Sank_CH, Believe me I understand the pain!

My car is in front of Bemerhaven since Sunday, waiting, after arriving a day early (I was already hoping) and guess what...... he is still there, waiting!

Has only moved 1-200m for almost 2 days

And then the vessel needs to return to Zeebrugge, should be there on the 12th......

By looking at the vessel routes showed in your picture above, it looks like the captain of the vessel is totally drunk ! he probably now fall asleep and this is why he missed Bremerhaven yesterday.

But the most logical reply should be "the harbour is full, and the vessel can't enter in the port, until one vessel leave. The last days of waiting are always the worst.

: dance:
my dealer called me to ask if I was free this afternoon. I knew that if the car was delivered today he will call me to see the car just before travelling to Italy. Then I will do the pickup on next Monday, as they have to prepare the car...

BUT WHAT I DID NOT KNEW AND DID NOT EXPECT IS THAT THE CAR DID NOT ARRIVED TODAY AT THE DEALER. HE MAKES ME A SURPRISE AND I WILL DO THE PICK UP THIS AFTERNOON :confuse d0068: :happy anim:

So I will travel to Italy in the X4 thanks to MY EXCELLENT DEALER!

Congrats!

I had the pleasure of driving the X4 30d two weeks ago. What a machine! I really loved it. Maybe that will be my next car :-) But first I have to drive my X3 for some years. My dealer told me that my car was produced this week and now is awaiting transport to Europe. It will be a long time waiting for it...

SANK: Congrats! - but beware of the Italians, they might not be as agressive as the hogs which attacked Simon Rostin, but they are fast drivers.

We expect full report latest Monday

OK, on the docks in Zeebrugge

Now I don't know anymore: truck or train, but giving the fact it is only 100km to the dealership, it should not take too long anymore.

ETA was end Sept, early October (week 40) before, will check my Dealer tomorrow if they have more info, but that last stretch can not take weeks anymore.....

I hope for next week?.....

They tend to add a week, just to be sure.....
They told me too Oct 7th, but they after they send me a snapshot of the status in their computer. (the status was ETA week 40), which is the week before. Having the car already in Zeebrugge today, makes me hope that the status in their system is now earlier then week 40....
