You might have a hybrid XPOWER with the Extended Range battery fitted 😉

He’d probably allow them more leeway than Tesla now after his fallout with Musk.

Guessing it doesn’t fit because of the front motor, although the Cyberster GT has a bigger battery I believe on the same platform.

Really enticing deals considering it’s effectively a brand new model. They’ll probably do what they did with the outgoing model and change the APR to a higher rate when dealer discounts are applied.

Probably spoke on BabyBMW in the past 👍🏻

A 14 grand M135i is going to feel like an old car now, unfortunately. The tech is massively outdated - no Apple CarPlay on our models on iDrive 4 - so I’d chuck a couple of extra grand at it to get a nearly new XPOWER which handles similarly, has far better tech and a warranty. More power and...

A couple of pics of the old girls and invariably getting stuck in snow (the beast from the east in that photo!)

I loved our M135i and M235i, but honestly, I think the XPOWER is a better all round more useable car than both. The XPOWER actually reminds me a lot of the M135i, without a bit of the drama but with a lot more speed. Granted we’re talking ten year old cars here but my 2025 XPOWER actually cost...

Sorry you didn’t seem to get on with the XPOWER. I’ve had some decent past cars - mk 2 Focus ST, Volvo C30 T5, F21 M135i, F22 M235i, G01 X3 M40d, Jaguar I-PACE - to name a few and honestly, I find it really difficult to criticise the XPOWER for the price they go for. I paid more 10 years ago...

You got an absolute bargain! Enjoy and welcome to the forum.

You have to remove the front seats to take the centre console out?!

I had a really strange occurrence where my phone briefly showed up SAIC 1.0 under wireless CarPlay but hasn’t since. Now bearing in mind I’ve never connected my iPhone 17 to my car via USB cable and have only ever used a wireless dongle which shows up as ‘SmartBox_8387’ so I don’t know what was...

Decent little snippet. Interestingly, the MG UK brochure shows the new car (including the XPOWER) having a grey headlining, but that review car has a black headlining. For what it’s worth, I much prefer a black headlining. Brochure also states full LED rear lights now, but the demo cars I’ve...

That is a video of the IMs being built and the subsequent discussion of why they might be a higher insurance rating due to their inability to be repaired. Someone was referencing how a pre-reg standard IM5 is now roughly the same price as an MG4 Premium and showcased that video as a reason why...

Have I missed something? Isn’t the chassis exactly the same? I thought it was the IMs with a die cast chassis.

Stonking deals!

No vibes in my 2025 pre-facelift, so you have to assume the facelift won’t have any.

New XPOWER available to order through Carwow from £27,279. That’s a great price for the facelift model.

My 2025 XPOWER does indeed save the one pedal driving setting. For what it’s worth I have it disabled, though.

Yeah, great value and assuming it hasn’t been sat around for ages one of the very last built orange XPOWERS in the UK. My May 2025 built/November 2025 registered green XPOWER looks like it might be one of the last off the production line in that particular colour too, seeing as they’ve now...

Looks like they’ve dropped the two best colours for the car! - Volcano Orange and Matt Racing Green :) (Don’t mean to offend owners with other colours and actually really like the new blue and silver)
