Advice on Waiting - MINI Cooper Forum

My dealer is getting sick of me showing up begging for another test drive again.

And, I know this list is getting sick of me too....

I know exactly where my car is at any particular day and I've pre-ordered things to add to the car when I get it. I wish there was an Internet site with a mini-cam inside the car or at least on the boat with a wide shot of all the mini's....

Anybody got any advice on how to cope....hehehe

Hell if I know. I don't even have my build date yet. Maybe I should start ordering my little add ons. JC sig decals, etc.

I can relate. My DSW MCS just arrived at the dealer today (got to see them taking it off the truck!!!). I still have to wait until Thursday to take delivery.

I'm taking the sleeping pills and vodka approach until then.

Actually mine was on the Tanabata that arrived in port on 8/22. By 8/24 it was at the distribution center in Greensville, SC... was loaded onto a truck this morning (at 9:30 it was waiting for the truck) and arrived at the dealer around 12:30 while I was test driving another MCS. Now I have to wait for the dealer to prep it before I can take it home. Don't quite understand why it's taking them 3 days to prep... but I've waited this long so another 72 hours won't kill me.
