I have a build date of 17/02/2017 which means it should have been at the docks by the 27th?
It depends when the train was full and left the plant. I contacted ford via Facebook with my vin and they gave me updates of when it got loaded onto the train then when it made the docks :cheers:

My car is in Transit . What does that mean?
It is finished being built, will sit at the holding yard for a bit waiting for a train and then be taken to the docks

I am picking that this means the car will be delivered to the docks around the 11th April, then it is technically delivered to Ford NZ (FOB - Free On Board)

It won't ever make it to the 'delivered' part of COTUS, it will just stay on 'In Transit' forever. Mine was built on 3rd March, 'Awaiting Shipment' on 6th March and then made it to the docks on 13th March. COTUS still says 'In Transit' with 0 days until delivery.

I'm sorry to say, but that would be extremely quick. It seems like most cars spend 4-6 weeks on the docks before they get on a ship :(

yeah that sounds about right from what I have read and what my dealer & ford NZ have said...."The Production Month will be Mar-2017 and ETA will be Jul-2017 (best guess)"

ships come to NZ before going to AU

I was built 2.2.17 and just got loaded onto a ship overnight.

There are others on this ship that were built even earlier.

So you'd probably want to add a month to that departure date.

That's not going to happen. Can take up to two weeks to get to the docks after being built then a 4-6 week wait for a boat.
