Any Orange Trophy orders still outstanding?

[xcyber]

Talked with my dealer today and he still didnt have any news about my Orange luxury car ordered in september is build or on the way yet.. But he did have information and win-number about one diamond red that was confirmed incoming norway in the end of this month that I could take.
Ended up canselling the orange one and took the diamond red with delivery middle of next month

Got a call from my dealer a couple of days ago. Got a delivery date now of end of June! (Ordered mid December, so 16 week estimated lead time has turned into about 26!)

Posted in the shipment thread but got a call on Tuesday that my Orange Trophy had turned up at the dealers, finance stuff signed and picking it up on Tuesday 4th April, ordered 12th December so 16 weeks I think that is... crazy that others are taking way longer!

Just been told by my dealer that mine will be end of June beginning July so must be making a batch of them. Originally ordered 20th October and quoted 8 week delivery if I ordered Orange lol. Since then ditched original dealer as they did not communicate at all and only kept saying TBA when I eventually got through. New dealer promised they could get one by end of April, now end of June lol. Don't believe a word they say anymore. Yet previous post says his has arrived so obviously some dealers doing better than others. Shame they are not building to order like mentioned on another thread.

Note that newly built 2023 cars will no longer have the black roof.

Ordered early Jan, email with expected dealer handover date of 28th June in late Feb and had email couple of days ago saying it's been built from dealer.

Picked up mine today as previously posted, handover went fine, got the app sorted out (eventually, bit flaky but part of that was my mobile reception before connecting to the dealer wifi) and all looks good so far... Planning a long-ish trip to see family tomorrow so jumping right in ?

When was the second order placed out of curiosity? Hopefully it's not that long for you...

Don't think some of the colours will look as good without the black roof, it was a nice contrast

I don't like the sound of that. I will know more at the end of the month when mine should arrive.

You could always get it wrapped.

I ordered my Orange Trophy at the beginning of December. Originally told March. At the beginning of April I was told by the dealership that it has been built, and to expect it to take 8 weeks to ship. So I'm looking at a June/early July delivery.

Would love to know which ship it is on so I could watch its progress!

Hopefully the Boheme which is supposed to leave Lianyungang 18th May and arrive in Bristol 18th June. I also hope mine is with it as I was told mine is built awaiting shipment. The only one I can see before that is the Tugela which left 9th April to arrive Bristol 11th May from Shanghai but I doubt it's on that one.

 

[MuffintopDude]

Ordered 11th March, advised to expect delivery December possibly January 2024. Orange being the most popular colour, made in batches of 1000 at a time of each colour.

The galaxy ace is docking tomorrow morning

There is just a chance ours might be on the Figaro which left Lianyungang 24th April expected Bristol 21st May

My orange is supposed to be on that.

I think, in fact I'm sure i saw a French you tube of an Orange lux with an orange roof - & with the UK My23 not having black now, it makes me wonder if it was only a UK special to begin with ?

Certainly had a black roof on the German MG website, not sure about now.

Lucky you, still I've waited since October for mine a little longer won't make much difference, shame about the 23 models not having the black roof as I think it looks better with it.
