hey guys..any other folks out there who where on the don juan..that supposidly docked and dropped off some mini's in Halifax today, just looking for some compatriots to see what kinda deliver times you have on yours???..mine is bound for Vancouver :???: ...way the heck on the other side of the country!

 

Still holding up there Bill?? What did Marcel give you for an est. delivery date? can't remember how long it took mine to get into Van from the Halifax port. But then it goes through a series of events after that. I'd probably guess another 2 weeks or so. I think it was almost a week from the port. And then, by the time it's ready after that, it's about another week. Hang in there bud. How's the snow over there?
Cheers,

 

Hang in there billyg. I'm in the same boat :smile: as my MINI shared the ride across the pond with your MINI. It looks like you're the only one here on MCO that was on the Don Juan. Do you think the ship made a special drop-off in Halifax JUST for you?? Funny to think of this big ship docking in Halifax just to drop off one teeny MINI.

 

Hey Mark,
Well the snow if very little...non to speak of...and the wait is getting worse...
well if it can only be a couple weeks from drop in halifax, then i should see it the week of the 16th Dec.....i hope..i would love an early Xmas present.

Hows things going with your man?? :smile:

 

Don't want to seem like the Grinch but my MCS took > 4 weeks to get from Halifax to Toronto. i did offer to go down and get it but dealer wasn't too impressed.

 

well i have heard of many EARLY problems with deliver of the cars...i am thinking yours was delivered sometime in the summer? :smile:

Um...................Bill? Buddy? Couldn't help but notice something in your last post there. The last comment you made was to ask how it's going with my man. I'm guessing you meant to say "How's it going with YOU, man?" (???) At least I hope so. And just to clarify to everyone listening, no............I am NOT gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that (Seinfeld reference there). I've been happy coupled to my girl now for sometime. Thought I'd better say something before rumours spread.
Anywho, thing are great. Not even a slight hint of snow in the valley yet. Not even on the slopes. Marcel say anything about a pre-Christmas delivery of your MCS? Sell the Nissan?
Take care dude. You're almost there.
Cheers,

No harm done man. Water off a duck's back. That woulda sucked if some male MINI owner on this forum started coming onto me though. I realize there may be a common interest (MINI's) but I don't play on that team. Just one little letter too many went from asking how I'm doing, to making me gay. Don't worry about it Bill. All is good.
Cheers,

 

ahhhh.......this don juan canuck is just about toast....6 more days..and the little
coopstr will be mine.....AHHHH..what a relief

 

home...and in one peace...what a trip....nasty old man winter ....

 

You the man cool guy.
Although it doesn't appeat that old Man Winter is done yet. This'll be a good test for our MINI's.
You passed the forst test Bill. Now comes the rest of Winter.
Cheers bud,

 

yep..your right there Mark,
but it was a good first test of the car..and Me in it....*grin*
come on BRING on the snow..."oh i know i will regret that one "

 

Well, you got out of Vancouver just in time. They're in for another big dumping of snow tonight. Looks like they're predicting a storm of the size a few years back in '96 that shut down all highways and reaked havoc everywhere. So, it's coming. But don't cheer it on too hard there, eh. It just might happen. I can do without it. There's enough for skiing and snowmobiling now. Don't really need it on the roads.
But good thing you didn't wait any longer to get your car.

 

Ya no kidding.....i might ha ve had to put it on santa's sleigh to get it home .

 

There's enough stray cats around Vancouver. Collect a bunch and harness 'em up.

 

ya..finally a good use for a cat...hmmm.
"eh...its a joke to all you cat lovers out there"

 

>>ya..finally a good use for a cat...hmmm.
>>"eh...its a joke to all you cat lovers out there"



But I wonder. Just how many cats would it take to pull a MINI?

 

*grin*.....***** power....a new measure of momentum
