I am so excited! Hope all goes well with yours!

Not long now!

Shorter now that it is at 36 days

mmm by my calculations I have one day, 2 hours precisely till I pick up my MINI

I have even arranged for my boss to drive me to the dealership to take delivery!!

Has anyone had any luck getting their VIN from the MINI dealer in Perth (there is only one).

I order my car in August and dropped in today to be told they don't know the VIN till it gets to Australia

My salesperson did know that the car had been built which puzzled me as I assume the VIN would be part of that info??

Am I getting the brush off? It won't make the car get here any quicker but trying to track it will help pass the time!!

Rubbish! They get the VIn the day that is built! I got to track my car onto the ship an off again!

Mine is now sat in the dealers garage and I saw it for the first time today!

I get it on Monday!

You should get the VIN well before it even gets put on the ship - You need to ask the dealer again to provide it to you... I was fortunate that my dealer is in the know with such things (although he did send the wrong VIN through at first :P)

rellik666 - it must be a matter of hours that you are counting down till you get your new MINI!

I contacted them yesterday as well thinking they would give me the VIN but no luck either (I only ordered end of August)

My husband thinks that as soon as they got our order they lost interest in talking to us!

Push them on it!
I oredered my car in August and it is here already!

Tell them that they have a system where they can see the whole of BMW australia. They should know, what dealer isn it?

Thanks for confirming my suspicions

It is Auto Classic Mini, I won't say who the salesperson is.

I'll speak to someone different and try a more persuasive argument and post an update with the outcome.

Good luck, I'll be dropping in to Auto Classic today so will ask them why they don't know.
