I wasn’t expecting my ship to dock for a few more days but today ASK-MINI says my new MINI is “at the port awaiting shipping”. This sounds like its back in Southampton which clearly can’t be right so I am thinking this means its waiting to be transported to the VDC. Or maybe the ship really did turn around and dump it back home? Owners Lounge still says ‘en route’.
I’ve said before that my family live fairly near the docks in Southampton, on a couple of visits to see my mother in hospital we got a view of the MINIs stacked on the quayside waiting for the next ship. Too bad I didn’t have my camera.
[Update] Well, I listened again with a little less jet lag and the message actually says that the vehicle is at the port awaiting a shipping vessel and no shipping information is available. So who knows where it is!
