Hello fellow Mini lovers!

I finally ordered my first Mini on the 12th and he is in production. I have not come up with a good name yet but I am working on it! I am so excited! My mini VAN days are almost over! I am trying to track it through production, but I sure wish it was easier to do on line! Anyway, now I am trying to plan for winter and get the best tires for that since it is around the corner here in Colorado. I am SO excited!

 

Thanks! Could you tell me how I post a picture and description of my Mini? I did something in a "garage". I just can't figure out how to make it appear!

 

By the way, your Mini looks fantastic!

 

Hi Everyone! Thanks for the warm welcome! I can hardly wait! I have called the Ask Mini number once hoping they would tell me where it was in the production line...no such luck. It is supposed to be completed by 10/21. It is happening so fast! I should have it by Thanksgiving! I plan to get some snow tires. I am from Massachusetts, so snow does not scare me much. We will be fine - and for those deep days, I will take my husband's 4Runner! It melts by noon around here! Denver has the best weather in the US! I can't seem to make my VIN number work though! I have tried it a few times in Apps and stuff just to see if it would work and it won't! It always comes up "not a VIN". Won't I need this for tracking it on the ship?

 

Hi! I found out from my MA that my Min is in the Body Shop! That sounds good to me! It must look like my Min by now! Gosh, this is crazy how it can be so exciting. By Thanksgiving I will be BEGGING to run errands! Imagine that! I still have one teenager left at home and I have been picturing how I will help with car rides. I guess that is why I am getting a roof rack! I'll just strap 'em up there! They're a tough bunch of athletes! They can take it! :lol:

 

My MA just told me my Min will be going the LOOONG way around South America to LA rather than through the Panama Canal! I live in Colorado so I think it is going to go to that port in LA and then to here. I thought they went through the canal! I guess I will show you pictures whent he Easter Bunny comes!!!!! :cryin:

 

That's a long time to have an addiction with no fix!!!! :frown2:

 

Well, My Min is waiting at the port for a ship! It must look so dang cute! I wrote my MA for information about the shipping line and specifics but I don't know anything yet. I have not found a shipping line that takes the long way around South America, so I cannot imagine! Seems like the Panama Canal or Galvastan would be a lot more fuel efficient anyway, but my order seems to have the code for the port is PHMPOA, which I think is in California. hmmmm.... I guess I should know something soon anyway.
