Delay in Delivery

Re: Delay in Delivery
GT475, you can track the Oberon here OBERON - 9377509 - Vessel's Details and Current Position
It is the same site I was using for tracking the FIDELIO (The one the car was supposed to be on).
I think it will make a stop to Belgium (Zeebrugge) and then UK (Southampton)before heading our way.
My dealer confirmed to me tonight the car was on that ship.
He's got all the accessories (side steps, rear seat DVDs, hitch, remote) ready.
Got to call the tire/rim guy to tell him it will be a bit later than plan but he has them and waiting for me.
Dealer told me I should take possession during the week of Jan 10-14.

Re: Delay in Delivery
The ship is currently near Gothenburg (Sweden) and schedule to arrive tomorrow (dec 17) and leaving the same day for Bremerhaven (Germany) the same day.
It should be in port (Bremerhaven) for 2 days (18-19 Dec) and the cars will be loaded then.
To Zeebrudge (Belgium) , then UK and finally heading to North America
Here's the schedule (subject to change) but so far looks on time or ahead.

Re: Delay in Delivery
According to the Wallenius & Welhelmsen logistic schedule, there is only 1 ship leaving Germany (Bremerheaven) around that time and arriving in Halifax around dec 30 and it is the OBERON. If your dealer told you that your car is shipping around that time, I think there is a good probability it is (will be) on that shipment.
The ship is currently near Gothenburg (Sweden) and schedule to arrive tomorrow (dec 17) and leaving the same day for Bremerhaven (Germany) the same day.
It should be in port (Bremerhaven) for 2 days (18-19 Dec) and the cars will be loaded then.

Quick update: ship is in Bremerhaven, hopefully of dock out today.
Cross fingers that the bad weather in Europe is not affecting the loading ops.
For those who are interested to see what the docks look like:

Re: Delay in Delivery
I ordered my Q5 on 17 August and received about a month ago from downtown Audi, I asked my rep in Nov. about delays for other vehicles esp. outside GTA orders, said they have a larger allotment of vehicles than smaller dealers and they receive priority on shipments. I see you're in Guelph so that is probably the issue.....if you ordered in Toronto you would have your Q5 already.

Re: Delay in Delivery
I am not sure if I have something unique or not. I ordered a 3.2L, with Nav, S-Line, B&O, and Drive Select.
I don't just want it, I NEED it. I didn't even think about planning for this long of a wait for delivery...
It better be on the Oberon!
