Auto Geeks carry RAGGTOP and 303 products. I went with 303 as I didn't want to use an aerosol product, both the fabric guard and protector from 303 are pump spray. They are both good companies, it's just that I preferred #303.

 

I can vouch for Prima products. I've been using them for about a year now. One of the things I really like is that most of their products finish with a matte sheen, very much like the factory does. You also don't have to use much of their products...a little goes a long way.

Glad to help. I've ordered them from Coopersport.com, not sure if they are the best deal. Might try an internet search for distributors.

Does Auto Geeks carry Prima products? I have a detailing gift certificate from the group that has been detailing my Bimmer for the past 6 years ... I am going to ask them about rag tops, the products they use, and the experience they have...
I will call the auto geeks and buy some products.... Maybe I will have the detailing done with my products...

 

If you order direct from Prima Car Care they offer flat-rate $6.99 shipping, and they get it out lightning quick. I've had shipments arrive two days after placing the order.

 

Latest report from my MA: looks like my roadster is finished, but has not been checked in at the port yet...
Want it in March.... This will be close !

 

I'm waiting transport but not sure where at in process. I am hoping to be on the Tiger on the 12th. If not the next ship to CA is the 26th.

ChefTyGuy and others. I am rather excited at this moment, as my Raggi is now ON BOARD the Tirrannas and will be heading for Baltimore on March 11, 2013. I just checked the Track on the WW Lines a few minutes ago, expecting the No Records response that I have been receiving and there and behold, information on my Raggi to leave Southampton on March 11 and to arrive in Baltimore on March 20th. Am I high? YES, this is like being the expectant father and finding out that you have a son, or daughter. So, it looks like a last week in March delivery is more than likely. ChefTyGuy I'm hoping that you are on board for or celebration with Black Caviar from the north of the Caspian Sea, along with a bit of Stolychninya Vodka, ok maybe Dom Periyon bottled in 56, that James Bond will drinik. This is great!!!!

 

Bill, just checked, still no records found =[ hopefully there is still time to get Marron on board with Raggi.

Tiranna does not ship to Brunswick. My next bets are INTEGRITY which leaves Southampton tomorrow and the BOHEME which leaves on the 11th. If all else fails then the COURAGE will bring my boy home leaving the UK on the 13th. So every other day ill be having an anxiety attack. **fingers crossed**

 

Guess that I misspoke when I said that Raggi was on the ship, he was, or has been booked for his ticket to travel on the Tiranna on Monday, March 11th. I'll recheck the Tirranna, I do know that it winds up in Australia.

The Tirranna leaves Southampton on 3-11, then arrives in Baltimore on 3-20, arrives in Savannah Georgia on 3-23, then goes on to New Zealand and Australia. I don't know where this New Brunswick POA is located, maybe that's Savannah. Really like your signature car. Who did it, as I am going to have to have a new one done. Mine will have the top up though. I live in Iowa where we only have seven months of open top weather, usually.

 

Savannah must be a port for a different manufacturer. BMW/MINI ports in Brunswick. The sig is somewhere in the MINIs on the dragon forum. COOPERation did TONS of sigs for all types of models and colors for the dragon.

 

My roadster will be dropped off in Bayonne, New Jersey.... From there to Bedford , New Hampshire ... Hopefully soon!

 

Bill, here is the link for all of the MOTD sig pics.

I am not familiar with the Mini website, so it might have many redeeming features, however, tracking isn't one of them... In fact, it sucks!... It still has me waiting for production , when in fact my car was completed on 3/6....
Is there any value to owner's resources?

 

I finally found out where, and how to track our ships thru the English Channel and further, although the Atlantic is still dead space. Here is the site I FINALLY found:
WWW.marinetraffic.com

This is WorldWide, so you have to move it around. Point at the different ships to get the name of them. My Tirranna is just coming up to Southampton as I write this. Raggi will get out of the rain/snow mixed soon.
Bill

 

Bill,
How do you know your roadster is on the Tirranna?

 

Bill,
Also, according to ask mini, my car was completed on 3/6.... So could I be waiting in that parking lot with you?

 

Because it is showing it was booked on this vessel on 3-05-13

 

Go to WW Lines google. In the last box, type in your VIN number. Either it will say No Records, or your booking information, including which ship. Thats how I found out my information. Hope this helps.!

 

Do you mean vin#?

 

Oops, my iPhone miss spelled again. Yes, VIN

By the way, Tirranna is docking at this moment. This is kind of cool.

Bill

 

My Roadster finished on the 5th and is booked for the Tiger leaving the 12th with ETA in CA on 4/3/2013. Looks like a mid-April delivery! You can track it on the shopping company website. In the forum, go to 1st gear stickies and the first thread tells you how to track with the shipping company. Hope this helps!
