I could be completely wrong too but my delivery date is next week estimated handover day is 23rd and the only ship I can see that has left Cuxhaven for Southampton yesterday was that one

Replied !

For the others benefit, jdc's car was made the day before the christmas shutdown, so a little bit ahead of us. I reckon only by a few days though

Don't want to dash anyone hopes but mine has been at port since the 4th Jan and is anticipated at dealer next week (wc 17th), hoping to get a more exact date tomorrow when my dealer calls.

That makes sense if yours was a mid-december build. And is probably on the same ship as jdcs now!

I didn't know BMW used Stena Glovis and tbh I'm not sure I'd want my car on one of their ships...

Sure you'll be fine though

Reading these forums America has had deliveries for G20 M340i on the Glovis Sunlight reported, assume they must use it, its the only one that fits the time schedule if my ETA is right that I can find anyway, guess i will find out soon enough.

If it is I just hope I dont get a sinking feeling.....

Probably do then. I was just going by a news article I found online which mentioned BMW shipping their 2 millionth car from Cuxhaven and it only mentioned UECC and DFDS. I know they also use Wallenius Wilhelmsen from Bremerhaven so maybe they just book them on whatever's available.

I see Autopride left Cuxhaven for Southampton about half an hour ago and that will definitely have beemers on board.

There are various sites, but I use https://www.myshiptracking.com

Click on the filter (funnel) icon, then click Voyage and put Cuxhaven and Southampton as departure and destination.

PS sorry, didn't answer your question - due in tomorrow at 23:41

Just wondering if that's been confirmed by genius or the dealer, reason I ask is my dealer told me it was status 5500 when it was actually 1200 at the time. I actually corrected the dealer and he was shocked I knew more than him and proceeded to apologies to me, haven't clue why I was told this as a week later it was 5500.

From dealer, ive not been able to access genius on any device for at least 6 weeks for some reason. Dealer has confirmed it a couple of times now as I check in every couple of days with them and others have suggested it is likely due to lack of transport drivers and software updates required. That being said who knows, so long as I get to pick it up next week I dont care haha.

Too true, I am just clutching at straws as I don't want anymore delays.

Just imagine within 24 hours of picking it up, all this malarkey will be forgotten

Very true. I'm picking mine up on Saturday and then spending the next three days watching NFL playoffs. Probably won't drive it again until Tuesday

Probably have the same then, check in and see.

Was thinking today on the school run I have had 15 plus new cars over the years, never followed any and the reason is I have not needed, told it would be with me by x and generally was or arrived early, except one that I recall, would of been the same if my October delivery happened, its now become a daily task checking in here and genius, Thinking next motor regardless will now have me checking

Must admit I've been a bit obsessive with this one. Not sure if it's the uncertainty around deletions or just the desperate need to break the monotony of working from home

I always have worked from home, well several years anyway, delays made me start looking, deletions started the addiction.

Edit: From genius "I can't currently see the delivery date. A new date hasn't been uploaded."

[tyranniux]

Confirmed date to dealer of 21st Jan, dealer thinks they may just quote the Friday to be safe so fingers crossed for mid week next week
