It has landed

A few days ago I got word from my dealer that the ETA for my car to land in NZ on the 28/11/12.

I went to the Ports Of Auckland website and stalked out all boats arriving and I found one which fit the bill.

TRANS FUTURE 7
TOYOFUJI SHIPPING NZ LTD.

Toyofuji was a good hint. Further more the vessel is a car transporter.

I followed the arrival of the boat and even drove past at night, but couldn't see much. This morning I loaded up a webcam which overlooks the ports.

My car is one of the many cars unloaded this morning

I can't wait for delivery. Have already got a shark fin and getting opti coat and window tints done at the dealer.

Luka, that's some serious stalking!

Hope you get her soon. Lots of sleepless nights for you though as by the time it gets to the dealer and optiguarded etc you'll probably be looking a the week beginning 10th December.

I may need to pop in to the dealer before then. I have managed to scrape some money together for a few very simple TRD additions and the Beatsonic shark fin has arrived on Tuesday.

Nights have been sleepless already.

I'll make sure to check the tyres and tell you if it was.
