Demonstrators should be in the dealers on 22 Nov with orders arriving in December. The Press launch is on 11 Nov so there should be some early reviews thereabouts. In the meantime, how's your German?

no lights

Hi Miles - when you say you ordered 50 cars today, were they listed on your system as the new LR Trophy model or still the old model.

My local dealer said the new model wasn't on their MG system yet.

Thanks

 

[Miles Roberts CG]

They were on the system from lunchtime today. Listed as LR Trophy/Connect/SE

 

[DrTom]

Thanks Miles - back to the dealership tomorrow to get it sorted and get myself on the waiting list

Noticed on the spec sheet the maximum tow ball weight is 50kg, I was hoping it would be 75kg, the same as on the euro spec cars. Hope this is a mistake as my tow electric bikes and rack would be 57kg, so just over the limit.

 

[Olivarus]

Is it correct that the steering wheel on the face lift still doesn't adjust for Reach?

I'll ask technical dept to confirm.

Thank you Miles.

There's a kit available on AliExpress for the 2018-2021 ZS EV, but it costs about £400, and then you've got fitting cost on top.
