Absolute bargain!

Slick! How much was fitting? Did it put your insurance up by much?

027 and 075 are the same except for the height. The height of the 027 is 190mm the height of the 075 is 175mm. What's the height of your current battery?

MG5s seem a bit fussy over the 12v supply, so personally I'd go for a premium silver battery from Yuasa. A marginal increase in cost for a battery that'll probably outlast the car!

In the peak of summer, I've fleetingly seen 90kW. I don't seem to get close to that in winter though, sadly.

That's really helpful! Thanks, gdog.

Thanks for the images, Jomarkh. It's both interesting and troubling to see what a stone chip can do in terms of rust. Paulie68, thanks for the more detailed explanation. I hadn't realised the perforation warranty was only half that of other recent car models. I'm hoping to keep mine for the...

Do you have any pictures of these? Is it coming from the seal between the window and the bodywork? I think the MG ZS saw quite a few rust problems. Rumour has it that the cavities aren't wax filled and a new thin film zirconium treatment process was used for underbody rust proofing, which is...

Goodyear Vectors and Michelin Cross Climates have similar performance on everything except total number of miles (wear rating) on the tyre reviews sites. I do a lot of miles, so I chose the Vectors. https://www.tyrereviews.com/Compare/Vector-4Seasons-Gen-3-VS-CrossClimate-2.htm

Awesome, thanks for the heads up. I'll keep that in mind.

Thanks for the thoughts and recommendations. Bilt Hamber seems to be the easy choice. It out performs Dinitrol in every performance test I've seen and is cheaper. It's just difficult to work out how much is needed for an MG5. Guess I'll just buy a few cans and hope for the best! Thanks.

I'm looking at applying some of the Bilt Hamber rust proofing products to my pre-facelift MG5. Does anyone know how many spray cans I'll need? Aside from the brakes, are there any surfaces I shouldn't spray or cavities I shouldn't fill?

My local didn't even manage to wipe a bit of bird crap off the rear wing. Sounds like Fraser's are knocking it out of the park!

Thanks guys, I'll take a look.

Sadly they weren't willing to do it at the same time as my service/MOT. Seems a bit ridiculous to have to pay for this, but I guess it helps to identify the dealerships that are willing to go the extra mile.
