UK Mustang delivery

[mustangguy64]

Thanks champ, means that the Tysla should dock in southampton on the 19th March, 3 days after arriving in Zebrugge, if so that's one hell of a turn around time!

Our Mustangs are unloaded at Zeebrugge then customs cleared and undersealed. They then wait for a different ship to Southampton and I believe there are 2 sailings per week.
It is the same principle as container ships when in port they are not making money so they are only in port a matter of hours.

See I thought this, that basically, the Tysla will go off, do some other things, then will probably come back in a week-3weeks doing a reverse trip to pick cars up that've now been undersealed etc and drop them in southampton.

Just questioned it as IIRC a couple of people were on the same boat name (after docking/underseal etc) as they were from Balti-ZEEBRUGGE

Well congrats to you lucky people, great to see some more arriving. Keeps the hope alive that one day soon mine might actually get built !
Got the Vin a week ago but that's it....

Same as me, got my Vin on the 16th but no window sticker yet

Ooh I must be lucky, I got my VIN number on the 15th and got my window sticker on the 23rd. And have a build date of the 29th...

Tysla leaves Zeebrugge on the 16/3 for Bremerhaven, then Southampton before sailing for Baltimore again. So unless a crack team of underseal ninjas board the ship and do your car in-situ you'll likely be on a different one to Southampton ;)

The ship routes are a bit like a courier service in their workings our Mustangs come from Baltimore to Zeebrugge on a "trunk" route and then from Zeebrugge to Southampton on a "local feeder" route. And just like couriers some unfortunate ones get damaged in transit.

If you check WWL tracking (which works on the "trunk" routes) with a partial VIN (ie 1FA6P) you will see that way back into last year they have delivered few Mustangs to Southampton and those delivered were LHD for US military servicemen.

The Zeebrugge to Southampton feeder route is run by a subsidiary of WWL with no tracking and runs twice weekly.

I was the same (in terms of 2 week turn around).

Stay active guys waiting on window stickers, they'll come!

Just checked on this and their Mustangs were on the Parsifal which was in Zeebrugge from 03:00 to 22:00 on 13th February and they were told their Mustangs were in Southampton on 23rd February. So 10 days to clear customs, underseal and catch another boat to Southampton.

Nice one, seems about what I expected (2 weeks)!

[MENTION=21182]THISELDO[/MENTION] Yeah, I was just a bit wary, doesn't look like the lines of the boot line up, the boot could also be a little ajar so never know, but it's always worth pointing it out to check!!!
Whens the pickup day?


Pick up day is 1st March :cheers::clap2::cheers::cheers::cheers::clap2:
Oooo Mods on day 1 ;)! And here was me thinking a Keyring on day 1 was a big mod :lol:

(Press 'by Voyage' and then type in UF602-TYS)



Looks like the 'UF602-TYS' (Aka the WWL TYSLA) will arrive in southapton 18th March. After arriving at Zebrugge 14th March.

Anyone able to confirm if THE SAME SHIP takes your car to Zebrugge, that does to Southampton?

Just checked on W&Ws tracking page and it says the Tarago status is: 'LINER RELEASE - ZEEBRUGGE' dated 26/2.

I thought it wasn't supposed to be at Z until 6/3 (or is it queued for unloading?)

Mine said that hallway across the Atlantic too. Not sure what it means. When it is unloaded it will say 'discharged from vessel'. Tarago is out of range of the trackers at the moment.

Marine traffic.com has it about a third way across the Atlantic, which would seem about right.

That was 3 days ago if you hover over the ship.

A transatlantic voyage only takes about 5 days (according to my parents who frequently go on cruise ships ).

If the tracking system on 2W says "LINER RELEASE" then it means the cars are coming off the ship and waiting to be loaded onto transporter trucks. Somehow, I think that is jumping the gun a tad, but either way it'll be in Z very soon.

As 'Liner Release' is dated 26/02, I'd suspect it means it's been released from US (to Zeebrugge) rather than actually arrived at Zeebrugge
