Re: Ordered one
Hi Folks,
I am newly registered to the forum but have been using the site and this post over the past few weeks to get the inside track on lead times and sneak previews before my RS4 arrives - so thanks it has been really helpful...but also agonising at the same time seeing others taking delivery whilst mine has sat in Emden for 2 weeks
Dans, out of interest how did you find out that yours was being delivered tomorrow and how long did it sit in the UK port? Mine arrived at Grimsby yesterday and I am desperate for it to get to the dealer in time for me to pick up at the weekend.
Cheers.
Re: Ordered one
Mine has been sitting at the uk port for over a week, and it took the dealer to phone the transport company to check when it will be collected! Thursday is what I’ve been told, but let’s see!!!duncjohn wrote: ↑Wed Apr 11, 2018 10:05 pmHi Folks,

I would be patient though, as I’m not sure there’s a lot the dealers can do, and they all seem to arrive at every point at different times, doesn’t appear to be any consistency! Both mine and Graeme’s cars were built in the same week, mine shipped from emden a week before, but his has arrived a day earlier!! Who knows why...!!
Re: Ordered one
Thanks, and yes I need to be more patient...after all the dealer did me a favour by switching my order in to replace their showroom order. I'll stop short of offering to go and pick it up from Grimsby myself...
Although it would be great to see "Order Status 40" switch to "Order Status 60" when I check in the morning.

I wouldn’t hold your breath on any status changes; mines still on status 40 !!!duncjohn wrote: ↑Wed Apr 11, 2018 10:59 pmThanks, and yes I need to be more patient...after all the dealer did me a favour by switching my order in to replace their showroom order.

I'll cancel my existing policy on Friday and carry the NCB over

Re: Ordered one
The tracker is rubbish, mine was still on 40 when the car was at the dealer. The day I went to pick it up it changed to call your dealer to arrange delivery. It will soon be here I have had mine a week already!duncjohn wrote: ↑Wed Apr 11, 2018 10:59 pmThanks, and yes I need to be more patient...after all the dealer did me a favour by switching my order in to replace their showroom order.
