I was looking at the WW LOGISTICS site and the Tomar has 2 arrival and 2 departure dates. It's like it left and then came back!

What's the current status of your car on the OL or ASK-MINI? Mine still says it's being transferred to the port of exit....I'll be so annoyed if I miss the Tomar!!

It says the same for me. I am not going to worry until the Tomar leaves and we aren't on it!

The Tomar has arrived in the Port of Bremerhaven! Hopefully we will know by tomorrow if we have made the boat.

apparently they're on the Themis Leader...if you check out the last page of the 2012 support group thread, you can read about it...i think Lil Maky wrote about it...it is only a couple hours behind Tomar, but it's making a stop in san diego before it comes to hueneme...

Have you been able to verify this, or a better question is how do we verify this?

Have you tracked your VIN on the WW tracking site in the cargo id box? Mine isn't popping up but I heard a couple other peoples did. I don't think I'm on either of the two ships. My MA is off today, so I will get more info tomorrow.

Mine was just shy of 10 weeks - but I heard that the countryman is taking twice as long as the regular mini's.

Mine finished production on the 2nd. Plenty of time to get on either of these boats. Maybe there is a ton coming over and it's just taking more time to get on one. My wife's car was really quick to be put on a boat. 8 weeks total time from order to pick up.

Yeah, it's not a matter of production time....ours have been finished and at the docks....it must be an overcrowding issue...

So frustrating when you have no clue what's going on with your car.

I think we will be on the Topeka. It is docking in Bremerhaven within the next 4 hours and departs on 4/21 and arrives in California on or around 5/16. Here is a live web cam shot of the auto terminal in Bremerhaven. http://www.blg.de/en/blg-logistics/s...am-automobile/
