For some reason their website does not work with my browser. But the car just came... so it might not show on their website yet.

My car was on Falstaff and heading up to SF, due on the 13th, according to OL. I haven't heard from my MA yet.

Did anyone on the Falstaff or Tristan hear from their MA before you got in contact with them?

My MA did not call me. It looks like I have to call myself to get the pick-up date.

My car does not show up in their inventory list either.

I had to contact my sales rep. 'cause most likely I can only pickup this weekend or the next one. And even for weekends there are plans, so I wanted to know in advance how my plans play together with car's delivery.

OK, my MA is off today and my car was at dealer one day already. So, I'll pick it up either tomorrow or, if I can find a ride, today.

Who is your MA? I e-mailed mine this morning and haven't heard anything. What number did you call for East Bay? I need to know when I can pick mine up because I leave for southern california on the 18th. :D

Share your experience if you pick up today, please.

I was going to pickup today, but could not make it, so maybe sometime tomorrow.

I picked up mine from South Bay mini today! It was a very wonderful experience!

I just found out one of my backup light ran out / doesn't work. Do I need to go back to the dealership that I purchased my car from? Or it can be done in any mini dealer for free??

Mini Clubman has only one backup light. Another slot is for the fog light.

Estimated Delivery Date is to the dealer. My estimated date was 12/11 and my MA called me on 12/10 to tell me it was already in. I picked it up on 12/11.

In my experience, it was delivery to the dealer. It then took another 2 days to get the car prepped and delivered to me.

Picked up 12/13. Relatively painless process. 2009 MCC looks great.

Nice Clubman

Very nice. That is the same color Clubman my wife wants. What does the inside look like. Did you get the sport seats?

Everything is by default inside, no sport seats. Standard seats are OK, I would like the seat bottom to be a little longer though (I'm tall).

It's here! It's here!

And we are soooo happy with the interior, of which we do not yet have pics. Cream line interior with the piano black trim.

Our dealer did the stripes for us and we absolutely love them!
