MiniCS, DSMCS, and Eurotrash,
How do you guys know which ship your Mini were loaded on? I mean do you get that info from ASK MINI automated or live, from your beloved MA, or just manually putting in the VIN in the WW tracking page?
Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe only WW do West Coast, never K-line, since I didn't see Port Hueneme listed on the K-line schedule.
And how soon can you get the VIN tracking info on the WW tracking page? My car is at the port and the next WW ship to CA is the Elektra leaving 9/8.

I've had very little luck getting any accurate, fresh info from my dealer. My MA has been out of the office and the backup squad went into their system once when I had a question, but updates didn't seem to provide much. Had my car not been on a WW ship I'm sure the dealer would have been a better resource.
Not sure if this helps.

I just plugged the VIN into the WW site auto cargo tracking page. Playing the odds, I started with WW and happened to get a hit. The timing was roughly as follows...On the day I got an ASK-MINI reply of "en route to port" (on the train) I tried the WW site and got zippo (9/2). On the following day I got the reply that it had arrived at SH, I tried again and it was there with the ship name, sailing schedule and all further updates. That was all about a day and a half before I actually rolled on the ship (according to WW's records.)

I got a VIN 3 weeks ago and I guess in a day or two, I might get some info from the WW tracking link as eurotrash pointed out. As I said, the Elektra is leaving on 9/8, so my best bet would be I will get some info on Sunday.
Thanks.

Deepcscuba is in Parker CO, and he said a few posts above yours that he's on the Elektra, which is headed for Port Hueneme CA. It doesn't leave until 9/8, so if you're going there, too, you might make it. Your MA should have given you a "Vehicle Enquiry" sheet that has your configuration and your production number. Toward the top of the page, in the right column, look for "Port Loc."; the code will tell you whether you're Port Hueneme (PHMPOA), Charleston SC (CHSPOA), or elsewhere. Alas, there are no BMW Vehicle Distribution Centers on the Gulf Coast.
