I realised today is the first delivery of model y. Unfortunately none of them was for me😔 hopefully next round. Again thanks for good video and hard work. I think you are the best car reviewer in UK!!!
Wow! Well done. And congratulations 👍
Congratulations!!!
Got ours at 4pm yesterday. Great car. Had a bit of a queue at fleet super chargers but we all lined up like good Brits and took turns with everyone telling their own EV stories and helping each other out.
My model 3 is due for delivery 3rd to 17th March, how accurate was that 2-week period for you? First Tesla for me, so I don’t know if the timeframe is accurate
@@craigfjay Very accurate for us, but when we were there others were saying their date jumped all over the place. Hopefully you will have yours soon.
Excellent informative watch. Really impressed by the speed you managed to edit down the footage, add in the fluffy bits, and publish on YT. Bit too early for me to emerge from the house just to pop down to the docks, seeing as it's my only lie-in morning of the week, so this video was more than welcome. Don't be too surprised by the weather - that's Southampton for you. 👍
Great video! Thanks for letting us experience the pick up mechanics and setup. Interesting. Looks a nice car with room and sporty.
Looks like a great experience today, very cool. Enjoy!
Proud day for any father getting to see the baby they waited so long for. Take good care of baby Y for us.
Congratulations on your Model Y!....I'm just going on one year with mine in Canada and I still love it as much as when I picked it up.
Can't wait for 7 seat version with new cells, plus will be nice to have the Model X available again. Can't believe the used inventory prices on Tesla for a 2018 vs buying a new one!
The blue looks great on the Model Y & they look great with the 20 inch wheels. Another impeccable video 👏😊
Hi Richard, Congratulations for your Model Y purchase! 😉Awesome colour choice for both interior and for exterior!👌
Amazing car!!😎
Tesla panels are the most scrutinized panels ever.
Who is with me?
Blue and white 😍
Super event! Thanks for this video 🤩
Big thanks for the tip regarding Radio/Spotify. I collected my Model Y a few hours after you, and couldn't for the life of me figure out how to get the radio working. Love the car.
oh wow......loved the event. Nice summary video
Well, THAT explains why I saw so many toddling up M3 Saturday lunchtime in the rain...!
Collected mine an 9:30 then 170 miles back to Derbyshire, I must say I'm very pleased with it
Some of your viewers would REALLY love an exclusive piece with the Police and the Police Tesla, in great depth. Integration of police software into the Tesla screen, and all of the other details of how police specifically use/utilize a Tesla. Cost savings, usefulness, conveniences, unexpected benefits. That way I can share the video with my local police departments and other fleets, municipal or otherwise.
Great to see the this Y and your other cars at your open day today. Great selection of EV cars you have there. Hadn’t seen a Y in real life before and it was bigger than I thought it’d be… looked almost as big as the X! Loved that original Tesla roadster, too.
Congrats on your purchase!
Wow looks even better than I hoped - mega excited for mine in September
Thanks for the video, we are picking up 2 Model Y in March, cannot wait.
Getting my model 3 on Tuesday. Bought it because of you!! Can’t wait.
Very exciting! Collecting my MYLR in Ireland next week 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Absolute hype video!
Damn! Blue and white interior is awesome!
Thank you for your comments. I also picked up my Model Y on Saturday. Your comments were more informative than any handover information given me, particular with regard to finding the radio!
Ooh, you do make me think. Now I am thinking that a Model Y might be the car for me and not a Q4...
Excellent video as always.
Just watched your video, your enthusiasm and excitement come over well - I got infected, for a moment, with that collecting--my-new-car buzz! (last experienced in 2016 when I collected a new Jaguar XE) looking forward to purchasing a Model 3 (real soon now! - hopefully).
Congratulations on receiving your car. Last week I saw a white Model Y in London and immediately stopped my car, turned around and parked up behind it to have a better look. I was blown away by the size of the car! Not going to lie, I was very excited. Aesthetically the car just has minimal fuss. Hopefully, one day I will own one.
Thanks for hosting the open day today, Richard, we really enjoyed it. Shame about the weather, but the Pizza was great!
MIC cars have all but eliminated the paint and panel gap issues.
Looking good 😉
Seems like a great even. Congratulations with your car. 👍
Very existing. Hope you enjoy your half term break with the new car. 😀
We were in Bay C2 so just behind you and also for an 8am pickup. As you say the convoy of MY's coming out the docks was fun even if the "event" itself was a bit cheesy. Massive respect to the logistics planning that must have gone into Saturday!
Those cars are looking good 🔥
Stunning colour. I pick up mine on the 22nd March
I was driving from Sussex to Devon first thing on Saturday morning, I saw about 15 of these on the M27 going the other way - looked so good!
Very cool 😎 Enjoy 😊
Owning a model y (China build) myself, and I love it, I'm looking forward to hearing from you about some of the impressions you have. Never had any problems. But I still would love to hear if you would consider the extra sound proofing? Which you spoke of in a video a while ago. I added a thicker cover for the boot. That did something for the sound. But road noise is the only weak point I have seen so far. Not that I can complain when comparing it with my old 2014 Volvo v60. But still...
7 seat isn’t coming to Europe. Well not the UK anyway
I think this is the Tesla we’ve all been waiting for
Got to wait until 16th March before collecting mine, can not wait! 👍
Mine is ready for collection 3/3 ! You beat me !
Wow exciting 👍
What a cool experience. I'm looking to upgrade form my M3 to a Y in that colour combo. Blue with white seats 😎😎😎
I pick mine up on the 10th of March, I can't wait, I chose midnight silver metallic
Looks great, I was deliberating between the blue and midnight silver, I went for the midnight silver in the end, got to wait till May now before I get mine
Model Y looks so much bigger and better in the flesh. Once my lease deal is up this is top of my list.
Love it, it's going to be a best seller
Would love a model Y, hopefully will be able to !!
Great video mate
Enjoy! Looking forward to hearing how it works out in everyday use! 😀
A lot grander than when I collected my Model 3 SR+ in Singapore! Can’t wait for it to come here later this year
Great video….probably because I’m waiting on a black one coming to Belfast. Hoping it was on that boat 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
You're a lucky man, I love the m9del y as a perfect family car. ❤❤❤
My wife is collecting hers on the 11th March. Really suprised when she got the text as she only ordered it 2 weeks ago.
Great video... The open day montage at the end is fantastic, maybe a highlights at the beginning of each video, in this format would be good!
Nice one, My M3 RWD is on it's way, i'm paying more attention to the set up now.;)
Thanks, useful. I wish I had seen it yesterday before I was collecting a blue Y with a white interior. The settings in Km were a bit annoying, easy to change. Took a while to work out the radio. Some scuffs on front bumper, Apart from that quality good.
It was a great day. Got my white on white with 19”.
Hi Richard great video, I have the same colour & interior in my Model 3. Also great to see a channel doing RHD cars as we have in Australia. Model Y are not able to be ordered here yet. Was expected early 2022, but most think late 2022 or early 2023 now. Orders for model 3 have taken off and delivery that was only weeks, is now 6mths or more. The new 2022 3’s are arriving with a updated taillights - the indicator segment is much larger, has 2 reversing lights and I think the brake lights are slightly different too. Do they still have a rear fog light? Assume your new car has the new taillights? Regards Paul- Canberra Au.
Interested to know the actual / perceived noise difference from the 19 and 20" (pre-sound proofing I assume you are going to do to this), and the subjective ride comfort impact of the wheel size - 20" look better but I think the 19"'s will be quieter and more comfortable, range maybe but who cares as it will be marginal. PS: Love this video, the Y looks huge externally compared to a M3
Jeaaaalous as hell 🤣 enjoy it buddy!
Looks like they finally changed the number plate surrounds!
Great content once again. Keep them coming! I'd be interested to know exactly how much wider the Model Y is with the mirrors extended as I can't find a definitive answer anywhere on line. Enjoy the half-term trips in your Y-front(s) 🙂
The Model Y dimensions with the mirrors extended
83.8" wide (2,129 mm)
Folded mirrors
77.9" wide (1,978 mm)
Thanks for that. Great informative video as always. Just one question - is there any way of softening the ride?. I had a test drive the other day and did find it a hard bumpy ride which is a shame as I loved everything else
Thanks for another great update video nice looking car in blue like the red looks great 👍. How much more is y over the same spec 3 ?
Sick that it has the amd ryzen
Amazing - interestingly I ordered exactly the same car as you a performance Y in blue with the white interior. I ordered it on the morning that they sent the email to say the Y was coming. I got the email at 1002 and ordered at 1008. But I am still waiting to have my delivery date confirmed and notified - must be crazy demand at the moment. We are moving from a white on white LR AWD model 3 to the performance Y and looking forward to the slightly bigger space and higher driving position. Hopefully we have made a good choice going to the performance and won’t lose too much range or have too harsh a ride. Great video.
We had our delivery’s in HK from late last year. Also made in China. Apparently better quality and less defects than the ones made in USA
Good to see PPF on the rear wing/arch. Does it also have PPF on the Front Bumper ?
Cool event
I couldn’t help noticed the white trim on your door that looks amazing !! I wonder if the Austin and Fremont plant in the US Rae coming like that ? Hope to hear from anyone that has any info . I am awaiting for my delivery in April .
I saw a fair few Model Ys for the first time on the road here in Devon on Monday.
The police car model 3's rims looks nice
Lovely how Tesla staged the event like an airport departure and you look like a posh A-lister flying First Class. Your MY, with 20" Induction wheels, looks very sporty.
Could you test your Swedish friend's (Uli in the LA event with the Plaid test drive) New Aero Wheel on them and give an efficiency opinion? I myself have the 2021 Fremont-made RWD, standard range MY, w20" Inductions on Michelins, and love them but wish they were more efficient. Lastly, shout out on the EV Open House!! Love the carnival atmosphere and that it is well attended. Keep up the fantastic content.
Great to see a UK Model Y on UK roads. Hope to hear lots more about it. I really would like to hear how the 20 & 19 inch fair on UK roads. This is the only thing stopping me pressing the Order button. I’m used to smooth rides that a Q7 gives. Let us know please.
Make sure you test drive one because I reckon as far as ride the Q7 wins by a mile. The 3 & Y are more harsh and direct/ almost go-cart like in comparison to the Q7 but I love my model Y.
You can drag and drop 4 or 5 icons to be displayed at the bottom of the screen from a selection reached by the 3 dots. Last app used is also displayed. A little confusing at first. Quite similar to smartphone screens actually.
( Fab video as always ) While it does seem great to pick the car up from the docks, does feel as though the car could have done with a PDI - basic config and settings should be on point before being delivered to the customer. Plus, while the collection situation is special and unique, if I’m spending this sort of money on a car - it should be spotless
Going for a test drive in the Y next week at Tesla Dublin.
I like that coat
Zara
Great video thanks. Waiting for orders to open in Australia. Great to know that it will have AMD Ryzen and rear double glazed windows. Thanks so much for letting us know
Also has the lithium 12v 👍
Great overview......what battery did you receive? the 4820?
haha, i was there today! great video!
Hi, wave, i live in Southampton!😁
I miss this kind of delivery event like when we have the model 3 in 2018
verry cool
Ha Ha...
You're just such a fancy-nancy with your brand new Model Y, aren't you, Richard...! 🤣
Great colour combo, by the way - reminds me of the old Merc 190E 2.6 I had back in 90s. 😎
Heard a sea shanty the other day.. Nancy oh my Nancy, She never played it fancy... so it's an old saying? 😂
