Speeding up the 718 (delivery process)
Discussion
I've now got my build completion date on 9th September - yippee!
A copy of the screen from the Porsche system shows it exits the factory compound at Kornwesthein on the 9th, enters the port at Emden on the 9th and then takes 14 days to leave Emden on the 23rd. Do boats only sail every fortnight?
It then takes 7 days to reach Sheerness on the 30th and I'm thinking I could do that quicker on a pedalo.
Has anyone gone to Stuttgart to collect their Boxster or should I just calm down and wait for it to arrive at Hatfield?

Spoke with Hatfield yesterday and I've left it too late to arrange a collection. The salesman confirmed they share a boat with VAG and if there are more VW's and Audi's the Porsche's get bumped off! They all go to Reading for their PDIs then go to the OPC for a clean and handover.
Hatfield's sales quarter ends September so they'll be doing what they can to ensure I get delivery by then.
Also advised that if I did a collection and it slipped into October I'd have to fit winter tyres because they're a legal requirement in Germany after that date.
