I’m of mind to switch to the Tesla Y AWD now that it costs the same today as the RWD did this time last week

I’m due to take delivery of a RWD Tesla model Y in early March ( ordered mid November when MG told me i probably wouldn’t ever receive the ZS I ordered January 6th 2022 ) Was a nice surprise to discover yesterday morning that I’m getting the Tesla circa 6 k cheaper Here’s me here, price would...

Landrover always receive positive reviews by the motoring press because Landrover is a British institution, criticising one is akin to speaking ill of the royal family,here in Ireland ( or Australia for example)no one would ever dream of saying a Landrover discovery is superior to a Toyota...

I’d have chosen the same colour had I chosen to buy the MG4 ( love it in volcano orange )

Add to that the Irish government are reducing the EV grant next july so now was a good opportunity to buy this particular Tesla, we have two cars at all times so perhaps my wife or I will get an MG down the line , we don’t really need the big diesel SUV we have as the main family car so the...

Arrival in February

Ordered a Tesla model Y this evening, the entry level model has dropped by 10 k in Ireland in the past month due to the price reduction by Tesla reducing price to under 60 k which then makes it eligible for government grant, the ZS was now unavailable, the 4 too small for what I want it for and...

The model Y is certainly better value than the ID4 or EV6 right now

My dealer is due to have the 4 in next week but an interesting development has me asking myself do I want to trust MG when they talk of February deliveries of the MG4 ? In Ireland the price of a Tesla model Y has dropped 10k in price ( 5 k drop to under 60 k triggered the 5 k EV government...

My dealer left a voicemail to say he will have the 4 in three weeks, I’ll probably wait to also view the new 5 before deciding which to go for, this won’t be main family car so size not crucial factor

Letter received

I also follow a motoring site in Ireland, several others received a letter yesterday stating that MG have no idea when ( or if at all ) the ZS will be available, letter came from MG Ireland which is operated by Frank Keane in Dublin

If the MG4 boot is very small , that’s it off the list for me as I plan to provide a weekend Hackney service, had to cancel purchase of a Kia E Soul as boot was too small to pass regs

No MG 4 in dealerships yet in Ireland, to those who have test drove the 4 , how spacious is it, are we talking Ford Focus size ?

He said he’s been told that they have no idea when the next batch of ZS might arrive but it certainly won’t be before February, I don’t know how he benefits from lieing? , I like the look of the new 5 anyway , the 4 looks even better, as long as it’s not too small , I might opt for it
