R60 2012 Countryman on order!
#501
My car has been at the VDC for a week. I just got an email from my MA and she says that the car won't be here for three weeks!?! What!!!! I am not having anything added that should delay it. Owners Lounge said it was delivered to the dealer. Dealer says it has not checked in at the VDC yet.

My CMS has the same birthday as I do!(11.08) It's been sitting at the port since 11.14, seems like it missed the shipping vessel on 17th coz 1800-MINI still says it's "waiting for shipping vessel". Does anyone live in NYC or east coast got his/her car built around the same time? I hope it will be loaded on the vessel leaving next week, finger cross!

Courage isn't showing as one of WW Fleet coming to NY?
Topeka, Don Juan & Tristan are the next 3 scheduled to make port in NY.

You may also want to check the K-Line schedules.

Supposedly they no longer use K-Line to ship the MINI to the east coast. I have heard that from many different sources including 2 dealers. Looking at the current WW vessel schedules, almost every ship from Germany is stopping in Southampton and most of the newer car/truck carriers have capacity in excess of 6000 vehicles so I think there is validity to WW as the main carrier. My 2 cents.

It takes a while after the ship leaves for its manifest to update. Don't lose hope yet. It may take anywhere from 8-24 hours for the cargo manifest to come up. I'm hoping mine got on the Courage this morning, but either I didn't make it or its cargo manifest isn't updated yet, so I feel your pain! Check later tonight and then again tomorrow. You may be surprised!

+1.MIne was released to shipper today and I am hoping it made it aboard the Mignon. Hate to think of it sitting there waiting for the Dec. 3 ship.
I shouldn't be too upset though as I took delivery of my MINI Convertible Thursday. We've already bonded from the drive home.
Nice to have a MINI back in the garage. I sold my Clubman a week ago and it felt so strange to be down to 1 car. On the trip down and back the CUBE (my other car) had its windshield broken twice with rocks flipping up from other vehicles. Already had a new windshield installed. I was just happy it didn't happen to Mad Maxx.
Now the wait for the Countryman will keep me awake at night.
