Mine was aboard Bishu but still at VDC. Hoping for delivery to dealer today, although work may prevent me from picking it up.

deejay, you can call ASK MINI at any hour. They have an automated information center when the offices are closed that I found to be accurate at most times. Keep in mind that ASK MINI is only good untill the car reaches the port for shipping. After that you need to get what you can from the dealer.
Hoping your gets to you quickly!

I think that all MINI dealers are open till 9:00 throughout the week. If your's becomes ready for pick-up I hope that fits into your work schedule. That would really suck to know that you can pick it up and realize you cant.

I know there is a Coast Guard site where you can sometimes get word on a ship outside of ground radar but I don't know off hand what that site was.
Grandy Mercury will be off radar for a couple of days and then get picked up again by US ground radar and you can continue to track.

If you know the "Call Sign" of the ship you can track it with Sailwx.info like I did with my posts... click on the little link next to my name below in the Quote (this takes you back to my post) and you can see the image I attached. Some times your ship reports it's position, sometimes it doesn't, but this worked for me.

First off, PMKNHD, I love your pictures. That is one awesome Clubman. Love your Countryman too Qball1963. I really like that dark blue with the Chrome.
My MINI was ordered on 4-24. I was a little sad that it's progress seemed to be trailing some others on this forum. Now I am so glad. Last night, Oklahoma had one heck of a hail storm come threw with up to softball sized hail with more to come tonight. I would not have wanted any chance of my brand new MINI on a truck on it's way to the dealer in that kind of weather. So this morning, I am very relieved to be lagging the rest of you guys . I love seeing all of the brand new MINI's though. Keep those great photos coming.

1st Gear
I ordered my first Mini 5/15/2012 in Greenville, SC. Got my production number for the MA 5/17 and of course it had the wrong color listed. In a about 1 week it changed to the correct color and options and said "On order" Then about a week later it still said the same so I called the 1-877-ASKMINI. The nice man that I talked to said it was in production. I checked the site again the next day and it was updated to "Scheduled for Production". I called back again (IMPATIENT) and the recording said in production and scheduled to be complete 6/6/2012. Can I say EXCITED!!!! I just hope that there are no glitches that hold it up.
I have checked thru the NAM for tracking and looks like if it makes the boat June 8th, it should hit the docks in Georgia June 23rd. I can not wait for it to get here. Going from a Tahoe (will keep for family trips) to a Ice Blue convertible with Black top 6 speed with Mini Connect and Cold Weather Package, Polar Beige leather seats. It will be a blast driving it and not spending $400 a month in gas!!!
Now, I need a name for the car, Ice Blue...any suggestions?

Don't feel too bad, I ordered mine on 4/11 and I still haven't taken possession. More pictures when I pick it up after the Aero Kit is on.
Fate was definitely on your side with this one, that would have been horrible to have your MINI pummeled on a truck on the way to you. It would have been bad enough if that happened while it was home.
What the heck is Oklahoma doing having hail at the end of May let alone softball size. There were no tornado warnings or anything there, right?

Now stay away from that popcorn or you'll spoil your supper!

Unfortunately this seems to be the case. Mine has been waiting for a ride since the 24th.

I like how they have matching chrome and wheels (real nice with the black on one and silver on the other)
