Flushing as in Cornwall, not exactly the most central place or the most pivotal location in the car industry !

Sadly the Netherlands.

Well the cars will certainly be well travelled by the time they get to us!

 

[SteveUk]

Fully autonomous cars will arrive before this shoddy shipping!

Or perhaps the next model year!

Just in case anyone wondered where Flushing is - it's not far from Antwerp....

This is Hanna's answer to my other query as to when it will be transported here:-

"
I can’t tell you for sure when it is arriving in England I am afraid.

Any idea how the cars will get from Antwerp to Flushing - boat, train, car carrier?!

There are train tracks in the port right where our cars are and most cars that are made in Germany that are for the UK usually arrive in Flushing by train so I would think that train would be the best option. Just depends on how many they want to get out of Antwerp at a time. Haven't yet found any suitable ships going from Antwerp to Flushing, although the official name of the port is Vlissingen. Still looking though

There are regular RoRo sailings from Vlissingen to Dagenham, 2/3 per day, so there is no shortage of ships to take our cars to Dagenham. The trip takes about 11 hours. 3 ships (that I can see) did the run today. Adeline, Wilhelmine and Celestine. Looks as if that is all they do. Not sure what the cargo make up is, I suspect they take cars, lorries and probably unaccompanied trailers so space might be limited. But with so many sailings per day I would expect it to take too long. It all depends on how much longer Ford want us to be without our cars. Obviously, the sooner we get them the sooner Ford get paid for them.
