Our Atlantic Cruise

So when will our VINs start popping up on the boat's website?

The Baby is HERE!
It's an Indi Blue S, and has everything (plus rally lights) but the NAV. White wheels too! :-)

Booked on the Don Juan

My car was completed on 9/24... It was listed on the WW shipping site this morning. If it really gets on the boat it should hit New York on 10/8.
Looks like us 9/27's are moving fast!

Indi Blue/white-dark gray space cloth <white wheels and bonnet stripes, sport pack, cold weather pack, OBC, and MFSW UJ on the roof

No Don Juan

You guys may be interested to know that the Don Juan WON'T be loading any MINIs this weekend at Southampton. She's only berthing at the western docks for Honda's , etc.

ARRRGHHHH!!!

Stuck at status 150

Maybe today it will start?

Maybe there are managing cars to shipping dates. The next 2 boats to Charleston are Oct 5/6 so I still have time to make it.

I'm a little late on this thread, but I figured I'd chime in with a "me too" - My Electric Blue MCS has been "scheduled for production" on 9/27 for some time now - in fact it's shown that date ever since the dealer gave me the production number. The VIN populated about 10 days ago.

Where do I get these status codes from? You have to call the ASK-MINI # for those?

The waiting is tough, but I'm busy fixing up and cleaning my garage for the new car - lots to do to keep my mind off the tracking and waiting!

Well, scratch my last post of optimism. The guy at Ask Mini called me back and said he had made a typo with my production number and the status info wasn't for my car. I'm still at 152 and he estimates dealer delivery for early to mid November.

Obviously I was very disappointed after getting such great news earlier. But at least the guy realized his mistake, called my home number left a message, then called my dealer to get my cell phone and left a message on that too.

Never mind - I called them - I'm at 155 - my car is built!!!

My best guess is that it'll be on the Figaro on 10/6...

OK, back to the garage prep...

How bizarre that our little group (9/27 Builds) are being split up all over now..?

I am at 182... Woo hoo!!
Now, I have to wait for a west coast boat...

I called ASK MINI today, and got a status of 190?!

Well, it didnt get on the Galaxy... but I went to the W&W site and it looks like I am booked for the Manon on Oct 3rd.

My IB/W S was completed 9/24, received at port on 9/25, and loaded aboard the Don Juan 9/30. It is due in NY on 10/9 Then on to Westchester

Don Juan is sweetly caressing my MINI as we speak....

If all goes well I could be driving in 10-15 days.

Don Juan. I actually got it from the Wallenius Whilhelmsen Dockside Manager at Southampton that she wasn't coming in for any MINI's and that was only two days before she arrived! Plans seem VERY flexible if they were changed in that space of time.

Yeah eBrit,

I read your post and resigned myself to a late October arrival. Imagine my surprise when I checked out the sites (MINI2, MINIUSA and WW tracking)tonight and saw that my MINI had left today on a ship that I thought I couldn't make....

Feels real good!!!
