The lack of transparency from Porsche is frustrating… does your SA see that the car is awaiting QA check? Is 4400 the code for that? Mine is telling me that he doesn’t see anything. He had to call and ask.
Congratulations! I had my ‘final steps before delivery’ email today, so it’s starting to feel real!
Excellent result and looking forward to seeing some more photos when you get the opportunity.
Yay that is fantastic! Mine has slipped 3 weeks since August so that gives me hope that the current date for entry to dealer on 16th December might stick but who knows.
Just noticed your location, do you get cars shipped via Sheerness/Grimsby or do they go direct to Dublin/Belfast and get distributed? Apols if you or Tigerbalm have already answered this elsewhere.
I know that cars inbound for Ireland come through Dublin but I believe those for Northern Ireland come through Grimsby and across the Irish Sea into Belfast. I’m not 100% sure though as I never asked and just assumed. Importing to the UK from the EU would make it logical for the car to arrive at Grimsby.
My car has docked in Sheerness now, 7 days later. No word on any bits missing yet but it's still showing as Scheduled for Production on the app. It is scheduled to spend 2 weeks in the Port though so maybe they have work to do on it. Either way it is very welcome progress.
Excellent news... just off loading from Elbe Highway.
Direct from Emden to Dublin, since Brexit to stay within the common market and not attract customs charges. Pre-brexit it used to go via UK. Ironically, we get cars faster now due to direct shipping.
Ah ok thanks I had been looking at the KESS site and didn't see Dublin on it and wondered what they did. NI trickier I guess with customs but does seem an awful faff to ship to Grimsby, transport across the country and ship to Belfast when it's 2 hours drive from Dublin port.
Unfortunately no at the moment. I would have loved to have done factory collection with this car but was declined by Porsche AG. No reason given.
Me too! But I'm currently on my way to Australia so it might be a month or so before I collect it!
Interesting to compare your dates with mine... I haven't asked for an update for the last 9 days so don't know if I'm in production yet or if it starts tomorrow or further delayed.
