I won a car at auction a couple of weeks ago. In that last week they have been sorting out all the documents for me, insurance etc. I got a copy of the export certificate through yesterday and it says at the bottom "Export schedule date 31/7/2013.
Is this a normal time to wait for a car to be exported? I know car manufactures have priority with new cars so you have to wait for the first available boat. Its coming to Southampton which I though would be quite a busy port with a lot of boats coming from Japan. Maybe I'm wrong.
So if anyone has experience with this part of the import process I wouldn't mind hearing how long you waited. I don't mind waiting until August to get the car but was sort of looking forward to getting it in the next month or so.
Cheers
