Back from the run over the weekend. I used the magnetic tape, and the plate stayed in place quite happily over the entire run, over 500km, thanks for the suggestion Ian Key 😋

My 4 replaced a 2017 MG 6 GT turbo. Here in Western Australia, the First SAIC MG franchise opened in 2018, and among their opening stock were the last 12 MG 6s to be imported to Australia. I took up a novated lease on an Essence model and had great fun with it until last month, when I ended the...

Mine arrived from EVCars, remove the cover, fit the ball head bolts and it slides over them. Easy to remove and makes it frunkier. Or frootier. The struts were a little bit more involved, mostly removing the clips on the bonnet liner, but now done. Info from MG Australia suggested no warranty...

Have ordered a set with the struts. The struts were a definite buy, even if I decided against the frunk as an option. I'm thinking that the struts that are being provided may be better than the AliExpress ones. They have been sent and are somewhere on the Nullarbor now.

Cabansail - a pop-up opened on the site and gave a 10% discount code.

On sale at the moment, plus a 10% discount for a first-time customer, AUD $269, which is not bad, including the gas struts as well.

Sort of the reverse of the old "Le Mans Start" where drivers ran to their cars and jumped in.

Then I could charge people for rides - sounds good

Lots more info there ... I'll try underneath the number plate to start, and if it causes a problem, I'll either magnet it to the bonnet or stick it in the windscreen (which does seem to be most people's fallback.

It runs every October and is open to non club members as well as members of the three WA clubs, always great fun. Okay, not systems I'd like to have non-functioning - looks like on the bonnet it is.

Hi decrep, Alas no, Start point is Dwellingup and then down to Bridgetown for two days.

Thanks Clive, really enjoying the forum. Unfortunately can't use the rally plate to replace or obscure the license plate as we're on public roads. Actually a fun run, not a full blown rally, but thanks Hi Reintje, Thanks for that, I was orange or red and the dealership only has orange Essence...

Thanks Salty, looking forward to being part of things :) Thanks Caramaddy, I have tried there and may get some info but although our local clubs have a few members with MG4's they don't appear to be active at all.

Morning all! I'm Mark, and I'm a new member here. I'm waiting on the delivery of my MG4 here in Perth (Western Australia), Volcano Orange. Essence 64 (Trophy 64) on lease, replacing an MG 6, which I've been leasing since 2018. I've also owned a 2002 MG TF 135 for ten years now. So much info...

Bit of a pity for me - I'm just moving across from an MG6 Essence, the automatic wipers on that have been excellent, with the intermittent control acting as a sensitivity adjustment. My previous car (2010 Peugeot 308) also had very functional automatic wipers.
