How many of you had your MA contact you first regarding updates and status changes? I've always had to call and or email them, after getting my responses it always seemed they were semi disinterested or short winded.
The wait has just gotten a lot longer for me! My current car just either had an exhaust bracket or hole appear in it. Started her up yesterday afternoon and it sounded like a pack of hells angels :(

"where do you get this "booking number" from?"
For cars that have been booked on Wallenius-Wilmeswhatever lines, when one checks at their website, goes to "cargo tracking", then "auto cargo", then enters their car's VIN, one should get "Cargo Status History." That might look like this: ( I just did this tracking to get the info to paste here, so for my VIN the site is working -- make sure you use your entire VIN and check that you have it perfect -- when I entered it incorrectly it responded with "no information available.")
Cargo Status History
Cargo Id : WMWRE33526TL......
Booking Number : GBSOU370562 Bill Number : GB384097
Vessel: UNDINE Port of origin : SOUTHAMPTON
Voyage : EX510-UND Port of Destination : CHARLESTON,SC
That shows one the Booking number, the vessel, the ports involved and the vessel's voyage number. I purposely deleted part of my car's VIN so as not to broadcast it......
The only shipping stuff I know about is what MINI uses going to East Coast ports. I might suggest checking the MINI2 website to see if they have tracking information for other destinations, although I don't know for sure that their FAQ shows anything other than East Coast.
Hope this helps.
cheers,
Paul

After arriving home today, I checked with the Wallenius web-site. The present voyage of the Undine started a day later than originally scheduled from Southampton, and WW site had changed the arrival date in Charleston to 18 November. Evidently they have been making good time, because today the WW website says the Undine will arrive in Charleston on the 17th of November and depart on the 18th.
The cars draw nearer to reaching us as I type!
cheers,
Paul

Confussed/Question
I understand that according to prior threads CA cars use NYK line. I went to the WW site for the sake of it and found my car booked on the Tosca. It is supposed to leave 11/16/05. I know I could miss this boat , I hope not since I have been at port since 11/4/05. I did not think us Californian's could track our cars because we were NYK customers. So California bound cars it might be worth a check on the WW site.

Well I'm leaving for maui on the 16th, so If it gets here on the 14th or 15th I will take her. I need to talk with david about having them install the alarm before I pick her up though. and of course I need to start talking financing :P.
Anyone know if mini is offering any finacing deals? If not I'll call chase up, who I have my bmw x3 loan with, and see if they have any deals
