How to track the car you have ordered?

Markwid, agree! The Bi's look amazing. Mine is built in week 50 I believe and currently in south Africa. S

Im a bit miffed with this tracking biz. Mines on Otello too going to Port Kembla (Sydney)

Nadcon from 09/01 said it docks said 03/02
Two days later it was bumped back to 05/02
Last week it went to 07/08
And have just checked now and its 08/02

... are these changing dates normal? Ya, I know its only 5 days but I want my new GTI dammit!!

Cheers

For anyone with a car on Don Carlos, she's just outside the heads at Melbourne now...

Mine finally turned up on the tracking site this morning aboard the 'Morning Conductor' which is due to dock at Port Kembla on 8th March. Yeah, its on the way!

For those of you experiencing frustrating delays, here is cause of it. A shortage of parts is causing VW to go as far shutting down Wolfsburg for a day.

Wow! I was told this shortage of parts a couple of days ago, is the reason for all kind of delays - R, Polo, etc... I took it with a big grain of salt and didn't think it was legit.

Now, I am just relieved and glad that my order made it through and is on the ship already.

I can't believe this, first my dealer refuses to give me the NADCOM screen capture. Now I rang him up to see if he can give me the VIN so that I can track it on the ship, again the dealer tells me thats not possible and that he will only be able to give that to me once it's off the ship! I totally understand that he doesn't have to give it to me as I don't own the vehicle yet but this really ruins the customers experience!!

I would love to recommend people to NOT purchase from the dealer I got my car from, if you're interested to know, PM me I'll give the dealers name.

Thanks mate. I am glad mine made it on the ship as early as it did. Was expecting it on the next ship a week later.

You must be excited too about yours coming in very soon.

Hi aVex, your salesguy is not customer friendly, is he? I suggest, go down to the dealership in person, grab any salesman and ask them to show you the ETA screen for your order. If built, the other screens would also show VIN.

Okay, I took your advice. I went to the dealership today and the sales guy apologised. The stock controller manager also said that the sales person should have kept me up to date.

I got all the details I needed, it's on the Morning Conductor, now ETA 06/03/2011 and I should receive it by the end of March.
