That's very interesting. Maybe someone took it for a 5-day joyride before dropping it off at the terminal. I suppose you are very happy to be listed on the WW site though. If you're like me, you probably thought the day would never come. What a painfully long wait. Just think though - in a few days your MINI should be snug on the boat and dreaming of twisty turns and meeting its new owner. At least I hope that's what my MINI is doing right now.

hmmm... The WW site shows the MB arriving on the 8th. Sure would be nice if they were able to make up a day on the seas

And Ben, That's really good news! Now you'll be able to track more reliably. Whats ASKMINI telling you?

Roger - do you know which dates both cars shipped from Southampton? My car went out on the 14th I think, and I am also on the west coast, I am wondering when it will be coming in

If everything had gone right, I would have had my car next week (about 7 weeks from ordering, pretty good for the West Coast!). Instead, it'll be about 10 days later.

Whine, whine.

Oh well.

I will have my car in two weeks!

I'd go with LOADED, then you know your on. Status gets updated fast on their site. It'll probably be loaded the day of departure.

Okay..so the status will go from received at terminal..to LOADED. Great..I'll watch for it.

btdoyle · Mar 31st, 2005, 08:41 PM

Ok looking at the resolve, there is about 450 minis trying to get on right now, it looks like the cut off day for the wait list is the 23rd, meaning everyone's mini who was received at the port after the 23rd is wait listed with an asterisk. I am guessing there is not that much room available on the resolve if the wait list starts this far back. Maybe it will change by tomorrow?
PS. It is very sad i have my VIN number memorized...
PPS. Countdown till i get my mini: 20 days

You are probably on the same vessel my MINI is on, the Bujin, with projected (as of last week) arrival at Port Hueneme on the 7th, one week from today.

It was originally estimated to arrive on the 3rd, obviously something held it up.

Interestingly (if not somewhat disturbingly) the next landing for the Bujin should be San Diego, yet it's not listed as being scheduled (according to the San Diego Marine Information System) to be there.

I don't see it. I just looked at the WW site and the Resolve is showing 58 cars with most being waitlisted. Where do you see 450 cars?

Mine wasn't received at the terminal until yesterday and it isn't waitlisted.

I'm using this booking number
GBSOU300161
is that the booking number you have?

AprilWhine · Mar 31st, 2005, 10:17 PM

Update on the Cypress Trails: It has left NS and is en route to NY.

Thanks for the booking number Ken, I can watch that ship being loaded too now.

Ken,
That's it. My booking # is different. It's GBSOU300155, destination New York. When I pull yours up, it shows A LOT more cars and a destination of Charleston. Apparently the same ship / same voyage has different booking #'s based upon the destination .

I am using the same booking # as Ken. And my MINI was received at the port the 23rd so if btdoyle is right I should be loading tomorrow!

Tazminia · Mar 31st, 2005, 11:02 PM

Just wanted to let those know who are looking at the WW line, not to forget the K-Line vessels too.
Keep checking that site too!
http://www.kline.com/PCC-RoRo/Schedu...ticShuttle.asp
If you don't make a WW ship, keep checking the OL site for changes in your status. It might change a couple of days afterwards and if so, there's a good chance you caught one of these bad boys.
Good luck.

Wow that's a lot! Did you get that info from the WW website? Any idea how many MINI's will get to the USA every week?

I think on average they only pick up about 200 minis everytime a ship swings by southhampton. those are mostly the ones going to new york and SC, and that is only on WW lines. west coast does not use WW line. East coast uses k-line also but not nearly to the extent that they use the WW ships.

Claudia,
Yup. I got that information by wandering around the WW website. I need a life.

I have no idea of how many MINIs go to the USA each week. Right now, i'm only concerned about one MINI in particular.

Tom

AprilWhine · Apr 1st, 2005, 12:38 AM

There are 200 MINIs on the Cypress Trails heading for NY right now. At one time, almost 250 were booked, but the excess were waitlisted.
