Yep relax thinking about those wharfies doing the Indy 500 with your car on and off the boat.....and then the rough seas....and all that salt water....and then the delivery truck to the dealer.....and the dealer mechanic racing it off to get detailed, or tinted.....

Yep all there is left is to relax...

Well done



Mine was also built that week day 2 week 35.

Decoded to exactly the same as yours except prod number of course.

Škoda Octavia II RS 2.0 TFSI 147kw
model year 2011, production number 032052
6x airbag, production plant Mladá Boleslav

The entered VIN is valid!

Like you i am extremely pleased to say the least, bespite what woofy says. certainly brought me back to earth with a bump
It has taken me seven months to get this far.

I hope that the we have calm seas during shipment as it looks like both cars will be on the same ship.
Looks like the Christmas rally might be possible........

Go SKODA

[woofy]

Sorry I was in an evil mood, I'll go drive it off in the RS I have sitting in my garage.......

In another 18mths time if I order another Skoda I'll remember not to mention it if I have to wait, so there is no payback.

oh sweet.....i'll have company on the voyage down!!
a big relief eh, knowing that its been built. reading all those horror stories (on briskoda forum) about build weeks being delayed here, there, everywhere, made me very uneasy.

have u been given any more details, as to where the car is now, or when it might ship out?
i believe there is a ship leaving mid next week - i'm hoping that's our ride.

when i called skoda oz, quoted my vin, they said u'll get the car in nov.....that's it!! no further info?!?!?!

Now it's built you should be able to put the VIN into the shipping companies site and track it's progress.

once its loaded onto the ship.....till then - "No Records found"

I think it's when the shipping company get possession of the vehicle rather than when it's loaded. I'm sure with mine I knew what ship it was going to be on and when it was leaving a couple of days before it did actually leave Bremen or wherever.

oh really? hmmm....
i hope i'm checkin it right then -
1. navigate to track n trace site - https://att.2wglobal.com/gstattweb/
2. enter vin number in "cargo id", under the quick search page

maybe it hasn't reached the shipping yard, from the factory.

Yes I am a releived mine and my feet are well on the ground.
I have been advised the following on delivery etc 10 weeks freight & 2 weeks Patrick autocare 72Hrs Pre-Delivery and Rego at the Dealers (Trivetts)
So it should be the last week in November just in time to pick my mother up when she arrives.

PS: Liked the footer so copied it a bit......

[dArK5HaD0w]

there are 2 ships leaving next week, bound for oz, arriving 30 & 31st oct at port kembla.
fingers crossed we get a spot on either the tamesis or otello.



tamesis - via USA
otello - via south africa

the asian king left last sat on the 6th, but i highly doubt mine made it on that.
it due to arrive here on 14th oct.

SKODA vRS147 - i didn't realise how similar our cars are. looks like week 35 was "build yellow octavias" week!! lol

[K1W1]

I think that the Skodas always come via South Africa they stop there and drop some off the WA, SA, Vic and NSW.

i know of a guy (on the briskoda forum) in christchurch, nz, who is tracking his skoda octavia scout, which is currently enroute via the US.
see here for details - post #6

The ships that I have looked at the have brought Skodas to Australia have never gone to NZ. From Australia they go north to Asia and Japan.
I won't say they always go that way but the ones I have looked at do.
Either way it doesn't really matter the travel time would be similar.
