Mine is on the Morning Carol also, due at Port Kembla on 28 May. My dealer has always quoted mid June for me to take delivery. The MC was originally due 27 May at Port K, but it has lost one day, which is not bad considering how far it has travelled....
MC should be getting close to Melbourne port as we speak - I hope my delivery is not affected by Patrciks either. I am being extra wary of delays, tricks etc as my dealer has extended the free on road, or similar discount to me also recently but the car needs to be delivered to me before end of June.
Come on MC... full steam ahead...JP

Well Patrick's went on strike today for a week.
My car (and a few others on here) was on the TAIKO which docked on Saturday in Brisbane. Probably flip a coin to see if it made it through or not. Those waiting for cars off the TAIKO in Port Kembla I would say definitely add an extra week.
The report the other day was that they would be walking off work from processing containers, but the wharfies are pretty tight and I would dare say all of them would walk off the job.
Update: Only in Brisbane, Sydney and Fremantle.

Seems they are now having a meeting between Patricks and the maritime union.

Melbourne is supposed to be OK, I really hope so.
Anyone know where the Morning Carol is, the web site isn't working for me ?
Thanks

Bugger.. my dealer had a sale over the weekend - a free iPad2 with all cars sold that weekend & delivery before end May.
