    The boat is out of tracking range right now but should be back on line Sunday or Monday. Delivery should be next weekend or shortly thereafter. Can't wait!

    trust me...your MA will know when it gets on the boat and which one before the OL or ask mini...thats what happened with me...it didnt actually say it was en route until it pulled out of southampton and it doesnt even say what boat...only the MA would know the particulars because you may not have a WW boat...it may get on a K-Line

    it depends on what priority your MINI is...if its a customer ordered/purchased its a Priority 1 Car so it will be first in line at the VDC and provided on if any extra's have to be put on if i remember they can shoot through a Pri-1 in 2-3 days

    Weather on Saturday doesn't matter. I will be in the garage with the new baby all day and into the evening. I'll be spending about 12 hours on the first (wheels off) detail.

    I am in love with Sprocket. He drives great. Did the exterior detail today and will take care of the interior tomorrow.

    I'm sure you can't wait. It was really tough waiting the 10 weeks for my JCW... stay strong, brother.

    Also... you're going to love it.

    This is the first car I've ordered in many years. We're very excited about this car and can't wait to take delivery.
