“Loaded On Vessel”
Prompted by AprilWhine, I checked the Wallenius Wilhelmsen cargo tracking website today, and GPMINI is on the Liberty (which apparently used to be called the Faust)!

GPMINI is part of a group of 39 other GPs, presumably all headed to Monterey … they are expected to land on US soil at the end of this month …
UPDATE: The MINI USA owners lounge also knows that GPMINI is “en route”:

WORKS GP is also onboard with yours (and the others) The Liberty left Bremerhaven on the 15th, Southampton tomorrow, and arrives in New York on the 30th. Cutting it a little close for the trip across the US to Monterey.

Yeah, it worked!

Apparently, we can track the Liberty too – I was never able to track GBMINI#2 or #3 …

Just checked, we’re on the Liberty too. I would be surprised if the 39 cars on the Liberty weren’t all headed to Monterey.
This also confirms the number to be delivered there.

When is the Liberty scheduled to arrive in NJ?
todd (2006/07/22 @ 4:16 pm)
Don’t know the exact split yet but the 40 GPs are *all* the GPs for the initial deliveries at both Monterey and Lime Rock.
The shipping data confirms info I was told a month or so ago.

Peter,
According to WW, at the end of this month.
Todd,
Interesting! Thanks

;-( I went to the site and entered my VIN under Auto cargo and got the following:
No tracking information is available for the Cargo ID you entered
Have I done something wrong?

Yea, we are on an Atlantic cruise.
