No probs.

Me neither! I was a very happy chap last night

I have been entering my VIN into WW every hour for the last day or so

lol

5 odd weeks to go.......

shanemcr · Apr 23rd, 2004, 02:31 AM

Mine didn't show up on WW until it was the day it hit the docs, either. In the morning (GMT), it got "booked" and by afternoon had been received at the dock. Stuck waiting until 27/4 sailing, now.

Yaa. It makes sense being the company probably only hears about it once the cars actually there ready to go.

Makes hell though for us pawns waiting for some action

Under track by cargo, click Auto.

Enter your VIN and thats it!

If its Week 17 prod. its probably done. Might even be sailing now like mine

No luck for me I'm afraid ... I'm supposed to be a week 17 too.

Oh, what letters are your VINs starting with? Mine starts WMRE - - - - - - - - - - -

Theres still 1 day left in the UK week, so it could still be around. It seems its only a few days for total, start to finish build.

Id be hoping it was done by tomorrow night anyway, as a quoted Week 17 build ends tomorrow....

That really surprises me that its not sitting in the boat next to mine minigolf...

minigolf · Apr 23rd, 2004, 07:27 AM

I only have one "W" Scotty. ???

Yeah I thought that was the case, pretty sure mine is only 16??? That might explain a few things.

Will look into this further.

Spottydog · Apr 23rd, 2004, 08:24 AM

My VIN is: WMWRE32040TC12345 (I've just changed the last 5 digits).

Does anybody know a website that tracks the ship across the ocean, or am I just being a little obsessive!

Hey! Yours is the same as mine almost! In theory, if these VINs make any sense at all, you should be on the same ship as me!

The WW tracking site tracks its progress across the sea, via an estimated time schedule. Just click the voyage number in the tracking window when you car shows up in it.

It tells you where when and at what time the ship is dicking at which ports etc, and an estimated time of arrival at your port.

minigolf · Apr 23rd, 2004, 01:16 PM

Woo hoo, I'm in! I just inserted the missing "W" and voila ... I'm on the Boheme due to arrive in Sydney on 08-06-04.

Hey Minigolf,
Your specs are very simular to mine, but my week17 car isn't popping up on the WW site yet!
My guess is you VIN number would be roughly: WMWRE32?40TC868?? - which is a little below mine!
Cheers!

JLMINI · Apr 24th, 2004, 01:23 AM

I'm so excited! My Mini was finished today and it just showed up on the WW site!!! (It wasn't there an hour ago!) Booked on the AIDA leaving 4/28 - arriving in NYC on 5/6! When I checked a moment ago there were 207 cars under the same booking number! Is anyone else on AIDA?

Check for the asterix though. Some of those cars are probably not going to travel on that ship. I can't remember if the asterix means it is going or it's not going, but it explains it on the site somewhere.

My MCS was booked on 3 different ships before it got loaded.

Just want to give you fair warning.

pocket_rocket · Apr 24th, 2004, 11:34 AM

WOOHOO! The attached is is what it looks like when your MINI comes off the boat on the other side

! Hope he had a safe journey!

NY Terminal is only 2 hours from my dealer! I am so anxious.. this next week is going to be killer!

Hope to be united by next weekend!
