There's a bunch of us with cars in 3 separate ships that have just left the German port of Bremerhaven in the past few days. My ship, the Morning Camilla is in the North Sea, just above the northern most point of The Netherlands, on her way to Zeebrugge in Belgium.

Mine's on the Faust which is somewhere off Western Africa and hopefully nowhere near pirates. Due in Melbourne on 7 November. Ordered 28 June.

Shakesphere & Prodigy's cars are on water, or close to it, along with mine.... I believe Jason's is also on water, so there is 4 from us alone... I just want mine.... hurry up already...

Dermot, so the standard is 5 months now.. is there any news from inside the dealer network to say thisis going to reduce..?

Dermot are you sure mine is on the water or very close to it? It doesnt show up when i put the Vin Number in the online tracker and the last update i received stated it had only recently passed checkpoint 8. If it is on a vessel already i'll be over the moon, please say it is

Mine would have to be one of the closest
Turned up at melbourne dock 30 min ago. 2 days til it's unloaded, then gotta wait for delivery!

Feels a bit wrong, cause i know there are others who have been waiting longer.
Guess it's luck of the draw in regards to the options that are on backorder.

The excitement must be strong now

Its definitely at the Port, can't guarantee it's on a boat yet though. It usually takes a week or so from when it actually gets onto a boat to the time you can track it online. Funny auld system we have! It's not far though....
