No, I haven't got the VIN yet, the chap on the phone said I should get it soon, but he could see I had a car allocated and its location. I actually ordered on the 20th, but he said they have a stock of cars and when asked for it is allocated.

OK
The next stage is to monitor your account daily and see whether a hidden VIN has been allocated.
There are numerous threads on this forum on how to do that.
If your car is sitting on the east coast it will be at either Newark or Philadelphia - I will be monitoring both.

Although the AQUARIUS ACE has arrived in Drammen from Zeebrugge , I think it reasonable to suggest that Model 3s have been moved to Norway by train/road this quarter.
Certainly looking at the Drammen Webcam we can see a healthy supply of Model 3s has built up on the dock without any ships being in port.

I saw the AQUARIUS ACE on another webcam. It didn't have Teslas on board.

If you play with the image urls you'll find some additional images. Not many interesting ones, but pos19 give you a closer look at the cars close to the fence. Looks like they are registred and ready to be delivered to customers.

Also the number of registrations started to rise a week ago. From practically zero to 28 the first day. Today 49 new teslas. Tesla Registration Stats (Registreringer av nye elbiler i Norge might also be interesting now as the id.3 gets released next week)

Although GLOVIS SUNLIGHT has yet to dock at Pier 80 I am told that it won't be staying long and may depart as early as Sunday morning.
This short stay is usually indicative of a departure to China.

Morning, I called Tesla this morning, so now have a VIN number, is there a way I can track it now?
No, sadly not.
It would be useful to post the 1st 3 digits of the last 6, so that we can get an idea of the batch that it is in though.
Did you ask the ship's name? Any indication whether your car was on loaded a ship today?

Hi, the first 3 of the last 6 are 775. I did ask about the ship, but he said I should find out next week and should get it by the end of Sept. The chap yesterday said it was last week of sept/first week of Oct.
