Not sure, depends how long to unload, will paste the link in here so you can watch and if you save to favourites one click and instant there - I think!! Stuff, it's been hot and humid here and I been mowing lawns! Time to get one of the MX's out tonight and cruise for a coffee

Still docked, not sure how long it takes to unload and how many there are, you can see 'Patricks' holding yard across the road from where it's docked - hold cursor over the next ship and it says its name, I think it's the Hyundai Unity

'Oregon Highway' has now departed Port of Brisbane and currently heading NORTH! No worries, it has to clear Moreton Island and then head south - destination Port Kemba!!

http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/def...tery=-27.33577

Update!! the 'pilot' has picked the ship up off Mooloolaba and told him 'you idiot!! Port Kembla is THAT way!! hahahaha

Just has to clear Cape Moreton then it's south and I'd say in PK by Monday night!

Good luck! My original order was for a GT MT 24 weeks ago [2 July] and that still won't be built in either January or February!!!! So at the earliest I wouldn't have that car until at least March/April or beyond. I get the feeling GT's have been scaled back in order to clear some of the backlog of GTS orders

Even the guy at TMCA could not believe my original order had not even moved in over 5 months!!

Start ringing around all the Dealers you can find for a cancellation or an 'additional' as I did

It's absolute crap that I ordered a week after release and the bloody order has still not even gone to Japan!!

GTS MT being built this Friday 21st

if your dealer doesn't know when it'll be built, i doubt you'll be getting feb delivery

I know it sucks, imagine how I feel about ordering over 5 months ago and still no build date!!

When an order is placed thru your Dealer it auto adds 3 months, but then it just keeps getting pushed back month by month. One thing, WA is different to the rest of OZ for some reason, you guys don't get the tracking I think, but I know how you feel indeed!

Mid October I started ringing around the State to outback Dealers and managed to score the GTS that way - Dealer is half way to Uluru!! I guess when I go to collect I will have to take a camel train, large water bottles and wear a big hat!!

Not quite, the Dealer is about 700km west but I will be picking the car up around 170km from my home

Only 2 ways to go, via Kilcoy & Esk BUT lots of rough edges and rocks/stones, so maybe down the freeway thru the city and head west from there, unless they 'load and road' it to me! All good

Question mate: Do you have your Order number from the Dealer?
