    New Tiguan homeward bound on the Oberon...

    Hey all,

    My new Tig is half way home (just passed through the panama canal) on the Oberon.

    Anyone else have a new car coming in via this same ship?

    ETA: 22/3/11

    I doubt you will be able to see anything.
    Hopefully you pick it up early enough to go on the Tiguan cruise on Saturday.

    Yeah, its also moving slower than expected and is now very dark (and I'm stuck in the city) Would have been cool to watch it sail in though...

    Would be great if I could make it for the cruise! I doubt it will clear customs and be ready for delivery by Friday though?

    Whats the usual time for customs clearance for the people who have tracked it?

    I have spoken with the dealership and they confirmed that there is nothing to dealer fit apart from the mats, just detailing (i assume that just means pealing off stickers etc).

    Never know I guess...

    Hmm, i forgot about customs and all that.
    Mine took 2-3 weeks from the day the ship landed until i had the car if i remember correctly.
