That’s interesting as I think your Q7 was built a few weeks ahead of mine....so some hope mine might move soon too.

I’m still awaiting ship, hopefully be on the next one...

My one was meant to be build last week of March, and just gone in assembly and the lockdown began. It left Bratislava on 3 June, and gone in ship to UK on Thursday morning. And now in UK.

Thanks for the additional info - this is even more positive then because the general consensus seems to be ‘newer’ cars are shipping out ahead of ‘older’ ones. Mine got to Emden on May 18th so with a bit of luck it should move in the next week or so.

Nothing currently docked in Emden at the Audi side of the port heading to Sheerness but Malacca Highway should be back on Tuesday and doing an Audi/Porsche run then all being well.

Then the fun will start with the dealer over the tax increase etc....all the while there are now better deals than what I originally signed up for so should make for an interesting negotiation!

I will be having conversation with them, but to be honest, not sure how well they will respond. I will seek few thousands discount but might get the standard- Up to you: Take it or leave it. No experience in that as my first brand new order. All my previous cars were 6m old.

Update: following the arrival in UK last week, the dealer said will take 2 weeks to get it to me. Apparently Covit 19 is to blame. Everyone has find the perfect excuse.

Despite picking up from the Audi dock my Q7 didn’t make the last Malacca Highway run, it’s headed back now from Sheerness and hopefully back to the Audi dock.

Is your dealer Hatfield Audi by any chance?

Ok so the Audi tracker seems to be about a day behind real-time as it now shows my car as on its way to the UK - which means by now its in Sheerness. Will update when I get a timeframe from Hatfield Audi - 2 weeks I can live with hopefully no worse than that.
