If I have ordered from Chelmsford VW. Which port is this? Would it be sheerness?

Yes that will be Sheerness, which makes ship tracking much easier, its the Malacca Highway and all it does is go back and forth from Emden, alternating from the VW and Audi areas of Emden each time

Grimsby. My 2 Listers Nuneaton sourced cars came via Grimsby. Too far north for Sheerness, too far south for Tyne.

For reference I ordered January 27th and received the 5A notification on July 3rd.

Not a clue! I am quite surprised tbh. I was expecting it at Grimsby as well as my dealer is just down the road from Grimsby. Apparently cars in the middle of the UK however can go to either Sheerness or Grimsby. Either way, not gonna complain

Just spoke with my dealer and the car is on the Isar highway due at Grimsby tomorrow and I should have it in 5-10 days he’s promised me. Best get my dodo juice order on as I want some wax for the car.
