    And then say max a few days for transporting down.
    Provided that transportation has been arranged. Just ask th dealership when they well be sending your car down. They might be wanting to do a handful of cars a once, if so, you might wait a bit longer.

    Your lucky, Toba likes to be in "stealth mode" and only turns his signal on in heavy traffic, which there isn't on the coast of Africa. Probably will not see him until he hits Freo - and then that will be on webcams, I hope.

    Lol - you guys are funny. These are huge ships carrying millions in freight and travelling the opens seas. Ocean currents can assist and also impede the travel of a ship, and bad weather can slow progress, or even cause a ship to stop and wait it out, or travel around it.
    And yes, when you're talking tens of thousands of kilometres, travelling slower or detours can cause days of delay!

    Patience is a virtue

    That is what i have been advised anyway.
    I would say early to Mid May it is then, just like the dealer said! God it is going to be a looooooonng month!

    At least your's is only a month away.
    Mine is set for Late may, ship docks 5 May so I have to wait for 3 weeks while it sits litterally 10km away.

    I've never seen a more beautiful ship... As long as they drive our cars safely off the ship and park it well, then that is all i ask for... now the 3wk wait.

    Just called the dealer yesterday and he wouldn't give me a firm date 4 delivery, instead insisted on the car being not at the dealership yet and he can't say for sure... He also told me that the car only got off the boat on the 31st instead of the 23rd as shown on the tracking site?? It is friday already and I'm still waiting 4 that call... >_<
