It's on it's way to Melbourne I'd say.

Is the link on page 1 of this thread still the right one ?

Is Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics the only carrier VW uses ?

I have had my wife's VIN for about 10days now but nothing comes up on the tracker ....

Any thoughts ?

I had my VIN for over two weeks before my car appeared on the tracking site. The dealer will be in a position to give you the VIN within a couple of days of manufacture, but from there the car needs to be shipped to the docks, wait for the boat, be loaded onto the boat and then the car's data has to be entered into the tracking system. This all takes time.

How did yours miss the boat?

Mines cleared customs and should be at the dealers for pre delivery next week.

< 3 months from order to pickup.

Its that dodgy slushbox and detroits that slowed yours down I reckon Mine'll ride better, handle better, have a more involved driving experience, AND it got here faster

If the dealer tells you a boat (Toronto) is arriving in Melbourne with your car on it, let’s say 31 May 10 and you know it has arrived on 21 May and departed 22 May. Is it possible for that boat to head up to Sydney for example then turn around and do another drop off in Melbourne on its original specified date ?

Typically, no. Your dealer should be able to give you your VIN number and from there you can track the voyage and stops your ship makes.

It’s interesting you say this, as when I rang the dealer they were adamant the boat arrived on 31 May and the car would be ready for collection after 16 Jun. When I told them the boat had already arrived and left on the 22nd, there was a pause and some back tracking. But anyhow, still no word from the dealer, but I’m now used to that.
