Just go to the factory and watch it being made. I'd kill to be able to do that!

Been there, done that, takes about 4 hours to assembly a mini, and one comes off the assembly line ever 68 seconds, 20 hours a day!

22 hours a day at present

I did the the tour on the 14th, and production requirements have meant they now operate 22 hours with only 2 hours maintenance for the robots.

The tour was awesome

To answer the original question though - no there is not a site you can track the car on. I phoned MINI UK every week for an update as my dealer was HORRIFIC with communication!
