Production Week 30 Support Group

edit: I didnt see one so I figured I'd start one. Mine will be born 7/28


I havent been able to talk to a rep at Ask MINI yet but My HO MCSC is due to be completed on 7/28. Would this make me Production week 30? I see 7/17 is week 29 which is a monday . the 28th is a friday but at the end of the week following the 17th so guessing PW 30. Anyone else? Starting to get excited. I guess i have to wait till 6am tomorrow to call Ask MINI. Been out of the usa for the last week so only able to look at the website. SCheduled for production

Yup week 30 is this week. Our new baby is to be born this week as well (Soho Edition). My slight delay issue will be due to the pending east cost port going on a brief shut down for renovations but we are still expecting it in August

So I guess after tomorrow we get to start checking the shipping manifests. I have checked miniusa twice today to see if it might have gotten done early . Not good at delayed gratification you know. Still scheduled for production.. I talke to a rep at ask mini day before yesterday and mine was going into the paint shop. I cant bring myself to call them everyday though , I would feel like a pest

I think I must be the same week. Mine was born on July 26. I am a newbie and have never posted on amessage board but I'm so excited about my first new car. I was told a production comletion date of 8/18 because I think the plant is closed 8/1-8/14.

My car is a cooper s convertible, hyper blue with blue interior.

Mine says it was schededuled to be completed on 7/28. I guess if the status doesn't change by Monday I'll have to call someone to verify everything's ok. I hope mine doesn't miss the boat!

Well I am now awaiting transport so my status has changed finally. Since i am a west coaster I dont think i can check the WW website as they use an alternate shipper, right? I guess i will wait till fiday or so and call my MA and see if i can find out what ship I will be on. Lets keep posted with everyones progress eh?

I called 1-866-ASK-MINI and talked to a rep. He said my Mini's official birthday was July 29th! It's now awaiting the boat at the South Hampton dock. They expect it will catch the boat this week and cross the pond to Charleston, SC. From there it will ride a train to my Mini dealer in Ohio. It would be really cool if we all met at some Mini event some time so our car's could be reunited!

Well I may be right behind you as my MINI went into production 7/27...I guess that makes mine a week #31. I also live in the bay area and am in the process of looking for a spare wheel/tire to have on hand before "scrat" shows up! PEZ

Production Week 29 is on the ground in the US so maybe that could mean We will be a week behind them one can only hope.. I might get my MINI before Sept at that rate Of course these are only the East coast ones So I am not sure what the lag for the West coast is. Dang for once I am sorry to be in Ca
