I tell you what is very cheap second hand - those GMW Ora Cat things. They don't rapid charge quickly but that isn't an issue for a local run-around.

Further evidence for my theory that RRPs are there for valuation/tax reasons (to calculate salary sacrifice or similar) and aren't really what manufacturers intend to charge for the cars.

They are quite big aren't they? The Hyundai Kona is the same battery etc. but smaller size overall. Could be worth considering if really avoiding an MG.

I think it is more that they have higher fire standards, not that they are banning on the basis of chemistry directly. Chemistry wouldn't matter if it met the standards.

Yeah, but it doesn't matter much because our human activities don't generally impact the total amount of water vapour in the atmosphere. Water is just cycling and moving around all the time. Increasing CO2 and methane, though, is making a major difference to the atmosphere.

Well make them aware! Giant MGEV poster on full view

Don't you present an MG podcast? I don't think that you need to worry!

He might be alright, but they don't do well in hot (especially) and cold. The battery just cooks itself if it is undergoing a lot of activity (fast charging or continuous driving) If he just drives around locally in UK weather he might be ok.

How small is 'small' It sounds like you want a 2nd hand MG4 SE to me!

With You Tube you can get a link that starts at the second you want. If you right click on the window it gives you the option for a url "at the current time" or something like that. Handy for pointing people towards particular points in long videos.

All these threads, its getting confusing what is in what! Such is the way of things I suppose, with human conversation.

This is the thread for the Urban, which does have a heat pump. However, the UK brochure does not say anything about a heat pump for the "new old" MG4

Might be more of an issue for you in Scotland but I wouldn't worry about it down here.

How do you tow an EV? Does it have to go on a trailer? Or with only the non-drive wheels on the road?

Actually it gets better, looking at the brochure the LFP pack charges very slightly quicker than the NMC packs. 154kw max vs 144kw max. Saves one minute on the 10-80% time so not a huge difference, but still, better than the old SR which has a much slower DC charging rate than the NMC models.
