Just heard from the dealer that mine has arrived at the dealership for detailing after landing on the 10th. Not a bad turn around for this shipment by the sound of it.
Yep Grand Hero, and also one of the cars that got held extra long by Agriculture for additional quarantine. I wasn't expecting to hear from the dealer until later this week that it had been released and was going through compliance, they obviously moved fast once it was released.
Has your tracking status changed?
What is it currently?
Currently waiting on our ordered 162 Highline with R, DAP and Sunroof. We ordered 1st Jan apparently the dealer had one available on the next shipment which is due in at the end of the month. So we should have it by mid-feb.

Have you guys had the shipped email yet? I haven't. I was under the impression it took 6 weeks for the ship to get here once it leaves... Anyone else out there know more?

No further updates from dealer or auto emails. Was hoping for the shipped email this week. Im working on 4-6 weeks seems the usual
So I picked up the new ride yesterday afternoon from my dealership, and I am beyond impressed so far (noting I am coming from a run-around 2003 Mazda 3)!!!
The status on the tracking still says discharged so I don't think they care what happens beyond confirming it left the ship. The status on my VW custom page they sent me still say it's on the ocean LOL!
Regarding shipping time, it took the Grand Hero ~6 weeks to get to Port Kembla from Bremerhaven via the Cape of Africa. It took ~5 days from when it was confirmed as 'built' to actually going on the ship. Luckily my dealer gave me the VIN before it was even booked so I could check it daily to track it.

very nice!
The status of mine (also from the Grand Hero) also still says 'discharged' and according to VW it's still on a cruise, however as of today there is a shiny new Tiguan in my driveway. After 6ks not much to report except it got home in one piece. looks good, feels good.

When you hit 10k's that's the sweet spot
Will have a solid hour drive home from down the coast when we pick ours up, will be a fight between the Mrs and I who drives though I reckon!

Congrats! It feels good after the long wait doesn't it?
Managed to adjust to all the new technical features pretty quickly, loving having Android Auto at my fingertips.
Wondering what the average time from Docks to Dealer to Delivery is? Got told on Tuesday my Tiguan is ‘at the docks’ but have very little additional info.. any tips? Thanks
