'04 MCS on order- couple of questions...

Hi Folks,
just found this site and wish I'd found it earlier! We ordered our '04 MCS back in November, and the mini website finally changed to 'Awaiting Transport'. What is the full telephone number for ask mini? Is it 800 or 888? I tried both but to no avail. Any idea how long our wait will be before we see the car? Our nearest dealer is in Portland, Oregon.
Cheers,
Paul.

Hi Paul -

welcome to NAM and the MINI family. It won't be long now....

The number is 866-ASK-MINI.

Ask Mini is 866.ASK.MINI.

There is tons of Mini tracking info here:

http://www.mini2.com/forum/faq.php?f...q_tracking_usa

The Rasmussen wait is about 9 months, so I would expect your car in July/August.

Check out www.pdxmini.org for local events and drives. We have a 2 day drive to Crater Lake in late July, and a drive in movie meet in (I think) early August.

HOLEY SMOLEY...is 9 MONTHS the standard wait now? From order to pickup, mine took 5 months. If there wasn't a West Coast dock strike, I would have gotten it in 3.

Anyway, Welcome Paul. This site, MINI2 and Motoring File are good sites.

Ask your Motoring Advisor for your VIN.
