Pretty sure we wont here anything until Friday.  Seems that the tracker misses the build process and jumps straight to "in  transit".

Just so you guys know - I think the tracker only updates at around 8,45 am - it's not very "live". I think some BW15 guys got their first update on the Wednesday so you may hear something tomorrow, although I didn't hear anything until Friday morning - and yes, it just went straight to "in transit"

My BW15 GTD is still in transit supposedly although hoping it;s been delivered to Port of Tyne this afternoon - just had a lokk at google earth and I don't think I've seen such an expanse of parking - absolutely huge - can't quite make out the car models all li ned up but I'm guessing there's a lot of Nissan's waiting to be shipped out...

No movement for me...

I wonder if GTDs and GTIs move at different times...? I've ordered a GTI PP...

Ah well!

I checked out some earlier posts about which boats are used and I noticed that cars going south use Sheerness (SNS) port. The cars generally come from Emden in Germany.

Being sad, I checked Marinetraffic and 'African Highway' left Emden for Sheerness this afternoon. Assume I'm going to receive my 5b text (and probably 5c) by tomorrow morning!!

I'll let you know in the morning...
