Which dealer is that, is PDI being done at Sheerness? Mine landed 28th November, PDI done at Sheerness delivered to Reading on 10th and collected 13th December
Mid Sussex. He says they often get transports turn up unannounced, but he says a lot of things.
Tuesday sounds like the last day it could arrive and be turned around for Christmas then if yours took 3 days. God this is tight - and I've been such a good boy this year, PorscheSanta.

Mine was turned around at the dealer in one working day. I'm not sure exactly when it arrived in Reading, it hadn't arrived early on Saturday morning when my SA called to ask me to log in and pay for the tracker etc. but he knew it had cleared PDI in Sheerness and would arrive sometime over the weekend.

After a 13 month wait, my car has now been sat at Sheerness longer than it took in factory to build, travel 420 miles across Germany to Emden, and traverse one of the busiest shipping channels in the world. Without mentioning what could *possibly* be causing delays at UK ports... I'm desperately hoping to see it for Christmas. Partly to really annoy my sister on Christmas Day, and partly because Mamba Green is just oh so festive!

Anyone else on tenterhooks hoping Santa brings them a Porsche this week?
Thursday or Friday this week hopefully for me. ✌

[My Porsche finally caught up with reality this morning, and moved to Stage 5 "Final steps before delivery". Car was completed at the end of November, and moved from Emden to Sheerness etc pretty quickly. Slight delay getting to dealers with the snow. Arrived there late Tuesday and has been shipped off to Topaz for detailing, PPF and Gtech treatment. Comes back this week for PDI then delivery hopefully]

Oh wow, okay. I’ll stay on our Nigel’s back.

Is it just me or are they all called Nigel? ?

Bit worrying someone seems t have started writing engine on the bonnet. Are you sure they've not sent you a diesel macan?
The 'E' stand for 'diEsEl'.
