That's good news! Mine arrived in Port Kembla on the 8th, so hopefully a similar turnaround and ready on the 27th!

Confirmed my R is still sitting at the Port of Brisbane as the trucks couldn't get through the floods in Rocky, dear god I hope it doesn't go under!

I found the patricks webcam of their holding yard and its not looking pretty...Dealer tells me not to worry there's another one coming in may /cry

Yeah mate I hope your lucky and it doesn't. Man I can't believe these floods. Watching the pictures on TV it just looks horrible. Deepest sympathy goes out to all those poor people effected, and it still isn't over. Tragic. :(

Just checked the Port o Brisbane website - To be Australia ... seems to indicate at the port/holding facility is ok.

Wonder if this will impact the guys waiting in Melbourne?

My R was on the Don as well and I know it was at Patrick's Autocare on 4 Jan so the docks strike should not affect the delivery date, your car should similarly be well clear of the docks by now. With any luck maybe it will speed up delivery, Patricks Autocare will have less cars to process over the next few days.. can only hope.

I just got an email back from the dealer and they said that they had not heard about the strike and they are still getting cars, so hopefully mine will be there or arriving shortly.
