They must've had a good week in Oxford. My Build Date has been 10.18 since I ordered on 9.16. I logged in (obsessively) to the Owner's Lounge this AM and was delighted to see that my MINI was born in the last coupla' days and was awaiting transport.

I've seen some "delayed" stories, so I thought I'd add a "pleasantly surprised" contrast. Obviously, I'm stoked.

I don't want to give you false hopes, but I've been really amazed at the tales of delay that I read here. Maybe you'll be as lucky as I was:

    My time line:

    Ordered 6/30
    Production number issued: 7/10
    Built: 8/7
    Loaded on boat: 8/9
    Arrived on US port: 8/23
    At dealer: 8/26
    Delivered: 9/7

    Total time: 8 weeks. (Extra week due to us being out of town on vacation).

    Not bad at all.
