Now a question: how can I check online where exactly is my car and asses it's arrival date? My dealer promises last week of April pick-up in London. Realistic??
I tried to trace it with my VIN on bmwusa.com but it says "unable to find requested vehicle". Could it be due to the fact that this truck isn't US-destined but built&heading for EU?
Or, perhaps should have used my European address on the site (I logged-in with my CA91607 instead).
So, I'm a bit lost here, thanks for any guidance; BIG THANKS
Not sure how much this helps, but here is a link that describes tracking a BMW manufactured in Germany and going to the US. It may be the same for you going the other direction. I know from experience that once the car gets to port most BMW tracking is useless. You need to find out from your CA if the car has loaded onto a ship and which one. They will have this info.

Good luck and enjoy the car.
