My passport in June/July was just under 6 weeks.

it hit 6 months from expiry in Aug so renewed on schedule.
Wife’s was 4 weeks in jan.

as for planes my qantas to SIN was perfect and only 1/3 full.

hop off to be told my next flight on Qatar air was massively overbooked and my seat was gone!

that was a fun couple days.

We already pay an exorbitant amount and lose out on 6 months…besides, living in WA I wasn’t sure we would ever be let out again

Interesting to see yellow was most popular colour among Aussies, but proto wasn't preferred.
Just wondering why people chose the coupes? Was it really just the colour differentiation?
I just wanted another red one.
By the time I realised I should've gone Proto, it was too late :(

Where're ya heading to? Please don't say Bali...
No we are …wait for it ….doing a cruise …Da Da dahhhhhh ?
Only out of Sydney to NZ, never been to NZ and to be honest wasn’t on my bucket list, We had credits from a cruise that got cancelled and had to use it, and as we were not sure of how the climate would look,( especially out of WA) thought it would be smart to stay close to home for our first one.
Already booked Europe for 2023

Bali…I’ve never been and to be honest I really never want to…husband is keen for the surfing, but it just doesn’t look like my jam.

$5k deposit? wowsers...

From what I've seen in screenshots my dealer showed me, their system shows the vessel that your allocated vehicle is coming in on.
Also has VIN/Body number etc.

Actually I just had another look at the screenshot - as well as the vessel ETA (which I originally missed, but it lines up with what I saw in vessel tracking), it has an ETA at the dealership of "week ending 23/9".

Long weekend in QLD the first weekend of October. This could make for a fun road trip if it all goes to plan...

As someone who's spent most of their life in NZ, great choice! It beautiful and you'll find the landscape a surprising contract to Australia.
Im just happy to go anywhere at this point to be honest
Boys are going to do a bungee jump or two, my main aim is to see the Hobbiton set, and the scenery through many of the sounds whilst sipping on a piña colada ?

In theory then, dealers should be able to see which allocations are on this ship.

They should…but looking at the photos my guess is , it’s Protos and dealers coupes
Our coupes probably on the next ship out ?
