    going to be keeping a close eye on the Tombarra for the next couple of weeks!

    • To give polo GTi people an idea, the cars so far will sit at the factory for 2 weeks before booing a train to Bremerhaven where they will sit for at least a week before going on a boat. Then, expect a 6 week journey to Australia.

        • Give it a bit more time lowlee, I think mine and Gavs was at the factory car park for 2 weeks and the port terminal for about 2 weeks. Hang in there

            Mine was built on the 9/3 and shipped 10/4...

            I'd imagine your car will find a boat any day now...

                Yes.
                Built in Spain
                Transported by train to Germany and then shipped internationally from there

                      Yeah I know the feeling on both counts, but you can't do anything about it I'm afraid, it's frustrating I know. Take a break for a couple of days from this forum, and you might be in for a surprise.

                      My problem now is trying to find where the hell my boat is The Morning Carol should be docking on the 8th in Durban and still no sign on the tracking site. Hope Capt. Jack Sparrow and his pirates haven't taken her

                        • Because that's wher the polo factory is sorry, couldn't resist they make the 3 door rhd polo in Pamplona and it was probably easier to just add production to one line. They ship out of Bremerhaven because it's the biggest car port in Europe and most of the euro manufacturers already send their stuff on boats out of there.

                          • I think i get what the ETA data i got means now.
                            My car was built on 4/4, left spain 11/4, and left "Bremerhaven" on a boat to Aus 5/5 to arrive here 15/6.
                            Which would all make sense going by the amount of time everyone says these steps take.
                            Perhaps the tracking site doesn't update their data all the time? Do they still operate like normal on weekends i wonder?

                            • Not sure gavs, had a quick look at the cruise thread and it seems very long! I'll keep it in mind though.. What date is it?

                              • Tombarra arrives in Freo 1 week from today. To say I'm getting excited is an understatement.
