Ask Mini says the best information for vehicle tracking, as far as company and arrival in US, is your MA. What have they told you?

It may be on its way already, so don't panic. :-) Let us know what your MA says.
My MA as expected wasn't too helpful, she says the Mini is awaiting transport and will not get here for another 4-5weeks. Seems a little long to me. I won't be suprise if it gets here earlier since she seems to often have outdated info.

Which makes sense... why would they list ALL The cars going over as being unloaded in NY when there are multiple US stops the Toledo makes? UPS doesn't list all their driver's drops for the day as being one shipment.
I hadn't noticed that. Thanks for the heads up.

Can you post this link, I cant find it.

Looks like I am booked on the "Trianon" headed for the west coast. Anyone one else on this ship? Hmm, asterisk means "Cargo is in waitlist status" what does that mean?

Mine has an asterisk too for the Toledo. I wonder if that means the car isn't actually on the ship? The Toledo has sailed so I have no idea if my car is on it or not.

My MINI didn't have an asterisk next to the VIN and is now "loaded on vessel."

Mine does have an asterisk and I guess it was never loaded onto the ship.

What is the booking number for the Trianon which allows you to survey all the VIN's on the ship? Also, is the 'Trianon' a [SIZE=2]Wilh. Wilhelmsen vessel? Can't find my VIN (week 10, completed today, scheduled for release to carrier) on the WW site.

[SIZE=2]

The Trianon is on the WW site, the booking number is GBSOU507207. My vin just showed up this morning although according to ask-mini it just left the plant yesterday. It shows my vin as being received at terminal.

So, anyone with a car headed over test drive one yet? What did you think?

My first test drive will be in MY car... I was going to wait to see the R56 when mine finally came in, but I couldn't do it. Went to the dealer, with my parents (who were visiting that week) on 2/17. Some impulse control.

Sweeet. Thanks to your info on the 'Trianon' vessel, I was able to find my ride 'booked' for a loading slot this morning. For whatever reason, I couldn't locate it via a VIN search, but found it after looking through the inventory of VIN's on the TRIANON. What the hell does 'Trianon' mena anyways? Someone or something famous I presume.

Anyone have better luck with the AIS Live website? I registered for free account but never got the activation email from them. I was trying to get info on the "Trianon".
Thanks.

I'm hoping mine will be out on the next ship in. It is apparently now at the port awaiting transport. Anyone know how to find out what ships are coming in to the port, bound for Charleston?
