Delayed...
Well, after breaking down in Indy & again in KC, the truck delivering my MINI wasn't able to make my appointment. I was supposed to pick it up yesterday, but it didn't arrive at the dealership until today. My MA was kind enough to send me a couple teaser shots...
Unfortunately I'll be out of town until Wednesday so I'll have to wait a few more days.

Lil Maky went to body shop on 3/25. Calling ASK-MINI All week for updates no change in status. Most builds take 8 to 10 days. I suspect that when OL updates on Saturday or Sunday night it will be done waiting for a train
I think you will get surprised this week with your car done with production

Hi all,
After mulling it over for about a year, our decision was unfortunately expedited when my wife had an accident and our BMW 128i was totaled . Fortunately she is OK, and after about a month of shopping around, we now have a JCW Hardtop on order!
We were sorely tempted by the JCW they had on hand, especially with the heavy discount they offered, but there is something about ordering a car you know hasn't been too sullied by other people's grubby hands . Just kidding, but we are a tad paranoid about buying any manual transmission car off the lot. The main factors, of course, are getting exactly what we want, and the sweet agony of anticipation. We don't even have a production number yet!
It's only been a day, but I think I already want to amend the wait to just "agony".

It seems like it is currently taking exactly 2 weeks from the end of production end date for our poor cars to find a spot on a boat, so unfortunately you probably have a couple more days. :( Hopefully you'll get lucky but it not, Thursday is your day to get assigned a vessel.

mine still shows at the VDC from 3/22 off the talisman, but the car is sitting in my driveway.....picked it up yesterday
call your dealer, they have the most accurate info after the boat docks (per ASK-MINI)

Yes I was also on the talisman, I did call my dealer and he said its still in Balitmore waiting to be assigned a truck. I'm getting pissed now!

I hope my car goes through the VDC quickly. I added fog lights which are installed there before it goes to dealer. Hopefully it won't be a long process! I only live 45 min. away from the port - so here's hoping!
