Where did you order from?
I put my order in the last friday of september and I haven't heard anything from them yet, production number, production week, nothing.

Is there a week 42 group? The way things are going I might have to start a week 44!

Week 43!

Woo hoo too!

I stopped procrastinating and put my order in on Monday - found out today that it is in production, officially week 43!

I have no fun pix for my email - now that I'm in the "waiting" group, I'll have to start adding stuff to my signature!

I ordered my mini from Keeler Mini in NY.
My MA says I am scheduled for next week. (week 43)
I called Ask Mini today, and they say I am scheduled for week 45.
I'm pulling for my MA...

Have you called your MA to ask the status of your order?
I had to ask...no body volunteered the info.

I checked about a week after I ordered and nothing- my MA said he'd get in contact with me once he got it.

The thing is- I haven't even been charged that $1,000 deposit on my credit card. I've been waiting for the charge and nothing.

I'd call again and express your concerns.
You should at least have a production number by now.
I suppose the problem could be that your dealer doesn't have any available slots, but still I'd call to find out what is going on.

Heard Friday that my week 44 build got moved up to week 43. Checked online today and sure enough I now have a VIN number.

My MA is supposed to update me on a build date but I am not holding my breath. Seems like I have to take the first step in everything on this deal.

The wait begins...

Me me me! I just found out I'm a week 43 as well!
Called 866-ASK-MINI this morning and was told that the production started on 20th and will be completed around 27th.
Now I gotta start applying for auto loan and selling my car.

Welcome to week 43 casey morgan!
I think I'm in the same boat as you- cept I haven't called my MA since last week. They said that they put the order in and all but I didn't get a production week from them yet.

Track mini says on order and ask mini says scheduled for production at no particular time as well.

I hope it's scheduled for week 43 seeing how I placed the original order nearly a month ago now...

I'm a 43'er, and my car's at the port!

1-866-Ask-Mini seems to have better, more detailed info than the web site. I'd suggest speaking to a human; they're incredibly friendly and enthusiastic. They're on call from 9:00 to 9:00 Eastern time. I'm a week 43'er (Clubman non-s, BRG). I called today and found my car's at the port! Unfortunately, they can't tell me how long to cross the Atlantic, or what ship the car will be on.

Does anyone know where cars going to CT are delivered? I'm assuming NY, but it would help me figure out the ship if someone could confirm.

Don't worry too much...I called Mini USA on Tuesday and they told me I would start production in week 44 or 45 and then called Thursday and found out it was already in production and would be completed on next Tuesday...so thing can happen fast one they start rolling...
