    Nice! I did some 'reverse engineering' and it looks like you can check out WWL's routes on their website. Looks like there's two of their ships due to land in Fremantle on the 10th of April, then the 23rd of April. I guess the 18th is a dealer estimate date and will be confirmed once the car is actually loaded.

    I think I missed the auto-generated email for build completion since I signed after it was built. Going by the above shipping schedules we should both get a shipment email within the next couple of weeks!

    Cheers
    Hi again,

    Got my vin and engine number today, also confirmation of date of landing in port being 3rd May which is a bit later than promised. Dealer doesnt have the ship name as yet.

    Looking at a shipping tracker I can see that the Toscana is taking a mega journey from Bremerhaven leaving tomorrow and arriving in Fremantle on 1st May so I assume thats where mine is.

      Nice! What date were you originally quoted? The date of the 18th I was given doesn't marry up with any Wilhelmsem arrivals in Freo so I think I might be in the same boat, no pun intended.

        Was told the vehicle would be delivered to me by late April, no specific date. Now looking at mid May being more likely taking it close to 4 months from time of order which is ok but any longer would have me checking the contract terms.

          Got my ship name from the dealer and to my surprise, Wilhelmsen have a scheduled arrival date of 4th April in Freo. Earlier than what the dealer said when purchasing the car. Might be a late April delivery after all!

            Awesome news. I'm still waiting on the ship name for mine, i'm hoping they've overstated the delivery date for me but will wait impatiently ��

                Lucky, I guess! The dealer showed me their inventory tracking and there wasn't any available in the country when I signed the contract. My spec is the exact same as yours too!

                      Sounds lucky though yours was likely built in 2018? I wanted a 2019 built vehicle plus there is next to no stock in WA in anything other than 132's or Allspace both of which dont appeal to me.

                        • Hi all,

                          Silly question, I got a check engine light when I start the vehicle, but when I actually start the ignition, it went off. Should I be concern with that light? Cheers.

                            So when the dash lights up but engine isn't running the CEL is on but when the engine starts it goes off?

                              Yep, thats exactly it.

                                Nothing to worry about that's normal. The warning lights illuminate to show they are working when you first go to what would have been 'accesories' with a key ignition.

                                Took these two pics just now. CEL on before starting. Then once engine started it turns off.
