Enjoy Paul, I know I am!

 

Thanks. I have loaded a photo to the gallery and saved it to the desktop. I've pasted the url in the signature block and also uploaded it in the box below.
The photo shows in the photo box.

 

Looks like I'm getting close but as you can see only the url shows.

 

Finally figured out the thumbnail!

Put an order in on a 2013 today. Back in Dec. '11 I bought Desmond off the lot and fell in love with every aspect of the MINI and MINI community. Since then I discovered a bunch of features that would have made my Desmond even more awesome. I decided to bite the bullet and order a car made to my spec. Externally Desmond II will mirror Desmond I.

Can't wait to get it!, only 6-8 Weeks!

 

OMG . . . this is driving me INSANE! My Highgate hit the dock on Thursday and I hope to have it by the end of the week, maybe Thursday or Friday. I hope Hurricane Sandy doesn't delay things.

I just can't stand it.

 

That's looks great! Congratulations!

 

After a forest-worth of paperwork, I brought this one home. (Too rainy to get much in the way of photos.) It's fun but takes a little getting used to driving. A big (little) change from my pickup - the clutch is definitely different. :-/

Happy Motoring, everyone!

 

Looking Good!

 

Not sure if these pictures will post or not. Just a quick shot of Audrey and a close up of her paint.

 

Niiiice!! Congrats! I'm so looking forward to seeing Paddington in person. Those blue flakes are awesome!

 

I can't seem to get my image to show up. Halp!

 

Paddington will be very suave and handsome!

 

Welcome to the queue! That is one fine build. I'll be waiting for some photos in a few weeks.

According to the robot voice, Dover (my 2013 MCS) is now being transported to the port. Hopefully he'll be able to catch the Oct 31'st sailing for Baltimore while the OL website still tells me Dover is "On order". What a useless website that is.

 

Congrats, amancuso! Desmond II looks to be a great MINI!

Hey everybody, lets get those tops down!

Winston is soooo close. arrrrgh!

 

Anytime now! It's worth the wait!

 

The original schedule had the Topeka entering the canal on 11/5. Thought all on board might like to know this.

 

OK, I think I figured out how to add an image of my car. Now I'm official!

 

Hello all!

Previously owned a 2005 MC, but sadly had to give him up as some serious mechanical issues were coming up, and I am moving across the country from GA to AZ in a month. After having completed the cross-country drive already, dear hubby was not too keen on doing it again. So we bid farewell to Chili, and ordered a 2013 MC R60 in late September when I was out in AZ.

MA contacted me with production number earlier this month with a week 45 production. And my new baby finally went into production last week on 10/23. Targeting a delivery date of early to mid-December.

Owner's Lounge for some reason is still not recognizing production number, so I cannot see anything that is going on. Is that strange? I called the 1-886-ASK-MINI number and the auto update said it was scheduled to be completed on 11/2!!

Hoping the Owner's Lounge lets me in soon, patience is definitely not my strongest suit when it comes to my MINI.

 

Hey NAM!

I just ordered my first MINI on 10/26! It's a 2013, white silver and black, Coupe S with JCW package (couldn't resist the wheels and aero kit) and Xenons.

Now I just have to survive the wait!

 

Owner's Lounge is not very good. I've been on the Topeka since 10/25 and the OL is showing me as in production. Ask Mini is the way to go for reliable information. Based on your info (lack of) and my experience they may be having some problems with the site.

 

Thanks!!

 

Err, that is 866 by the way.

That number just said Gollum II is at the port looking for a ship (no shipping info). The Owners Lounge says that I'm scheduled for production.

Thanks for the tip on that telephone number.

Cheers,

Charlie

 

Thanks everyone! Pics coming as soon as I get him home!
