I expect her to route Zeebrugge - Amsterdam - Southampton. All the timings seem OK for that.@Mr Miserable - do you know what magic trick would need to be performed for Grand Aurora to arrive in Amsterdam on 30 Nov 2020 at 11:15, do something meaningful like upload / load, then arrive in Southampton from Zeebrugge on 01-Dec-2020 at 20:30 presumably doing something meaningful in Zeebrugge too? Or is it likely to come to the UK straight from Amsterdam? She's not appearing on the arrivals board for Zeebrugge for between the 30th Nov and 1st Dec so my guess is she may come direct, or I did also wonder if it got confused because the ship is already there.
Yeah, thought that would be the case. Southampton doesn't seem to know about the trip to Amsterdam so thinks she is coming straight from Zeebrugge.I expect her to route Zeebrugge - Amsterdam - Southampton. All the timings seem OK for that.
Thanks for the correction. Have a particular ship on my mind at the moment, obvs...You mean GLOVIS CRYSTAL of course, GRAND AURORA is happily discharging it's precious load in Zeebrugge as we wait
When would that ship set sail? To get all the UK orders it would have to wait until the last possible moment in the quarter. You could end up waiting 4 months for a car - and more importantly Tesla would have to wait 4 months for the payments. Also if they have UK cars built and space on a ship, why would they wait until more EU orders came in when you could load the UK cars and be on your way. Just my thoughts.Mr. M
Why do they bundle UK cars in every ship with all the cars offloaded in Belgium? Wouldn’t it be a lot cheaper in charter/fuel/port fees etc. to have a single vessel filled with RHD cars for UK?
Tesla don't have 100's of dealers to handle several thousand cars dumped in a single shipment. The delivery delays would be horrendous. They would have to rent big bits of expensive real estate at the docks to park the cars which would only be used once or twice a quarter. The steady trickle is cheaper and much better use of a smaller resource.Mr. M

GLOVIS CRYSTAL COMPETITION RESULT
BULLSEYE!
Having discarded millions and millions of fraudulent entries and picking an entry that I like the look of it seems we finally have a winner.
The winning square in this competition was P13 and the winner with a direct hit is @RabC63 Congratulations!
This win is all the more worthy because Rab C was the only person to have correctly predicted that the ship would take the longer rhumb line course - great skill!
There is no chocolate fondue set or a canteen of cutlery to be won sadly - it's just a bit of fun!

I take it that it is not a Model 3 you are waiting for?I've just had word from a delivery advisor that my LR is coming on the Triton Ace from Rotterdam, arrival in the UK in about a week!

There are quite a lot of things wrong with what your delivery advisor has said.
