I have emailed my contact, getting nervous now everyone speaks about the bouncyness. Also if people are getting nauseous. Then I should test drive before purchasing it. Hope its not too late to drive one.
I am due a test drive this week. I'll take a bucket for our vomit!

I would hazard a guess to say that shipped was when it was loaded onto the train to go to the port at Veracruz and compound in is when it arrived at the port and was offloaded to await the next ship. Your next notification I imagine will either be compound out or in transit. Scheduled ships for the next few weeks (at the moment) are Grande Baltimora (23/4), MSC IMMACOLATA (9/5) and Grande New Jersey (17/5). Best of luck.

That's great thanks, sure I saw someone earlier say they had Compound Out so would guess that's next.
Well with a bit of luck I might make it on to the boat that leaves later this week!

I don't think we have any idea and frequently see statuses bounce back and forth. They are not sequential.

I don't think we even know what "vmacs" is but I could guess something like Vehicle (or possibly Vista) Manufacturing and Control System... typical horrible IT acronym...

The 2CharCode and 3CharCode are interesting but again who knows what they mean. For me just interesting to see (typically lagging) change.

I did a check today using my shipment number and VIN on the Grimaldi RORO tracking. It's updated to confirm the loading in Baltimore onto the Grande Florida, after its journey there on the Gral San Martin.

Thought useful for any other whose vehicle might be taking that route. G Florida not far out now, due into Le Havre on Wednesday I believe (the arrival date below into Antwerp has slipped by a couple of days).

I'm sorry guys, but I have absolutely NO interest in football whatsoever. I'm on this forum for all things MME. Please start another thread if you wish to discuss football matters on here. Thanks.
Point taken Graham, as this is a MME forum. Heads get turned every now and then to other subjects, and we forget where we are.

Just off the phone with my dealer for an update on my car.

My car is currently in Antwerp undergoing the QC checks after being on the Immacolata.

Was initially told to expect the car around mid May. Have now been given a ETA of June 19th. ? Apparently she has 4 coming in on that date.

At least I’ve got the memories of my test drive to keep me going!?

Not impressed with that. Mine was on the IMMACOLATA as well and my eta is 22 May. Saw my dealer Saturday and that was still the date with a status update date of 6 April. Wont be at all impressed if mine goes into June. That will be MORE than the 5 - 10 weeks Ford said that these QC checks would take from arrival in Antwerp.

It may be because my car has to come to sunny Scotland.
I’ve heard it being transported up here on this:

Yeah. She couldn’t really give me any details on the reason for the further delays which I’m not surprised about based on my previous experiences with them.

Wonder what my part-exchange will be worth by then?! ?ā€ā™‚

I went to see my dealer to get mine appraised on Saturday and he said that the figure he gave me will be fixed until my car arrives. If you haven't taken yours into your dealer yet it might be worth a try and see if they will hold the price for you. You've got nothing to loose.

Just contacted my dealer as mine was on the immacolata and had a delivery w/e 22/5/21 - he gave me the following info Vista dated today location had changed from AntQPDI to AntCust which he said meant it had finished the QPDI and was awaiting delivery to customer, So I don't understand why delivery to dealer is now week ending 29/5/21!

Out of curiosity/hope/desperation, anyone here ordered an AWD and wanting to swap the 19ā€ alloys out for my 18ā€ alloys that come on the RWD? You’ll get more mileage and i won’t even take any money off you ?. (Joking aside if anyone interested would be happy to swap plus pay cash on top). Failing that it’s a new set of alloys from the stealers and I’ll be left with a set I won’t use and prob can’t sell ?
