How to track the car you have ordered?

Sydney Aida update - seems due to pub hols, Patricks only took the cars on the 31st so will be about a week behind the Melb Aida. Dealers should receive them by the 14th and hopefully delivered by 21st

Well the Tristan was back in range for a short while last night after 10 days or more - passed through between the North and South Islands of New Zealand about 6 hours ago.

So it's still floating and on track to arrive in Melb on the 6/1 and Sydney on the 8/1! Exciting!

She's arrived in Melbourne - bring on Port Kembla. Least a cyclone didn't sink her!

Gratz mate! Still no word for me yet. My R is still in bond with Patrick Autocare and awaiting delivery to the dealership. I also have to fill out some more paperwork with the lease company as well before then so hopefully its soon.

Spoke to the dealer today and my R is sitting at the docks in Brisbane still even thou it disembarked on the 21st of December. Apparently the trucks cant get through still because of the floods, looks like another couple weeks wait as the bruce looks like being cut for at least another week or two at rocky

All I can say man, is it's probably lucky that it's at the docks still and not in some holding yard which is now under water!

were you on the aida too?

[Angryman]

Yeah I hear ya Corey, Wasn't on the aida, I think I was the only person on the Topeka, which docked on the 21st in Brissy. I also found out that Patrick's, as in the shipping company, do all the compliancing stuff to bring the car upto Australian spec, child restraint points etc, prior to it coming up here to North Queensland.

Apparently my dealer just cleans the car on arrival and fills her with petrol.

[Corey_R]

Yeah... it's a bit more than cleaning the car and filling her up with Petrol, but yes, Patricks do the compliance... though it's a better to describe it as "bringing it down to Australian spec". Australia needs to ensure it's quota of dead children each year by using 1970's spec gear...
