Hey, Just spoke to our MA and found out that our Mini is starting production tomorrow! It is estimated to finish production on the 21st!!!! We actually have a VIN now!!!! :) :lol: :thumbsup: :nod: :grin:

*waves from week 36*

The fun starts here guys! You're almost there!! :)

Just called ask mini (poor guys!!) and they said my production was started yesterday and should finish on the 21st!!

Has anyone else had their car come in on a Vessel other than WW? Seems like a lot of west coast mini's come on a different line.. I hope mine comes on a WW so I can track it!!

Thanks Lemonens, I am excited, this waiting while a bit nerve racking is also great knowing you have something so great to look forward to!!

Week 38 , we are moving along!

We ordered on 9-1 and I was told by ROBOT on Ask-Mini went into production
on 9-12 scheduled to complete on 9-14.

Others I have talked at Ask-MIni all say it is being built, but the completion dates goes from 9-14 thru 9-20, depending on who I speak with.

I was told that once it is built it should be 20 days from leaving factory to my driveway.

Dealer told us when we ordered figure 8 weeks, but they have been getting them in about 6 weeks.

We are ready to roll

lemonems how do you put the grill badges on you post? I would like to do the same but don't know how.

Thanks in advance

There is a sticky in the MINI Talk forum: badges. :nod:

If you need help actually adding them to your signature shoot me a P.M.

Thanks
