This seems to be the best/easiest tracker I've found. Lets you zoom all the way in.

Molly brown is is unsinkable you know. Maybe you should have hung out at the port a little longer. She is at the port waiting for a ship. Hope she makes the Courage today. Nothing on the WW sight yet.

Yes, production was supposedly finished on the 7th and then it took its time getting down to the port. It was supposedly at Southampton by the 8th and boarded today (the 18th) or last night. So at least a week sitting at the dock.

Good to know.... I remember this whole tracking business was very painful last time and it is again. For other cars I've odered they have just shown up roughly when I expected them...with Mini's I obsessively keep checking, calling the robot five times a day even though it never changes. I've even started entering my VIN on the WW website just incase!

Possible good news for you is that the Tonsberg isn't leaving until tomorrow--nobody's missed anything yet!
The info on this pdf changes daily, it's not a fixed pdf schedule.

Example: the Courage was across the channel (Belgium) this morning and it's supposed to leave from England today...so you might have an extra day to catch up over there, too?
Let's hope...

I have a car-naming dilemma. I waited until I got my SUV to name it and decided it was named "Trevor," largely based on the navi system voice. He just sounded like a Trevor to me -- polished, precise, but friendly (YMMV...)
My new Mini has to be a guy as well. It just has the makings of a guy car. Visually, with all the chrome, pepper white, all black interior, etc., it just screams guy to me. But the navi voice (I'm told) is female only. Very confusing. Do not want to name it "Pat."
If I'm feeling brave, I understand I can hack the system and switch to the male Brit voice. That would be great -- then I could name him Nigel or Simon or something. But I don't know how I feel about hacking the navi.
What's a guy to do?

Wait til it gets here, sometimes they name themselves, like pets do.
"Pat" -- hahahaha!
The car's name doesn't need to have anything to do with the navi voice. That's like saying you can't talk to your vehicle when the key's not in it.
And FYI, my pepper white outside-black inside coupe is a GIRL. And she already has a name.
(Contemplating not hitting "submit" because I fear some of you may send out the dudes in white coats to come get me. Did I say I live in Baltimore? Just kidding.)

Wow. We get you on a boat and in 5 minutes you're on to dilemma #2.

I've always used girls names for my MINIs. The current one is named Carrie because she's sexy and sassy but not a sl*t like Samantha.
Haven't come up with a name for my new one yet, but since it is likely floating in the ocean at the moment waiting for someone to fish it out, maybe something like Ariel. Or Rusty.
No, I'm not annoyed by my further delays at all
