Yesterday I phone MINI customer services who gave me my vin number and the good news is that it's being built in Oxford and production started on my car yesterday the guy informed me that it had just gone through the paint process,so I have a few questions.........

1..How long does it take to build the car from start to finnish.

2..How long generally does it sit around for once it's built before it's delivered to the dealers.

3..checking the spec sheet from http://www.bmwarchive.org I cannot find the heated windscreen option yet it's on my copy of the order form.

My MINI was built on the 5th November and the dealer said it will be ready for collection from 17th November. We are having couple of things fitted at the dealers so this pushed the date back a few days. Will be arranging to pick it up on Friday 21st Nov.

Dealer advised this morning the car just arrived at their Newbury compound, which is just up the road from hook where the dealer is.
