My dealer is not the biggest help, but the official importer for europe.
Does anyone knows how to find out when my car will be delivered?
The only information i get is, wait for manufactures information.
I got
DE066000298

this number from Kroymanns in Germany as disposition number.

Any ideas?

Patrick

hi neighbor :welcome:

wann hastn denn bestellt?

oh sorry :hide: when did you ordered it? i think we should write in english, that our american friends can understand us :p - but i belive they have no answer for you, cause Kroymans has nothing to do with the dealership system inside the US

With the tracking # all they can do is tell you when it was last scaned in and shipped. Mine was last scaned on 4/18/05 and was suppost to be delieved on 4/29/05 but was not delievered untill 5/14/05. They do not scan the vehicle when they are actually in transit. Sorry

so, at all no way to find out if the car is already produced yet or not.

bad luck - the dealer is not able to give me a delivery time.
thanks for your comments

Hi Patrick,

my dealer here in Wuerzburg told me he got his first STS V8 coming in within the next two weeks (it can be in every day).

It`s a moonstone/cashmere with acc/hud and cooled seats.

simple, just do what i did. i live in switzerland and i called up the cadillaceurope headquarters in the netherlands, that is where all the cars are shipped to first...thats actually where they reach the european continent and are distributed. tell them ur dealer is not helping u out and u want the exact info, tell them ur location, the dealers name and address and the model with the exact options and colors...hopefully they will tell u, they do for me...hope this helped.http://cadillacforums.com/forums/images/smilies/drinker.gif

Hi da thrilla, I don`t understand patrick because my dealer got his first, the moonstone/casmere in last friday. It is fully equipped only no moonroof.
I could buy this car tomorow if I want to.
My dealer here showed me the list of the cars which already in Rotterdam and you can pick on of them right away. Takes about 2 weeks till they arrive at the dealer.
So I realy don`t understand:hmm:

Thanks, and have a nice sunday
Harry

Wow, why is kroymans in Düsseldorf so slow?
They also got two out of the first delievery - but told me, they are already sold.
At Kroymans in Netherlands they tell me - Düsseldorf will help and knows everything.
(For Harry - It is Bäsler himself who said he will help me)

So, next time i buy direct in NL or in Wuerzburg.

Hi Patrick, in NL it`s too expensive:rolleyes: As far as I know they have in Duesseldorf two STS V 6 in launch edition, one is black/ebony the other one black/cashmere.
It´s interesting for me to see when you get your car:helpless:

Have a nice week, weather forecast says summer is coming back.

Harry:coolgleam

i keep you informed - when i have it - i post pix and a first test drive review from the A3 Düsseldorf - Mainz
patrick

Now i got the call - the car will be at the dealer next week. (I hope to get the STS before the DTM Race in Oschersleben)

Hi Pat,

Harry

Drive fast but savely;)

Hi Loadtoad, from my experience with GM cars here in Germany I just can say the best. I drive GM cars since 1971, my first car was a Camaro 350 - 4 Speed, than I had Pontiacs, Oldsmobiles, Buicks and Cadillacs. These cars I bought all new and had beside routine maintanance allmost no problem with.
The service, here in germany is very good and if they don`t have some parts in stock there, they`ll get it like overnight from a Central-Department in Sweden.

I´ve only used it once when the engine light on my DTS went on and what would needed was 2 cam-shaft sensors. ( they came from Sweden)

I love the CTS V but it`s still not available here in germany, thats why I got me a XLR.

So, take it with you to Italy, you`ll get many looks at your CTS V.

If you want to sell it there, you must have the europe specification, that means lights have to be changed, speedo in kph, plus the seller, or the buyer have to pay import-tax.

If you in the Armee you wouln`t have these problems, sell it to one who is in the Armee.

I hope I could help a little

Hi, Harry!
Have you did any changes on your DTS according to the European (or German) rules?

Hi Rauf,
I had my dealer, in Naples/Fl where I bought it right out of the showroom to change the tail lights and the instrumental-cluster.
The taillights here in europe must have the seperate brake and turn-signal light.
The turn-signal light must be yellow.
The cluster I`ve had put in was from the STS and must have the kph showing.

Both things came from Canada, took two days longer till picked it up.

Here in germany I had to put on the back bright red fog light - that was it!!!!
