Delivery superstition

[slmorgan42]

Mine was a really odd one. I have not been into my actual dealer since I ordered in March. I have had a phone call here and there and also some emails. From the correspondance I have had I was told an expected delivery at the end of September and that it was supposed to have been on a boat in August. Well here we are then at the end of September and I've heard nothing at all about if it had arrived to port or unloaded etc.. So on Monday I thought I am just gonna pop into the dealer and see what's what. I got the old no further information except what I was already told previously and that they have just had transporters turn up with vehichles on them randomly. I said my thanks and headed home. 5 hours later I get a call saying a transporter randomly turned up that afternoon and my car was on it! Picking it tomorrow

Still praying this happens to me.

My altar to the delivery gods.
Let’s see if they are listening to my prayers.

Sadly my spanner praying has not worked. Still no car :-(

Looking at the tracker my spec TLRC white has been coming through to a good few lucky people. So there is still hope lol

I’ve had to get new tyres today, surely with that cost the car gods will come through for me

I already have a 10mm spanner but no car. Nearly a year. I bet if it ever arrives before thousands of MG4s I will be out of the country getting the bums rush to collect. MG head office just blocks contacts. Very poor customer service. They evidently do batches so why is mine not here when I have seen several same colour and spec running around?

My diesel is now due mot, service, tax, parking voucher renew. Going to be about £1200. That said and done i would still be happy if my EV turned up the next day lol

Same no phone call yet on holiday in November in the US so my dealer will probably ring me while I'm on the Harry Potter ride when I can't answer

Reckon it was the bad tempered, impulse purchase of a used Zoe after another 'its still TBA' call with the dealer in October that tipped it. Call last week to say mine is still TBA but if I'm OK with red then I can have one in January thanks to a cancellation

All sounds like the bran tub 'Lucky Dip we used to have in the 50's
