The official I have ordered/received my new MKVI thread

[masev]

Hey Simonm

Checked my VIN number 5 mins ago and my R is on the same ship too!

Just out of interest, when was your order placed?

Won't be too long before we zoom past each other on the streets of Canberra! Woohoo!!!

[simonm]

I placed my order on 23 June. I know two other Canberra people (also on this forum) who are expecting blue Rs around the same time.

YAH! finally put a deposit on my new MkVI gti.

Congrats on your GTI, nice spec

FYI My R has now been loaded on the Torrens ETA Fremantle 6/11

For those interested it was ordered 18/6/10

[fergus]

Finally my GTi (week 38 build) is now showing as being loaded onto the "Morning Camilla" in Bremerhaven with an ETA in Melbourne of 16th Nov. Hoping that will translate to being in my hot little hands 1st or 2nd week of December.

Wow, blue seems to be the "flavour" of Canberra so far....

I consider myself lucky that I ordered mine in the first week of July and it's already on it's way!!!

But I do feel sorry for those that ordered earlier and still have not had their cars built or allocated a build date yet.

Hold in there brother & sisters!

Congrats to s4n9 and shakespeare on the good news too!!!

Well, I've tried to find some webcams at the port of Brememerhaven, but the cameras don't seem to go around to where the Morning Camilla is.
Bremerhavener Entwicklungsgesellschaft Alter/Neuer Hafen mbH & Co. KG: Webcams

Can anyone else find a shot of it in port?
