Week 31 2008 Support... anyone?
Not sure if I'm in the right build week. The website says "On Order", but the ASK MINI automated system says "scheduled for production" with no confirmed completion date. Tomorrow I'm calling for a person to solve this. I ordered on 7/12, which makes me think I'm behind you guys, but week 32 is filled with 09 orders...and I know I'm one of the last 08's. hmmmm....
I can't wait for this all to be over. I'm impatient as it is...but add the stress of selling my old car then there's financing...and then insurance. I'm sure I will forget all my troubles when my mini arrives...but for now...

Good luck selling your car. I just sold mine this week and it's a huge weight off my shoulders. I used ebay Motors and I'm quite please with the price I received and the process.
Luckily, my wife is a teacher so she's out for the summer and can perform the role of driver for a few weeks.
Hopefully, our MINIs will make in on the July 30th boat.
Hey guys, another week 31'er here!
My status on OL says "On Order" and my status on the automated system on ASK MINI says, "Scheduled for production with no estimated completion date". So, I wanted to call ASK MINI for a "real time" update. Well, it's a good thing I did- I found out I have an "estimated" completion date of July 29th! Oh my! That's next week! And I just put in my order on Saturday, July 19th!!
The ASK MINI rep said I'm one of the lucky one's that it happens to
So, I apologize to anyone that I was pushed in front of!

Hmm, I'm confused.
I ordered my JCW yesterday. The dealer and sales manager said it's scheduled to be build the week of August 3. An online calculator tells me that's week 31. Is that right? On the OL it's still listed as "On Order" with the original specs, not mine. The dealer said it might take a day or so to update.
So, assuming it gets built the week of August 3, does that make me a week 31 member?

Congrats Reldieh! Lucky indeed. I've waited almost a month to get into production.
Tu13es I think you're Week 32. But who knows? The way orders are bumped up or down it's hard to really know.
Congrats on your order! I'm just happy people are finally chiming in on this thread!

Hey all I'm in production with completion date of 7/31. Ordered a DS/W JCW with JCW Aero. My VDC is Charleston SC so hopefully should arrive at dealer in DFW by the end of Aug.

Thanks!
Go to the MINI Owners Lounge website. Enter your username and password and sign in. Click on Track Your MINI. Bypass the system check screen. When the Track Your MINI page launches look at the url. Put the 7 digit number that appears after "vehicleid=" in the widget. That's it!

Not yet for me. But according to my MA it's scheduled to complete production on the 31st. That would put me either on the Integrity (leaving Southampton on 8/2) or the Elektra (leaving on 8/5).
Maybe we will luck out and get the Integrity but more likely be the ELEKTRA on Aug 5th. Code changed to Paint Shop today so assembly tomorrow and Final QA on the 30th.
