R56 How long did you wait for your MINI on order
How long did you wait for your MINI on order
Ok, lots of folks have ordered 2007 minis, how many days did it take from the day you ordered it to the day you picked it up? Just curious, my wife ordered her MCS about 2 weeks ago, curious what the 'average' is to the west coast (SoCal)
Mine took about 5 weeks. I was quoted 6-8 weeks.

Big question to ask you MA - when is MY production number going in ??? I ordered mine on 8/31 - car was being built on 9/2 and finished on 9/8 - took until 9/18 for it to get to the dock and waits its turn to get on a ship - it just passed through the Panama Canal today https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...d.php?t=113907
It should arrive in LA on 10/08 and then maybe a week up to the bay area, for you in LA it would be much faster.... so, from 8-31 to 10/08 is about 5 weeks and change - add a few days to your dealer and your set.. Depending on your dealer and what production slot you get - that's the trick from what I have learned... where did he put you in line????

I ordered mine on 9/20 and it's already built (9/30) and waiting for transport. Was anybody elses's built this quickly? Once it's built, how long does it take to load, ship and arrive at the dealership?
I'm close to the New York port (about 3 hours by car/truck).

Ordered on 7/21, completed production on 8/5, enroute to the west coast 8/9 and picked up 9/20. I've had it for less than two weeks and already have washed it 4 times, which is probably the same number of times I've washed my 03 Jetta
I ordered mine on Feb 3rd, recieved on May 19th = about 15 weeks
...I had it for 2 weeks and then the dealer had it for almost 4 weeks, got it back for a day, then back to the dealer for another week, then got it back for 4 weeks, then dealer got it for another day, then I got it back for 4 weeks, then dealer got it back for a day, I have had it for about 5 weeks, and now the dealer gets it back on Tuesday........
I think I'm paying for us to share the MINI

It really took six weeks to get it after it left England? Yikes. Did it come to a west coast port or east coast port?
By the way, I got lucky on the timing. My car finished on the 5th, and wouldn't have been on the ship that it was on if that ship wasn't delayed 2 days. Otherwise, it would have waited at the port for almost 2 weeks. My MA told me mid-Sept to early Oct, so I cannot complain.
One more thing: Cool car you've got on order!
