obviously the boys at ASK MINI started their weekend celebrations a bit early. An extra day, I can handle. Another week sitting on the dock, not so sure.

The first part is inbound, from zeebrugge (netherlands), to the nab (a bouy) at 0730, and then in to pier 34/35. and then at the bottom departing 1830. We should meet up for a game of shuffle board. The strange thing that there is only 82 MINI's listed. Maybe some will show up before she leaves

 

Ex,
Where you getting the # of mini's aboard from?

 

of the 82 listed, my vin does not show. However, ASK MINI said I am on-board. Perhaps that list is incomplete.

You can find that list by putting in the routing number (GBSOU532064) and the VINS appear.

 

it seems like a really low number,some have reported over 500 cars on their bill. watch this space i guess

 

Thanks. Wow, thats amazing it lists all like that.

We've taken impatience to new heights !!! Where is my mini!!!! ;-)

 

it gets worse. with the radar link you can watch it leave and sail down the solent, in 10 min updates.that should be 2pm est

 

I did not think I would make it on the Integrity, but I did. My car left Oxford yesterday and still managed to make it on board. I am on the first stop in NY so may get lucky and have the car by the end of the month.

 

up to 112 cars now

 

Loaded on the ship woohoo

 

Much to my surprise, I made the INTEGRITY and am on my way to Charleston! DoubleDuece rolled out of quality control on 6/7 and managed to make the boat. Clearly the car has major quickness.
Anyone have any idea how long it takes from Charleston to Spartansburg to Atlanta? I will be out of town the first two weeks of July. There is a good chance my car may be ready in Atlanta, but I won't be there to pick it up.

 

Good job doubledeuce and welcome aboard

 

Got the first hit on the INTEGRITY. Have updated the link to show the correct id

 

New York, New York!!

 

I mis-read the tracking information My baby is coming in to Baltimore MD 6/20 I am so excited

 

I wasn't aware of a vpc in MD. I live in PA but "smudge" is going to NY on the 18th. I have a feeling that is where yours is going cheeky

 

How many VDC's does MINI have in the US?
Since my boat is docking in Port Hueneme, CA I assume she will end up in the Oxnard VDC?

 

I am on the Integrity as well....Ny bound. Can't wait

 

Oh, Ok. Well New York is even better!!

 

NY bound myself. Kind of interesting, I called 866-ASK-MINI and spoke with a rep who told me today that my car was still sitting at the port and will not be shipped for about two more weeks, but my VIN indicates otherwise as it says it is on the Integrity and shipped out June 9.

Another interesting thing is if you look at the list of VIN's it shows that some cars got loaded on 6/11, but there were no other scheduled stops that I could see.

I am starting to wonder where my car really is.

 

That's interesting. I was wondering how this might work. There is probably a bar code or RFID tag on each car that is scanned when it's loaded on the ship. Could it be that sometimes cars are loaded without the scan and then someone on the ship scans those cars after the ship departs?

 

The tracking page on the Owner's Lounge finally caught up with the fact that DoubleDuece is loaded on the INTEGRITY. South Carolina here we come!!

If you are the least bit skittish about the boat trip over, stay away from the "Are MINI's Shipped in a Box" thread. There are pictures in the thread that no owner with a car in transit should see.

 

as sick as this sounds... doubleduece... can you link that thread? i can't seem to find it? i wanna see it

 

The INTEGRITY arrived safely in NY,NY yesterday 06/17/07. Hopefully all our baby's did as well. Now just waiting for that phone call from my MA

 

Excellent. Hope that call comes soon for all of us.
