I’ve not had an update on mine yet, but as it left the factory on the same day, fingers crossed I’ll here the same info shortly. Out of interest has the details on the app updated at all?

I've had no update on the app, and I don't expect one, I think the next app update will be 5b when the car arrives at or leaves Germany.

Ok that would make sense I suppose. I’ll chase my dealer later this week for an update on shipping.

Chased my dealer this morning, car is on the ship! Due to arrive in Germany at around the 20th February then he estimates 2/3 weeks to UK. SO hoping for a collection around the second week and a 2020 plate registered car!

(Still no app update, seems to be stuck on build week confirmed. Email updates still coming through!)

Assuming we’re all on the same ship!

Didn't you get the name of the ship off your Dealer this morning mate ?

Finally got shipping details from my dealership. My car is on the Glovis Champion. Left SA on 11/02/20. Due in Emden before end the month. Still due at dealership before end March.

For reasons unknown, mine is on a ship to Bremerhaven, due there around the 24th Feb (then on to Emden). But at least mine is direct to Germany, the Glovis Champion seems to be making other stops along the way

I would imagine when your vehicle was shipped either there was no demand from other ports for vehicles to be transported or the ship was simply at capacity where as this may not be the case with @sc-red. And I am currently waiting to hear from the dealer what ship my new Polo is on, could be the same as sc-reds.

Thanks, and good luck, let us know when you hear which ship yours is on.

I ordered mine a manual Polo GTI on the 05/4/2019, about a week after my build was confirmed,it is confirmed for a build in the second week of May '19 looking at a potential June/July delivery, i live in Portugal, here my dealer stated that is build in Spain if these is relevant...

funny how everyone have build date and all that data. I have nothing. I oredered from Croatia, and they didn't give me any code or anything to track and recive info about my car.

If you go back to your dealer and ask for the VW order number and add this to the My VW app you will get most of the updates we have been getting. Or you can just ask the dealer to keep you informed every 2-3 weeks.

That's quite quick Pete, and better than expected, nice one

My car is now at Emden and my Dealer is saying 10 to 14 days

Although mine left the factory the same day, my car won’t be in Emden until next Saturday (7th) and will be a further 2-3 weeks from there. Watching sailing routes has aided my African geography, but just want my car now.

Mine still says with the factory on the app. What the experience on how long it takes to allocate a build date?
