SUV and depending on the motorcycle which can be a little
tricky this time of year.

Length at VDS?

So what actually happens when they unload a boat? A bunch of cargo crates come off and are lined up and serially gone through removing the cars to be transported to the dealer? My ship arrived 9 days ago and the estimated delivery was 4/14 but still no sign of it-my MA said that the car still shows awaiting to be released for delivery

they go to VDC

once off-loaded your cooper goes to the Vehicle delivery center.
this is where they pull of the protective plastic,clean the car
run tests and also install certain options.there is a video on the
owners lounge page you can link to after logging in and tracking
your mini.
