How to track the car you have ordered?

[pcho]

I too have also ordered my R with manual transmission and my ship arrives in Melb on 7/11/10. My dealer says a few weeks after that I should be behind the wheel. My friend has an R with DSG and its a ripper, but I reckon manual will be a whole lot more fun.....Keep me posted, I'd love to know what's your take on the tranny?

Hi Darren,
I love the dsg too, but I owned a Honda S2000 for about 5 years and I just love the feel of the manual transmission. I will let you know how the car is. I will only have the chance to drive it for a few days as I am buying it this for my daughter

There is cool video in Caddy section about production of Caddy from the scratch, it is in Pol language but it's worth seeing it.

Years ago, Fraud offered a thing on their website where they'd e-mail you a couple photos of your car being made (thats what they called it anyway). I reckon they just sent the same photos to everyone hehe.

Interesting, I've been looking to trade my missus in....

Dear Perry,
I believe I am your long lost son!
I've PM'd you my VW dealers bank details for you to transfer funds for the purchase of my R!
Thanks Dad!!

Got this from my dealer this morning...

"...Your car left Bremerhaven , 8/10/10 on the Morning Camilla,passage
C0029. It is expected to dock in Sydney 20/11/10. We normally deliver
about 10 days after docking."

Looks like a few of us with cars on Camilla!

And I am pretty Gawwd damn jealous of you all... I wonder which one mine will be on. Corey may know, do they rotate the ships or do they just pop the cars on whatever is around?

Morning Camilla has docked at Southampton. Another leg completed.

I've seen the same ship name come up a few times over the past year, but there is a big rotation. It's more than just VW using them. BMW, Peugot, and presumably the other German/French brands (maybe even UK?) are also using them. And Wallenius Wilhelmseneven are subcontracting to companies such as Eukor Car Carriers etc. So there's a LOT of ships out there between W&W and their subcontractors!
