I just turned 1000 miles. I'm getting 40+/- MPG, but I have been taking it easy (below 4500 RPM) and will do an oil change this weekend. Old school break-in procedure will then be over.

I got loaded onto the Fedora on 02-07-2009 at 11:31:00. Is it just me or has the ship been in port for quite a while now (32+ hours)?

Don't think it's just you. The status is listed as moored and Halifax has been pushed back two days meaning NYC will probably be the 11th, not the 9th.
hmmmmm

Ladies and gentleman. Track your MINI riding the Fedora across the pond via - http://aprs.fi/?call=266259000 As far as I can tell it has no problems following boats across open water

Very cool! I'll have to wake up early Thursday morning to see it steam in.

The arrival of the Fedora in NY got pushed back to the 11th. I know the other people on the Fedora aren't liking the delays, but I am loving them. I can't pick up my MINI until the 24th or later (money timing) so every delay puts it closer and closer to not waiting on the dealership lot for me.

I'm 99% sure the Fedora just left Halifax! I have the webcam image, will be posting it shortly.
