It's not correct, it's about 8 hours away from port at the moment - which is 10 days off that estimate. Unless of course that means it'll be in port until the 30th. I doubt that though.

I had no luck.
The estimated time of arrival in BHV is around 9 pm today.

A 30th November departure from Bremerhaven would get to Southampton on the 1st December which would probably fit with delivery dates folks have been told by dealers of mid December on..
That will be very very frustrating watching it sit there if it turns out to be the case!
On the other hand maybe they will be transferred to a different ship to go to Southampton then they would be earlier than promised dates....

I hope you're right (again!) and that would fit with the online Genius giving me an expected December 7th date for delivery to dealer. (Dealer seems to have no idea other than before end December!)

It would have been quicker if we'd emigrated to the US, ordered one there and then shipped it back to the UK ourselves

So if the 007 schedule is Bremerhaven on 30/11 as shown in picture, why does it have Zeebrugge on 23/11 and Southampton on 24/11?

I wonder whether after docking at Bremerhaven tonight, it goes to Zeebrugge on 23/11, then onto Southampton on 24/11 dropping our cars off and then back to Bremerhaven for the 30/11 and then onto the States for the other dates in December? Why would they put the earlier November dates on the schedule if they aren't going to happen?

I want my car:

Trip 006 = all cars are unloaded.
Trip 007 = other cars come on board.

So what are the dates for Zeebrugge and Southampton for the 23/11 and 24/11 respectively? Am I being dim?

Not sure how/where you found that but seems very likely to me that you're right.
Zeebruge then Southampton is the expected route. That would mean departing Bremerhaven on Monday.
