Has anyone on here had there car arrive at Emden without ever being logged as on a ship?
Logically it should have been and I hope it was but as logic doesn’t appear to be VW’s strong point. I also would have expected the 5b notification this morning the same as you if it was. I’ll check with my dealer though.paulrodgers7 wrote:It was indeed the Morning Cara, although I didn’t know that until it docked in Emden, it sounds like yours will have been on it too, it’s all getting very real now
Well mine was built 6th April and I finally get it this first week of June.l3rady wrote:Just got my 5a notification from the tracker this morning although worried that others have shown long lead times between 5a and actually getting the car. Can anyone give any rough indication when I'm likely to get the car?
The dealer told me they roughly expect 4-6 week delivery times from build. We are currently on the end of week 5 from the build and apparently, it has only just left Emden...
Well it’ll be over a year from the time I ordered to the time I’ll eventually receive it but from reports of other owners on this forum it sounds like it is well worth the waitRyanH wrote: Sat Jun 01, 2019 4:32 pmLogically it should have been and I hope it was but as logic doesn’t appear to be VW’s strong point.

My dealer has checked their system and said there is no ship listed next to my car. He also used marine traffic.com to guess that it might have been on the Morning Cara or is on the Hoegh Trooper. I love the accuracy.
Never mind, I haven’t waited as long as some so can’t complain too much.
I'm still waiting for my stage 5b, 5c, 6 and 7 notifications and I've had the car 2.5 weeks! At this stage I'd rely more on your dealership keeping you up to date.Trantor wrote: Sat Jun 01, 2019 10:53 pm I too had some good news this morning. Received a tracker message saying my car has reached "stage 5a - in transit: left the factory". I placed my order mid June 2018. Looks like, for some of us that have been waiting nearly a year or more, the end is finally in sight!
Nice one, it is quite the buzz receiving that wee notificationTrantor wrote: Sat Jun 01, 2019 10:53 pm I too had some good news this morning.

Perhaps it’s because yours was ordered before mine but who knows. I’ve been keeping an eye on a few, including the Grand Duke. It gets there when it gets there though, I’ll just keep waiting like everyone else. At least I know the car is built and in transit so that’s a good start.paulrodgers7 wrote:Sorry to hear that, there have been a couple of vehicle carriers heading clockwise from Port Elizabeth since the Morning Cara left, Grand Duke was one.
