Delphinus Leader should have docked in Vigo at 3am but looks like he’s had to waste some time going round in circles, seems like he’s finally headed in.
Noticed the Glovis Sunlight is due in Emden on the 25th as well, it’s not stopping at Vigo.
Yeah Vigo looks a bit busy so she probably had to wait!
I hadn't been keeping an eye on the Sunlight as she never stopped at PE after leaving Durban but there is a chance some of us might have their car on her, my dealer hasn't given me an update to say which ship my car is on, have you been told?
Nothing from dealer, every time I go in my sales guy isn’t there and i get told he’ll call me, still waiting.

I'm sure he'll be available when it's time to hand over the money.

GTI's really starting to appear now. Seen three in 2 days . Stratford upon Avon, Kenilworth and Leamington Spa.
The red one today had the pano roof and brescias, looked very smart.

I saw that, maybe we have (our cars could be on the Sunlight) or maybe she's got to drop off cars for another manufacturer there, it probably won't just be VW's that she's carrying.

Griff/Gnome: Any confirmation what ship your cars are on? I got the 5a notification the day after you 2, so highly likely all 3 cars are on the same ship.
If Delfinius leader is due in Southampton for Weds, if it's not headed for the Scandinavian countries, a quick stop at Rotterdam or Amsterdam might see it in Emden for Fri/Sat.

No confirmation, guess based on when it visited Port Elizabeth and when we got our 5a message.

So you're tracking that now? If it didn't leave port until the 29th, mine could be on it. Another set of Michelins to buy!

I could no agree more. My dealer last week "you'll get it when it has passed the emissions test". Really.....
Another young chap at the dealer said it may take a week from the factory to the docks. I suggested he go away and look at Google Maps!!!.
