Cool! Thanks for sharing the Marine Traffic website, I hadn't looked at it before. It was fun clicking around the map looking at random vessels.

It'll be fun to follow our ships over to the US :-)

Looks like my car will not be on the Torino. I was able to check VIN #s from some week 44 cars that are headed to the same dealership and both are showing as booked. Mine is still showing no record found.

Looks like mine hit the body shop today. Still on pace for a Nov. 9 completion date. If everything goes well, it should be able to make the 11/18 sailing on the Manon, out of Southampton, headed to Port Hueneme.

Nice. Going to be a long wait until the Manon arrives in Southampton. It is currently headed for Bristol. Probably dropping off cars picked up in Japan. At least the journey to Port Hueneme is a little shorter on the Manon than the Torino (21 vs 25 days).

Mine is finished now. Next ship for Baltimore, MD is the Tarago... departing on the 10th (9 days transit, arriving on the 19th.) My guess is that I'll be on that ship. At least, I sure hope so!!!

That would be code 160. Train ride to Southampton is next . Next code is 193. At that point the WW track and trace may start working.

Nice. Good chance for the Manon. If the Manon stays on schedule our cars will be in port on Dec 10. At the dealers by the 17th.

Manon is in port in Zeebrugge. Only a couple more stops before it heads to Bremerhaven to pick up BMWs and MINI Countrymans.

My VIN just showed up on the WW track and trace. Unfortunately, I didn't make the ship leaving today, but I will be on the Integrity tomorrow. Scheduled to arrive in Baltimore on Nov 22.


Integrety left Bremerhaven last night and should arrive at Southampton tomorrow morning. Yahoo!!!

That's awesome!

(I feel a bit lonely crossing the Atlantic all by myself while the rest of you are on the Manon together. But, at least mine departs from Southampton tomorrow. )

The Manon is finally underway to Malmo, Sweden . Can't tell if there are any more stops after Malmo before Bremerhaven.

Sweet!!! That's a week earlier than you originally thought. How cool is that!

(My ship, the Integrity, is currently docked in Southampton. Arrived several hours ago. It's fun to think that my car will be on its way this evening!)

My JCW is at the port waiting to be assigned a vessel. Not sure how far in advance the booking takes place, but the Manon is now scheduled to leave on the 19th of November.

Mine still says awaiting a shipping vessel on ASK MINI. Have you tried your VIN in the WW track and trace?

I have, a few times. Still comes up as "No Records Found".

ASK MINI says it was released to the carrier.
