I am waiting for mine to come to Rasmussen as well. Hoping to pick mine up on the 11th or 12th.

 

Heheh they are prolly enjoy a special dinner with the Captain

 

To "Seal6"

Wait a sec... YOU GOT A Hybrid?! or am I just spilling an unknown substance out my *** here?

Cuz there seems to be a new badge on your posts. Is that "Hydro" for "Hydrogyn"?

Hats off to ya! Nice one if so!

 

unfortunately, KSka, Hydro is actually a car detailing product that is available through detailers paradise:

Still cool, just a little less exciting

 

Hahaha nice catch there Lttletimmy

Yes Hydro is a detailing wax spray for after you wash your car.
Spray on and dry the car. Instant shine and protection.
You might check out the Detailing section for more and ask for Heather! She is our favorite DP rep/expert.

So back on the subject...anyone know if our cars are unpacked yet?

 

The WW site still shows the departure date as today so they better get started soon. I wonder how long it takes to unload 300 cars. I suppose if the MADAME BUTTERFLY shows up as leaving Port Hueneme on the aislive site, then we can assume the WW is just behind.

 

Congrats to all of you who made it aboard the MB! I'm glad to hear that you've safely hit land!

I found out from my MA that I was the oldest car sitting on the docks before I made it aboard the Manon last Monday. So it looks like I just missed the MB!

Oh well. I'm glad to finally be steaming West!

Happy Motoring All!

 

They should be able to unload them in time. They loaded up about 300 on the Isolde today before it set sail.

 

All the cars were discharged simultaneously! That's amazing!

I guess they just wait until they're all off and do a mass update. Let's see how the VDC does now.

 

Yeah that was my thought too...sometime by the 2nd week of July. You are from Eugene too right R56mini?
If so we will have to go motoring around town together...and see about getting the rest of the MINI community around town to join in!

 

I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that mine won't have any problems that might delay it; I need to pick it up by Saturday or else it will have to sit at the dealer for a month while I'm out of town!

 

Here's to hoping for this coming Saturday for you !

 

"Littletimmy"

I think you and I have met. You and Victoria were chatting about the Lazer blue of your two cars. Then you met a guy sitting at her desk with the same name as your friend..

HOW YA DOIN!?

I'm so glad you guys have kept up on tracking the cars- my weeks leading up to the pick up of my car have been and are crazy! So I've not had time to join in the search of the web.

So I just want to say thanks and I'm impressed with your skills at navigating the different sites in order to find out where the cars are.

Nice one!

 

I'll join in once mine arrives, I should be about three weeks behind this group.

 

I am in Vancouver, WA.

 

That's me! Small world/community, isn't it? Glad to see everyone's getting together here!

 

DOH Well an excuse to come up I suppose.

 

Sounds like a plan!

 

Hi all.

You might find this interesting, if you've not seen the site already.

It's basically a tour of the VDC down here.

Enjoy!

I got excited to see the MINIs in the background and also how they prep the cars for transport etc..

Cool!

 

Well and then there's the crushed one.. Oops! sorry about that- I'm sure our cars are fine!

 

Well it's the 3d...I assume MB is already outta there.
Which (in theory) would mean our MINIs are off the boat and off to the VDC. Anyone live near the VDC want to do a quick recon for us

 

How would he/she tell 'our' MINIs from any others? It's OK, we understand, you'll be just fine after taking delivery on your MINI.

 

Heheh oh yeah...good point Mikeo.
A crazy educated guess maybe?

 

For sure.

 

One would have go over there with a list of VINs. Probably get arrested
