Hi,

My car arrived to Sheerness on 9th June and I cant seem to be getting an exact pick up date. Any experience how long it takes from Sheerness until you actually get the car? The last few days of waiting is nerve racking.
Thanks

Unless there's a problem with certification, you should have had it by now. The usual delay point is Emden. Once is Sheerness, the only wait is for a transporter heading towards your OPC. I should give them a ring.

I've spoken to OPC where they claim it's in PDI and will be with them by the end of the week (and this was last week). I still get the same answer as they say their system is showing in PDI and nothing more. I guess I have waited long enough that the last reamaining few days seem to move really slowly.

Thanks for the reply anyway.

They might keep it for the new reg on 1 Sept. That happened to me but not with quite this much lead time, I think it sat in the OPC for two weeks though, is your Porsche Connect set up, can you see it's location in that yet?

Normally, it goes active once the car clears customs at Sheerness.

What happened with OPC visits /interaction in 2019 is old history now so even if my recollection was sharper it'd probably be academic now anyway. ☹
