Oh well, hopefully not too far away fro me too as well

Waited so long already, what's a couple of weeks gonna do.

I received a call from dealer this morning that I can pick up my car this Friday...!
It was on Tirranna and got off the boat at Wollongong as well.

so may be yours isn't too far away.

Just received my VIN info.

Vessel Name: Topeka
Port of Load: Bremerhaven
Port of discharge: Port Kembla
ETA: 25/4/11

Looks like its currently sitting on the ship in Bremerhaven.

I know this is a rubbish post but I just need to let our some pressure.

Car landed on the 6th March, I know it's 2-3 weeks, but ever since it landed the days are passing so slowly I'm dying. If I receive the car by the end of this week I'll be the happiest guy though I know that won't really happen.

Come on Patrick!

Well it is on the ship but is now in the middle of the English Channel.

I ordered almost the same spec as you except I got DSG and ACC instead of Park Assist and mine was on the same ship as yours and came off in Melbourne. I have just put it out of my head. I wont even think out delivery till the end of this month which is fine with me. The more I stress the slower it goes plus work is busy and we are already getting another new car this week which I need to learn the manual for...

Wished you both were in Melbourne. Was wanting to propose sharing the cost of a VAGCOM cable, I'm willing to pay half, use it then the other sharing partner can just keep it.

why not just ask the dealer to config a few things - the pre delivery dept should be able to do most of what you are after
