Hi Guys I ordered a MINI One 1.6 in midnight black on 17th may. The salesmen said it would be ready on the 26th June. However today (02/06/2010) he rang me to say it would have been built iby the next 2 - 3 days and will email me then to let me pick my registration. So how long is this likely to take from now?

Still the 26th or would you assume it'd sooner?

people on here are so ignorant

maybe they just don't know the answer. You had any progress yet?

Has it been delivered?

Ordered my new Mini One Graphite on bank holiday Monday and it has now been made as of Friday, and it is being delivered to the dealers (Scotthall Leeds) by 25th at the latest. So I would assume that the 26th is the very latest you would get it after its been through bodyshop etc, but I would assume you will receive it sooner all depends on the dealer.

Ordered a new Mini One Graphite yesterday (11 June) and the dealer said that delivery should be in about 3 weeks, hopefully at the end of the month! I thought we might have to wait 6 weeks or more for a factory order, but apparently not. May have just got the order in in time as Mini are stopping production of the Graphite very soon. Has been a very popular edition according to the dealer; Snows of Portsmouth.

Gosh - lots of Graphite models waiting to be picked up! I ordered my mini clubman Graphite one a few weeks back now. Infact, it was Thursday 3rd June! So, just after bank holiday. Maybe mine will be built soon! I hope so :-):biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

Dealers said end of June for me. But looking at the above post, it might be sooner :aargh::biggrin::biggrin:

getting my black mini one convertible tomorrow ordered 1st May! was excpected to arrive 26th June.

That sounds about right, six weeks for a factory order, although the dealer is telling me mine will be sooner. Only time will tell.....

my dealer told me mine had finished being painted today! Made me very excited not sure how much truth in it. :p

Ordered Cooper S on Bank Holiday Monday 31/05.

Was told 4-6 weeks, picked it up yesterday :cool:

Couldn't be happier with it, fantastic motor!

That gives me hope, may get mine before the end of the month :)

You know you have made the right choice when it is a Mini.....

Ordered my Pepper White Cooper S on June 14th. On the 23rd it was out of the factory waiting transport. My dealer has given me very little information as to tracking the car or to give me a date of delivery. I've had to track it through the lounge or to call Mini customer service. Anyone know how long it takes for it to ship over the pond to and deliver to TX?

Not another Mini going to Texas! I thought you all drove nothing smaller than a Caddilacs over there, there is no room for all your Rifles and machine guns in the boot of a mini:biggrin:

It takes the Queen mary 7 days southamton to NY so it's got to 10 to 14 days to get to your dealer IMO.

Too funny!

We are sophisticated now. We carry pistolas. They fit nicely under the seats.

Thanks for the info. I finally got and update on the OL that it made the boat. Still can't track it on the WW website. It must have taken a different ship.

BTW, do you think a nice longhorn would look good on the bonnet? Ha!

Now I know why so many US minis have trouble with faulty seat aduster mechanisims its all those Glocks jambed under there.

sorry to bring up an old thread, but I was wondering how long it takes MINI to ship across to California.

My mini has been built since the 25th August and is still sitting on the docks in England, "Awaiting Transport".

My expected delivery is the end of September, so it has plenty of time, but like everyone else I am eager! :biggrin:

Anybody have a guess?

Thanks!
