I guess I have went from a week 7 to a week 6...
I was originally a week 7, production originally scheduled to start today, the 13th.
Calling in, ask mini said my car would be finished the 15th.
I called in yesterday, it says my car is at the port!
Last night, it said I was on the Tancred, to be shipped out the 14th.
Today, it says I'm on the Freedom, and already shipped out!
I have to wait for the car to ship from NY to California though, so I still have a couple more weeks after it gets to Mini of the Hamptons.

Any West Coast people who missed the Carmen have any updated information? My VIN is still not showing up on the WW site after it disappeared when the Carmen set sail. It never changed to "loaded on vessel" before the Carmen left so I assume I am still sitting on the docks.
I'm wondering if I'll be able to catch the Falstaff that is scheduled to arrive on Friday.
I think having a tracking system with very little information is worse than no tracking at all :(

VIN # Stuck in my head
I must be sick. 
Who else has typed their VIN into the WW site so many times that you have now memorized it? I for one have never taken the time to memorize a VIN before, let alone memorize a VIN for a car I don't even own yet!!
Yet with all that checking, I still don't know what happened to my Mini after it apparently missed the Carmen on Sunday. The Falstaff is two days out but there is no indication that it has been re-booked on the Falstaff. Has anyone else who missed the Carmen figured out if their Mini is scheduled on the Falstaff or any other ship?

The next Wallenius ship to the West Coast is the Falstaff which is currently in Gothenburg, Sweden and scheduled for Southampton on 18Feb06. Don't now if there are any other ships from other lines.
Has anyone else from previous build weeks seen their VIN disappear from the WW website? Does it show up again later re-booked on another ship? Or does this mean it was booked on another line?

As of the 17th, the FREEDOM hasn't shown up on either of the two ocean tracking sites. However, it has been pushed back two more days (from the 21 > now to 23) to arrive in NY due to the storm in the Atlantic according to WW. In my quest to actually find the ship, I did locate the owners/operators site which does have an email listed >>

So am I the only one still waiting on the docks? My MA said I am still waiting for a boat to the West coast as of today. I am hoping to get the Falstaff tomorrow but my VIN is still not showing up on the WW site. Anyone by chance have a booking number for the Falstaff so I can try and look up my VIN? Beter yet, does anyone have a large cargo vessel that I can borrow for the weekend?
