Any more red ones?? We've been waiting since end of Feb (we know others have waited longer, and others ordering after have already got their cars!).

Could see quite a few Reds

Considering you ordered in July and snagged a cancellation in August, that's a quick turnaround.

I may be mistaken, but I believe Leo Spirit docked a month ago... At a guess these cars have likely been sitting there for September onward registration.

Fingers crossed one might be ours.... Not holding out too much hope!

Plus the cost of getting an engineer out to recover it would prob be near the £500 mark as well so maybe not worth their while.

Sounds good but what happens when they say “ no we won’t come out and remove charger and refund your full deposit “ ?

That’s what I can see happening- “you can keep the charger, but we’re knocking £500 of the deposit”.

Whilst there is an element of wiggle room for goodwill, can’t see any firm eating the cost of several hundred (thousand?) chargers if people cancel en masse

Suppose If they already have a deposit they will probably just reimburse minus costs for the charger.

Of course and arguably I shouldn’t have arranged to have it installed prior to being absolutely sure it was en route

Colour? Similar situation but dealer reckons mine won’t be here this September - but had the opportunity to change to MG4 for end of delivery September. Although that ship may have sailed as I don’t want to buy the MG4 without seeing it in the metal

Battersea Blue

Thanks

Hi,

AFAIK they come in from Zeebrugge, because of Brexit. It would require a bit more work to import if they were coming in from the UK so they drop off the UK stock first, then go to Zeebrugge, load them onto a smaller ship and back to Ireland, this avoids the import problems.

Yes, yours are all the green ones?..

Interesting, thanks

Any ships enroute presently?

I guess you'd have to check a site like marinetraffic.com for car carriers on the Zeebrugge-Ringaskiddy or Zeebrugge-Rosslare routes. I think that's where most Irish cars come ashore.

 

[Tall Paul]

MG can’t even tell us what year an order might arrive
