not helping.. but great to know.

 

Thanks for the info but QA is after the car is assembled which happens after the paint shop. It goes: body shell production (body-in-white), paint shop and finally assembly hall followed by QA. I was at Plant Oxford last week - they are currently producing a car in 24-36 hours so it's odd mine has been in the paint shop for 3 days now. No ship for me, straight to my dealership which is 2 hours from Oxford

 

David, you are absolutely right about the sequence. Most likely it's advanced as it should and the system simply isn't keeping up to date. It's cool mini allows us to track our cars, but it is far from perfect. I just sat at the port for eleven days, including the WW site showing my car "returned to shipper". That whole time I'm wondering what happened. The system shows us a little, but sometimes not near enough. Hope this helps.

Will you hurry up and get your roadsters already!

 

I could swear mine went from paint and then in QC, could have been one source reporting it in one location and another source saying it was somewhere else. I was calling and emailing everyone so I must have mixed the order up. Regardless, from completion it took mine 11 days to get on a ship. That is when time started standing still.

So, my MINI is in production, but the options listed on the "track your MINI" page order details don't include everything we ordered. Should I be worried?

 

From what I've read, no need to worry. It seems pretty typical. Mine never showed more than the model, ext. color, and int. color.

I just logged on and checked my build in the Owners Lounge. Now, after it has been on the ship for about a week, it finally has all the build specs So, it looks like it takes them a while to update. Hope this helps.

Thanks very much for the feedback. I will resume my waiting.

 

Hi everyone, just ordered my Roadster JCW last week.
My configuration, exactly that this video:

I had a Mini Cooper in 2003, after a VW GTI DSG, then a BMW 335i Coupe and now I return to Mini. I think that the experiences that give to me Mini, no GTI no BMW give to me.

I live in Canary Islands (Spain) so 20ºC average monthly temperature is the perfect place to enjoy the Mini Roadster.

I'll post photos.

 

Congrats and welcome! Looking forward to seeing your Roadster when it arrives. That will be a beautiful combination

These threads are all great reads - congrats everyone!

 

Waiting on the delivery of my 2015 BRG / Stripes Roadster.

Any other BRG / Stripes MINIs out there? I have seen only one on this site.
