    Vanarama Issues

    That was exactly my justification for getting one. I reckoned I would save between £60-£80 a month on fuel which offset the higher monthly payment (I was originally looking at about £250 a month for an ICE vehicle). I can’t get on an EV tariff at the moment, and expected cost per Kw/h of...

    Was a 3yr deal so approx £2.3k. But as you say, still an ouch!

    Vanarama Issues

    I cancelled today! 🙁 They wanted to send revised paperwork with the increased cost - I declined. Car isn’t likely to appear this year and I’m not paying any extra. I held-off getting the charger fitted, so don’t need to worry about that side of things. Disappointed I won’t be getting my white...

    Vanarama Issues

    Received my call at the end of last week. Basically advising late Q4/Q1 ’23 for delivery. So if car doesn’t show up by mid December there would be a price hike of about £66 a month! Can’t see it arriving before then and I ain’t paying any more so it’s highly likely I’ll cancel. That, coupled...

    Vanarama Issues

    Vanarama still haven’t given any explanation as to why cars ordered through other dealers (post Jan/Feb 22) have arrived, yet not one of their cars has arrived and are now being delayed for another 7-8 months. Also no explanation as to why they are quoting the same timescale for an order...

    MG ZS EV Shipping Updates

    Some thought/questions surrounding this whole MG/Vanarama/Greehaus debacle: Why have none of the 400+ orders been fulfilled yet, when others who ordered later have? When exactly was the order placed? If Vanarama want people to cancel, how are they delaying the cars? It’s not like they can just...

    MG ZS EV Shipping Updates

    Jeez - that’s the exact same as I ordered through them, except it was early December! Can’t see 1 month making much difference, though it’s Vanarama so who knows! Know what you mean though, that’s too long to wait really, isn’t it? I’m running a shed at the moment but was only planning on...

    MG ZS EV Shipping Updates

    That’s interesting to hear! Did you get that info from Vanarama? They definitely don’t have a clue what’s going on!

    Vanarama Issues

    Same order as mine, only I placed mine early December ‘21. Thanks for starting this thread, maybe we can keep this one updated with all the non-existent Vanarama deliveries. Keeps it out of the shipping updates thread. 👍🏻

    Cancelled order today - No confidence in anything MG/Arnold Clark can do.

    Shocking customer service. Typical Arnold Clark. I went into the Linwood branch to take a look at the car and pick up a brochure, place was empty and no one came near me, even though I was in there about 5 mins looking over the whole car! Even had my wife with me, so it looked more like we were...

    MG ZS EV Shipping Updates

    Vanarama now quoting 3-4 month for delivery on their website for same model I ordered in December ‘21. Who knows where they’re getting that timescale from! I’m refusing to cancel mine too - same deal now is £140 p/m more!

    MG ZS EV Shipping Updates

    I was thinking about this today - as I’ve mentioned before, when I ordered my car through Vanarama I was told that if I paid a couple of £ more a month, I would have one of the ‘already pre-ordered’ cars. If I wanted to pay less, it would be a factory order car with up to 12 month wait. So I’m...
