Hey there any other Week 42 soon to be owners out there?
If you are out there speak up.
I would like to see who KPMINI will be with on his jounery home.

My projected completed date is the 15th, so I could very well be sailing with you.

 

My projected completion date is the 18th. Hello!

 

I believe ours will be next week also.

 

Mine is scheduled for completion on Oct 20th!

I called the ASK-MINI number today and was told it would take a month to reach the east coast once the MINI was built.

Wish they could fly it over!

 

Are there any others out there in this production week?
Let get on here so we know who everyone is, waiting on their new addition.

Joining you in Week 42!

Just called MINI - they said Chequers is at the port awaiting shipment. I'm so excited I can hardly stand it! I live in Texas - he'll either arrive in New Jersey or California (I'd think Jersey, but who the heck knows?)

WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Just got word that KPMINI is waiting to be released to the cargo carrier. Finished Production today. Now the real waiting begins. Good thing I was (and at heart still am) a Sailor. Made the trip from near the English Island to Virgina more then once.
I can not wiat to start motoring. My wife is now getting excited also.
I hope to keep busy, which is hard to do.
Come on everyone in this production week lets here from you. It is getting even closer now.

My car will be on the ELEKTRA. Can anyone else verify what their car will be on? Just to be sure...

 

I'll be on there with you.

 

Just confirmed mine is going to be on the PATRIOT. It departs today 10/20, anyone else with me?

 

Well I have been told that KPMINI is on the docks as of 18 October, I do not know what ship he is going on or if he has left yet. I did go to the WW site and that did not show anything.
I am hoping that he caught a ride with one of your ships as they told me there were 35 other Minis waiting as well.
Just can not wait to Motor with my co-pilot (My 3 year old son).
Already planning our first road trip together.
Glad to hear that some of your waits are coming to a close.
Happy Motoring.

Well it turns out I will not be sailing as of yet. I thought it would be on the PATRIOT but upon furthur investigating, it was never loaded on that ship. My MA tells me it will be on the next available ship. I have no idea which one it might be at this point.

 

Is it just me, or is the ELEKTRA hauling ***?!

Edit: Doh!! Re-tracked my VIN and found out they bumped me back to the PATRIOT, as well. Estimated arrival date in New York is October 29th. Oh well. Hi Nejhad.

 

When I ordered my MINI, thw W&W site showed me on the Patriot, and then got bumped but in reality I was on a K-Line ship... Hang in there - it will come soon!

FYI - I set up a chat room for MINI order tracking over at MotoringFun.com. Should be fun chatting with other MINIacs waiting for their MINIs to be delivered!

We were told by ASK MINI that our car was at the port Oct. 17th. They claimed they do not have any follow up information. Still not showing up on the W&W site. Is there another way to find out what ship you are on? We are in St. Louis so I assume it will be coming in on the East Coast.

 

Hey tekron! Mine is still waiting to be loaded onto some ship. I do not belive it will be the PATRIOT at this point but who knows!

 

Hey there. I am from week 41 though my mini sat at the docks for over a week. Two ships left port this afternoon. WW line "AIDA" and NYK ship "AQUARIUS". I know they use WW and I believe I have seen NYK in other forums. Here is a map of the harbor: http://www.southamptonvts.co.uk/files/pos.pdf
This is the schedule for the harbor: http://www.southamptonvts.co.uk/com/smovements.htm click on Ship Along Side or Vessel Sailed.
Live Web cam of harbor. (not where the minis are loaded): http://www.southamptonvts.co.uk/webcams.htm
The OL finally told me I was En Route. Perhaps some of you made it as well.
I can finally stop checking the OL for a while.

 

My MINI is on there, sorry to hear yours didnt make it on. where did you buy yours at

 

New Country MINI in Hartford, CT.

Good news! My Coop was loaded on AIDA yesterday! It's scheduled to arrive in NYC on 10/30!

Anyone else on that ship?

 

Congrats! Should be soon now!

 

my tini is also on the patriot. she's a royal grey MCS, silver hood+bonnet stripes.

my MA (from mini of manhattan) tells me that I can pick her up as soon as 3 days after arrival at the port... is the VDC in jersey *that* quick? or did the MA mean 2-3 days after clearing VDC?

 

Just got word that KPMINI shipped yesterday (23 October). I do not know if this is a good thing to know, or if this will drive me even more crazy.
I can not wait. Still looking at the end of November as a delivery date.

Finally we are on our way. Does not show up on the WW site so I assume it is on another carrier. Expecting it to get to the dealer around 14 November.

 

The PATRIOT is making great time. :D (http://www.sailwx.info/shiptrack/shi...html?call=WQVY)

tekron, hawg, our waits are almost over. is anyone else also on the patriot?

also, any other Mini of Manhattan motorers?
