Decode Production Number?

[Yurinaut]

Is there a way to decode a Production Number? I mean, is the build week or some other significant information included in the production number???


Thanks,
Mike

A couple of other Q's too.... If you get a production date for a U.S. deliverable car, how long do you think it would be until delivery (dealer quotes are about 4 weeks).

Thanks as always!!

Got to the MINIUSA site and log into the owners area. You'll need your production #. Once you create an acount, you can find out when your build begins and track its progress online.

My build starts May 10. I expect delivery in late June.

Thanks. Finally saw the build date after I had posted those two. I have the same build date (5/10). Any idea how long after that until it arrives?

Thanks,

May 10 = v. good day

I've heard anything from 45-60 days. But the beauty of the online tracking is that we should be able to get a decent idea of a delivery date as the build process matures - i.e. after it gets accepted at the VPC, we'll also know when it leaves the VPC on the truck. I'm sure our dealers can then help with some experience they've had with durations from other cars they've had in bound.
