How to track the car you have ordered?

[Prodigy]

Can I therefore assume I'm pooh out of luck on that score?
My current roller-skate is grating on me

I never actually received a reply, so i'm assuming it was a no.

I was in the dealership around two weeks ago, I think he mentioned 13 are due in but don't quote me on that number but he did say all were accounted for.

[REXman]

Dammit the car has already done one and it was without me!

LMAO Died.

So in some happier news....

The Morning Camilla is now in port at Fremantle in Perth.
Here are the web camera shots of it entering the port....

Web Cam 14 at Harbour Entrance:

Anyone received their R off the vessel 'Faust' which arrived in Melbourne last weekend? Or maybe heard from the dealer yet re your ETA?
PS: Yesterday morn, I drove past 8 x R's on a truck going down Nepean Hwy (possibly to Barloworld)....

Darren, nothing further from my dealer ion my R that arrived on the Faust. Nepean Highway is nowhere near my dealer but maybe they go somewhere else for compliance or detailing ie a private contract company? Someone more knowledgable should be able to correct me!

That is likely, if the dealers have multiple dealerships (inc makes) they'd use a central location to prepare all cars and then deliver to the dealer for final collection. I know mine does it like that.

Re Faust, my dealer actually just left a message saying up to another week and a half until they get my ca so a while to go yet.

My GTI arrived on the Faust ,Tuesday 9th Nov at Port Kembla and my dealer said the car would be ready to be picked up on the 23rd Nov - so 2 weeks.

The cars in Sydney go to PrixCar in Minto first then to dealers.

[Corey_R]

All the cars in Sydney? Or just your dealer's/chain's/area's ?

[Jasonpb]

Well was holding out for today so could have some fun on the weekend but here's hoping for Monday now...

Its bad luck to take delivery of a car on a Friday (so my Italian mate told me) so its for the best..... hope to see you on the streets on Monday

I'm assuming all the Sydney cars go thru' Prixcar in Minto.
It says on their website that they can handle up to 14,000 vehicles.
Apparently they will be trying to do the compliance on new cars in Port Kembla sometime next year.
Seeing as I bought my car from Wollongong it wont make much difference with the time from boat to dealer.
But maybe next year they might have an advantage.

OK update time.....My R was on Faust which arrived in Melbourne on Saturday 6/11. Today (7 days later) my dealer called me to advise that Patrick Autocare took delivery of my car on Tues 9/11 for compliance. It should be only 7-10 days from 9/11, till dealer gets vehicle. Dealer only needs vehicle for 24 hours, before I can take delivery! Yes, were in the home stretch, some 5 months since I ordered her.

Man my car landed in Bris on 11/11 I am in townsville, we have had a long wait as well.
