Ok, according to ASK MINI, my MCS will be finished on April 24th. How long do you guys think it will take to get here?

East coast or west coast? On the west coast I had a 10/10 build and picked it up from the dealer on 11/21. Your wait time could vary depending if it sits on the dock in England or has to wait at the VPC (vehicle processing center).

Two to four weeks for and East Coast delivery depending on the backup at the VPC in Bayonne. I believe that you got you're car from Sterling right? It will probably be at the dealer within hours after the Owner's Lounge says it's on the truck and enroute...

So tracking has been covered many times on the forum. There is a great post... here is the link

For that point you want to read through that... but you can track the boat. Go to the shipping companies website.... cargo tracking

Then enter your vin... it will give you the name of the boat... then you go to oceanweather to get the call sign for the boat... then you can track the boat. I havent figured out how to track it from the distrabution center to the dealer.... Someone must know!! Read through those posts.. you will find some interesting info!!!
