All Aboard AIDA? Cruising Feb 4, 2008

Anyone else cruising on the AIDA, Voyage ED804-ADA?

My Clubman is making record time...ordered Jan 15th, just finished its build on Feb 1 and is ready to set sail today!!! I'm in Arizona, so I won't be expecting it until early/mid March...but am still very excited!

I wonder how MINI is picking up these orders. I ordered on 12/19 and mine hasn't even gone in to production yet. My MA says it is not scheduled until mid February.

Order Queuing

I was told my by MA that there are slots for each month and some dealers have openings and some do not. One dealer in the Bay Area had an opening but was charging $2500 premium over MSRP. Mine, apparently, had an opening and I slipped in.

Attached is the AIDA sitting at the Southampton port ready to get on its trek West. Anyone else onboard?

Hi Jeremy,
I bet if you post this on the 1st Gear section you will get more responses. It seems to be where the threads are for the boats.
A lot of us watched the Isolde go through the Panama Canal on Saturday and two of our great carmates filmed it for us so now we have a video (with music) of our cars going through. It was a wonderful day! Isolde arrives in California on Sunday.
