I place my order couple weeks ago. As I checked the status online, it says awaiting for transportation...... it's been in the same status for a week already. anyone knows how long will it take to get my lil mini on board and start heading to NJ port?

I really wanna get my mini by the end of Jan.

Hi Ed, The waiting is the worst isn't it. My MINI will arrive at the dealer any day now and it is killing me.

If you go to wlna.com and click on cargo tracking then click on auto and type in your complete VIN number where it asks for the cargo id #, it will tell you if your MINI is booked an a ship yet. It will also tell you, if it is booked, what ship it is on and the itinerary of that ship. Hope this helps.

Cheers,

JD

Wow, you've made more progress than you might think.

Do you have your VIN # or Production #? Have you called 1-866-ASK-MINI to get your current status?

If you spec-ed your MINI a couple of weeks ago, and it's now been built and waiting for Transportation Congrats....I ordered on 11/22 and hope that it will be built very soon with delivery in late Feb if everything falls into place.

You've made faster progress than I have.

Depending on when it comes off the line and the transportation ship comes in, it could sit on the dock a few weeks. Hang in there it’s coming.
