Thanks John

Dealer still saying week of the 20th November.
But as of yet its still in Mexico.

I'm working on if my car isn't on a boat by 23rd October it won't be at the dealers by 20th November.

As I'm sure people have said it takes 2/3 weeks sailing time to Southampton.

Haven't been on Bimmerpost long and no wasn't aware he is a scammer.

Don't need people like that when trying to get help and advice.

Checked on BMW Genius today and my car is still at 195 which doesn't make sense. Can it take a few days for the code to update ?

Normal at this point until it's been touched, then things move very quickly!

Thanks for the update. Here's hoping - it must of been on the Arc Integrity as the dates align from when it left Mexico (went to 195 on 25th Sept). BMW Genius did state delivery week commencing 23/10 so hopefully mine gets touched very soon

[ramparts]

You might find it went to Germany first and hopped onto the auto
star ( docking in Southampton in 90 minutes ).

I know that as it’s where my car is

Mines still on 195 with the same eta delivery date, fingers crossed it’ll update next few days.

If it wasn’t on that boat Niagara Highway is on her way over as we speak, be in Southampton on Monday 23/10

Mines is on that boat I think. It left on the 5th or 6th October and is currently at sea.

Thanks to ramparts, he was able to find this out....cheers mate!

I then (for the first time) checked with BMW Genuis and they more or less confirmed the same but then said 'The estimated delivery week is week 46: November 12 to November 18, 2023'

Silly question (which I should have asked at the time) but is that the date the car gets to the dealership or me? If it was dispatched onto the Niagara on the 5th October and gets into Southampton on the 23rd.....then another 20 to 26 days to the dealership or me?

Thanks

That's handover to you

Once into Southampton, it'll get PDI'd, normally takes 5-10 days depending on the number of cars ahead of you, then it is released to distribution whereby your dealer will get a wagon to pick it up and delivery it to them.

Dealers CAN request they do the PDI onsite themselves, speeding this process up a touch

Well still at status 195 at midday today

[ramparts]

Once scanned off a ship , you will actually go “ backwards” to 193 , which is storage at port.

Rather confusing

Confusing indeed, I didn't know that. Still holding on to a bit of hop delivery is some time next week, 3 months in an awful hire car is enough !

At least you have a car been managing without for a few months

Unfortunately my company car packed in before this has been delivered so they hired me a Peugeot (I know) but you are right I don't have a lot to moan about but really.

Need the new car, especially as we have a touring caravan, new car has the retractable tow bar installed. Lost a few holidays this year due to my old car breaking down.

Who loves the BMW app and the Nearly Yours you are greeted with when you open it....

I've been in severald different awful hire cars for the last 15 months which stink and have been abused to no end.....God awful and lost my passion for driving! Currently in Nissan Quiskai (can't even spell it) First world problems I guess!

Yeah I got my Vin and got the app and can see the 'nearly yours' bit....got excited momentarily lol

Mine was also built in July with same ETA delivery w/c 23/10.

Thought it could of been on the ARC Integrity which docked into Southampton on 15/10 but our codes havent updated to show arrival at port.

I think its on Niagara Highway which gets into Southampton 24/10

Ordered back in March. Been in touch with BMW UK they given me a goodwill gesture for the delay. I'll use that for the service plan
