Hello All.
Ordered Hot Chocolate Mini Cooper D Clubman on 15 December 2007.
What an exciting Xmas .
Estimated delivery was September 2008 .
However, now looks like it will be built in February .
Roll on the new year .

Sounds cool

welcome to MINI2

Clubmans are selling like crazy atm so Feb is a good build slot

Welcome and congrats Sure hope your Clubman comes before September Mind you if it's being built in February you should have it in March at the latest.

Ok why are people ordering Clubman D's after I ordered my Dooper Hatch and still getting them before me

Ahh well, congrats on the order

[Nairda]

Hey! Thanks All.
I've got my fingers crossed on having it on an 08 plate on 1 March .
@ Supa: Yes, it does sound unfair. It could be that they want to get more Clubmans OTR?
I also know that North Oxford Garage have an excellent relationship with the factory .

Good luck with the car. Have fun and welcome to MINI dom.

Perhaps, because you placed an order with a dealer that had already sold its allocation for the Cooper D.

If you had gone to another dealer, you may have got it sooner.

Still, not long to wait now

Very true that and the fact (as minisoopercooper pointed out) I didnt really want it till March anyway

Quick update. My MINI is being built w/c 28 January 08. Not bad for an order placed on 15 December and given it's a diesel. Very excited .
