I was wondering how some of you pinpointed arrival times....I have not been able to get any straight answers anywhere! Also I was wondering if any one knew if the website for MiniUsa is updated....it says my car is awaiting transport but the rep I talked to told me that it had been sent out earlier this week. I am just too paranoid that something will go wrong here!

The Mini sight does not update very quickly, they said I was still awaiting for my ship when it had been loaded and sailed already. If you have your VIN make sure to check the shipping sight to see if your on your boat yet. I also noticed that once my car was on the ship when the Mini sight updated the date switched from biuld time to arrival time. Their site says arrival 7/27, the car just got off the boat in Charleston yesterday. Me dealer says it usualy takes a week to reach them fromt he port which would be 7/18. So I'm expecting to have it somewhere in between those dates. Hope this helps. :smile:

For me, it seems like the site has been updating on time... For example, the same day my mini rep told me my car was loaded on a ship, the site switched to "En Route". WHen it got to the Dist. Center, it switched to the next stage right on time! I haven't had any complaints.

L.Mini, look on this site in the Mini Talk forum for a thread called "Post your production times here". A post by "the blue potato" gives the site.

Here ya go jmarsz!
Go here: http://www.wlna.com/

Click on Global Web Site at top right (or just go here: http://www.2wglobal.com/Global/Root.jsp) <---- although I don't think this link is working....

Click on cargo tracking on far left.

Click on "Auto" - then enter the last 7 digits of your VIN and hit enter.

From there you will see when the boat will arrive with your car on the east coast.

I got this from

The Global web site works, but you have to remove that last &quot" from the address. Try this:
