Any other Mini's heading to OR or WA on the same truck?

Pacific Northwest folks that were on the Taipan:

Our Countryman arrived at the Portland dealership this morning. Picking her up tomorrow.

Great news!

Since it was dropped off in the morning , I wonder if it will make it up to Seattle Mini tonight instead of tomorrow...

Congratulations! Can't wait to see your pictures.

Good news...and a bit of a bummer!
'Sedona' is here! Going to MOO to pick her up this afternoon, that's the good news! Bummer, is that they drilled her for the front plate :( My MA is probably not as upset as I am, but he is, in fact, not happy. He's been stalking my car for two days now, and she snuck in last night and went straight to PDI early this morning. However, the silver lining in my cloud is that I was able to negotiate some additional savings as a result of the screw up...the Wife is something of an amateur photographer, so I should have some really decent photos to post in the next day or so!!

I was the same way! I cleaned out my garage, swept, washed, etc it. I even got blisters! I was so glad Winston's garage was ready in the end. The blisters were nothing because I knew in a few days Winston would be home

Congrats! It's a great feeling!

I will post pictures after some motoring and seeing TDKR.

I know I wasn't the most active on this thread, but I wanted to thank everyone for giving me plenty of content to keep me sane!

Think I saw that the 2013 Countryman will not be produced until after August 2012.

Waiting for My Wife's to get to Portland - still got about 30 days still. Not even on a ship. Hoping for the MIGNON on July 30.

According to customer relations, my countryman (do I HAVE to name it, seems everyone does), is in quality checking/final stages. I hope it doesn't take to long to ship to GA.
