    The it was 2 weeks in wilderness somewhere in Sydney before I got it.

    Ask your dealer for the VIN. Then if you check the shipping company (link somewhere around on this site), you can find out which ship it's on. From there, you can use the live ship tracker to follow your car.

    Also if you then go into TOPIx, you can find the build sheet for your car to make sure you are getting all you asked for.

    Picked up the new toy this morning!

    Had a nice little drive from the Gold Coast back to Brissie to test it out - very happy.

    I was a bit surprised when the salesman showed me the tow hitch stowed away in the rear side panel - I thought the tow hitch was an extra, and I definitely didn't order one. I was planning on buying one of the Mitchel Bros hitch's, but I guess I don't need one now.

    Also got a couple of LR caps, a bottle of champagne, and some chocolates.

    Will post a pic when I get a chance.

    Cheers
    Sean

    The hitch receiver in the side panel is standard for Australia; the tow hitch, which comes in a black bag, is extra.

    Same here.....it was included without even asking. Was not on my sales order so assumed its standard.

    Mitch hitch is the way to go if you use the car for what it was designed for, and you can sell the factory plow to pay for half.
