Times from UK port to dealer
« on: 14 May 2015, 17:57 »
Hi Guys & Girls

Just wondering what times people found their cars moved from the port in the UK to the dealer?

Mine came into port yesterday so was just curious.

Thanks

Ben

Tyne bound cars usually move quite quickly, but my car has been at Emden for 2 weeks today. 2 ships have left Emden for Tyne in the time my car has been there, but the 1st was only a day after. Confident it will move tomorrow or over the weekend - there are 3 Emden to Tyne shippings between tomorrow and Sunday that usually carry VW cars.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

Depends on when the dealer requests the car!

mine has been at UK port since last Thursday, but dealer didn't request it until yesterday (apparently no space at dealership) it should be with dealer Monday!

2 days is quick. My dealer told me if it got delivered on Monday they should be able to get it to me by the weekend.

This next week is going to drag.

That's impressive. Hopefully my dealer is under promising and will have it sooner. That is optimistic. Your car looks great, I saw it on another thread. Must be great to have your hands on it. how long were you waiting?

I got my hands on a cancelled order that was already build sat at emden, so in total only waited 6 weeks. It's missing the sat nav I wanted but otherwise is awesome. What have you ordered?

I ordered a GTI PP, DSG, Pure White, Keyless & Tech pack.

Really excited to get it now.

That was lucky to get a cancelled order. I have been pretty lucky to date I ordered 25th Feb and got from stage 3 to stage 6 in the last 8 days.
