I found the same problem. Solved with these. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B09FPL5BWJ?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_image

Apologies for late reply and thanks for the information. I’ve put mine under the bonnet see photo. Seems quite comfy there and saves having to empty the boot!

Assuming that’s with the boot floor on the higher setting? I tend to have mine on the low setting as the dog crate fits better! Also, is the cable in a bag or just loosely coiled? I could have a look myself but it’s tipping down! 😂 On top of the cover? Doesn’t the cable slide about?

I can’t see how I can plug a timer into my wall charger. It’s easier just to start the charge at around 40% and charge over 4 hours at my Octopus Go rate overnight. Re the bulbs, not sure it’s so bad that it’s worth spending £50 on!

As far as I can see this is it possible on a pre-facelift MG5 which, although I am happy with it, is about as basic as they come; poor headlights, rubbish satnav et al…

I ordered a ZS Trophy through Vanarama in November last year for March delivery and was given a date in April. End of March had a phone call informing me that the car wouldn’t arrive until September. In August received another call saying it was likely to be April 2023. Cancelled the order and...

As I thought… Thanks for the replies.

MG5 Exclusive: I thought the battery heater function was for speeding up a charge particularly in cold weather or when the motor is cold but I would be interested to know if anyone uses it when driving, particularly now the weather has turned colder? If so, what affect does it have on range?

It’s in the handbook for my MG5 Exclusive.

I have a March 22 Exclusive and find the auto lights pretty useless and I was going to ask if there was a setting anywhere that could be altered. The only time the lights automatically operate is when it’s pitch black. Sometimes they don’t even operate in a tunnel.

I just paid the £350 for the charger and cancelled. By the time my ZS might arrive MG will have launched at least two newer models. I’m not sure what has gone wrong but whilst MG dealerships are receiving their orders, albeit slowly, to the best of my knowledge Vanarama haven’t had one of the...

When they rang me in August and said the car was unlikely to arrive until April 2023 I contacted a local MG dealership who had a 2022 MG5 Exclusive in stock. It had been a cancelled order. After a test drive, I cancelled the ZS and took the MG5 which, although not the car I wanted, I am happy with.

I find the acceleration and road holding from a standing start even in Eco phenomenal..!

That worked!

Indra have an addition to their charger which they call Pause. It ensures that charging stops at the end of the charge period. Doesn’t resolve the 80% issue though which remains guesswork…
