On a hire car now, waiting for the golf. The golf R is going to feel extra special after driving the toyota corrola for the next 10 days.

hey guys, just a quick question regarding delivery of my R. I managed to buy one that was already ordered by a dealer in aus, and my local dealer managed to secure it for me, the original dealer is I assume in Sydney as my port of discharge for the vehicle is port Kembla, I am located in QLD, what delays if any could be expected after compliance? is it simply a matter of trucking the vehicle to my dealer after compliance?

cheers guys

Haha

Mine is being offloaded in Brisbane and trucked to Sydney

Likely quicker than direct to Sydney !

Well, that is what our company logistics manager said

Anyone know where the Glorious Leader has got to? Been away for the pass week and now trying to locate it has it still off the eastern Sth Afrikan coast.
It was to drop off my car in Melbourne on the 13th but now I think that it is missing in action, sunk, taken by pirates or a UFO captured it.

Last I looked Glorious Leader was due in Melbourne tomorrow, Monday 18/07/11 at 6:30pm, and will be docking at Appleton Dock D. Your ship hasn't been the easiest to track. GL's captain and crew are having too many cones I think, hehe.

Yo, flipperdog.......GL is due in this afternoon at 4pm in Melbourne and then 4am Thursday into Port Kembla. Doesn't seem real after 6 months wait but that's what it looks like......starting to get close now.

Spot on Langers, I didn't subtract 2.5 hrs from the heads as I should have. It's 3 pm and she is close to entering Port Philip Bay now. If you get a chance you will be able to see her on some of the cams once she is up the Yarra River. You may see her pass through the Heads but I'm not sure how often those cams refresh. Nearly in Sydney !!!!!!!!!!

Well now I know what I'll be watching on the web tonight, just to make sure those pirates had not taken my car....wonder if the Sat Nav is still there

Now I wonder how long before getting on the back of a truck for the trip up the Hume.
