Just spoke to the online genius and my status has now switched to 195 (Shipped from Port of Exit), this was updated on the 3rd July!

Kaynat: Congratulations on purchasing your new BMW! It's definitely a great choice!
Kaynat: The current order status is 195 - exit from port or compound. This was updated on the 3rd of July 2023. This means that your new BMW M2 is currently At Sea on its way to Southampton Port of Arrival.
Kaynat: The estimated delivery week is 32, which commences on the 7th of August 2023. This may be subject to change.

Same here - just updated to 195 on 03/07.

Unless there is a lag in the system that corresponds with Drive GreenHighway leaving Altamira as scheduled on 03/07 rather than Veracruz (30/06).

The DGH is scheduled to arrive at Southampton on 19/07.

Hmm, I think the actual carrier is this one - https://vop.2wglobal.com/schvop/ctrl...voyageId=61725

What delivery week were you quoted by your dealer?

Same delivery week - 7/8

The ship on the WW schedule doesn't get to Southampton until 10/8.

Yep, so that's correct, your delivery week is not an exact date for delivery e.g. will be delivered 7th August. The car can arrive at anypoint w/c 7th August, which aligns to that ship schedule.

There is no way you are getting a w/c 7/8 delivery if you car is on that ship.

Do you have a link to this info? I can't find anything about this ship leaving from Altamira.

I don't see why not? Yet, your expectation is that a ship leaving Mexico on the 3rd July will arrive in Southampton on the 19th... 16 days??

It's just common sense that if a ship arrives at Soton on 10/8 you are not going to get delivery at your dealer by 13/08. Read this forum and other forums to get an idea of cars waiting at Soton and even best case scenarios for how long it will take to get to your dealer.

The K line schedule is there for public consumption and has nothing to do with my expectations. The use of K Line has been confirmed by guys tracking their G42 M240i that have been in production for some time and info from BMW. No doubt BMW also use WW.

Anyone know of a dealer in the south east that has a Toronto red car available for viewing? Arden in Maidstone has a Brooklyn grey manual, my car should begin build at the end of this month. Would love to see a TR in the flesh before then if I can. I doubt I will change colours last minute, but don’t mind making a trip to see one if I can

Yep my car hasn’t left Mexico 🇲🇽 yet they continue to tell me car is being delivered
w/c 7th August —— literally tell you complete BULLSHIt 😡

It's all a waiting game at the end of the day, at least our cars are on the move though!

What area of the country does your car need to be delivered to?

Group 1 (Barons as was) in Farnborough did have one, not sure if they still do though so check first.

Snap, and he’s also emailed saying “We have been given a delivery date of no later than the 14/07/23.” We shall see…

I wonder where 14th comes from as my dealer couldn't quote any delivery date.

The dealer is in Suffolk. I still haven't seen one in the flesh or had a test drive so not sure I'll end up going through with it. The dealer is cool with that as they're happy to have cars coming.

Good luck - hope it turns up as promised whichever ship it's on :-)

They were advertising this on auto trader, theres no car available, just trying to drum up orders.

Ah shame. It was definitely there at one point, I saw it myself to check out the colour.

I don’t see how he could say that either, but he did! I’ve decided to stop fretting about it and get it when it comes.

Are you getting yours ppf’d?

Yep funnily enough (?!) it was booked in for today so that's been cancelled.

Had a call this morning. My car will get the technical campaign/recall fixed today and be released tomorrow apparently.

What is the fix ? Just wondering if we should be concerned about this or not as a minor issue ?
At least you are receiving some info - I’m getting nothing and my car’s location can’t even be confirmed ?
