HI! Quick question. I have on order my 2012 JCW cabrio. The build week is 44. I ordered my guy about 2-3 weeks ago but do not have a production number (I ordered it through military sales). Is this normal? Since I'm not familiar with the mil sales has anyone else done this before? Will I get anythign to track my guy with?
Guidance? Advice? Suggestions?
Thanks! :D

I haven't been able to get the WW tracking site to work. Expect our cars have been unloaded by now, though, because I see that the Carmen has moved on. I've got to call my MA today anyway, so will hope he knows something more. And I'm with you, the wait has gotten just a little bit harder now knowing the MINI is so close by.

MA just called. My car is at dealer & I can pick up Monday. I am excited.
I am also really disappointed in MINI systems and communication. On Weds, MA advised car would be delivered in 10-14 days. It still shows as "enroute" on the owners lounge.
Dealer is only 10 mins away. May go by and drool on it.

its a cooper s, i don't think it anything like that. besides my car 20 others were returned to the shipper so i guess is due to space issues.

Looks like I'm in the same boat. I believe we both hit the november build if we're lucky. I had two local dealers delay me, now I don’t have anything to drive when the snows come - not too happy. I believe we'll go into prod later this month, from THERE there will be the 6-8 week turn.
I am so looking forward to going into production (and tracking my guy)!!! I can easily wait the 6-8 weeks after that once I know my MINI's been completed

This is my second time to wait for arrival and it doesn't get much easier. My CR Clubman S is waiting for his new cabrio buddy to arrive. All I need is more time to drive the cars. I'm a bit of a pig with 4, but the only ones that truly count are the 2 MINIs.
I'm killing time by researching available plates with the motor vehicle dept.
Hope you hear more on your Cooper S. Nothing beats the day you get to pick it up and drive it home.

The OL lounge now shows at VDC. I know it updates slowly, it was unloaded off the CARMEN yesterday.
Can't wait!
#813
Huck -- OL says same for mine. I read somewhere in here that the VDC is normally closed on weekends, so I'm thinking Tues/Wed delivery is much more likely than Monday. Sure would be nice to have this beautiful weather on delivery day! Dealer is Passport Mini of Alexandria.
Love your Mini Box, by the way!

Intro
Greetings all. I've been browsing the forums for a few weeks now while not-so-patiently waiting for my MINI. I thought I'd go ahead and introduce myself. My little guy (tentatively calling him Thatcher) is booked on the Integrity to Baltimore next week. Any one else currently booked on the same ship?
He'll be my very first MINI. I drove my aunt's 2002 MCS one weekend. We have a lot of roundabouts here in Indy and zipping thru the first one was the kiss of death to my 2007 Mazda 3! I placed my order for Thatcher about a week later.

Bubble and Squeak and PSM55,
Mine was also on the Carmen. Coming to MINI of Montgomery County. My MA has been great about updates--he let me know it is due at the dealer Monday or Tuesday. He said it needs a couple inspections, gas, and a bath, and it will be ready. He did not say how long the dealer will need. I think they will install the mirror caps as well at the dealer. Hope yours gets to your dealer soon as well. We certainly should have them by next weekend, hopefully sooner.

I'm replacing a 2007 Mazda 3 as well. It's funny, I always loved how that car drives, but then trying a MINI... yeah. Someone else can love the Mazda instead.
#819
Even after owning my Clubman for 3-1/2 years I still love just being in the garage with it, let alone driving it. Just had my husband's workshop turned back into a one-car garage so now OTTO has his own spot away from the other cars in the back garage. It means I can take him out more without having to lock the dogs in to drive him out of the back garage. The garage seems to be just the right size for him, too. The only problem is that the new MINI is on its voyage here right now and so OTTO is going to have to take turns with MADD MAX.

Returned to Shipper?
Hello Everyone,
I plugged my VIN into the WW cargo ship tracking, and it shows that it was booked on the 10/15 ship heading to Port Hueneme, but that it was returned to the shipper the same day. Did something happen to my car?
Thanks for the help.

I think this may mean that the ship was too full. Hopefully you'll make the next departing vessel!
