Scheduled for production!

Should be here in January.

 

TunaBall -
Welcome to Countryman madness!
Your specs sound great.
Are you on the east or west coast?

 

Thanks! Been reading here for years, just started posting. I'm in Oregon. According to the dealer, looks like mine will be in the first ones arriving in Oregon, with only 2 others in front of me!

 

Congrats TunaBall and welcome to the Big Wait! Your spec sounds great.

 

Excellent news!

 

Sounds like we are all at the 'Pins and Needles' Stage.
Our Red with Black All4 is in the awaiting transport column, built week 44 so X-Mas should be really great this year. Being delivered into Chicago but living in Iowa. I plan on Black rims from Tire Rack or others, factory options are pricey.

Welcome Mike. Looks like there are a number of completed cars now ready for shipment. Mine? Still in the parts bins it seems...

 

Congratulations on making it out of production.
I think the shipping time is going to be the hardest wait.
Your Countryman should look really sharp.

 

My wife and I just returned from vacation. Turns out our Countryman has slipped (again) from week 46 to week 47 production. The GM at our dealership called MINI USA at my urging and was told that there are some parts constraints forcing some orders to get pushed back. Wasn't able to tell me which parts, but it is what it is. One of these days the car will get built. Right?

 

My ALL4 slipped from 45 to 47
I have NAV and Convenience (2)

Looking less likely for 2010 delivery..

But at least I got configure it tonight and save it as wallpaper

 

As they say, misery loves company. Welcome to my world. No worries though, we will get there.

Mine is also a loaded All4 with Nav and virtually everything else except an auto trans.

 

Look on the bright side - the later builds hopefully will be better quality

I was making a bunch of configuration changes at the end and was wondering if that had anything to do with it ....but apparently not.

 

Sorry to hear about your delay. I looked at your order from your post. My car isfinished and waiting to be shipped. I feel like we have a lot of the same options. I have ordered a Crystal Silver ALL4, with

2 piece rail
silver 17 inch wheels
Nav with connected
adaptive Xenon
Cold Weather Package
Auto Climate Control
Auto wipers
Flat load floor
all Season tires

So it would have to be something other than these options causing your delay

 

Out of curiousity, which seats did you order? My order has the Lounge Leather Carbon Black seats. Don't know if there is any rhyme or reason to this...

 

I don't think there is a common thread to our delays but figured I would post my build

ALL4
Yellow with white roof
White tunnel spoke wheels
Light Tobacco cloth / Carbon Black Leather seats
Color Line Dark Tobacco
2 Part Center Rail
Adaptive Xenon
Sport package
Convenience Package 2
Navigation

My convenience package option does not show up in owners lounge but I assume thats normal

 

Same for me. Dealer has confirmed ZC2 on my order but it has not shown up in Owners Lounge.

I'll post my build again to follow the thread:

1199 MINI Cooper S Countryman ALL4
B13 Cosmic Blue Metallic
2GP 17" Alloy Wheels, 5-Star Spoke
ZC2 Convenience Package 2
ZCW Cold Weather Package
ZPP Premium Package
T9E1 Leather Lounge Carbon Black
2P9 Alloy Wheels in Silver
345 Chrome Line Interior
346 Chrome Line Exterior Trim
382 Roof and mirror caps in white
430 Auto-dimming exterior mirrors
473 Center armrest
4AA Anthracite headliner
4BD Interior surface Piano Black
4C2 Color Line Polar Beige
4CU Interior color Carbon Black
4DF Cockpit surface Piano Black
4U4 2-part center rail
4UL Flat load floor
507 Park Distance Control (rear)
7L5 MINI Connected with Navigation
7L7 Adaptive Xenon Headlights
927 All-season tires

 

I have leatherette seats and did not have

Sunroof
Premium package
back upsensors

 

Dang, Midnight Blue - seems so unfair. I wonder what the holdup is.
I'm sorry . . .

 

I think it is navigation. I was told when I ordered mine that nav would likely push it back to a December build. Mine had all the options except nav and was built a week abo with no delays. I know some people have had theirs built with nav but I think that might be the constraining factor.

 

Yay
I Just found out today that my car started production yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!

Dealer had suggested next week but online OL and live person confirmed build start of the 17th so I am now a little ahead of schedule. I need to go sell my A3 quickly now!!!!!

 

Fantastic news spaner!

 

Just ordered my Countryman S ALL4 today....pretty excited other than the dealer was trying to seriously lowball the trade offer (BTW I have a 2008 Clubman S for sale).

Ordered a pretty well loaded ALL4.

True Blue with Black roof and Mirrors
Sport Package with 18 inch Black double Spokes
Convenience Package 2
Cold Weather Package
Premium Package
Adaptive light Xenons
Anthracite headliner
Polar Beige Seats
Carbon Black Color line
Black Checkered console and door trim
Piano Black cockpit surface
Mini Connected with Navigation

Wanted the flat load floor but apparently that may be a one of the parts hold up across the pond. My MA said order without and it can be added easily after the car is on hand. He also told me not to order any acessories as they do not have an "on-hand" date. My dealer still seems to think that we will not get to walk out of the dealer with our Countrymans (?Countrymen) until January 8th even if they are on hand well before. He said MINIUSA made them hold onto 10-15 Clubmans several years ago until the launch date and they had to be stored indoors out of site. Here's hoping that is not the case.

Will await my Order confirmation on Monday and then the daily website checks will begin.

 

FWIW, my dealer in Oregon assured me that would not be the case and I discussed the need to get it in 2010 for tax purposes and he said he was sure everything would be fine for a pre-Christmas delivery.

 

Seems the hold up is the Flat Load Floor..according to a post above. On my convertible order, ZC2 has not shown up in the owners lounge either, along with striped alloy dash, but its on my VIR from the dealer.

 

Sounds plausible. But isn't the flat load floor option virtually the same piece as the one that comes standard?
