fazz Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 My invisible car is currently at Grimsby, but dealer said it takes 10 days to get to them.

ToRnado Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 What was your BW? and did you receive a stage 6 text/email? mines 5b and on the way to Grimsby, or thats what the tracker says anyway..... 5b means the car is at Emden. It could take anything from 1 day to 3 weeks before it gets on a boat to Grimsby. fazz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevai Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 What was your BW? and did you receive a stage 6 text/email? mines 5b and on the way to Grimsby, or thats what the tracker says anyway..... BW 10 mate. Never received a text or email, I just check the tracker with an unhealthy obsession at 8.46am every day. My dealer said it WILL take 10 days from Grimsby at the moment because they're chocka. Apparently they can't even get new cars off the boats for a while until they make space. So... set your expectations accordingly, and be pleasantly surprised if they are exceeded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is already at Grimsby and dealer reckons with a little luck they might receive it by 31st March. Then they need a day or two for PDI etc. Change your week off!

stevai Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 muffinman, Tom, FBF, and others in the race.... My dealer just informed me that my car is already on its way from Grimsby to the dealership, despite telling me yesterday it would be no sooner than 10 days! Hopefully you'll all be in a similar...... boat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 2000 Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 I wonder how they know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevai Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 I wonder how they know? Their system tracker is a tad more advanced than the online one we use. They can see exactly where the vehicle is at the port (which compound etc) and when it has been loaded on a transporter and on its way. If your dealer can't tell you this info, I suggest you go Chuck Norris on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
