Well if going to 190 on the 23rd September before going back to 165 is a sign, and the lease company saying early November the Volans leader looks promising…. Unlike Genius who still say this week!

Did you happen to enquire on the day it was at 190 and then again at 165?

I've asked for a timeline of code changes and being told they only have the current code visible.

Mine went to 190 then went back to 165 the next day.

BMW are still insisting on delivery to the dealer this week, with code 165

No update for me still 165 and 7th November.

Genius did say today it can take two weeks for the status to change once the vehicle lands

[StewieBelgiun]

Well, yesterday I received a delivery update from the lease company.
New expected delivery date is 17th November, less than a month from now.
This means that the car must be offloaded off the ship (at Zeebrugge), so my car was probably on Altair Leader in that case.

Volans Leader and Grand Duke are arriving in November and then the car will never be at the dealership on time.

It is crazy guys. I can see alot of us, are in the same situation.. My dealer i providing me screenshot daily, that shows nothing has changed. My code is still 165 and was given on 29th of july, and the estimated delivery week to DK is also still in week 42... he told me that he has been with BMW ( jan nyggard) For 2 years and have never experienced that the week was stuck - he Hopes that someone at the port hasnt scanned the car yet.

He also told me that, they have emailed a few of their buyers as they have been told from BMW logistik that their delievery have been moved from 44 to week 50.. those impacted had got the update in their system.. but as mine is still stucked, we are hoping that is just a lack of update needed.

Altair Leader off to Emden Germany now.

Apparently it goes there and then on to Southampton. According to the port schedule, Altair leader should arrive there on the 26th having come from Emden.

This is a very convoluted route!

I already had my dealer talking to BMW Portugal, then I'll call and send an email, we have to start pricing... we have to find the German BMW's emails to price too... our cars are forgotten adrift anywhere...

Altair Leader, Volans Leader and Grand Duke all been pushed back form thier original ETA on week 42 schedule.

Hello,

A really circuitous route for Altair Leader like others have said. I think the calling sequence changed at some point as well because one of the dates on the NYK Lines schedule was highlighted in blue.

A long shot, but Grand Diamond is nearby Dalian, not sure if it'll call yet though, just one to watch.

Many thanks,

Just for kicks I’m going to ask Genius after taking delivery (whenever that may be!), just to see if it’s still at 165

Same situation here for end delivery to Sweden. Just hope it has been loaded on a vessel and that code has not been updated.

- Mine was built 29/7.
- With code 165 since August.
- Expected delivery Week 43.
- Was told by my dealer at beginning of October, that it had been loaded on a vessel but that it remained with the same code (165). Had no data log or so to validate this was the case..
- Asked the dealer for an update around a week ago. Was then told that it seems as if it has not been loaded on a vessel and that new delivery week was set to Week 48... Which is not realistic given that it has not been loaded yet.

I just hope they are wrong

Hello,

Looks like Cepheus Leader could be next to call at Dalian perhaps?

Sounds like a massive cock up by BMW then. Basically we’ll build your car and then deliver it within 6 months or so!!

It's surely going to start costing them orders now.
People simply won't wait 6 months plus for their car just to arrive in the country on top of what they've already waited to have the bloody thing built in the first place.

Hello,

So the Altair Leader has basically spent the past twenty four hours go around in circles in the North Sea just outside Emden.

https://www.vesselfinder.com/vessels/details/9539171

It is really strange to see, in that space of time the vessel could have done a Southampton stop and come back to Emden?

Many thanks,

Many thanks,

Looks like it’s in Dalian at the moment. If BMW do actually have our iX3’s stuck there for the last 2-3 months let’s hope they make it onto the ship (assuming it’s coming this way to Southampton!)
