Nice SPF Zero! I hope I can make it on the PATRIOT by June 6th if I complete on June 4th. That will allow me to pick it up 3rd week of June and maybe just maybe make it to MTTS in Boston!

 

nice!

 

looks like i would board ship on the Independence 2 which departs June 8th (Altoid will be finished June 6...do you think he would make it?).

 

DChap,

I'm afraid I've bad news in that you appear to be reading the schedule wrong. The INDEPENDENCE II departs from Southhampton, England today, May 30th and will arrive in NYC on June 8th.

If Altoid will be completed on June 6th your earliest ship into NYC will probably be the MIGNON which departs Southhampton on the 10th.

 

looks like ill prob be on the mignon as well.. if everything goes well.. haha

 

ooo nice catch. you indeed are right, i am reading it backwards haha.

 

Anyone know anything about ships coming to brunswick Ga?

 

Bandit,

Looking at the file SPF ZERO put together for us, if you are in Week 23 you've got a chance to catch the PATRIOT on June 6th or the MIGNON on June 10th. They will arrive on the 23rd and 24th of June respectively. If you for some reason miss the MIGNON, you'll be waiting until at least July 1st.

 

You guys are awesome! Thanks!!

 

zonedguy-
maybe I'm reading it wrong but it says for Brunswick- id probably be catching a ride on Elektra June 10th. Is that right?

 

Now you have me doubting myself....

But I checked the W&W site and I'm afraid you will not be on the ELEKTRA as it left England three days ago. To determine which ship you'd be a candidate for you have to first look at the Southhampton date. That is the DEPARTURE date for the ship on which your MINI will be loaded. You can then follow the rest of the dates which are ARRIVAL dates for those ports. If the field is empty, the ship isn't stopping by.

 

Zonedguy, you are reading it right!! i was reading it wrong!

My 'born' day is June 2nd, so i might even make the Fidelio on june 5th. I like the sound of being on the Patriot though

 

If you're starting production on the 2nd, you'll probably complete on Monday the 9th. That will make it an awfully tight window to make it on the MIGNON. :(

 

I started production May 27th with a completion - birthday of June 2nd. (I think I'm actually week 22)

 

I just called about Nugget, they started her on May 27 and the completion day is June 3-yeah!!!

 

that was a great find! thanks! Since I'm set to be completed on the 3rd, I'm hoping to be on Fidelio leaving on the 5th or Patriot leaving on the 6th to be in NY by June 14 or 16th!

Oh so Mini sent me the Field Guide to Good Motoring in the mail today (booklet). Anyone else get something?

 

Still no production date for me... Ordered 5/15...... what the hell??

 

toolazy,

No mail for me yet :(

StarryEyed,

Call on Monday, that will put you 5 days behind those of us from 5/10.

 

to keep things clear lets all go with born date = finished production (waiting for a ride on the ship)

cool?

I didnt get a projected completion date.. Anyone else start today? What was your completion date? I am guessing around the 5th. So I highly doubt I/we would make the fidelio or patriot (going to NY)..

Mignon most likely.. or asian chorus which also has 19-jun arrival date.

 

I called 1 866 ASK MINI and was told week 23, maybe 24. Called back today (1 week later) and was told that they did not know what week number only that it had not started production yet!!! Joining the week 23 group in th hope that the first ASK MINI guy was right...
Ordered 5/10, Long Beach Mini CA
Mini Clubman Black, Black, Silver

 

I'm back! Just called ASK-MINI and they're telling me Week 23 again. Result!

 

Yeah Mozza! Great news ... lets keep it at Week 23!

 

Fingers crossed chowdah. Good to be back in your company!

Welcome to Week 23! Some of us have had our weeks pushed up and back so it will be nice when production starts so we can track our babies! AskMini told me my car was being built on May 19-a day later they said, "No, you're Week 23, maybe overlapped into Week 24." Aaaaahhhh ... Hold on for more drama!
