I wonder how many ZS's with sky roof were actually made? Maybe when we come to sell, we could call them a limited edition and ask for more money. 

This has been mentioned before in other posts and I totally agree.I wonder how many ZS's with sky roof were actually made? Maybe when we come to sell, we could call them a limited edition and ask for more money.![]()
Offers invited for Moby in 2026 (once I’ve bought him off the leasing firm)The pan roof was certainly one of the things that drew me to the ZS. When I get in cars with black headlining, it feels so claustrophobic in comparison.
A definite bonus if it makes the car more sought after and valuable in the future.
Where is your dealer finding these spare cars fromWe just turned down our 3rd TC. We ordered Red in March '22. We were offered Black a few weeks ago (looks like an undertaker's car) then today a Blue TC and another Black.
On the "infinity" scheme as it turns out, you get Red for no extra cost, so no deal with us with no finance or PX. We continue to play MG pontoon, Red or bust. In our case Red or Kia, depending on when the 6000 order limit kicks in.

The cars are cancellations I believe. There is no point in broadcasting their name as the list of outstanding orders is long at this dealer and they will have gone to other waiting customers by now. At least they are giving us waiters first dibs on the cancellations and have been fair about things with regular updates for the past year.Where is your dealer finding these spare cars from
Im not going to get too emotional about it- by the time my lease ends he’ll have done circa 100k…I wouldn't get your hopes up.
VWFS sold our cars directly to BCA who then offered us a settlement figure on our leased SEAT Leons that was practically retail price and we were 20-30k miles under our lease rates thanks to Covid, Mat leave and a job change for me.
Ford didn't even offer us a settlement figure. Years ago Lombard would only sell a leased car to a third party although that was basically a fire sale as they were leaving the leasing sector.
The unpredictability of being able to buy your car is annoying. I bought my first lease car off of Lombard via my cousin purchasing it first in 2010 as being in the construction industry things were still iffy so didn't want to get another lease.Im not going to get too emotional about it- by the time my lease ends he’ll have done circa 100k…
Those back windows look tinted, did it come with this already done??Our Red one arrived on Thursday so we've collected it today!
Driven over 100 miles to visit family already, glad to have finally collected both after waiting so long.

The right to buy it (or not) is probably in my contract. Currently undecided, probably depends on what’s available when the time comes.The

Then I rather fell for my Focus ST in 2014 but wasn't able to buy it. Similar with our Leons but they offered us a silly price to buy.
In case anyone thinks bulk buying gets you special treatment we had ten plus ZS's arrive this week for company car drivers and they were ordered in early February last year! Not the worst on here by a long shot but not exactly speedy service.
That is shocking! Surely you ought to be one of the 8! I don’t suppose they told you if the lucky 8 have waited longer than you?13 months and still waiting here in Ireland. MG Ireland have any information. There are 8 zs ev's coming here in May they told me, and Im not one of the 8. They said it could be next year!
Yes its shocking and unacceptable. No they said they dont know when they ordered that they just get notification of cars coming with a name beside themThat is shocking! Surely you ought to be one of the 8! I don’t suppose they told you if the lucky 8 have waited longer than you?
Yeah this is typical and I think you will see in previous posts that an average wait time is approx 12 months although some have waited longer, but for reasons that are not known some waited less than 1 year and received the car spec and colour they ordered. Some also managed to secure a cancellation albeit a different colour. ? your car arrives soon I know 12 months was long enough for me to wait for mine.Yes its shocking and unacceptable.
