    Short term Medical license renewal

    Thanks for your reply, I’ve been waiting nearly 4 weeks, my licence doesn’t expire until the middle of May. I have heart failure resulting in high blood sugar which I treat with insulin so a bit going on. I’ve had the heart condition all my life and never suffering any kind of heat attack or...

    Short term Medical license renewal

    Has anyone had to renew their short term drivers licence recently. Every three years I have to renew my medical drivers license, and every time I sit waiting expecting the worse. The question is what is the average time from sending the paperwork off to receiving their license back. Regards Dave

    A friend of mine has just bought a Citroen C3 all electric and was advised on collection by the sales person to by a small jump start pack because the 12 volt batteries have been known to go flat when the cars have been parked up for several weeks. It’s not just MG ?

    Auto high beams

    I have s5se long range and I don’t seem to have the some of the issues that the trophy owners do, except the auto main beam which I have disabled. My wife’s Mokka is just as bad and I have turned that off also. It might be a good idea if we went back to a button on the floor. But most of you...

    40 miles of range 'lost'

    Just picked up on this thread. I don’t always reset the trip, so I thought I’d just nip out and do it. Estimated range was at 190 something now it’s at 233 after reset. Might try a reset on the wife’s ice Vauxhall Mokka and see if the fuel gauge goes up 😵‍💫

    MGS5 safety software fault - recall level problem? (reverse after hard stop; merged)

    No but the more manufacturers that could have a common problem maybe the sooner a fix can be found.

    MGS5 12V battery dead

    Just out of interest are most of the S5 the trophy spec Carson the forum. As a poor pensioner I could only afford the lower spec SE long range 😩 but having less toys I (touch wood) I don’t seem to have any problems as of yet apart from the crap auto main beam/ dip function and speed recognition.
