Just got a call from Vanarama saying my Black MG ZS EV Trophy Long Range is expected end of May and would be registered as soon as it is in the UK in order to retain the grant, with delivery to dealer and then myself sometime in June logistics permitting. Unfortunately I had to cancel as even...

I don't, I have my actual MG order number (got it from Vanarama) and when I email MG direct for an update, it's always "on shortage". It was a Trophy LR ordered November 2021.

Interesting, surely they can't be taking any more MG orders of any trim level if they can only fulfil approx 50% of existing orders.

My update from Vanarama said that of the remaining 11,000 UK orders for various incarnations of MG ZS EV's, that only about 5,000 are likely to be fulfilled. There will be no SE trims fulfilled. Only Trophy trim with a mix of Long Range and Short Range and that the actual specifications and...

My update from Vanarama said that of the remaining 11,000 outstanding UK orders for various incarnations of MG ZS EV's placed with MG (not just Vanarama orders), that only about 5,000 are likely to be fulfilled. They were told there will be no SE trims fulfilled. Only Trophy trim with a mix of...

@Nibble86 what were the other options....any good offers on other cars?

It will be interesting to understand what options they will be giving each of us. Will it be the same as before, as I can't think what else they can offer. The previous options were (I think): 1. Continue waiting 2. Change the order to another vehicle 3. Cancel and pay £350 if you've already...

Is that an option only for the "connect" models I wonder?

I don't follow, was this an option in the car from the infotainment menu?

Nope, it went all by itself. Has occurred once again since, but then reset itself.

when did you order? I got told Late April about a month ago for a Nov order. BUT it really is a meaningless guess to be honest as even MG themselves won't go as far as giving an estimated build date.

Interesting point about hoping we cancel. They won't waive completely the charger install charge of £350 for those cancelling, which you could argue would be a good incentive to entice people to cancel that already have the charger installed, at what would seem to be a small loss to them if it...

Not such an attractive deal now that's for sure.

My MG ZS EV Trophy Long Range at 10k miles per year, free home charger, free 1 years insurance , cashback etc comes in at £300 per month (with one month upfront) over 36 months. So £10,800 for the lease, minus say £800 for a home charger which was free, minus the £250 cashback, minus the 1...

Not sure, as a bulk order not attributed to an end customer wouldn't have been eligible for the £2.5k government grant back in November which I would imagine would have been a big incentive. I suspect you have been allocated a cancelled order.

Don't hold your breath, I'm a mid Nov 2021 vanarama order and have my MG order number. As of today MG have said it's still awaiting build.

Is this an option in the infotainment system and/or app?

That's good news about waiving the £350 cost of the charger if you cancel.

Refer back to post number 219 in this thread from Vanarama CEO. It's very clear that if you wish to cancel the cost of the charger you'll need to reimburse Vanarama is £350. There were no conditions attached to this statement and it was not time bound.

Judging by @Spiderweb post above this is not the case. So apart from the ongoing delays that is a piece of good news!
