My name is Kim and our first MINI was a 2003, so I combined them all to come up with my screen name! Now I guess I should change it to Kimini08, but I don't think they let you change.

I checked that site and the last date on the Emden was May 7, I guess they don't check in a lot......

Joe, Did MINI give you your ship info? They told me we only know that is was shipped and nothing else. I asked what ship, shipping company, numbers, ect.............they said oh we don't know any of that

Thankyou very much! I owe it entirely to COOPERation. A polite request with an interesting idea was what it took.

COOPERation did a grand job! I can't thank him enough.
You can find the link here.

Cheerio!

It should list a Port Location on the order confirmation your dealer gave you. Charleston is CHSPOA

Too funny.. I nearly posted here in week 21 too.

I just poked around on Google Maps 'til I found an area that looked like Mini's. I convinced myself that I found them, but who knows? Not so easy to tell, but the roofs seem to be convincing....

It's not live.. Just the last time Google captured satellite images from their supplier...

Exactly. Once it's done production, Ask-Mini won't have any idea(from my experience). Mine ended up making a KLine boat that left only 3 days after my production end date(5/14), but I was wasting my time checking the WW site for almost a week. Call your MA - they'll be able to tell you what boat it's booked on.
