Does anyone know where the VDC is ? My MINI is there and I am quite curious!
I know it came off the Don Juan about 5 days ago, how much longer should I expect to wait?

S.D.

It all depends on your luck. Some MINIs go through in a day, some make themselves right at home and stay three weeks! Mine was there almost two weeks. I am sorry to tell you this, but this will be the most excruciating part of the wait. :smile:

Sorry, After all that I didn't even answer the question. The VDC is in New Jersey. The cars go through customs, get emmissions testing etc done there.

Thanks for the information. I am trying hard to be patient but not doing it well.

Dave, it depends where you live. Since I was living on the West Coast the car came into Hueneme, California and processed through Oxnard, Ca. Than shipped to MINI of Concord. I understand there are a few centers but I am only aware of the NJ site and the Ca site. I'm sure others can tell you where their port of entries are for their cars. In Ca they have to place it on the window sticker.
