    Normal tyre wear after 18k miles?

    Finally getting round to rotating my tyres after 18k miles, and the fronts are so far gone they basically need to be replaced. Rears are brand new. Is this typical?

    The Ultimate MG5 "Real World" Energy Consumption Thread

    A cold month, and I felt I used AC a lot in the first half of the month - the dog was near constantly wet and in the boot. Dryer toward the end of the month but still often very cold on my commutes. This morning varied between -5 and -4 degC. Brr!

    The Ultimate MG5 "Real World" Energy Consumption Thread

    A big drop in efficiency this month for me. Lots of use of heating and A/C with all the rain we have had, not to mention the lower temps.

    We are into the 22nd page of this thread now, so just a quick reminder for folk who want to contribute to this thread on what the original intent was (copying from post #1): To contribute, you will need to reset your consumption display on the first of the month and post a pic of your...

    For sure, but there is also a clear correlation in the data posted here between monthly AVG speed and efficiency, so it cannot be discounted despite being individually flawed.

    The average facelift model efficiency reports here are about 9% below the pre-facelift reports. My theory on factors which contribute to this: The software is calculating efficiency in a different way. This is not confirmed, but I have not seen any comparison between the two on actual vs...

    A little cooler this month I think

    Facelift model data is interesting so far though it is sparse. I wonder if the pre-facelift is over-reporting / if the facelift is underreporting. There seems to be a resolvable disparity in the reported figures so far. Something to keep an eye on.

    I found this quite interesting. Playing with the data. A strong and consistent relationship between average speed and efficiency over the last four months, with the line sliding to the right as temperatures increase. I'm afraid Philb is abit of a July outlier at 20mph with 3.9miles/kwh

    A low mileage month for me. Mostly commutes and shuttling kids about. We were abroad for a week so fewer commutes than usual.

    EV Charging in Scotland Unfair

    Octopus night time tariffs are available in my part of Aberdeenshire (I happen to live next to a library with 4 CPS chargers...). Try giving them a call as it can be more successful than the website
