No, I just ordered straight from the dealer.
It's a Cooper, not a Cooper S -- apparently there's not a backlog of orders for the MC.

I suspect my timing was fortunate and I must have got the order in just before a production run started, and things fell into place. The dealer was surprised as well by how quick the order arrived. And it's unlikely someone came up with the same spec. shortly before me and just happened to cancel

You missed out on all the fun of having to wait.

Not likely with an ocean to cross and Panama canal to navigate.
Unless anyone has forked out to have the car airlifted...?
