7 more days to docking in Baltimore....

 

In the Owner's Lounge. Short clips covering everything from the OBC settings to stereo controls to seat adjustments. Ha.... yep.... anything to get us thru the wait!

 

Won't be long now!

 

That's awesome!! Just maybe in 7 days I will be on a ship!!

 

Nice. Your unusually long wait is finally almost over!

 

Those are good little videos. I'm hoping my car will come with a manual for the non-navigation system. The PDF manuals I've found for the 2013 Hardtop don't even mention the standard speedometer and audio controls.

 

I've been watching those on my iPhone using the "Mini On Track" app.

 

June 6. Still at the port. Even if I make the Tiger by Friday, you'll still have it before me. I'm on the west coast.

 

If mine gets out of production on Monday, as my MA told me it will, then yes, I would not be surprised if I get mine first. Unless it ends up on the Integrity taking a world tour !

 

yeah... and I've noticed there is no specific owner's manual available on their site for the JCW. Guess their is no specific info on the JCW powertrain you need to know.

 

You can download PDFs of the 2013 MINI owner's manuals at the Library of Motoring. I've been using mine to help me go to sleep for weeks!

Go to http://libraryofmotoring.info/2013/0...ilable-online/.

 

Thanks, appears to be the same ones available in the owner's lounge. No JCW Hardtop specific manual. Their is one for the GP. The one they give you on the owner's lounge when you click on JCW hardtop is the "Hardtop/Clubman" manual. I find it odd, but oh well.

 

I downloaded that PDF version and wondered the same thing. Turns out there are two separate manuals. The printed one that actually came with my car (no nav) only mentions the standard controls and menus.

 

They are the same, but the versions from the OL wouldn't download to iBooks on my iPad. The ones from the Library of Motoring did.

 

Got it, thanks again... saved that website as a favorite, appears lots of good stuff available there.

 

Hey, fellow Waiters ! This thread is awfully quiet today. You all magically get your MINIs today and out motoring ??

 

Not much to do when the boat is in the ocean. No new statuses to get till it arrives!

 

You could track the ship and tell us exactly where in the big ol' Atlantic Ocean it is at every given minute.

 

I'm in the same boat for my justa 2013 Clubman.

FWIW - The MINI on Track iPhone App looks like it has some instructions info for the non-navigation system (Radio MINI Boost CD) although it seems a bit limited.

 

Scarlett has completed production, and she has been handed over to the carrier for transport to the port of exit.

 

Cool !! Feels good to know your MINI isn't just in your imagination now but actually exists, huh ?

 

Well, tomorrow is the day for me. The Tiger docks and leaves on Friday. I really hope my car is slated for that ship.

What... you don't want to wait for the Integrity ?

I shouldn't joke... that's likely the ship mine is going to be on.

 

Anyone who is on the Asian King it should be in NYC tomorrow!

 

Yup! This has been in the works for 3 years now. I'm looking forward to a long drive along the coast with the top down.
