      My baby is born next Friday. Then a few weeks to get in a ship I guess. Hoping for quick transfer and a fast boat!

              Get your VIN and punch it in here as the "Cargo ID"

              https://offices.2wglobal.com/offices...uickSearchPage

              It'll give you the vessel your car is on. The go to either VesselFinder : Free AIS Ship Tracking of Marine Traffic or https://www.marinetraffic.com/ and it should show where the boat is. Sometimes they drop in and out of GPS signal so don't be alarmed when you can't find updated data.

                  According to the tracking it first was listed on the 20th June and received at the terminal on 7th July and left the day after. I received my VIN towards the start of September and by then the ship was leaving South Africa.

                      Awesome, Thanks Dzl.

                      daMama, how close is the shipping date to the ETA the dealer gave you? assuming a week or less to get it from Melbourne to the ACT.

                          LOL Opie! It was about 2 months out! The car was sitting at the dock for almost two weeks before it was loaded onto the ship. Its coming from Sydney. Is yours coming from Melb?

                            My wagon arrived at Port Kembla yesterday as scheduled... dealer says to allow roughly 10 working days for delivery.

                              Mine sat at the docks from 16/9 till 27/9 when it was loaded. Ship has gone to the UK, left and is now sailing across the north Atlantic towards Baltimore (out of tracking range).

                              Two weeks from landing to delivery is a pretty good estimate, that's what I've planned.
