Default My MG ZS thread

Thought I’d post here seeing as we now own a SAIC MG ZS. We decided on a new ZS to replace the MINI Paceman that we had been having issues with since new. The ZS was chosen as my daughter absolutely loves the look of them and Likes to be different, it also fitted in well with the rest of the fleet and fitted our needs from a space point of view. We ordered a new ZS from out not so local 3 hours away dealer and waited for delivery. The car didn’t arrive when expected and we were told that it could possibly be early next year. We had allready waited 3 months and didn’t really want to wait longer. We had ordered an auto and it seems that most people had been ordering the auto over the manual which caused a shortage in cars available. Luckily after speaking to Ian at the sales centre at Longbridge he offered us one of three colour choices in the exclusive spec we wanted that he had just had delivered. We cancelled or previous order with the first dealership and Holly chose the white option and we arranged to collect it the following week. Ian was fantastic and really couldn’t of dealt with us any better and the whole process was extremely good. We arrived at Longbridge after a 5 hour drive and I was absolutely buzzing, I do like visiting Longbridge. After sorting the paperwork Ian gave us a tour and showed us the museum and a few other interesting parts of the site that I hadn’t seen in the past. The day ended with the obligatory photo shoot on the plinth by which point Holly had decided that no other car collection/handover could possibly top this one and kind of got the Longbridge vibe. We’ve covered just over 2000 miles and absolutely love everything about it. I’ve not had chance to take some proper photos so I will sort some phone photos for now...
