Great comparison and how neat the Honda was there and you were able to get pictures - Thanks!!!:smile: :smile:

Chow!

Donna

 

Donna or MPLSTAG,

When I tracked Louie on the shipping line, I only had to put the last 7 digits of the VIN# in. But I read on MINI2 that now you must put the entire VIN# in. Is that true? I want Sunnie SO bad I can hardly stand it Especially after driving the Cabrio yesterday Any info would be GREATLY appreciated:smile: In the meantime I'm heading for the Japanese Festival-I did the Greek Festival yesterday Got to do something to keep my mind off this silly little MINI
Happy holidays

Lois

 

I believe that is true that youy need to enter the whole VIN#, at least that is what I did.

 

Thanks Your MINI has sailed Next ship out is 9/7. Perhaps Sunnie will catch that one

Lois

 

OMG, it is done and has shipping as of today! Ahhhhh!!! I still have to sell my old one!!!

I thought that the shipment took a lot longer than it 2 days after build completion!!!

 

Congrats Your MINI is on the way:smile:

Isn't it tomorrow in the UK. So maybe Sunnie is finished & heading for the docks I wish

Lois

 

hey, congrats to everyone on their progress! Things seem to be coming along nicely!

I will hopefully be able to go through and update the chart tomorrow. Lots of reading for school, but after that, I should have some time to spare on MCO...oops...NAM.

Patrick

 

:smile: For your list, OXNARD / MCS / PD# 7487 / Scheduled / 9-13 / Completion

 

Our Darby was born Aug 5, 2004, in the UK. And it's a girl!

According to OL, it's waiting for transport. I hope it's on the Aug 7 ship y'all be talking about.

 

Hey apple - Well if you do update your grid you can mark me DELIVERY 9-15 to New York aboard the Madame Butterfly!

Beyond psyched - Drew

 

Way to go Drew

I need to find another festival to go to today Sunnie is due to be completed today but no news on automated line, OL, or WW shipping I guess if she misses the Madame Butterfly tomorrow, she'll hitch a ride on the Patriot on Saturday

Waiting very impatiently in St Louis
Lois

 

Our MC (Monty) is "En Route". The OL tracking page has never updated much of our order details, but we know that it was built on 8/26 and shipped on 9/3. We now are seeing a delivery date of 9/11. I don't know if that is NY or Charleston. I don't have any idea what ship it is on. It is not a WW ship because they have no ships docking at either port on that day and the VIN is not showing up in their tracking service. I think that it must be to NY since the transit time is about 8 days. It will be going from there to Classic Mini. I see that most people are expecting the WW stork to be delivering their babies. Has anyone had any luck tracking the alternate delivery service?

 

Apparently BMW/MINI has started using another shipping line-K LINE. They do not have auto tracking like WW does. I went on their website & it is very user UNfriendly. I also just read a thread on the OL forums about a person who's MINI was shipped on K LINE-it was suppose to go to a dealer in Chicago & it ended up in California I unfortunately have not found my MINI yet on WW. Maybe they are shipping all Cabrios to California because they think that's the only place with top down weather

Lois

 

What was that URL for K-line? I'll check it out and maybe I can get more information from my MA. Thanks.

 

Yes, I am happy as S**t!!!!!!!! My Mini left Southampton yesterday 9/5/04. Due to arrive New York on 9/13/04. (vessel- Jingu Maru ).:smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile:

 

well, I am alitle distraught. My MA told both myself and my fiancee 3 seperate occassions that electric blue dash was unavailable. Now I can configure an 05 and it has electric blue dash as an option.

 

Hallelujah Sunnie is born & waitin' on the docks to board the Patriot on Saturday Maybe now I can sleep & stop getting up at night to check on her. Ha Ha Those of you who have had a MINI finished recently or in the next day or 2 may want to check the Patriot. It looks like a whole bunch of MINIs are going to be on board. The booking # is GBSOU255383 & from there you can look for your VIN#.

so after much feedback and market research, it has been determined that the traveling wilbury is just not a cool name for a car...so greenbean it is. seeing as she sails tomorrow and i needed something mini-esque to do, i thought i would put up a mock up of the car via the new configurator. i had to graft together two images as i am having only the front end of the aero kit installed (i dont care much for what it does to the sides and back) so you'll have to pardon my hack comp job on the photo! ; ) so my fellow miniacs... here she (almost) is!

Ms greenbean is a beauty-she's going to have a closely related sister in St Louis

Lois

 

thanks lois - can't wait to see your droptop version! ; )

 

Love your picture - far more talented than anything that I could do! As for the name - you could shorten up greenbean to GB, or GeeBee, or JeeBee, or... Clearly, I need to get a life! Hopefully, Frieda will be leaving the VDC today or tomorrow, and within another ten days I'll get back to sleeping at night! - -

 

thanks mountaingal!

Greetings fellow motorers...

Yikes, I'm beginning to sound like the greeter on ASK MINI......

When you log on to the MINI USA web site, there is a BLUE MINI that appears on the screen.....

Which blue is it?

Cool Blue?

or,

Hyper Blue?

Thanks.

 

Cool Blue-You're talking about the one doing the little jig & you only see it's back end-right?

Lois

 

Im still in production. Im guessing that it will be completed sometime towards the end of this week. 10 days in production will put it at saturday. Maybe I will hope a ride on WW next week!
