Hey lmao (and anyone else on this and most recent boats).

I was just wondering, has anyone worked out roughly how long their car was on a boat for?

My car was made 2 weeks ago. Today the Toyota lads logged in and saw it's still showing that it's at the wharf. But, they think it's on a boat and the system hasn't been updated.

Trying to figure out roughly how far away I am still.

Now I know it's made, this is killing me.
I think our cars are following a similar schedule. Fwiw, I asked my dealer for a guesstimate on when it will be delivered and they said September. I'm hoping that's conservative, but missing the worst of the winter weather might be a blessing in disguise :D

Quite possibly :O He's probably worried about the port congestion here in Aus at the moment. I heard some boats were stuck for 4 weeks holding Toyota's outside of Brisbane last month.

I actually went and checked out all the boats headed from Bremerhaven Port to Brisbane from about 2 weeks ago up until about 1 more week in the future. They are arriving end of July/early August.

Looks like we got off pretty light.
That RAV4 rise :|

Hey lmfao when's your dealer saying the car will be ready.
Last week he said I'd have it late this week so I've booked it in with the PPF guy.
I've been following up since Monday and now he's said that oh maybe next Friday.

I started this thread some 11 months ago and while the wait doesn't end for all of us today, it finally ends for me!

Congratulations I am happy for you. This thread has kept me going.
I just got a call from my dealer today and they told me that my car will be going into production so I should be expecting it in about 3 month?

Congrats!!!! Absolutely stunning! Can’t wait to see the PPF and plates install.

Thanks LMFAO for kicking this thread off. I gotta say, it really helped keep my sanity during the long wait.
