I thought it would be in a container, bit hard to see being unloaded.
Hey canberravRS, if I'm down Canberra way around Christmas time, any chance i can come check out your Superb?? Or at least i expect photo's on here soon after you pick it up :)

hmmm. Mine was built week 35. I wonder if its on the same ship? The dealer is away until next week so I suppose I'll just have to wait and see. BTW what was the date of week 35? Does anyone know?
i'd actually say "desperate to see it"!! heheheheQuote:

nope - they get driven on to, and then off a massive floating car park (the ship), on to the port docks. ours, & possibly urs too, is in one of these ships (otello) at the moment.Quote:

Just rang my dealer but VIN still not in their system. They are going to follow up with Skoda this morning. Fingers crossed.
I hope to be putting up some good pics, and doing regular reviews as i did with the Octavia.. if your keen to see a Sporty Lowered Elegance V6 in Storm Blue with body kit and Luxons then around XMAS then your most welcome to... Just leave me a message closer to time.Quote:

After calling my dealer yet again, managed to find out that my car was built on the 1st of September & even got the VIN number... Love how helpful they have been since I handed over my deposit... 2 weeks ago my dealer said it wasn't even on the build schedule yet. Useless.
Anyway, it's on its way!

its only a day apart.
i'm guessing the mouse isn't pedalling the ship's propeller as fast as it should be!! hehehhe
The suckiest thing is once its arrived you will then have to wait 36hrs for customs to clear the car, then a day for transport if it comes straight here or goes to Syd first and then joins other cars coming to Canberra.. then you have to wait till the car is delivered to Lennock, PD'd, detailed etc and then registered.. Boom its yours and thats mid November.
Im not expecting my Superb till at least the week of the 15th of Nov.. one day that week it will happen if all goes to plan.
For those folks who have their car on the Otello, which is on its slow way over here, here's a link to keep you up to speed on where your wheels are in the world...

Thanks for that - i knew someone would remember how to track the ship.
Looking now as i have been away for a week and had no access to a computer.
