Welcome back!! The charging infrastructure in Dubai has developed beyond recognition since you received your first M3. It must be easy now. How many speeding tickets? What's your EDD?

If it was on RCC COMPASS then I would expect you to have a VIN allocated however all is not lost because some folk won't be able to take delivery and so you may stand a chance of picking up a reallocation. Otherwise, I think you will be waiting for MORNING POST.

We've had to wait a while for the RCC COMPASS VINs to drop - she departed on 31 Mar and so if the pattern repeats we could be looking at around 14 May.

OK I just wanted to check your car was coming from China as we will shortly be supplied from Berlin. The fact that it wasn't on a Hoegh ship is not a surprise but worth definitely excluding, simply because we can. Fingers crossed for RCC COMPASS....

What are the 1st 3 letters of your VIN please?

I'm not confident that your car is onboard TANNHAUSER and think it more likely to be onboard RCC COMPASS. At the moment, we don't know whether RCC COMPASS will head to Zeebrugge after Southampton but I reckon it's likely. To rule out other possibilities, if you have your VIN, enter it here and...

TANNHAUSER is currently unloading in Barcelona. Although she will depart to Zeebrugge I don't think she will have any Teslas left onboard. RCC COMPASS ETA Southampton 09 May. I'm 100% sure she is transporting Teslas to UK. RCC AMERICA ETA Koper 20 May. Almost certainly a Tesla shipment. ASIAN...

I haven't been tracking ships to Perth for sometime. If I recall correctly the ships to Fremantle used to come via Singapore but as you say it looks like this may have changed. At least they are not coming by train across the Nullarbor! (@Sturty will know the reason I mention this)

Sadly an EDD does not mean you have been assigned a specific vehicle. The EDD, which is produced by an algorithm, can vary wildly until such time as you have been assigned a VIN. The VIN will be hidden until such time as Tesla declare it. VINs can be and are allocated to those with pending...

It hasn't happened yet but it is on the cards for UK and Ireland Model Y to be supplied from Berlin. The driver for this is the fact that Berlin will be producing RHD for the Indian market. Model 3s will continue to be supplied from Shanghai. The final MY shipment from Shanghai should arrive...

Summary: GLOVIS COURAGE Currently in Southampton. Departs at midday for Zeebrugge - arriving early hours Tue 16 Apr. HOEGH TARGET This ship is on a scheduled service (ie not a charter) however Tesla have used this service in the past to move cars to Europe (not UK). If you are in the EU and...

That is quite possible. The ship loaded in Shanghai South and is routing direct to Melbourne.

Yours is the first indication on here that GLOVIS COURAGE may actually have some Teslas onboard! Her current position is roughly halfway between Madeira and Lisbon. She is due to dock in Southampton at 00:30 on 14 Apr.

That fits for GLOVIS COURAGE

Mmmmm. Sounds very much like Giga Berlin may be starting RHD production sooner rather than later.

You are entering your VIN on the Hoegh website to see if your car is on a Hoegh vessel. It's not, which isn't a surprise since the Hoegh ships are only used to supply the EU market.

That is true - Berlin will be manufacturing for the Indian market and so it's logical to assume that they should be able to export to the UK too. We shall see.....

PAGANELLA has just departed to Yokohama but she then heads off to BNE 21/4, PK 254/ and MEL 29/4. Yokohama is a port Tesla use and so she could have some Teslas onboard. There are other ships but nothing really stands out until MORNING CRYSTAL does another run from Shanghai on 10 May arr BNE...

RCC AMERICA has departed Shanghai South for Koper, Slovenia with an ETA of 20 May. This is almost certainly a Tesla shipment!

TANNHAUSER would be my guess. She should continue on to Zeebrugge after Barcelona. I would still enter your VIN HERE to make sure it's not on the HOEGH TARGET though. Let me know if it is!

Correct - I deleted it because I don't believe she is carrying any Teslas.

Summary: GLOVIS COURAGE ETA Southampton 13 Apr At the moment there is still no evidence that this ship is carrying any Teslas. HOEGH TARGET This ship is on a scheduled service (ie not a charter) however Tesla have used this service in the past to move cars to Europe (not UK). If you have been...

The clear and visible VIN shower in the UK for cars being shipped on RCC COMPASS just adds weight to my suspicion that there are no Teslas onboard GLOVIS COURAGE. I am therefore going to remove her from the tracking map.

I'm not sold on GLOVIS COURAGE or HOEGH TARGET having any Teslas onboard. NEPTUNE BARCELONA may have some Teslas onboard but I think the majority of the cargo will be of S Korean origin. It's become harder to put a figure on Tesla shipments since other manufacturers have considerably increased...

I don't think there is any doubt that RCC COMPASS will be carrying Teslas to the UK ETA Southampton 9 May. Let's hope for a WuWa video to appear to see what has been loaded. I will add her to the map so you can follow her journey 24/7. It may take a day or two to appear. MORNING CRYSTAL is...

Possibly. We don't know her itinerary at the moment.

Summary: GLOVIS COURAGE ETA Southampton 13 Apr. TANNHAUSER ETA Barcelona 21 Apr IMHO she is very likely to be carrying Teslas. Follow the ships on the map HERE

ANIARA departs Shanghai on 4 Apr and arrives in Southampton on 11 May however at the moment she is docking only in Southampton's Eastern Docks and so will not be carrying any Teslas. I mention it only because someone may 'discover' it and unnecessarily get their hopes up. Nevertheless I shall...

Nothing noted coming out of Baltimore that fits the bill. As soon as you get your VIN, let me know.

There will be nothing onboard HOEGH TARGET for the UK. Ireland maybe.

A recent WuWa video didn't show any RHDs on the dock at Shanghai South. Whilst departures to Oz generally depart from the main Haitong terminal, RHD production for Japan, Thailand, Oz and UK is normally coincident. Looking in to the future, MORNING CRYSTAL looks promising- she departs...

Another ship of interest is HOEGH TARGET. She is due to arrive in Le Havre on 21 Apr and Zeebrugge on 23 Apr. At the moment there isn't any strong evidence to say she is carrying any Teslas however Tesla have used this scheduled service before. The good news is that if you have received your...

NOW! is the answer. It's quick, painless and achieves the aim.

The situation as I see it. GLOVIS SUPERIOR docks in Southampton today. She will unload fully ie no cars for Zeebrugge. MORNING LADY ETA Zeebrugge 18 Mar Partial load only - unload scheduled for 20 Mar. GLOVIS COURAGE ETA Southampton 13 Apr TANNHAUSER ETA Barcelona 21 Apr

GLOVIS SUPERIOR approaching Southampton.

The Zeebrugge port schedule has yet to be updated however MORNING CAROL is due to depart Southampton at 06:00 on 06 Mar. She could dock in the afternoon of 06 Mar however it depends on space.

I agree. Stick with it.

WuWa is back! (YouTube) I didn't spot any RHD vehicles in the video.

Summary: MORNING CAROL to Southampton & Zeebrugge. The ship is going to be late. She is currently sheltering off Trafalgar from some heavy seas hitting the Portugese coast over the next 36 hrs. I expect she may stay there until Sunday. ETA for Southampton is now 5 Mar. MORNING COMPOSER to...

CITY OF ROTTERDAM has just departed Drammen but it's a little too misty to make out what's been left on the quayside. Clearly you succeeded in getting Tesla pinging the car's last location - the car would still show it was in Zeebrugge if it was loaded on this ship. If it was pinged now, it may...

Don't get too depressed - the EDDs are calculated by some random algorithm that vary can wildly . Sit tight - another EDD will probably pop up soon.

There are a couple of possibles leaving in the next couple of weeks- TURANDOT (unlikely candidate IMO) and DON JUAN Dep 10 Mar Arr Brisbane 28 Mar, PK 28 Mar and Mel 31 Mar.

There is another ship on the way from Baltimore - TOLEDO ETA Zeebrugge 07 Mar. Does this fit better with what Tesla are telling you?

Summary: MORNING CAROL to Southampton 03 Mar, Zeebrugge 5 Mar MORNING COMPOSER to Barcelona 09 Mar GOLD ESTRELLA to Zeebrugge 13 Mar (part load) GLOVIS SUPERIOR to Southampton 16 Mar MORNING LADY is a suspect at the moment - she will arrive in Zeebrugge on 18 Mar. Probably only a partial Tesla...

I agree GLOVIS SUPERIOR is likely to be the one.

Not quite sure what is going on here - Teslas entering Drammen port by road. I've never seen that before.
