After a new MG, but not sure how long you'll have to wait?
Issues such as semiconductor chip shortages, shipping problems and sickness and isolation have affected the ability of manufacturers like MG to keep their production lines going over the last two years.
As such, all of the brand’s models are currently experiencing some delays.
However, some models are in greater supply than others, with flexibility around powertrains, specification and vehicle colour likely to see a vehicle in your driveway sooner.
Overall, according to Price My Car, the average wait time for a MG is now 42 days – compared to 56 days in January 2022.
The quickest arrival is the MG 3 with an average wait of 25 days.
Meanwhile, the worst-affected in MG's lineup is the ZS, with a wait time of 57 days.

"Global supply chain bottlenecks continue to impact delivery times across the automotive industry, regardless of this, we have a steady supply of vehicles across the range headed to Australian shores before the end of year and continue to work closely with our dealers and logistics team to deliver customer orders as soon as possible," a spokesperson for MG told us.
"We would like to thank our customers for their patience and assure them that we are doing everything we can to get them behind the wheel of their new MG.”
In June this year, MG said orders for new cars were set to be delayed, confirming supply issues had forced it to pushback delivery dates.
However in July, 7000 cars landed locally to improve the bottleneck – almost double its normal monthly shipment.
