How to track the car you have ordered?

[JPanDAX]

Has anyone got a car on the Morning Carol?

I have and have been tracking it on APR/Fi web site. It says it is travelling at 31 km/hr however it has not moved in the last couple of days!!

Not sure what is going on with it. It is due to dock at Durban in S/Africa in early May.

Appreciate any feedback or knowledge relating to tracking and if perhaps I am missing something??

You're missing something

It's showing it's last position. It's just not trackable right now as it's too far off a coastline. On the route it's going, there are usually two 10+ day stretches where it's not trackable.

Ok, better me missing something than the ships gone missing!!!!

Thanks Corey, guess I will just have to wait until it is back in range. It must be down past Dakar (Africa) by now I imagine at 31ks/hr....

This wharf issue in Melbourne looks like it is escalating and it is going to extend to other cities

Strike at Melbourne's docks could leave boats stuck in the bay | Herald Sun

I hope they sort it out quickly or everyone is going to get jammed up in the coming weeks

They better resolve it because Toreador is docking in just over a week's time! It's so close, yet so far! I just want my car already!

One of the other blokes (gavs) in the polo forums spoke to VGA about it today - see this post in the polo threads:

Don't we all!! Mine is a little closer though. The wait isn't that bad... okay it sucks. However, I was able to track mine across the Indian Ocean, Sailwx.info: ship maps, weather, tides, hurricanes, which made the wait a little more bearable. Not all ships are trackable this way though.

[JPanDAX]

Yeah waiting, waiting, waiting. The Morning Carol does not come up on Sailwx site.

From last known location I estimate it should be well down the west coast of Africa, just past Dakar somewhere.

sa-r32 - nice sounding spec on the CC, those things go in the 6 FSI...

Come on Morning Carol.
