The MINI gods are messing with me. My MCS has been delayed due to the contrasting top. Okay, that's all well and good. But....
What do I see when I pull out of my driveway? My neighbor about 5 doors down has a new MCS sitting in his driveway. Curse him!! Lol. Okay, happy for him, but I had to chuckle.

 

I had two delays with mine (April 15th Launch Day and the oil filter housing replacement). Car was at my dealership on March 24th and I had to wait until April 17th to take delivery. The wait was hard, but now that my MINI S is in my garage it was WELL worth the pain. LOL.

 

Unless your neighbor ordered one on the same day I wouldn't say the Mini gods are messing with you, hehe . I know your pain, I am awaiting mine on order as well and the wait is grueling. For no apparent reason mine has been waiting to be "assigned" to a boat for over two weeks now. I would agree with Bob though that ultimately it will be worth it.

 

Good to hear neither of you were scared from the wait. I keep telling myself that the delay gives me more time for a down payment

 

Indeed I just keep telling myself it will be worth it as there is also something cool (in my mind at least) about getting a car that was built specifically for me. Guess I drank a bit too much of the "you-ification" kool-aid, hehe.

 

Yea mines been waiting almost 2 weeks for a boat also...sucks I thought it was going soooo smooth then came to a halt quickly.

 

My Mini S is finished after just two weeks since the April 12th order.
This according to the MA
Moonwalker grey solid.
Now awaiting vessel assignment also.
Will be delivered to :
Port Hueneme , a small beach city in Ventura County,
sixty miles north of L.A. CA.
This is cheaper than delivering to LA Harbor.
My home is 50 miles south of Los Angeles.
I hope they don't drive it here

 

For me MOL says it's at the dealer, the hotline says in transit. I'll be a patient person and call Tuesday. :-)

 

Daaanngg. That's quick! I'm interested in seeing the full car in grey.

 

Why not call today? You KNOW you want to.

 

What is the HOTLINE # ?
What info do I need to call?
TKS

 

1-866-ASK-MINI

You need your Production Number, the thing you would have used to sign up for the Owner's Lounge.

Edit: 866, not 800! Oops!

 

I called the automated thing again, but I think I may wait longer before calling. If it were there today I don't have time to get it and if it's not there, I can't make it go faster.
