Waiting List

[seb22]

Hey Guys,
Just writing to ask about the waiting lists. Passed my test today!! and was wondering how long i will have to wait to get my hands on a new COOPER??
can anyone help??

Thanks SEB22

i waited for 4 months

but then ive heard even after i got mine some people mentioning 5 or 6 weeks even.
could be shorter however if you manage to get a cancellation slot.

Congrats on passing your test Check with your dealer re. the wait time because it can vary. For me, I had to wait about 2½ months from order to delivery.

[Squire]

your best thing is to ask around the different dealers seb, some dealers have more build slots than others!!

I'vw just ordered a new MCS and delivery time is 4-6weeks, i remember that they had lots lots more build slots for coopers though so the waiting time shouldn't be too bad for ya!!

I ordered my MINI Cooper Park Lane on 4th March. I have had an email from the dealer this morning telling me that it should arrive at the dealers next week. So just over a month for me.

Let us know what spec etc you decide on

I got my car 1 week after ordering it because the dealer had been allocated 3 for showroom/demo use but only needed one. It depends if you are flexible on the spec or not really

Or you could do what I did and go to the dealer, point at the car in the showroom and say "I want that one". (in little britain style if necessary).

Still had to wait 2 months because of some weird tax thing but it was better than the 8 months I was quoted.

Good luck driving solo - take it easy

Two months, 1 week, and two days (I was counting!). It was the worst two months, 1 week, and two days of my life.

good luck

Was quoted 12 weeks when I enquired, but when I came to order (after sorting out the finances) it had gone up to 13 weeks from order, then a week before delivery it was put back 2 weeks, meaning I had a whole weeks holidays wasted (couldnt change them that late) that I was going to go out n play in her!

I counted days, hours and minutes while waiting,. read the print off the brochures, read the forums like a lunatic, anything at all I could do to keep sane until she arrived! Have to have gone back to the dealers for a lookaround at least 6 or 7 times in the waiting period, anyone would think I was a MINI obsessive! Lol!

Have to say tho that after finally getting her the pain of the wait disappears quickly, you are having too much fun to remember all the pain of the wait!!

Ordered mine Feb 11th picked up on March 18th, so whats that 5 weeks....

It was actually delivered on March 3rd but then I had the extra bits done to it.

Love it

Get a secondhand one

2 and a half months here but that's for a MCS, there will be more car slots for a Cooper but it'll best to talk to your local dealer directly

there may be new stock Mini's available as my previous was, and that took only a couple of weeks to register and collect...
