totally agree with matchboy. sounds like a lazy dealer to me. my tax disc came in the post this morning exactly 1 week after I picked my plate.

My disc still hasn't turned up, and it's been 8 days. Wouldn't surprise me if they forgot to process it  :rolleyes:

Indeed, Schelde Highway, Weser Highway and Autoprestige are all due in Emden within the next 10 hours. Doesn't mean they'll be heading to the UK though. Neckar Highway has just left for Grimsby.

So glad to see I am not the only one spending my time tracking and predicting ships in almost real time  :grin: :grin: Really should do some work though  :evil:

The tracker seems to be back online again, but still showing 3 weeks. As Valenni says, changes to it seem to happen overnight so I'll be checking again in the morning in the (most likely) vain hope that it will have changed to 10 days and that it might land in Grimsby on Saturday morning.

Mine started at BW37 and has just flipped from 3 weeks to 10 days overnight.  Hope you get the same...

I only just noticed your footer about the BW. Mine was also stated as 37 for build but only went to "transit" mid week 38. You could be on the boat too :smiley:

Changed to 10 days today so I guess it's on a boat.  :smiley:

Finished build 6 days ago, went into transit(4 weeks) 5 days ago, changed to  in transit (3 weeks) yesterday and in transit (10 days) today.  My dealer did say that my car had been "marked for next available slot" when it left the factory so it shouldn't have to wait around long for a place on a boat. Didn't really hold out much hope that it would do any good, looks like I was wrong.  :rolleyes:

I AM happy for you ginnes, honestly   :whistle:

Flipped over to 7 days overnight :laugh:,  allycat45 I'll save you the trouble this time "Me Bast8rd, it's not fair"

Hope yours starts moving soon.
