Hi All,
Finally got the good news. Received a call from MG Ireland to say that the car is on a boat on its way to me and there is definitely one for me as its been allocated by MG Ireland, and its the same spec that I ordered. I emailed the dealer and it was confirmed as well, due in mid\late November. Home charger application has started. Its part of the deal with the car for a free charger, you pay the installer for the charger and then claim it back from the SEAI.
Now I just need to find out, if the car arrives in late November, probably take a week or two (or three) to get from port to dealer? then there is no point getting the car registered as 222 as this would put it into December. Need to talk to the dealer and see if they can hold it and register it as a 231 and i can collect 1st available day in January 23! I cant see it being a problem and i dont mind waiting another month if it means a 231 reg.
Was also out today at the Ideal Homes Show in RDS and MG were on display (from Brian Reynolds Drogheda), had an MG ZS EV and also the MG4. The MG4 is a great looking car, its the first time I've seen one in person, and if I didnt have the ZS confirmed then I'd probably consider changing. We also took a look at the GWM Ora Cat, they had 2 cars on display there as well, the funky cat and the GT (Due out in 23 sometime), was also very impressed with them, look like a quality build, great spec and its a much bigger car in person, about the size of a new Clio, if not slightly bigger.
