Good Morning,
Last I heard, it was 8 weeks if you wanted orange, and 14-16 for other colours or trims.
That sounds right as Darlington dealer said better chance of getting Orange than Red before Xmas. So maybe they do have an idea there is more Orange ones available?
But do we think the 8/14-16 weeks starts from the date of order, or from now? If you ordered mid August, so 6-7 weeks ago, was that when the order clock started, which would mean that it might not be too far off. I don't think anyone has the answer to this, even the dealers! The dealer I spoke to yesterday thought it would be from the date of the August order, but they really didn't have any information, they were just speculating as we are here!
That was from date of order (19th August for me, the day the books opened).
That sounds promising. My order was a week after yours, so fingers crossed we should get a car this year, even a non orange one.
Got similar info from MG Guildford, 8 weeks orange 16 for other colours, and when I asked that was from order. Though I guess it's aligned to the boats arriving so maybe better to think about it as which boat/batch/month of arrival rather than straight weeks from date of order directly
On that note, the next shipload seems to be on the "Grand Venus", due into Portbury on Oct 7th (Friday)
How do you know this?

New MG4 Shipment?
Anyone know when the next shipment of MG4s is due to arrive in the UK every dealer I have asked has given a different answer ?
I use VesselFinder to track the ships.

. ). Info from the 2 different local dealers is consistent in that the deposits taken for these sight unseen will be refunded if the buyer decides the do not want it, and they have a list on 1st come 1st serve to get the unwanted car, so anyone who has ordered and been told to expect Dec / Early Jan could be very lucky if they are very high on the order list to get one of these "unwanted". Looking at the poll on another thread, the Orange is not going to be as popular as the marketing people think, so I personally think if you want orange, you could be lucky and 'jump up' the queue, and those of us that have ordered Red / Grey would have to be exceptionally lucky. ( my crystal ball is not totally reliable )
Thanks for making me chuckle
Welcome to the White Trophy club. We ordered about 3 weeks ago and were told to expect Jan/Feb.
