I think you might have to use a bit of guesswork. Whilst it may have been possible to track UK deliveries through the VIN at one time, I was unable to track mine and didn't spot any others Southampton bound in recent months.

However, your dealer should be able to confirm when your car left the factory
and you can then check on the WW site (www.2wglobal.com) to see which ships are leaving Charleston at around the right time.

I looked on your behalf for ships leaving after the 7th. Independence ll left on the 10th and is due in Southampton on the 30th and the Manon left on the 12th and is due on the 29th.

Thank you very much, the dealer stated early November , so it should be on one of those two boats.

Mine is probably on one of the same ships. Built in the last week of September. Does anyone know where the cars for Holland are unloaded? Is that Bremen Germany or Zeebrugge Belgium? I hope our cars have more luck than the BMW's in this ship...
