I did follow the whole thing up with Churchill because my contention is that them charging for a service that is of no use is wrong. I asked if I could pay more for a windscreen replacement service that would work for MG4 OR if not could they refund the cost of what is a pointless add-on to the...

Here’s a little trick I almost feel guilty admitting to using. I live in Islington, no off-road parking/charging so I rely on street-chargers. The lamp post/bollard ones are great for overnight as they are limited to 3.5KW but there are also some parking bays with Source London 7KW ones which...

Worth a try if the radio/entertainment system is misbehaving.

I’ve found that a USB memory stick plugged into the RH port (so the USB-C hole) via an adaptor will often cause the system to behave strangely. I think the entertainment system does not tolerate corrupt USB storage at all. Even memory sticks that have worked for a few days seem to go this way...

After a couple of small scuffs I went looking; these guys were the third ones I tried and the match was excellent (first two really poor) https://madpaints.co.uk/

As middle age sets in you’ll. find your high frequency hearing drops off; the cruel irony is that by the time you can afford decent speakers they’re a waste of money…!

I’ve done 20k miles in mine and it’s been a delight. I think you need to take it back to the dealer.

Had my rear window smashed and charge cable nicked yesterday; it happens. Go through to AutoGlass via the insurance only to be told they don’t hold any MG windows in stock and it would be at least five days. I live in a London terraced street with no off road parking and my wife uses the car...

I’ve been doing a lot of miles over the last few days (Christmas visits to relatives all over the country) so have been charging the car most nights and often a motorway services rapid charge during the day. This evening I got home (no off-road parking so we often use the AC slow chargers fitted...

That little guy has worked flawlessly for me and my wife. Just remember to up the “connection delay” in it’s web interface to 25 seconds.

If we're travelling together and it connects to the wrong one we put that 'phone into airplane mode and after a few seconds it connects to the other 'phone and then we take the first 'phone out of airplane mode and it's all good.

I've been using a Carlinkit 5.0 for the best part of a year and it's been reasonable; once you set the "startup delay" to 25 or 30 seconds and make sure you've updated the firmware it works 90% of the time which for me was OK - my wife was less impressed with the occasional dropout and so I...

Friend Barnet to Hanger Lane - maybe seven miles.

No wind, on the flat. Averaging 40 MPH.

With the warm weather I’m regularly getting past five miles/kWh, but on the North Circular this morning I had twenty minutes at 5.9miles/kWh.
