I'm still looking for my Countryman. It hasn't shown up on any ship so far and the status still has it at the port. Seems like it just fell off the face of the earth. It's hard to wait!

Did you try putting your VIN in the WW tracking site to see if it shows up yet? Mine just showed up today after almost three weeks of nothing.

I check almost every day on the WW site. cars above and below my VIN have shipped out. Oh well ... the longer the wait the bigger the down payment.

Same here, our number still hasn't shown up on the WW site and the ship is already in Halifax.

Still playing phone tag with the dealer and haven't gotten my trade issue resolved. I am beginning to think they don't want to sell me the car.

Sold our MCS today so all ready for our new CM. Wife got pretty emotional letting her baby go. Now just have to deal with 3 weeks having only one car.

I haven't checked with the MA. I think I will wait until Tuesday and see what happens. If I don't know anything by then, I will check in with the MA.

The Oberon is waiting to dock in Baltimore. Hopefully they will post their cargo and I will know if its there or still on the docks in Germany.

Yeah, all of the boats, including the Oberon and Patriot, seem stuck just south of the Bay Bridge. Not sure what the hold-up is. They've all been sitting there for 24 hours.

I checked in with my MA. His records indicate that my car is still at the port in Bremerhaven. Two more ships due out this week on the 24th (Courage and Faust) and one on the 28th (Morning Celine).

Do all the Countrymans leave from BREMERHAVEN that are coming to Halifax, NS or could it be possibly leaving from another port? Ours was ready for transport last Tuesday according to our MA, so I am trying to figure out what ship it is on and when we might get it.

They all leave from "Bimmer Heaven." Go to the Wallenius Wilhelmsen site and run your VIN through the Cargo ID field. Or, your MA should know what ship it's on.

My car is at the VDC and my VIN still isnt on the WW site, so go figure.

Good news is that we reached an agreement on the trade so we are go for the car.

My car finally got on a ship. It's on the Courage due in to Baltimore on March 9. It sat at the port for 4 weeks before it hitched a ride.

It's hard to understand how a car could sit for 4 weeks waiting for a ship. I know that the cars that are sold get priority. Could it be that yours wasn't marked as sold? On my Vehicle Inquiry Report, the "priority" field is marked "1-Customer Sold." What does yours say?

Mine had the same priority and sat at the port for almost 2.5 weeks.

My VIR states Priority 1 - Customer Sold. Obviously it is not first in, first out. At least I know where it is now.

I found her. She is on the Faust set for arrival in Halifax on March 7. It is a little later than we were expecting, but at least I can now track her voyage.

Sweet! Be sure to post your first impressions. There are those of us that are still living vicariously through the few that already have their cars.
