Loaded on Vessel 15/11/2007


When I check out that site, it gives me the following options to track:

"You can track commodity by Bill of lading number, Booking number, Customer reference number or by cargo type; Auto, RoRo or Breakbulk"


What do I select to track vessel HOJIN (callsign YJYN8)?

Thanks, Dave

My 335i managed to make it on this ship. People weren't kidding about the wait being hard, especially since it's my first bimmer.

Does anyone know how the cars are delivered to the port? As of this past weekend there's a rail strike in Germany and their complete rail system is at a standstill. This could be trouble for newly built BMWs that haven't left the factory or are currently on a freight train.

I have been at port since 11-15 so I guess I shouldn't be too upset. Here's to hoping we all make the next one.

It's hard to tell from the news reports. One one report, the news company said that BMW's claiming the rail strike isn't affecting it at all and it's "business as usual." However, VW said the same thing according to the same report but in another article, VW allegedly reported it has 10,000 vehicles which will be delayed as a result of any extended rail strike.

My 335i just switched from "on order" to "scheduled for production" today and I'm hoping this strike doesn't delay it. The wait is hard enough

I might be on the otello.. I called onthe 15th and was told my 328xi was shipped out.
I want to call the dealership to confirm but I dont want to jinx it. lol
I cant wait for this to arrive. I found myself a few days ago thinking about going to the dealer and seeing if I could find something "in stock" .

This is my first bmw and i am young and impatient. :sad0147:

when I call the 800 number they say "we can't track it any further than the port delivery, call your CA to see if it got on a boat"

is this true?
