Well I just dial ASK MINI as well, and I'm on the docks, but not more info was available. Called my MA to find he's been in a boating accident!

Left a msg with another MA and hopefully will get a call shortly.

There you go... good news.. So much for the W&W tracking... but it does have a happy ending...

question for mikem53

hey mikem53, I assume you ordered your from Hendrick?
I did too. Steve is my MA and said my MCS should be here by the end of the week? which really confused me becuase I was tracking the W&W website that showed my VIN# to be on the Mignon, then all of sudden it wasn't?? The Mignon hasn't even hit Charleston yet....

Congrats... Maybe I'll see you there.

WHOA wait a sec - that means if mine left on the 18th then it's in country?!?!? Or did you get lucky and catch a hydrofoil?

I have to call my dealer tomorrow!!!

My MA advised my on friday last week that the Maersk Teal will arrive tomorrow (7th of July) in South Carolina. The boat is apparently early.

heh, the website says my status just changed to At Distribution Center. YAY!

Just for giggles I called the 866-ASK-MINI number to confirm and see what they say. Screwy automated system says my car just arrived at the dock and is awaiting transport

Bzzzzt. WRONG
