Expected Delivery?

[boltonredgt]

What build week were you? I've not heard that boat mentioned on here before and it looks like it's currently in Morocco, having been to Turkey and Greece before that. Can't see anywhere in the last ports suggesting it has been to Barcelona recently?

I am assuming this is the correct one?

So, looking at that I'm thinking your car built a while ago? All this ship spotting is very sad really

Morini,it left Barcelona last night about 2 hours before Laudace arrived. Yes it is in Tangiers at the moment but if you check on the Tyne docks website ( cannot remember the web address as I am at work at the moment) the Euro Spirit is expected in on the 10th.
It was originally a week 19 build but got the call last week telling me it was built. Seems like they are building a week early.
Yes its sad not only have I been watching Laudace but the shipping movements out of Barcelona and into Sheerness and Tyne. Once the car arrives I will get a life

Me too! Fed up of waiting and being down to one car. Mine was week 18 and I believe it was actually built week 18 as I got an email off dealer yesterday saying it is sat at the dock in Barcelona waiting for a boat.

He didn't say anything about the Euro Spirit so I am working on the assumption that it'll be on the L'Audace as that leaves this afternoon. I'd be expecting ours to go to Sheerness rather than Tyne as the dealer is closer to Sheerness.

I do like that colour.

Why do you have to wait 3 weeks for delivery?

 

[CJ1985]

It's with Motability and the lease on my current one ends 27th so have to wait till 28th. It's just how they do it lol

It is nice mate, no free tech pack?

Just been informed today by the dealer that my 5DR FR 1.4 was at the docks this morning and has been assigned to a ship, I'm assuming mine is going to Sheerness too as the dealer is down there (despite me living in Newcastle, the only issue using a broker!).

I'm hoping it is on L'Audace which is due to arrive at Sheerness on the 13th May, according to Vessel Finder.

L'Audace left Barcelona a few hours ago and is on its way to Sheerness. ETA 13/05/2014.

Indeed it is. Hoping our car is on there too.

On Motability some car's have an advance payment then your DLA covers the monthly payment over 3 years.

If I ordered a manual Leon SE with TP, its the same price as SE without TP. But because I need an auto The leon SE without TP is £200 and the SE with TP is £400, tried to get Seat to pay the extra as I felt this was wrong but didn't get any where. They said it's something to do with DSG's being harder to sell at the end of the lease.

Didn't have the extra £200 so ordered it without TP, didn't really feel like i would use the extra's so am not to bothered.

Ours is from lookers Manchester as well. Are you dealing with Ian.
Looks like Euro Spirit is off to Le harve next and if its the same as past routes onto Rotterdam before Tyne. Not listed arriving at the Tyne on the 10th now but I would guess at possibly 14th.

 

[Master2k5]

Yes Ian it is... i have brought 4-5 cars off him in the past and he always does me a good deal.

When does yours come i have only just ordered mine have you test drove on what you think?

Iam just off plodder lane.

Ordered 17th March 5 door 184FR DSG Nevada White - quoted 12 weeks. Convenience, winter, paddles, LED, Titanium, technology (obviously!), dealer not too helpful but got order number from Seat Customer care and info that it's in build next week (17) and to call back in a couple of weeks for progress.

Seat CC told me today that car arrived in UK yesterday and call back 24-48hrs to see progress. That does not seem to tie in with any arriving boat - Sheerness expected as I am in SE.

Galicia docked in Sheerness yesterday. It then went on to Zeebruge. There seem to be three boats doing the trip regularly (plus another one boltonredgt mentioned from a different shipping company).

The ones I've been watching are

L'Audace MMSI 224876000
LA Suprise MMSI 255805450
GALICIA MMSI 224548000

Thanks Morini - sounds like Seat CC know what they are talking about. any idea how long from docking I can expect to be able to collect?

 

[morini]

Couldn't stand not knowing any longer, so phoned Seat customer services to find out where the car was. The friendly chap said he needed to phone their retail sales department and would ring me back (yeah, yeah thinks me). In fairness, brownie points to SCC as a short time later he phoned as promised to confirm the car was indeed on L'Audace and also gave me the order number.

Tracking the boat with much more interest now! It is trundling towards the Strait of Gibraltar at a heady 13.4 knots

I received a phone call from the dealer yesterday on a confirmed build week for my Cupra. I was told a estimated build week 22 a couple of weeks back but its been brought forward a couple of weeks to week 20 which is next week I believe. I ordered March 31st. So hopefully will be here early June.

I ordered on Feb 8th and yet somehow we have the same build week... If its not here until early June then my dealer will have some explaining to do! I've been told I'll have it by the last week of May.

Meant to say that I got mine on Friday, 3 week wait for a pre-built car. Worth noting for anyone else getting a stock car that mine came from somewhere South where they suffered from the sandstorms/smog. My car literally had sahara sand spewing out of every orifice, cleaned up now but the dealer didnt do a good job, anyway...
