Just found out mine made it on the Jinsei Maru on the 18th

 

Just spoke to my MA. They expect it on Thursday, and he'll call me soon as it's ready. So I'm hoping for a Friday or Sat pickup !

 

Hearthand, have you heard anything about your car or Glorious Leader?!
What port is your car sailing to?

 

Nothing....I should be coming into NYC...if we ever leave Germany...

 

Oh ok. MiniMe will be heading to GA. My MA said he'd email us the second he heard anything. Don't know, we may just keep bugging him.
Impatient much?! Yes!!

 

Mine is docking to NYC tomorrow, just tracked that my ship is just south of cap cod sailing towards NYC, yeah...

 

no.....

 

that's great!

 

Are you picking up in NJ Tata? I'm trying to figure out if the traffic will be much worse on Fri vs making the trip on Sat coming from CT.

@RFath - i picked a color I haven't seen much of! when my family heard me asking for photos they said, "haven't you seen enough pictures of it.." and I replied with - but they weren't pictures of MINE and didn't have the combination I picked. oh well one more day for news.... what else is new...

 

Glorious Leader was supposed to depart from Bremerhaven, on it's way to GA, today but I see now that it's departing tomorrow. Here's hopping that MINIme will be aboard, is already on board and just waiting to set sail.

Well you can check it out at the dock! It looks like the tracking is slightly off since Glorious Leader is empty water (LOL)...But you can see all the car lined up to board. There are a few that appear to me CM's (based on the dual sun roof)

CONGRATS!

 

DOUBLE CONGRATS!

 

I did notice that. This is the same site I've been using to keep up with shipping. I assume Glorious Leader is my boat because it's the next one going to GA but it's entirely possible that I'm completely wrong and my car is somewhere else entirely. In which case, our MA hasn't talked to us.

I kinda feel like we're driving him crazy. Hopefully he understands the excitement of ordering a new car!

 

For those waiting for their Minis coming into CA at Port Hueneme, it looks like the Platinum Ray has been delayed a day and is now due in Thursday, 23 Feb. according to the port's schedule. No sign of it on marinetraffic.org. Waaaa!

 

Yep, picking up at Princeton MINI, right down the road from me.

Fri traffic between here and CT is awful !

 

Seriously?? The OL says "En route", called MINIUSA and the automated voice said, "waiting for a ship", I spoke to a person and she told me, "it's at the vehicle distribution center in Baltimore." And my MA was out of the office today! BAH. I wish they would update accordingly. Thank goodness I don't only call or check the OL. I think with my first Mini I only checked the OL which made the arrival of my Mini so exciting! Man oh man. Only a few more days.

 

yahooo???

 

The ship is enroute

Don't fret the driving him crazy stuff...That's his job....

 

ChubbyMini-any update on your baby today...?

 

MiniMouse17-Have you entered your VIN # on the WW website?

Thanks Hearthand. I had stopped checking. Ask Mini automated voice is saying my car is still at port. I'll talk to a real person tomorrow and see what I get. If nothing there, we'll probably be calling our MA.

 

I understand...I've been trying all day. My MA is off on Tuesday and I tried Ask Mini this morning...no updates...

 

Yeah, it goes in the cargo ID box right?! Nothing showing up.
