Just curious and stupid question. Did they give you other ETA dates before that? Just because most are saying that they can get some in April/May now...

I want to sell my current vehicle, but don't want to get stuck without a car. So when do dealers know the delivery date?

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
The dealer told me today that the Q5 is off the boat and on the truck. Expected delivery to me is now early February.

When i purchased the vehicle in Sept they told me end of the year - early Jan. Then they changed that to Mid feb late last year. The revised date has not changed. They told me i was one of the few that got my order for Feb. Most were pushed to March/April.

I got the call today that my Q5 has landed in Halifax. Since I am in Edmonton I'm thinking 7-10 days from now.

I ordered mine this week (Tuesday) and I was told a beginning of May delivery. That's a little over 3 months.

I don't know where the truck went (AWOL?) but it didn't arrive until yesterday.
The dealer will have it ready for me on Tuesday. That is exactly 4.5 months from order (Sept. 23, 2010) to delivery (Feb. 8, 2011). It is also consistent with what my dealer told me when I ordered - a February delivery.

Only a couple of days to go!
