    Depends on a few variables...mostly the factories logistic team. I'd say that within a fortnight at absolute most!

    Just a minor point which I'm sure you guys are already aware of......I'd hold off on any dealer fitted accessories until after the car is delivered (ie bluetooth, tinting, etc). No point paying more LCT if we don't have to.....!!!

    Hm... the WW tracking website says my car is destined for Melbourne, and that the Trinidad left Melbourne some time today on its way to Port Kembla.

    It doesn't mention anything about my car being off loaded, though. Does it sometimes take a while for that to be updated? I can't remember what happened when the GTI was on the ship. I hope they haven't left it on board

    When I ran my VIN through with the GTI, it came up pretty much straight away, with the time and date it was scanned off the ship....
    Confirmed Global Warming Sceptic. No Longer a VW Owner -Loving my new 2011 Range Rover Sport - bought as VW unable to provide info on the new Toureg despite it being released overseas 12 mths ago. 2008 R36 Wagon, 2006 GTI and 2004 R32 - Gone. Sorry VW, you make great cars but until you improve your customers' experiences you will lose customers

    Also saves paying state stamp duty on those extras

    Here we go. It took ~24 hours to show up on the tracking page...

    Looking forward to first drive impressions......my dealer should have a demo car around mid June so I'll post my thoughts once I've had a chance to test drive.

    To me this means that it was sent from the wharf to the holding yard. It will stay there until Volkswagen say it can be released to your dealer. I'll keep an eye on what updates you post and see if I can make sense of it for you.
