Re: Delay in Delivery
Wow! this is just silly! Only sensible explanation is that dealer was goofing around with your order and it didn't get to factory in normal time.
On the good side, you will LOVE your ride! And celebration starts soon. Now when I have car for over month, I miss first week excitement. I remember I was blown away by this experience!
Not that it's boring now, by far not. It still puts smile on my face every time I get to drive it.
Sooooo, have your champagne/wine/beer ready!

Re: Delay in Delivery
After few research and some posts on this site, I wanted to see (and track) the possible ship that my Q5 was supposed to be on.
Based on the arrival date that was given to me of the ship in Halifax (Dec 16) , I concluded that the only probable RORO cargo leaving Bremerhaven to Halifax around that period was the FIDELIO cargo (Sweden) from Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistic.

GT475, you can track the Oberon here OBERON - 9377509 - Vessel's Details and Current Position
Assuming the carrier is Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistic, and that the Audis are loaded in Bremerhaven, then mine must be on the Fidelio, as that is the only ship with a post-10 Jan sail date and arrival date on or before 26 Jan.
For anyone else expecting delivery the second week of February, the ship's schedule is:
Port Country Arrival Departure
BREMERHAVEN GERMANY 04/01/2011 12/01/2011
GOTHENBURG SWEDEN 13/01/2011 14/01/2011
ZEEBRUGGE BELGIUM 16/01/2011 16/01/2011
SOUTHAMPTON UNITED KINGDOM 17/01/2011 17/01/2011
HALIFAX, NS CANADA 24/01/2011 24/01/2011
NEW YORK, NY U.S.A. 26/01/2011 26/01/2011
BALTIMORE, MD U.S.A. 28/01/2011 28/01/2011
BRUNSWICK, GA U.S.A. 31/01/2011 31/01/2011
CHARLESTON,SC U.S.A. 01/02/2011 01/02/2011
I can confirm that the Fidelio is in Southhampton today - next stop is Halifax!
... as long as the winter storms don't cause something like the "Oberon" photo above
I'm tracking it at FIDELIO - 9332937 - Vessel's Details and Current Position

Re: Delay in Delivery
It took mine 1 week to do the Halifax - Montreal trip but that was over the New Year Holiday week.
Maybe yours will get to the dealer faster.
Exciting hey?

Re: Delay in Delivery
Back on topic...
Based on the date my Q5 was ship loaded, it landed in Halifax yesterday.
Now with the weather for travel I don't know how long it will take to get to Mississauga.
Hoping maybe to have it by Feb. 4th... if I'm lucky.

Re: Delay in Delivery
Anders81 where and when did you order your Q5 in Mississauga. I ordered mine in October and was told 3rd week of January to be in production and landing in Canada 2nd week of February?
