It clearly makes no environmental sense for Tesla to ship cars halfway around the world from China to the UK. The home market for China is LHD and if Giga Shanghai can easily switch from LHD to RHD it shouldn't be difficult for Giga Berlin to make the switch.

Horizon Leader has an ETA at Shanghai South of May 25 00:00. Can’t remember whether this has always been there but it may be an indication of her docking soon. She has been going round and round in circles for days! Mr M will no doubt update us at 9pm.
@Mr Miserable
Given the VINs allocated today with EDDs starting 14th June, could it mean there are UK cars on Glovis Splendor and it will make a stop after Koper on its way to Bremerhaven (Due there on 12th June 2022). That would link with the, from 14th June EDDs that current VIN holders have.
Moderator note: I'm getting several people/posts, usually with little or no history on here, posting a supposed Tesla link that is tripping out this sites automated warning systems. I'm not approving any posts with this strange "this is a better way to check on Teslas website" link until I have more info from a trusted source (no disrespect meant to the posters who have submitted the link). While I understand the desire to know, there's already a way to check if a VIN is allocated. Either way, posting the link on the shipping thread is ignoring a lot of requests to keep this thread focused. Sorry if this post is a little cryptic.
What was your EDD before allocation and when did you order? Congrats on your VIN!!
I've ordered mine on 03.03.2022 but ask for delivery no early than June. Until last week I had EDD 'July' then it change to June 23 - 29. Few days after that the EDD went back to 'July' and today is May 29 - June 12

Can’t wait for @Mr Miserable’s 9 pm update. With all those VIN allocations today would certainly want to know if it’s one ship for June and one for July deliveries. Is it TheBen with some UK load, is RCC Europe a confirmed Tesla ship… to many unknowns.
I've just received VIN
MY LR Red 19"default rims + White interior + EAP - Romania
Order August 2021
EDD May 29 - June 12
I did not have any EDD in the last few months and until yesterday I could still change my order; I was mentally preparing for the next batch (September).
I think is on the Glovis Splendor and will come via Koper Slovenia, but not until after the 15 of June.

Something happening? Tuesday 24 May Update
@Frizzy has done wonders with the tracking chart however for the moment it's manually updated. It's work in progress and I'm sure we will see it improve over the days /weeks ahead. It has had an enormous number of views over the last 24 hrs. Big hand for @frizzy
GLOVIS SPLENDOR is now established in the calm seas of the Gulf of Aden and is tanking it at nearly 18 kts. She is due to arrive in Koper on 01 Jun. Every ship that has done the Shanghai - Koper run previously has terminated its charter at Koper. It would therefore be very unusual for her to carry on to Southampton after Koper. I can understand why some might suggest she will head to Southampton (It seems very early in the quarter for a regular Koper run) but it just doesn't make sense to me unless she is just offloading cars to Romania that must be delivered by the end of June for commercial reasons. It's about an 8 day voyage to Southampton and so a possible ETA of 10 Jun.
THEBEN is now in a choppy Bay of Bengal and her speed has dropped accordingly to just over 14kts. It's not a problem as she has plenty of opportunity to catch up if she has to slow. She is heading direct to Zeebrugge with an ETA of 14 Jun. She was originally going to call at Southampton on the way but this was cancelled. Any RHD cars on her will be heading to Ireland.
RCC EUROPE will arrive off Singapore tomorrow night I'm assuming for a refuel. She remains my favourite to be heading to Southampton (around 17 Jun) probably followed by Zeebrugge around 19 Jun.
HORIZON LEADER is now heading in to load at Shanghai South. If she departs on 27th she could make it to Southampton by 24 Jun at normal cruising speeds, a couple of days earlier if she engages ludicrous mode (and doubles her fuel consumption!).
MORNING PEACE You will hopefully have seen my post from earlier that shows that MORNING PEACE has turned around and is now heading for Mokpo S Korea at 9kts. It looks very much like a technical problem. As you are aware I don't think she was carrying Teslas in any case but if she were, they would now be July deliveries. For the moment though, forget her.
Depending on how production goes we may still see another departure to Koper after HORIZON LEADER departs.

Would it be unusual for VINs to be assigned from a boat as early in its voyage as RCC EUROPE?
