not me either! tick tock tick tock...

 

i checked what ships are sailing from southampton to ny and the 'freedom' leaves on aug 5, arrives in new york aug 14. i suspect that's our ship...

 

I'm still waiting too...I thought mine would hop onto the Tasco...but now I'm hoping it's Freedom also, it stops at Charleston, SC after NY...

 

If you are scheduled on the MIGNON, east coast...here is a live location of the ship on its journey... http://www.sailwx.info/shiptrack/shi...html?call=SJCD

 

Finally!

My car's been booked for travel!

It's on the FREEDOM (callsign WDB5483). It's scheduled to depart Southampton 8/5 at 18:00. According to sailwx it's still at sea on it's way to Southampton so they must stop load and go, no R&R for the crew! This ship tracking stuff is really cool!

 

My Ma is not returning my email . I'll give her another day . anybody from the west coast on a boat yet?

 

You could always try 1-866-ASK-MINI and ask for a representative. They have been extremely friendly and helpful whenever I've called!

 

ok! I plugged my info into wallenius 's website and lo and behold I was loaded and saied on 8/3 on the Tasco.. I hate livin gon the West coast for the moment becasue it is going to take three weeks to get to the west coast after Charleston, Georgia and Panama before Port Heuneme. Scheduled to Arrive in Socal 8/26 So it is right on schedule of early sept as I was told by Mini of concord. Well the time should fly by :impatient

 

Hey Snoggin! Since there are less of you than on PW29, I thought I'd come over and pad your post totals. Seriously though, I can't believe I'm just chatting and chattting. I'm NOT a chatty person. This is what I'm reduced to while waiting for my new Baby! It kills the time so I guess I'll just chat on.:impatient When its over, I'll go back to my introverted self.

 

Whooa. The Tasco makes east coast stops and then goes around to the west coast? That sux.

 

Your telling me. yuou would hink theyd go the polar route or something:impatient

 

I'm tracking mine........in Halifax Tuesday and then another week to train it to Toronto....we should be picking it by the 23rd?

 

bump

 

I am seasick , pass the dramamine

 

I hear ya man me too! Burp...

I just keep picking out more and more aftermarket mods I want to bolt on...I'm driving my wife nuts!

 

I'm sorry but we i n the Pw 30 support group are really lame . Or very patient. Pw29 people are driving around now so you PW 30 people on the east coast can not be far off. I figure I have two weeks to go still. I haven ttakent the time to figure out where the tasco is. maybe tonite I will try and figure it out. I have been riding my bike at th3 track alot but its hard on me as I just had back surgery two months ago. I need the mini so I can take it easy. I am getting the convertible in Hot Orange so it will be sorta like a bike . Just slower but it will be interesting to see how the MCS will really do in the twisties compared to a bike. I may be pleasantly surprised . POST UP PEOPLE!!!!

 

Snog 'n Surf! At least you guys got each other. I feel bad for u snoggin because 'smurf will be past break-in by the time ur boat hits port human. Anyway for both of you, the fact is, you will both be sportin in new MINI'S soon! Hang in!

 

Ok folks...lost track of the Mignon on Tuesday which tells me the MINI's almost in Toronto now (I can almost smell that new engine.....mmmmmmmmmm.....I hope to have it for our anniversary next Saturday...getting ready to throw the focus at the dealer with the keys any day now.....woooohooooooooo

 

The Freedom's left NY and is on it's way to Baltimore now...it's expect to arrive in Charleston this Saturday...I sure hope my Mini's not putting on weight being on this cruise ship for so long!

 

Hey the Freedom as arrived in Charleston a day early?! Woohoo!

Hopefully it gets thru the distribution center ASAP!
I would guess my Mini will be available for pickup close to next week...meanwhile, still waiting...

 

i'm in nyc and am picking it up today at noon!

 

I told you you guys will start picking up your cars soon. I'M STILL WAITING! (PW 29) Turns out I had a one inch (supposedly) light (supposedly) scratch on the left rear quarter and they held it in the VPC to fix it! Its on its way (supposedly) and I should be able to pick him up on Tuesday (supposedly). I'm OK with it. Its no big deal. In life, snit happens and you move on. Really though, once he's here, I'll forget about it as I'll be so trippin' on it that I won't be able to wipe the grin off of my face.

 

We want some pics . there are no pictures in this thread and you could be the first

 

By the way my ship The Tasco has left Panama and is now in the pacific headed for Port heuneme sic. I still have a week to wait though till it gets there so at least ten more days.. luckily I am going out of town for 6 days to distract me.

 

got in sat, but immediately left town for a drive to upstate ny.
check it out. so sweet, so fast, absolutely perfect, it actually growls. only trouble is i can't take it the tach over 4500 rpms for another 1000 miles. ack!
