She's FINALLY here! Arrived this morning. My ETA was 12/5, so you can expect yours 4 or 5 days earlier than your ETA. ��

Yes, your dealer should have it by then.

OK, this is strange. My vehicle status states the car cleared Customs in NJ today (it was in Baltimore not NJ) and then states "liner release" in Brunswick today but it just left Charleston and will not reach Brunswick until tomorrow. I hope this does not indicate a problem

It may have cleared customs in the first U.S. point-of-entry. The liner release may simply indicate which port it is to be delivered.

When PD2911 & Lovemonet and LynxFX get their F-Types, I'm not only going to congratulate them but raise a glass (or three).

Stay Calm and Drink Dom Perignon. Good luck to all of you!!!

What's even stranger is that mine does not show that. My tracking info is odd though. It just says loaded on November 16th but it does not have any updates since then. It doesn't even say what vessel it was loaded on, just that it was loaded on the 16th.

Make that four glasses.

Good luck to all four of you!

Are you using the W&W website? At the top, above the vehicle status section, is Voyage Status section that contains the ship name - the Honor.

I was looking at wrong screen. Mine is complex because it was booked on 2 vessels. It has cleared customs and received liner release in Brunswick.

BTW the Honor is due at Brunswick at 9am tomorrow. There is a possibility you will get your car this week since it already has customs clearance. It wouldn't surprise me if we see it by Friday.

The next status we are looking for is "Discharged" at Brunswick. Then it boils down to speed of trucking. Theoretically we could see the car as soon as Thursday if it is discharged within a day (likely) and the trucking is available for next day pickup (pot luck).

I think the crew of the Honor is enjoying the nice weather cruising from Charleston to Brunswick. They are cruising at 10 knots and were due in port at 9 am - 2 hours ago and the tracking app still does not show them within range.

Haha, 8 days away now. Despite never being able to track the shipment, mine did arrive right when they said it would. Getting a clear bra installed now before I pick it up.

BTW, does anyone know what the LP Frame Package is? It came as part of the wheel locks option, which I didn't order but the dealer will split with me.

The Honor still has not docked in Brunswick and has been "out of range" for 14 hours. It left Charleston at 6:30 pm last night and was due to arrive in Brunswick at 9:00 am this morning. Not sure how it can be 6 hours late already and the weather has been perfect.

I assume LP == License Plate. Mine came with the front frame not installed, and the dealer elected not to install it. And I elected not to either.


BTW, when I ordered my car, I spec'd no dealer logos or other stuff glued onto the car, and they complied.

That's what I was thinking too, but odd that it is listed as part of the wheel lock kit. I have already requested not to have the front plate bracket installed. No way do I want that front spoiled.

Correct...license plate.

My dealer was instructed not to install the front plate either...

If you Google 'jaguar lp frame package' it seems that is always combined with the wheel locks.
