Sherwin did tell me a couple of days ago that the demonstrator they were waiting for was at the port waiting to be released. This must be it.
I wonder if there were any more there, as in customer cars.

Tijuan - Melbourne next stop
What's with all these Mexican sounding boat names?
The boats that sound Australian are probably heading to Acapulco right now to level it out.
HMS Strewth?
HMS Fair Dinkum just docked at Summer Bay
I just reconfirmed my quote with Shannons.
Got a link in vesselfinder? I can't find that ship?
Hopefully they them it off the boat quickly. It's 10-20 days in Port Kembla and Bris at the moment.TIJUCA, Vehicles Carrier - Details and current position - IMO 9377511 - VesselFinder

No I haven't but I reckon that it's BS.
@Davman that's not bad at all, what sort of excess $$, and is that unlimited car hire?
Just done an online quote with RAC WA, Value=$132500, as above, $1351/y. Roadside assist is separate through RAC WA.
In a heart beat. Drive it back to Sydney from Perth, perfect run in! Oil change as soon as I hit Sydney.
They come with 5 years roadside assist included
Late last week I received a similar call. This was the second update. The previous update the dealer had received from Ineos Australia was around 16 March and he'd phoned me shortly thereafter to say my vehicle was through the batch and hold and waiting to be shipped. This time he said the vehicle had been allocated (a vessel) and should be here early July...
Yeah, at least this is how it plays out when one is shipping privately. I’ve tracked shipments across oceans on shipfinder and it’s a mugs game at the end of the day as port timings aren’t visible.Late last week I received a similar call. This was the second update.

@grenadierboy: I've got no doubts you're exactly right about Ineos Aust. knowing "where and when": standard operating procedure for importers. Indeed they may well have alerted the dealers of full details but with a proviso that no other info. is released to customers... the date the ship is scheduled to arrive vs. actual berthing seems to be a best guess, judging by reports of Ro/Ro carriers riding at anchor waiting to unload in Melbourne and elsewhere... (the delays in Melb. etc must be having a significant knock-on effect on the car carriers' global schedules as a whole.)
I've got to the stage that it arrives when it arrives and they ask me for more money!!
