Port to Dealer transit UK owners - how long?

Any UK residents who ordered new:

How long did your vehicles take from arrival at port to then get to the main dealer? I was told mine was at port in the UK on Tuesday - it's now Thursday and I'm growing impatient!

Mines going into Trainer BMW Swansea, and it arrived at port on Tuesday. I really need the car by next Thursday at the latest see due to a planned Friday weekend break with Mrs Dan5047! A week sounds like the average then by the sounds of things. Fingers crossed for next Monday or Tuesday then. Is there no way of tracking the car at all? Can the dealer chase up where it is by checking with the port or anything??

Shouldn't take more than a week but don't they all go from Southampton to Thorne for prep? Picked ours up last Tuesday and it had been in the country for a couple of weeks but waited for new reg. Well after 8 months, what's another couple of weeks? Hope you get it for next week.
