Production Week 11 Support Group

ASK MINI just told me that my HB/W S has been bumped from week 10 to week 11. Kind of explains why the "Scheduled for Production" status hasn't changed. March 15th the nice lady told me. I can't wait!!! Anyone else actually planning how to get through the break in period. I might have a small road trip to help me through the miles otherwise I would just go crazy.

My car today went to the status of 'Body Shop'. Just a few more days until it's done.
For the break in, I'm planning to take a day or two off work when it arrives, and drive around the mountains around LA, to get some miles on it where I can vary the engine speed. I only commute a couple miles to work, so I need to do something besides wait for the weekends.

Boy, not a lot of activity on the week 11 thread. My wife's mini is supposed to be complete 3/19, but I still haven't heard any of the "in production" statuses like Body Shop or Paint Shop. I assume with a 3/19, we are week 11 (the week 12 people said we were). Anybody else getting good updates?
As far a break-in trips, we are planning to go to Cincinnati (from Chicago area) for Easter, and are hoping to have it by then to get the break-in mostly done. If not, we might have to come up with a trip.

Not too busy, just no access to the internet since Wednesday. My can has been "Awaiting Transport" since I first checked early Friday. Is it strange that I am fearing the attack of a giant squid monster on which ever ship my baby gets put on? I got back to my place late from a long trip, so I'll give ASK MINI a call tomorrow morning to find out when she will be on a boat and which boat and so on and so forth. Go anti-sea monster technology!

I'm with you, deuce, same status, waiting for a boat. I just missed the boat that left the 19th. The next 2W boat going to the port near me (west coast of US) leaves the 27th. I left a message with my MA to let me know what carrier it goes on, and the bill of lading number, but haven't heard anything yet.

Hi, stargate 823. Pleased to meet you! Yes, I purchased from MINI of Towson in mid February, so it hasn't been too long of a wait compared to some on here. I'm for all intents and purposes from Baltimore,Technically I'm on the outskirts of the city but..... That Hyper Blue is dazzling is it not! Actually I though briefly about Chili Red and White but my present car is red, and the two before that were also red. It's great hearing from someone in Maryland with a similar car, although mine doesn't have all that horsepower etc.! Well so long for now. Shouldn't be too much longer for us!

Hi stargate823. I live in Baltimore and,yes I did buy from MINI of Towson. Nice bunch of folks. Nice to hear from someone close by with a similar car, although yours is quite a bit fancier and has all that umpf! My last three cars have been red so I opted for blue this time, and what a lovely blue it is! It shouldn't be much longer. Maybe first week in April, do you think? By the way I sent a similar message previously but don't know where it went!
