Yar,
Ordered on 5-20, SA messed up color, scheduled for 06/04 production, then recieved a new production number.

Now scheduled for 06/11 completion but I am afraid they'll change this yet again as my SA can't confirm if my Clubman will be Silver or Black on the back, I want Black.

This was the problem from the beginning as I want a pepper white roof with the racing stripes down the entire length of the car.

You are getting the exact color combo that I wanted, all the way down to the interior! Was going to do the stripes on the roof also. This will be our second mini, and I let my oldest pick the color combo since it will be his to drive in two years. Enjoy your mini knowing that there will be very few like that.

I have yet to see any Pepper White Clubmans with this configuration as they all are with colored roof or with out the roof stripes / Spoiler / Choc Leather interior. I think it's going to look great!

Do you know your port of entry? My dealer is in Mentor Ohio, and mine is the one in the carolinas (I forget the city). Just got off the phone with ask mini and they said it was in the body shop and hadn't made it to paint yet. Corporate offices for ask mini are 2 hr from home, how wild is that?

Scheduled for completion 6/12

I ordered my Clubman on 6/2. It changed to scheduled for production on 6/5. And ASK MINI says that the Completion Date is 6/12!

I just called ASK MINI this afternoon. Mine is also in the body shop, ready for paint. Scheduled for completion on the 12th. When it comes time, do you know how to find out which ship it will be on?

All I can tell you is to go to the sticky "how to track your mini" there is a wealth of info there and read other former posts. I just got off the phone and my mini has been produced and is sitting at the port of exit.

WW Site

I haven't seen mine yet either. But I thought that I read on some post that it may take 24 hrs after the car arrives at the docks for it to show up on the WW site.

Nor does mine, but it might be a K-Line ship, and thus it won't show up there. From looking at the K-Line schedule, up at the top it looks like it's the "Western Highway" will be the next ship, and it's not there until the 17/18th. Anyone know if only the ships listed under the "North Atlantic Shuttle Service" are the only ones that are used by BMW/MINI? I'm asking because the "K-Line West Bound" actually has a ship the "Georgia Highway" that'll be at SH on the 13th (tomorrow), and goes to the states. My Mini is coming into Charleston and by looking at the "incoming schedule" for Charleston it lists that ship as carrying Vehicles.

So, anyone know? :-)

Have credible information that my girl left the factory on 8 Jun and is on the dock at Southampton as of 10 Jun, but not my MA nor ASK MINI can tell me what production week I am in.

Car hasn't shown up on WWL. Nothing from MA on K-Lines. Only sailings going towards Charleston in near future are 13 Jun, 22 Jun, 23 Jun, and 27 Jun.

Anyone out there have any info that might get me closer to knowing which ship?

I don't know anything. My MA hasn't returned any e-mails since weds. He must not know either.

I might be wrong but...

I might be wrong, but after doing a little research in the forums, I found a couple of links to the W/W schedule and the K-Line schedule. If I am reading them right, it looks like on the W/W schedule, the next one to leave Southampton is the Don Pasquale departing on 6/23 and arriving at Charleston on 7/5. Looking at the K-Line schedule, there is a departure from Southampton (Western Highway) on 6/18 and arriving at Charleston on 7/2. But there is no way that I know of to see if the car is really on a K-Line vessel. If this information is correct, then I don't think that the VIN would not show up on the W/W site for a while yet.
I got the pdf links from the "How to Track your MINI: Revised, Expanded and Updated" under the 1st Gear forum.
Does any of this look correct?
