Worth noting the 5 LR is cheaper to insure than the 5 SR due to all the pilot gadgetry added. The ZS has this as default and is likely a contributory factor. (my 5 lr/Sr quotes were 20% different)

Unavailable build slot is complete bs, MG don't build to build slots. They do seem to have changed tactics in the last couple of months, restricting orders, re-allocating stock orders to customers. They also seem to have stopped batch building vehicles they can't complete due to a lack of...

That's at least honest. Half the issue of mg China is they don't want to disclose anything that be perceived as negative. So just sit there saying nothing

Brother ordered a ZS Trophy LR through Octopus Salary Sacrifice this week, being told 1st Feb 2023... I told him not to bother with the connect as the extra features wouldn't used and the wait times were worse. Are they covering their arses or has the ZS waiting list got worse? He was...

Today price vs 9+ months price

Wonder if this is part of what happened to mine. That said they wanted 4900%, but I assume the fix is the new product. It's really crap that a deal you signed up to expires before delivery. At least MG honour the order price.

Rescinded the order acceptance maybe, rather than a 'recall' My understanding is there's entire car parks of 95% completed cars sitting in Shanghai, waiting in semiconductor related parts. Build slots are not a thing MG do. They batch build. Colours are a reason for a delay, they batch build...

That's usually the credit check data processing notice.

Did you get any paper at all? My 5 was done without a signature or deposit.

Leave it connected for a balance charge.

I would sooner trust an app governed by GDPR than putting my number on show in a public place. Sadly a lack of courtesy when it comes to refuelling and parking has always been a thing. I often grumble about people that block the Pay at Pump by going in and buying a frothy coffee and a weeks...

It's a pretty simple concept, but only 10k downloads on the Android Store. I'll be printing one off for my car at work, we have a limited number of charge points and I only need a few hours charge to cover my commute. The other charging etiquette issue seems to be people using Rapids then...

That's the depressing bit after making the decision to switch to EV. My vehicle has arrived 12 weeks later than the date I was told at point of order, which is at least £720 of diesel :sick: If you wasn't aware Morrisons are doing a 7p/litre off voucher for £40 of shopping, they run out on 6th...

"in the sea" is such a confidence inspiring bit of chinglish in the dealer order tracker.

Hopefully they're not playing the gamble that you're already on the hook and will wait, so are delivering 50% for existing orders and 50% for those that are new customers but wont wait. I think the reality is, demand has outstripped supply and at a rate completely unpredicted by MG, their...

Has to be installed by 31st March to claim the £350 back. Ordered mine in December, got an install date 10th March, 10 days after my car arrives.

Us Brits do love a queue, sadly, this hasn't been taken into account when the placement/design of electric charging points were installed. At a petrol garage it's clear who is next in line for specific sided pump/fuel type. At a services car park a line of waiting EV's is far from clear-cut.

At 90% I would be looking at the other perspective too. At 60% the OP would have been 20% away from the point that most say you should move on and free up the charger. I can see this situation coming up increasingly frequently though. You should never physically interfere with someones charge...

The dealer system is pre-configured to give a date x weeks in advance as a placeholder. If every day they check it advances another day, it's not a solid date. They can usually see loads of cars with the same date which is another giveaway. My dealer told me they've got a customer that's been...

Heroic Leader and Emerald Leader were ones to keep a eye on when I last checked. Both our of shanghai. The autosun runs between Europe and UK every couple of weeks so can be discounted. With Eunice blowing a gale up the Bristol channel I would expect that 28th Feb docking date to slip.
