My MGS5 Trophy LR has arrived!

Received the unfortunate news that the delivery is scheduled for June 26th which wasn’t the expectation set when we bought the car! Sadly I’ve already started the voluntary termination process for the ID.3 so we may need to cancel the order

what date were you initially given or hoped for?

A member of the senior team said he could get one within a week, and as we were leaving the salesperson we were with said to expect a call sooner rather than later so I anticipated to take delivery this week or next based on that

Picked the car up this afternoon and now trying to work through all the set up permutations, will keep me busy this weekend.

On the Compare the Markets site in the drop down box there’s MG and the one below is MG Motors, I found the MGS5 there. got several quotes; the AA was the cheapest.

Picked up mine this morning - I wanted Blue but in the end, I went for white cos I like how the black accents worked with it.

I had a drama with insurance too - my current insurer (LV) didn't have the MGS5 in their system to I had to cancel my MG5 policy (got a refund, result!) and I went with DirectLine in the end.

No MG official MGS5 car mats!!! I've kept my MG5 official boot liner just in case but it doesn't fit, unsurprisingly.

Congratulations looks good in the white, hope you enjoy your new car, certainly enjoying mine

There are mats available; I got the dealer to include them to seal the deal. They appear to be better quality than those I had in the ZS.

Our dealer didn't have any - deal is already done! I'll pick some up when they become available.

No MG S5 official car mats!!! I've kept my MG5 official boot liner just in case but it doesn't fit, unsurprisingly.

How does the boot size compare with the MG5?

How does the boot size compare with the MG5?

Very similar - feels slightly deeper (vertically) and the MGS5 has the adjustable boot floor so if you have that in the lower position, it feels much deeper than the MG5. You now have a hard boot space cover (secured by strings to the boot lid) compared to the MG5's pullback cover bar approach - I liked the MG5 soft cover itself but it was a right pain to remove it if you wanted the extra height in the boot.

Have you managed to get insurance yet? I have been trying for the past week. MG only released the cars ID number on Wednesday. I have posted a detailed explanation this morning on the forum.
I have had a MGS5 waiting to collect but 15 insurance companies didn’t have it listed. Two gave me a quote on the MG5 not the S5. WATCH OUT. Regards Bob

Got Admiral. The comparison sites have it as an option but might explain the lack of quotes i got. Paid comparable price to my MG4.
