I hear September launch so I'm guessing demos won't get to dealers until a week or so before?

Your use of 'chargers' was ambiguous. Chargers can mean one bank with many chargers or multiple charging banks. Hence why I asked for clarification.

I assume you confirmed the charger was an ‘open to all’ Tesla charger? Only some are open to everyone.

I would add the MGS5 will use in car navigation for speed limits too which come from google maps. I don’t know if you can disable the camera detection though.

Yeah, had it with a bollard at a charging station. Rather than close so I could pull forward a little, it tried to open again. Luckily you can move the car with the tailgate open. Also happens with closing. Rather than opening to allow you to move the obstruction, it just stays where it is so...

Lol. Yeah. When my only real grumble is pressing one button twice when I get in the car, its pretty good.

So had the MGS5 for two months and now 2000 miles. The below is pedantic in places but my summary is overall I do enjoy and like the car. Short review; Great economy vs the MG4. Nice to drive some MG4 bugs/quirks remain in the software. Longer review; Economy is at least 5% better per Kwh...

Thanks.

Where’s this from please?

The tool holder section is held down with some clips over bolts. I imagine the bolts are fixed to the car frame so even if you remove the clips and tools tray, you are likely left with two bolts in the way.

Be careful not to invalidate your insurance. The manual makes no mention of the roof rails being able to hold any load which is a bit of a cop out by MG. In previous MG cars the manual said whether the car could handle roof bars or not.

MGS5 is rear wheel drive so tyres won't last longer

As I said, not interested in why would they. I asked if anyone had managed it. Move along.

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has successfully managed a launch control start? I've tried the MG4 method (OG and current) but no luck, power creeps to 50% in about 3 seconds and then resets to 0%. Settings for 50%; ESC disabled (got me to 50% rather than 30 something) Regen level 1 or 3 Sport...

Yes, it takes up about 1/4 of the sceen like a pop up. Just need to bare in mind the camera is in the wing mirror.
