I was just looking too and it was docked earlier, and disappeared once and came back. Now it has disappeared again. Who knows. The schedule on the WW website says it isn't supposed to depart again until tomorrow (probably late tonight), but like you said, either way, our MINI's should all be state-side by next weekend! We'll be motoring by Halloween!

So I called Mini and they now have my wife's car slated for testing. I was told yesterday that it was at the port of exit, and last night the web site also showed awaiting transport. Any one have this happen to them? Do they test them while they are waiting?(LOL) I know I would if I were a dock hand! Do you think that means it is on the Test Rd, as depicted on the satellite photo?
BTW the satellite photo of the minis on the dock is cool. Given that it is nighttime there, I think that is a non changing shot. Still cool though. It also says the Tombarra is still in dock. Maybe they will let my wife's car on!

I think the shot changed a few times earlier today. There are definitely more MINIs on deck now than there were this morning. Maybe the shot doesn't change once it gets dark? Looks like WW updated the schedule, now showing the 10/9 arrival in Southampton but still showing a 10/10 departure... all aboard!

I purchased mine through Puget Sound MINI club as part of a group buy so it was only $16 I believe, otherwise I believe that it was $20. It is from Craven Speed and the club had PSMINI inscribed on it, pretty cool and can't wait to put it on the car. Of course, can't wait to get the car.

How EXCITING! Seems like a lot of you are leaving me at the dock , but I knew this time would come. Congrats to you and bon voyage to your MINIs as they travel the big seas safely. Keep posting updates!

Thanks for the link. Pretty cool to look at all the MINIs on top of that parking garage. I hope mine is undercover as I am sure they didn't apply any sunscreen.
I really started looking at buying a MINI in June. Coincidentally, about 2 weeks after completing a Mediterranean cruise that started in Barcelona and ended in Southampton. I was there and didn't even know that I should have been waving at the MINIs.

Has anyone been able to get a status on the MINI at the WW tracking site with their VIN number?
I'm just curious because I have yet to get confirmation that my little green hornet is actually getting on a boat. I am going to have to call and start bugging my MA. Poor woman, she has no idea what's she in for.

Congrats Week 40ers!!! We were on week 40, but got moved to week 38, but I still check in with your progress. That's a GREAT feeling to see your ship and new MINI depart from the UK...now it's just the waiting for it to get stateside! Our week 38s coming to the west coast arrive in port this weekend!! It won't be long!!

The Integrity is pulling in to Southampton right now. Looks like the Tombarra and the Integrity just sailed by one another a few minutes ago. I'm sure our MINIs were waving as they went by.
