A month and a half from booking to being received at the terminal seems unusual. My own order was booked March 15, the same day it started production, received at the terminal March 20, the day following completion, and loaded on March 23, just 8 days from booking to loading. Was there some unusual thing about your build process? Did they have to start over from scratch for some reason?

 

MINE JUST CHANGED TO LOADED ON VESSEL!!!!!!! at 7:31 UK time. whooohoooo!!!

 

Mine doesn't even say it was received at the port. It still says, "No tracking information is available for the Cargo ID you entered." Feels like it is lost in limbo. I've double checked the VIN number and it is correct. I'm putting it to the "Cargo ID" box under "Auto cargo." Where is my MINI?

 

You're doing all the things that I've done, Robin. I don't think you're putting anything in the wrong place. It took a couple days before my car showed up as booked and received. They very well might not update until you get closer to the ship arriving. I bet your car is just fine and waiting for its ship to come in.

 

I'm now loaded on the vessel as well at 20:43 in the UK. Go Integrity!

 

alright guys im a pretty competetive person so why does week ten have 415 posts? their cars were only built 3 weeks before ours. lets get on this! we got three weeks for almost 400 hundred posts. come on week 13

 

Few people seem to be admitting they are in week 13. Either that, or not many people ordered when we did.

 

well then its time for them to man up. week 13 is something to be proud of. but i agree we do seem to be a small group. all the better for us.

 

I'm also showing just "recieved" and "booked" for the integrity -- suppose i'll be waiting the long wait for the next ship and keeping my fingers crossed for that one!

 

I think we'll surpass week 10 pretty easily, even with our small numbers. Once we all update every move our car over the next month or so and announce the arrival and post photos, we should get over 400. How many of us are there?

 

OK, I need a little help here figuring out how to track my R56 MCS that went from "awaiting transport" to "en route" today, according to miniusa.com.

Now, in the past I could track my BMW's shipment via the shipping company's website [something like "wellanius willhemson"] by entering my VIN as a shipping #. How do you guys know which boat yours is on?

 

Go to: http://schedule.2wglobal.com/AppTracking/

Click on the "Auto cargo" option and put in your VIN.
When did it finish production? How long has it been "awaiting transport"?

 

Its official. Booked on the Maersk Wave. any update on yours robin?

 

No tracking information is available for the Cargo ID you entered

 

im sure it will get sorted out

 

Thanks! My sparkling silver MCS with red lounge leather is on the Madame Butterfly. Loaded March 27th.

This is going to be a long wait, isn't it.

 

The Integrity has reported it's position a couple of times today. It's not too far from England, but getting closer to us!

 

hey guys ... doing my part to get the post count up! as of today (4/1), my MINI is in the body shop according to automated ASK-MINI! i'm hopeful to make it onto one of the boats you all are on! if not, certainly on the next one.

daveco.

 

Anyone else just miss getting loaded on the Integrity like me? Just seeing who else i'll be waiting it out with, hopefully for the Freedom in a few days!

 

I'm in the same boat (pun intended) as you are MichelleN. It looks like our MINIs will be shipmates and perhaps even truckmates on the way to Princeton!

 

Hey guys -

This is my first post on NAM although I have been reading tons and tons on here for about 2 months now. I ordered on the 24th and, according to ASK MINI, my CR/B MCS is currently in the body shop and scheduled to complete production on April 3rd. Am I in week 13? I'm not so sure but noticed how much this thread has grown and figured I could become part of it and help beat Week 10 's thread

 

Congrats on our CR/B. The whole week thing is a bit confusing, but I think you're in week 14. I think our cars are finished - some are at the port and others already on ships. You're welcome to hang out here as far as I'm concerned. Tell us your spec.

 

Hey -

Thanks for the reply

I am probably in week 14, but I think I will hang out here for a bit and hear from you guys about the progress of your babies as they make it across the pond. Here's my spec:

MCS - CR/B w/ bonnet stripes
Premium & Sport Packages
LSD
HiFi Upgrade
Piano Black dash
Chrome Line Interior

 

Finally, it got booked on the MAERSK WAVE. Voyage ED713-MWA to PORT HUENEME, CA. Surf's up, Dude!

I notice that the ships to California get names like WAVE, ISOLDE, TRISTAN, and TURANDOT. It is either surf or tragedy. The East Coast gets names like FREEDOM, PATRIOT, LIBERTY, COURAGE, and INTEGRITY. Like Dude, what's up with that? OK, so they have a MEDEA and TOLEDO, stuck in there as well, but you get the idea.

Oh, we also get CARMEN, and ELECTRA.

 

Go Robin! I noticed the ship names as well. The west coast names are much better with opera references and serious characters. I believe Otello is tucked in there as well. Of all the east coast names, I think Integrity is the best and I'm glad to be on it.
