Trent Nikolic from Drive.com.au reveals that there might be a wait on your new car, due to a backlog of quarantine cleaning. 

It takes 24 hours working around the clock to unload a vessel carrying 3000 new cars, however, the quarantine cleaning itself can only clean a rate of 9 cars per hour.

Trent Nikolic has done the math, revealing that only 350 new cars per week are delivered,  even though we’re buying over 21,000 in that time.

“When we last checked this there were at least 24 car-carrying ships that were either in limbo or waiting to dock,” Trent told Chris O’Keefe.

“If you’re selling a second-hand car you’ll do well, but you have to make sure you’re not waiting two years for a new one.”
