It seems like forever

Ordered my mini and it shipped back on the 18th of May and I've been checking online for it to say "@ distribution center". How long does it take?! I'm going bonkers!
Anyone know how many distribution centers there are in the US?

It takes a big fork lift to move those boxes of MINIs around, I'm sure it will come soon enough

1 or 2 VDC on east coast & 1 on west coast read about it here:
https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...on-center.html

Time at VDC depends on several things.
- How busy they are with other orders BMW and MINI.
- Some options are installed at VDC.
- If there was damage during shipment then that is repaired and painted if needed at VDC etc.

Transport can take up to a week depending on where your dealer is located.
The dealer may want it for a day or 2 to go over it and install any dealer options etc.

Seams like forever to get it after ordering but time flies when you have your MINI... Those payments just keep coming ...bam bam bam.

You need to update your signature with what you have
