The OL has finally caught up with my order. Showed On Order until a few days ago. Now it is Scheduled for Production with a VIN.

 

I want to be back in the week 40 group . This extra week is killing me.

 

Now that my Production is complete. The Million dollar question now is? Will it make it to COURAGE on 4th OCT, assuming by what you guys say 36 hours to Southhampton, I think she is well on her way to make it. If that is the case, then I am looking at 13th OCT..! Really excited. Do you guys think if it is possible.

 

It's just now getting exciting for you though! hang in there! You'll be rolling down the assembly line before you know it.

I wouldn't hold my breath. I don't know why, but I've heard of cars sitting at the dock for a couple weeks before getting on a boat.

Hmmm...! Looking all ominous so far.. Yeah you are right.. You Never know...!

 

Woohoo! No calls to the crackline today! It's a proud moment for me, so I wanted to share!

I will, of course, call first thing in the morning though as Stella, in all her beauty will be born tomorrow!

 

I'll admit it... I called twice today. My MINI is in the body shop, estimated completion is still 10/4.

 

The OCMD sure starts taking hold once you know your car physically exists, doesn't it?

 

My Mini is waiting for a carrier as well; called ASK MINI but thay can't track any further, so I called my MA who said he would let me know as soon as he knows who the carrier is - he knows I want to track the boat across the pond - exciting! It should be assigned tomorrow - we'll see
He said it should be about fourteen days til he has it at the dealer( RI).

 

I feel your pain. My completion date is scheduled as 10/5. Does anyone actually work on Sunday?

 

The factory is 24/7.

 

14 days is pretty good. What port is yours coming into? Mine will be in the Jersey port. It would be great if those of us done already (mine should be done today) could catch that boat tomorrow, but I just don't see how that would happen. There are probably some Week 39ers waiting for that ship.

 

Just checked the Mini web site and my wife's Mini is now scheduled for production! Woohoo! Does this mean it is a week 40 or 41 production?

 

I just HAD to check the WW website this a.m. BEFORE my MA could get to his computer ....
My MINI is booked on the COURAGE!!!!
The COURAGE is now leaving Bremerton,Germany today (10/3) and will be in Southhampton on 10/5 with a schedule arrival and departure the same day
arrival in New York ( Jersey City) on 10/13 !!!
Still hoping the dealer will have it by Friday 10/17
Well,OK that may be pushing it a bit..maybe Saturday 10/18

 

Aw, lucky you. I'm probably going to miss the courage by a day. I called this morning and mine is in transport to the dock. I checked the WW website and no signs of her yet (you just put your VIN into the auto cargo page, right?).

I hope the weather's not too bad in Southhampton for the next week.

 

Congrats to everyone on the way to the dock or awaiting transport! Yipeee! I couldn't wait any longer and I broke down and called MINI again. My baby's in the paint shop and is still on schedule to be done on Sunday. I'm hoping I make it onto the Tombarra next Thursday.

My local dealer is having a MINI Halloween party on Oct. 25 and I'd love to take delivery and celebrate at the party but I don't think that will happen. I will probably take delivery after Nov. 1. The wait is killing me!!!!

 

Just confirmed mine is at the port waiting shipping

Is WW Cargo the only transport that goes to the West Coast? I didn't see anything on K-Line's schedule. If that's the case, she should make the oct 13th WW ship...

 

Cool n Congrats. My Status now says "Your Vehicle is being tranported to the Port of Exit" Hopefully it Makes it to COURAGE tomorrow. I called ASK-MINI yesterday and she said, that I am 3 days ahead of schedule.

 

I have just checked WW Website and I am Estatic..! Mine is also booked on Courage and arrival on 10/13. I live in New Jersey so I could expect it by 10/16???

 

Mine is in the paint shop today too and scheduled to be completed tomorrow. Hoping to be on the Tombarra as well.

Bon Voyage and safe travels to all those boarding the COURAGE this weekend!

 

Nice to see there will still be some MINI's sitting around keeping mine company this week as mine appears to be headed on the Tombarra as well.

See you stateside!

 

bhelton, our MINI's are definitey keeping each other company. I have been out of town for the past five days for a trainers course in which we train chickens and it definitey kept my mine off my MINI obsession at points. My Clubman still has about a week at the dock before making the boat so having that time to distract me was nice.

Welcome new Week 40'ers!

 

Hey Coopdy, when are you hoping to have your MINI picked up at the dock? I'm shooting for Thursday on the Tombarra, but I don't have any information on it. The WW site still says no tracking info available.

Anybody else who's not already on a boat know when they're gettin' a lift from WW or K-Line?

 

My MINI was born on Saturday and is now at the Port of Exit just hanging out with everyone else. No info on WW site yet.

 

I called this morning and I am mine is in paint this morning. Looks like I am an in betweener (between 40 and 41.) About how long is it after paint before it leaves for the docks. Seems like some of you guys are finishing the next day after paint. ASK MINI couldn't really tell me how much longer.
