Great News! Sounds like you are in the home stretch.

 

If WW get's the ship, it's on their web site within 24-48 hours. So you're probably assigned to a K-Line ship, which does not supply much information on-line. You can check the sticky tracking thread in 1st Gear to look at your options.

Hope it arrives soon!

 

You're probably being built alongside my Roadster S. Congratulations, QH!

 

the best resource about if it got on the boat is the dealer....thats how i found out my Paceman was loaded on a K-Line ship on the 3rd...the boat mine is on is the "Columbia Highway" which just left Southampton yesterday and last track shows its almost out of the Channel

 

WhooHoo! Production Complete and awaiting release to transportation!!

About another month to wait while it takes a slow boat to CA.
(Avoiding errant Icebergs, Hurricanes and Sea Monsters along the way! ).

 

Awesome. I can't vouch for the Sea Monsters...

 

Damn I knew if Al Gore did not get my Penny with his icebergs he'd think of something else.... now I gots to be worried about his Sea Monsters.

Time to hit the Bourbon

 

Congratulations!!!
There be pirates about, and water spouts and Moby **** Blue Whales...... No... That's Universal Studios in Florida.

I am wishing your Mini Bon Voyage"

 

I ordered my 2014 Crystal Silver CM All4 on August 20. My MA emailed me yesterday to let me know it was finished. I'm sooo excited! I've wanted a MINI for a long time. I was glad to find this support group as the wait is so hard!

 

Congrats on reaching the important milestone of Production Completion! There are several posts in this thread and others to help you track your MINI's voyage across the high seas.

You're probably about 4 weeks until you can take and share a picture of your CM. Your support group is partial to single malt scotch (or whatever you may enjoy) to help the wait (seem to) go faster.

 

Thanks! I just finished reading all the posts. Apparently, I'm also in pack 112. My port is Brunswick, GA. They are installing the driving lights there as well. After reading about the delays at the VDC, I'm even more stressed. However, it sounds like I'm in the right support group as I do enjoy adult beverages. Waiting on a mini definitely makes me want to sip a bit more than usual!

 

Mine is at the dealer today!!

I feel kinda bad. Got it pretty quick for west coast. Ordered it on the 27th of July and it's here!

 

Nothing to feel bad about. CONGRATULATIONS !!! We will all have that great feeling you are enjoying right now in the coming weeks. The wait is what makes it special when it does arrive.

Raising a glass of Booker's Bourbon to toast your arrival. Can not drink that single malt stuff yet. Post more pic's when you can

 

That is quick...wow only 42 days from order to delivery on the west coast??? Considering that it takes a minimum of 22 days just for ocean shipping from Oxford to Port Hueneme, CA, you really must have perfectly hit all of the cut off times in ordering, production, train to port, customs clearing, Panama Canal travel, etc. Don't know what the unofficial record is, but I'd nominate your time!

No need to feel bad...you'll be driving your new MINI very soon! Enjoy and be sure to wave!

 

Delivery to the West Coast in such short time. Wow! Congratulations on the ride, Shubert.

 

Amazingly Quick!
Great news! Was it built in Oxford?
You will be able to post pictures soon.

;-)

 

I will post pics as soon as I can. That one above is from my MA. I'm waiting to hear when the dealer installed options will be done and I can go pick it up.

I CAN'T WAIT!!

 

I don't know if I could sleep. I feel like a 57 year-old kid awaiting Christmas.

 

Just got a return call from my MA that my MINI will be at the dealer on Tuesday 9/10! We'll plan to pick it up that afternoon, and will post pics asap.

All in all, that would make 49 days after placing my order, and 36 days after the start of production to dealer delivery in the Chicago area.

Now that it seems like the late-August Oxford log-jam is over and things are back up to speed, I hope my friends on NAM will also be getting their own good news on delivery very soon!

Enjoying a Jack Daniels on the rocks to celebrate!

 

Congratulations, Kenny! Tuesday is the day!

I appreciate your timeline breakdowns. If I approximate your schedule from the production start date [9/4], delivery to Northern Virginia should occur by 10/10. I might shave time off because my ship docks at Baltimore, only an hour's drive from my MINI dealership. You're quite a bit further north and west in Chicago.

It figures. We leave for a two week vacation along the Florida Gulf Coast on 10/12. I may have the Roadster a few days before leaving, or I might have to wait an additional two weeks before I see it.

 

Congratulations!!! Don't feel bad one bit!!! Just enjoy

 

Congrats!! Looking forward to the pics. Hope you have a nice sunny day for the pickup.

 

Penny she missed the ship that left today as my status is awaiting release to the carrier so she is at least at the dock. My minor miracle did not happen so one extra week to wait. All in all not bad as I set early Oct for delivery.

 

Sorry you missed the most recent voyage, but it would have been pretty hard to get it on a ship so quickly after being built. Hope you get booked on a WW ship, as they are much easier (and fun) to track and get info and updates.

 

Yeah wishful thinking that's why I mentally was prepared for the ship departing on the 15th. Pretty sure on WW, based on production thread, It will be delivered to NYC/Jersey City.

Early October will be just fine plenty of the New England fall weather left for some nice scenic rides.
