Thanks @Kiwifruit !
Makes a late November delivery for me look very unlikely... and with a cyclone and port congestion to deal with, mid-December is even looking shaky.
I think the cyclone is likely to make the trip to Fiji more problematic as they will have had to go around it, bringing further delays. If they hadn't diverted to Fiji at all, it should have been smooth sailing down the coast after rounding PNG.
I couldn't help myself... looking at MarineTraffic just now (yes, I paid the $2 for 24 hour satellite) it looks like Morning Cello is about 380nm NW of Fiji, and reporting arrival time in Fiji as morning of 26Oct. So allowing for whatever it has to do in Fiji, then I don't think it will be in Brisbane by 30Oct (a voyage of over 1500nm)... but then again, I am no mariner.
Ah, patience,... give me patience!
I think it might be unloading today. Looks like it's scheduled to move to Fisherman Island No 1 where vehicle carriers unload.
Hopefully. Getting info that it might be going through fumigation. If that’s true then it’s going to throw everything back by another few more days.

I’d say Yes… unless someone cancels or modifies their existing order for an assigned vehicle which does sometimes happen.
If it were me I would be banking on next year, but you may be lucky and I wish you all the luck! and what do I know, it is all a waiting game
I ordered on the 10th Oct (MYLR Blue white interior) and got assigned a car that is on the Morning Cello with delivery expected end of Nov/early Dec.
Ah so close! That's what I would have ordered, but I let wife pick the colour, wheels, interior, etc.
First time poster here, and my MY RWD is in the port of Brisbane on the Glovis. Does anyone know if you can delay the seven day pickup window when the set it? I am recovering from ACL and Meniscus tear surgery and its looking like driving signoff won't happen till after the car is ready.

Even with the common colour of white ext /black int I still had to wait… I can’t work out their logic.
Anyway, mine is on the Morning Cello and today received the invoice and rego papers… delivery date window of Nov/Dec unchanged but looking at where the ship is at, I would say it’ll be mid-Dec for me. Hoping for better.

Given some on the cars aboard the morning cello are showing up in inventory you may be lucky and pick one that’s unassigned and on the way
From previous reports nope, they are very strict about pickup window as they don’t have the capacity to hang onto cars longer than the week, and they know there’s always another buyer in line
Thanks mate and you are 100% correct.
Currently overseas so have been emailing them instead of calling but they are still very helpful (and responsive).
Seeing as we’re not getting the updates, I just really hate the wood look which is what you get with the black seats.
I ordered my red one on same day here in Brisbane. Black interior 21" wheels.
I was hoping to get it soon as well but for what I been reading, only next year.
I tried to get the VIN but wasn't given one yet apparently
Hi Riessy, I would like to know about this too. I am overseas during the first 2 weeks of the EDD shown in the app. Hope they allow to push back a week or 2 if I need to pickup while overseas.
