Is yours off the ship or sourced from another dealer?

Mine is supposedly being delivered on the 17th and is meant to be off the ship, but I have trouble trusting car dealers.

Fresh off the boat mate.

It's said to have docked over the last few days and has only just hit the lot. So I've arranged to pick it up on Saturday. Being my next day off.
Supposedly takes up to a week from when the ship docks to when it's ready to be delivered. Depending on what things need to be done to the car before hand. Dealer fit accessories, tint etc....

Cool, thanks. Hopefully mine's here by the w/e.

Definitely. There seems to be a distinct lack lack of stock LW photo's here so I'll be sure to remedy that :P

I'll put more up over the weekend too, just sent mine back to the dealership to get the bumper repainted (FOC) cos it had a scratched on it when they delivered it to me initially. Hope they'd done a good job.

I was a bit worried today when I arrived back at my car only to find all of my windows down! They were not down when I locked it. I thought that I may have had a fault however I phoned the dealer who informed me that if you have the windows down and hold the lock button that all the windows will go up, turns out that if you hold the unlock button the windows will go down.

Good gimmick however I didn't need the heart failure in a bad area of Adelaide to think that my windows had been down for a while.

Local lads obviously have no taste in small cars.

Haha it's a good feature for when it's a hot day and you're walking to you car that's been sitting in the carpark for a while

.. that would explain why my window was wound down earlier today when I held the button down.

the local lads would steal a commonhore as you can start them with a toothpick

The ship (M.V. Parsifal) with the next load of Focus cars is due to dock in Melbourne on 3rd December. My Sport Hatch diesel (Mustard Olive) is on it. Can't wait!
