Tiguan Wolfsburg Edition - Australian Delivery Information

[Orpheus2k]

For those who have a car on order, the dealer stock controller will assign you a build slot and the dealer will then know rough build times and estimated delivery dates.

Once the car is in production you will get a VIN so you can track the car when it is in transit/shipped from the factory to final destination (Oz of course).

For ship tracking, use the VIN as the customer number on the following website & Mobile App.

How can I track my shipment | Wallenius Wilhelmsen Ocean

The mobile app is great as you can track the process of the ship in real-time! Only negative is it makes you more nervous and in anticipation....

Good luck to all!

Ok, good news & bad news.

Good news first:
My car has finished building and is on its way to Hamburg docks to get shipped to Oz! Expected arrival to Port Kembla port is 10 Jan - so delivery is end of Jan...

Bad news:
Wallenius website does not allow us to track the cargo (via VIN) so I don’t know which ship it’s gonna be on. Would have to check with the dealer once they know.....

Wonder if mine is on the same ship

This is the shipping schedule to the end of year, but I don’t know which ship my car is on yet. Will find out when it boards the ship I suppose.

Hello all. Has anyone considered colour matching the plastic wheel arches to the rest of the body? I think that would make a great touch and make the overall car look visually lower (as I think it makes the wheels look like it 'fills out' the arches more if that makes sense).

Good thing I got the R-Line which doesn’t have this prob

Hey Orpheus, I'm actually getting the Tiggy Wolfie (being delivered in a few weeks). The R-line still has a thin black plastic trim around the wheel arch. I think the lower models have this too, but their trims are much bigger/fatter.

Ah yes I see what you mean the wheels arches have a thin bezel.

I'm afraid to say that the R-line does have unpainted wheel arch trims. All the lower plastics on the doors and front/rear bumpers are body coloured but the section going over the wheels is an unpainted grey textured plastic.
