    Whoops Hoorah.

    My wife pulled in too close to a wall and scratched the front wing of our ZS. Can you imagine how pleased I was that it wasn't me? 😂

    Balance charging

    We only have a granny charger which serves us well, most of the time. ZS Trophy LR gen 2. 23 plate. A balancing charge at "granny" rate takes a very long time if we take it down to as near-zero as possible before going up to 100%. Does anyone know, (and I have looked!) if it is necessary to go...

    In Praise of the ZS

    Off topic in a way - Jerry, what trailer tent do you have? We're thinking of getting one, two berth. Thanks.

    Charging Speeds

    We've been using a granny charger with our ZS since we got her a few months ago. We had an outside socket wired straight to our consumer unit as we'd heard scary stories (friends badly affected their house electrics leaving their charger plugged in for extended periods). We use rapid chargers...

    Symbol inside the cupholder

    Hi all. I've searched on the forum and in the manual but can't find any reference to what the symbol is (open padlock and WiFi, I think) in the cupholder - anyone know? Cheers.

    Not charging with granny cable

    I have a 22 plate ZS trophy LR. We have an MG granny charger which is our only means of charging at home. (Touching wood furiously) it has worked brilliantly for us for the last few months since we got the car. Around 15% charge per night at 9p/kWh. It's a shock when we have to use public...

    Just done this and received confirmation. What a great wheeze!

    In Praise of the ZS

    Here in sunny Cornwall we don't have rain so it's not a problem. 😂. To be fair, after an incredibly wet couple of months and driving through torrential rain for a couple of hours at a time more than once ours has stayed remarkably dry. Touch wood.

    In Praise of the ZS

    I guess it is the nature of online forums like this that one tends to see more complaints than praise. I thought I would try to address the balance by saying quite simply I think the our ZS Trophy LR is a fantastic car! Firstly it's really comfortable, the seats adjust well enough for me and my...

    Suspended EV state

    Is it worth grabbing a bucket? 😉

    400 mile day....

    I'm finding the need to top-up often coincides with the need to empty! 😅

    Sat Nav

    Our sat nav suddenly froze today ( I'd done the dead reckoning bit weeks ago and that had worked). Got home and found how to reset it. This forum wins again!
