Also... I just got an email from WW saying the same thing that Jason's did... for us to contact www.bmwna.com. I wrote a quick email back informing the author that that particular web site doesn't exist.

bassplayer · Jul 31st, 2002, 01:32 PM

After my last response pointing out the wrong web site, I got another very nice email from WW. They've spoken to BMW and they are asking people to now contact www.bmwusa.com.

A bill of lading # has been assigned to my car - GB78651. The WW site shows 80 cars from that # loaded on the vessel.

I expect we'll see more cars added to that as the day progresses.

I got the same letter. Can't say I blame them. I'm sure I've been a pain in the rear to them.
I think my MINI should have it's own personal page within the WW web site. It's been there long enough to warrant it!
Been there since July 8th.
Now it says: Takasago: "Removed"
Aida: "Removed"
Isolde: "Removed"
Heck, I never was scheduled for the Isolde as far as I know!
Will I get a prize for being at the docks the longest?

I think they have it in for me.
Glad I kept those valium tabs from my surgery. I'm going to need them soon.

I still show loaded on ISOLDE. Has this left on schedule?

PS, for any super tracking fanatics, there's always the Southampton Cam http://www.bbc.co.uk/southampton/webcams/shipcam.shtml

It is on schedule and it arrives in the US on *MONDAY* which is great!

Jason

Lizzybobio · Aug 1st, 2002, 10:33 PM

Can I assume that I'm on it, if I am still in Loaded on Vessel Status ?! Are you sure it's on schedule? Did you sneak in a phone call before "The Ban"??

YES

jlivingood · Aug 5th, 2002, 12:23 PM

Anyone know if the Isolde arrived today? I cannot find any shipping news websites showing arrivals/departures.

Jason

Lizzybobio · Aug 5th, 2002, 12:51 PM

All I could find was https://www.firstnynj.com/ But nothing seems to be working, or is in "coming soon" status

I think because you have to be a Registered Company

jlivingood · Aug 5th, 2002, 06:57 PM

The Isolde is in port and has unloaded all of the cars! Mine was unloaded at exactly 10:58am this morning! Called my dealer (Don Rosen MINI in Philly) and they stated that it has been received by the VPC.

They indicated that MINI estimated placement on a truck on Thursday for Friday delivery at the dealer. Not sure if that will happen - there have been many VPC delays and some cars "estimated" to be at the dealer a week or two ago are still not there...

We'll see! Crossing my fingers and toes.

jlivingood · Aug 9th, 2002, 05:04 PM

Anyone take delivery of their car from this vessel yet?

Jason

Lizzybobio · Aug 11th, 2002, 09:48 AM

My dealer called yesterday (Saturday 8/10) and has the car in their possession.

Mr DK · Aug 11th, 2002, 09:58 AM

... and the very best of British luck to you in prising her from their greasy paws soon, Lizzybobio.

Happy MINI2ing, from Mark, DK, and Apple-the-MINI-Cooper.

Great - congrats! Now we know cars from our ship are making their way to dealer lots which means they are more or less current on processing cars at the VPC.

Thanks and enjoy!

jlivingood · Aug 18th, 2002, 11:20 PM

Got mine on Friday. I expect most people from this vessel should see their cars within the next few days...

eBrit,

Where did you take that picture? loks like it was from my Brothers back garden in Woolston, Southampton......!!

eBrit · Aug 30th, 2002, 04:07 PM

Hi...Back from a fortnights hols in Brittany...and so much to catch up on on MINI2.

Mini_Me... The photos are either taken from or under the Itchen Toll Bridge or in the main from a jetty half way out into the Itchin at Woolston by the the yatch club. They have all needed at least a 6x telephoto and then some digital enlargement as well.

The one photo that has elluded me is one of the WW Line ships loaded with MINI's actually upping anchor and sailing out. Now if your brother's back yard overlooks, perhaps he could......
