    Considering Switching from MG5 LR (old version) to the new ZS Trophy. Any thoughts, advice?

    I'd have looked into the MG5 but there are two issues for me. The Trophy has less range than my current non facelift at 235 vs 250 (not a lot I know, but some of my monthly drives push within 20 miles of that figure) AND currently, most importantly, there is no 0% finance on the MG5 (I never do...

    So is that the same for the new facelifted model? Still no regen on either?

    Considering Switching from MG5 LR (old version) to the new ZS Trophy. Any thoughts, advice?

    Have the LR for 2 years and it's been reliable and the range has been fine. Generally a decent car, but I really could do with some of the smart features in the newer models. My kids are coming out of the push chair phase so I can afford to lose a little space in the boot. But wondering if...

    Adaptive cruise control

    It does use kers for until it needs to stop when it switches to the normal brake

    Off peak charging cost

    Octopus agreed to put me on one of last year's Go Faster rates after a rather long faff to get changed over to them. So from February 1st I've got 25p day and 5p night from 21.30 to 1.30. I think I've been very fortunate as that day rate stands to be lower than the variable rate come April...

    MG5 LR Dashcam placement.

    They fit mine at the Halfords in Longwell Green although they looked a bit confused to begin with

    Octopus Go Faster tariffs ……

    I tried calling Octopus to switch just so I could get ahead on getting the smart meter ball rolling and their call centre staff were having none of it, didn't matter what angle I came from they refused to switch me. Then I remembered I had had an email conversation with one of their staff back...

    Auto main beam

    Yeah can someone say how I have it "OFF" and how I then turn it back "ON" because I am more confused than I was!

    Auto main beam

    Honestly mine seems to be a bit all over the place, sometimes it's on auto, other times it's not. I am sure I am doing it, but how I have no idea!

    The 'Three Cars' icon

    Definitely no noise on my brakes when being applied! You wanna get that looked at! I think it's definitely different strokes for different folks. For me, putting on MG Pilot on the motorway is the most relaxing driving experience I have had. I don't want to drive on the M25, it's full of...

    The 'Three Cars' icon

    Its definitely not meant to be used on a roundabout 🤣

    The 'Three Cars' icon

    It's not the most straightforward implementation to be honest. Once you're used to it, it becomes second nature.
