Hi guys I was wondering could anyone help? I spoke to my dealership yesterday who after checking confirmed that my car is built and awaiting pick up for transport to N.Ireland. He however said he had no way of knowing how long this would take. Based on my location and the fact that the vehicle appears to be waiting on pickup,realistically how long should this take??

Thanks for your time..

Results may vary.....

 

Some people quote 4-5 weeks but obviously this can be down to several factors such as general logistics and geographic location. 

 

As you've over the water in NI, there's obviously an extra hop in the transport steps from factory to dealership.

 

Mine took around 2 weeks from being built to arriving at the dealership in southern England. I would hazard a guess at around 3 weeks for your car, depending on the route it takes. 

Mine was built week 40 last year. Was at UK port week 41, arrived at Northern Ireland dealer week 42 and I collected it week 43.

Stops in Liverpool first. As others have said takes about 2 or 3 weeks typically.

Apparently up to 10 days in port of exit, 2 days to cross and another 2 days before it gets a lift from the port here. Been told about 3 weeks from it getting to emden to dealer to collect.

Just to add mine has been in port of exit for 13 days now.

Well after speaking with SUK today they have 14 days to ship car from emden once it arrives. Mine arrived emden 23rd Feb so has to ship by 8th March.

With a bit of luck it should catch a ride this week then

Well since speaking with SUK had email from dealer saying should ev in next ship from emden to sheerness so looks like it's on Gran Canaria car which is due into emden in 3 hours.

Mine was at Emden on the 19th and I still seem to be waiting... or maybe my dealer has just forgotten to ring me to tell me it's moved... again!

Well, I've been toying with the idea of asking if I've been waiting the longest... (ordered 6th October) dont think I'll bother now!

Wow, I will stop complaining then as i ordered 28th September and I thought I was the longest wait.

Sorry to disappoint, I was looking at the routes from Emden, and Gran Canaria Car's next destination is Grimsby. I was hoping mine would be on the next boat to Sheerness - no indications when that will be

The gran Canaria had been doing Emden to sheerness route it has changed to Grimsby but the African Highway has switched to Emden Sheerness so hopefully on that.

The Weser Highway arrived in imingham today from

Emden and is heading back there tomorrow. Praying mine was on it or at least the next crossing in a few days.
