Australasia Grenadier Delivery & Wait Times in Australia.

[SirJimR]

The first Aussie owners might be driving their Grenadier by 31 May

I think that's being mildly optimistic given all the issues with quarantine at the ports, plus then add on pre-delivery works etc.

That's assuming the Grenadiers are off loaded in Melb. ..
Does the tracking app mention Port Kembla and Newcastle?
They were being touted as likely ports of entry to avoid the massive delays in Melbourne due to the biosecurity quarantine/clean process...

I can’t see the next port after Melbourne (you have to have a premium subscription).

Was speaking to a MB dealer yesterday (wife’s new car) and he was saying the backlog is reducing quicker than was thought a couple of weeks ago.

Moreover, he said that if a ship was carrying only cars from EU, then quarantine was much quicker.

It's listed in the thread:

South African Grenadiers arrive in Durban

I wonder how many Grenadiers were sent to Durban. (counted 8)

I presume, and perhaps hope , that is not your reality?

Unfortunately, I'm being absolutely serious. Since the lockdowns, people forgot how to "people." No thought, no follow-through, no pride in work, zero f*s to give. Society is broken.

Back to the topic at hand, I can appreciate the ship tracking. I was a first model order holder of the first year BMW K1600GT and a similar forum had all the ship tracking info available. It was surprising what info could be found if you knew where to look.

I hope our Australian members get some great news soon, and their Grenadiers are delivered as quickly as can be.

100% agree. It's why I quit the profession I was in as I was sick and tired of baby sitting other so called "licensed professionals". I come to the conclusion about 6 months in to the hyped up COV nonsense, that idiots would prevail and low and behold 1.5 years after it started, everyone with a "professional license" in my industry turned out to be nothing short of sh**! Zero f***s other than their overpriced pay checks landing in their hands. Sadly IA seem to not give many f***s, and risk now falling in to the same category of clown that I tried to escape...

Actually - it is!!

After departing Durban, he Don Carlos sailed to Reunion and then departed for Melbourne yesterday.

Expected to arrive 10 April with the famous "batch of 92"

That's awesome. Hopefully as they aren't from Asia they don't get caught in the ship show.

The ship docks Melbourne in 5 days - so Sydney a week later?

The ferry from Malaysia to Singapore in the 1950's ?

 

[Joey]

Same... clearly a few wrinkles, I don't mind a few months of ironing

and no Ineos premises yet here in Perth, from what I can tell. Clearly nothing is imminent

Showroom is just about finished Sam, it's right next to Mahindra in East Vic Park. They have a P02 there (I got a sneak peak)...

 

[Tazzieman]

Don Carlos?

No that's the Sin Kslowlee

Nah arriving in Sydney early May. But rego and final homologation etc will take a few weeks so late may early June drive away is more realistic.

Never in doubt. Perfect timing for us as we'll be in Euro until early July.

Now we know why you have been so relaxed about the delivery delays - they have fitted your travel schedule
