Isolde to depart Southampton 10/22/07 arrive Port Hueneme 11/12/07

Call Sign SLKB
Booking number: GBSOU573030

Well this will be number 4 ship I have been booked on. My Mini according to WW site has been sitting at the dock since 9/28/07. Since this is my 4th ship- not holding my breath will actually get on this one either.

My MA tells me I should expect to see the car in 1.5 months lets see that takes me out to end of November.......

Had I actually know it would take this long might have had second thoughts about having one ordered and built...

Or maybe I'm just grumpy from waiting, looking, and getting bumped X3 so far

boats.

This is just my opinion from tracking west coast ships since June, but I still think your Mini has been caught up in a "bug" in the system. Looking at that booking
number I really question the reliability of the info, two of the vehicles have been at the dock since " 6/7/2004 " ??

Once a Mini arrives at the dock in Southampton it does not take 1.5 months to arrive to Port Hueneme, your MA is an idiot if he truly believes that. Also for a Mini
to be stuck at the dock for 19 days like yours is not common, something is very wrong here.

As I have mentioned before, I recommend talking to the Mini manager
or the manager of the dealership and request they start investigating what is actually going on.

I hate to do it but I went over my MA's head and called and e-mailed the sales manager for that dealership.
I insisted he look into the delay and get back to me, we'll see what happens.
Part of the problem is that I live 75 miles from the dealership it is not like I can walk in there whenever.

This is the second Mini I have purchased at this dealership but the first one I ordered. They actually did not make me put $1000.00 down since I was a previous customer-so I could bail if I wanted to..I'm sure they would have no trouble selling it once it finally does arrive.
In fact I have quit telling my spouse about the delays-he already wants me to look at other cars..he hates that service it 75 miles away. He hates that all I want to talk about is when it will get here. He wishes I didn't know how to track it then I wouldn't know there has been a delay....

I want this car....but I tell you the waiting and delays are getting more difficult every day.

Will let you know what the response is from the sales manager should I actually get one.

You have more patience than I though, I would have went with another dealer, even further away after the second time. Hope good news comes your way soon.

Got a call from the MINI sales manager

The sales manager from Ralph Schomp Mini in Denver called me today. He states they have 88 Mini's on order, of course mine is the biggest puzzle. He said that MINI normally calls them if there is something wrong, damage as an example. He agreeds the route mine has taken since production is very unusual.
He does have a way to get in touch with the MINI people. Unfortunatley anyone who is anyone with MINI is in Europe for the launch of the clubman, but he believes he can get in touch with someone to look into it. Said that person could actually go over to the dock and look for it-not sure if he was kidding or not.
Said it might take a day or so for a response because of the meeting but he would call e-mail me back.

He said the normally the cargo site is pretty accurate.

So hopefully if they find out what the problem is they can light a fire under some ones butt and get it on the Isolde for sure

Here's to crossing my fingers.........

Well at least the manager appears to be making an effort, and it is about 66 miles from Oxford to Southampton, so perhaps he will find someone to make the trip.
I agree with him as for the WW site info usually being accurate, just that when it shows two vehicles as being at the dock waiting for a ship for 3 years, one has to question the data.

Hopefully he will be able to find out what the problem is and get back to you soon. Good luck and let us know what happens.

Great News Guy!

I'm hoping to make the Isolde as well since my build completes 10/20........ Not there yet though, last 3 digits in my VIN are 559 and I see as high as around 500 in the log so I'm about 50 cars off so far.

Scroll down to the RED listing - this shows a problem somewhere and yours is part of it. With all this wasted time, You could have orderd from EB Mini - 35min drive from Oakland Airport and driven back home and made a long weekend out of it... I do wish you luck ole friend....

You can check your VIN # on the WW site and see if you are booked for that ship.

Isolde is moored and loading in Southampton 160 cars

To catch everyone up. My Slales Mgr called on Saturday and said he e-mailed those in the know regarding the delays on my car actually loading. Since there is no one in on SAT on the UK, I wait again.

Harley- I know where you are going with this...but flying to CA for the sake of getting the car quicker is really not my style. If the car does not get on this ship. I think I am going to call them and insist they re-order, should actually be quicker that way.
The closest dealership to Denver is NM or maybe AZ- CA is ways from that!

Til then I wait and cross my fingers that my car load and finally be on it's way.

The ship has sailed. According to W&W, there were 161 vehicles booked, but two are still showing as "received at terminal", the others are all showing as "loaded on vessel". Interesting, the two that are not shown as loaded both arrived at the terminal early in the cycle, one on 02 October and one on 28 September.

Our vehicle came late, it was built on Saturday 20 October, received at the terminal Sunday 21 October and loaded today at 14:00, UK time.

Now the wait until 12 November arrival at Port Hueneme begins.

Yeah the one that states received at terminal on 9/28 is mine- it has missed 4 ships and is now booked on the 5th the Maersk Teal set to sail on 10/29.
Trying to get it straightened out with my MA. I ordered the car on 9/6, ended production on 9/21 and has been sitting on the dock since 9/28.

Tracking Info

Anybody managed to successfully track the Isolde since she left Southampton? I've tried a number of resources, but so far nothing has shown up.

Just curious (and impatient)

Since the sailwx.info site is not showing any previous history for Isolde, looks like your Captain either does not use the AIS system, or does not have the system onboard.
So you will be unable to track her on the Atlantic voyage, she is scheduled to arrive at Colon Panama at the MIT port on 11/03. So she could show up on the
AISfree map late afternoon on 11/02 or early morning on 11/03.

Thanks Tharkun. Waiting will be painful, but I guess I'll survive

That is the correct date for Isolde, it will be making the trek thru the Panama Canal on 11/3 between 4-6am (PST) and is scheduled to arrive at Port Hueneme on 11/12.
Usual time from the VDC to the bay area dealers is 7 - 9 days, if you have dealer items being installed at the VDC that can add some additional time.
Your MA is most likely over estimating to be safe.

You can verify the dates HERE

looks like Isolde is going to be arriving in Panama a day earlier than originally scheduled

. It's now arriving 11/2/07! Maybe after Panama it can make up some more time

If there is interest, I'll post some links and hints on tracking Isolde thru the canal before arrivial on 11/02. She should be starting thru the locks early morning of 11/03.
