How do I know what boat it is on.

My car had finised production about 2 weeks ago. How can I tell which boat it is on and is there a way I can track its progress.

We really need a website like miniusa !!

We have a full tank of gas, half a pack
of cigarettes, its dark and we're wearing sun glasses. Hit it!

Thanks for that, do you have any idea which port it leaves the UK from. It is obviously delivering to the Melbourne port (I hope !).

MINIs are taken by train and leave from Southampton.

All I can say is don't look.

It will probably give you nothing but heartache. It did me. Just be happy when it gets to you.

CoopeR,

make sure you let us know what boat you are on. Who knows, could be the same one as Basil, Eltel and myself!

Good luck!

Spazz ... I have called Peck and Stokes and my dealer is going to let me know what boat it is on sometime today. Do you have any idea how long it takes to get to us after it has arrived at the Melbourne Port ?

Im not too sure, but should be finding out in a couple of weeks! Ive heard anywhere from 3 to 10 days to get to the dealer.

Hope its closer to 3!

Oh come on - why deny others the frustration, false hope and pointless dismay over something so totally out of our control that we've so relished!
