Looks like I missed boat number two leaving the port. next ship that I can track doesn't leave until the 18th. I think there is one or two K-line ships but looking for that info is like pulling teeth. Getting kind of nervous now since I want to have it properly broken in before I head up to the Dragon this year. and I want to have all my mods put on before then too.

Just called ASKMINI again, the auto guy tells me its 'in transit' OL say awaiting transit, customer rep says she can only see its at the port, my MA says he cant find any info other than its still in Southampton. A K-line ship left yesterday so maybe i'm on that (wishful thinking). Waiting for my second MINI is worse than the first because I know what im missing out on. Currently i'm driving a 99 z28 camaro which isnt the best sipper on gas.

It's been a really long wait for me (production took nearly a month to start) and being on the West Coast just adds insult to injury with regard to wait time. I'll be at about 11 weeks all told. Glad it's nearly over....

hemisedan,
I guess I missed the boat
My Clubman S has been in the "Waiting for Transport" mode for three days and now your saying yours was just loaded up and on it's way, good for you bad for me
I'm on the West Coast too, I guess I'll just have to keep eating my popcorn

Being on the West (Best) Coast
, unfortuantely for us, ships don't 'leave daily'. We are screwed in more ways than one, sadly. I missed three boats, each leaving about a week or almost two from the last. Here's what is leaving Southampton on the WW Lines in the next few weeks:SOUTHAMPTON26/03/2013 PORT HUENEME, CA17/04/2013 TOREADORCD312-TOD22
SOUTHAMPTON05/04/2013 PORT HUENEME, CA30/04/2013 BESSCX313-BSS25
and here is another line that comes to Port Hueneme that a few folks caught over here that we didn't even know about:

Apologies if you knew all this before. There aren't many of us over here, so hope I was able to help!
Thanks,
Kim

Well, the Capricornus Leader is currently in Long Beach, after stopping in San Diego yesterday. Tomorrow should finally reach Port Hueneme, then probably another 3-5 days to get to my dealer. Quite the wait...

I didn't have this information, everything is/was moving along so nicely I can only hope now that I get on one of the earlier ships. The Southampton sounds like a great ship to me!
Keeping my fingers crossed.
Thanks again,
Jeff

Be sure a nd post pictures when you pick it up! I have a SO R59 on the way. The Tiger just turned south in the Celtic Sea and is starting its way to Panama. 21 days and counting to CA!
Well my Coupe has been at the dealership in Minneapolis since the 3rd of March. It has been horrible knowing it is there and I don't have it but I leave ND tonight at 10pm on the train bound for Minneapolis. As long as everything goes as planned I will be on the road headed back to ND tomorrow morning in my new Baby :-)
As for all those who are still waiting, hang in there......

Just got an email from my MA that Marron is in fact out to see on the Athens Highway with an arrival date of 3.23 into Brunswick. Its amazing the disconnect throughout the ordering and shipping process but i'm lucky to have a great MA who's on top of things and genuinely seems to care about me and my purchase.

You're welcome! Just a quick note, Southampton is actually your port in England. The two ships are 'Toreador' leaving UK 3/26 arriving in CA 4/17 and 'Bess' leaving UK 4/5 arriving in CA on 4/30.
Just wanted to clarify. Fingers crossed here for you too!
