    The Tesla full self-driving thread

    Well yes, this happens every time there's an FSD update. They've been "pretty damn close" for years. I'd always recommend waiting until people who aren't hardcore Tesla fanboys and are able to see the flaws get hold of it before getting excited.

    How to drive an electric?

    So glad I'm not the only person to have done this. For me it was pressing the brake down with my left foot when I got in to get the car to "System Ready" and then trying to pull it up to find the bite and wondering why nothing was happening. Didn't help that I was used to cars where you have to...

    Shiny! (Clean car)

    Could have done with knowing that before choosing a red car. Just been out this morning to find that one of the little blighters had got a direct hit on the driver's door handle...

    Tricky Chargers

    Gridserve do have pre-authorization charges, they just do it in a cleverer way where they (probably - technically speaking I don't have direct insight into how Gridserve do things but this is the general way you make this work) initially reserve £1 and then increment that as the charge continues...

    MG4 Car backseat organiser

    Is it attached in any way or will it go through the windscreen if you brake too hard?

    Swapping insurance for new car - I tell ya!! ?

    Some of the sites differentiate between MG (the old British owned MG) and MG Motor UK (SAIC's UK division), make sure you selected the right one.

    Swapping insurance for new car - I tell ya!! ?

    You can check to see whether the registration has popped up on the DVLA system yet here. AFAIK dealers tend to leave it to the last minute to set it up because they don't want to pay the registration fee and then have you cancel your order. Super irritating but not much that can be done about it.

    Cost to run my ICE car. ?

    Depends, are you willing to go with a used car? There are some very nice deals on used EVs right now. Or wait for the Citroen ec3 to come out for (supposedly) ~£23k.

    MG was second for the sale of EVs in UK

    You need to be on the latest infotainment version on the SE for that, not sure whether the trophy has got that feature yet.

    Do you agree with these charger operator rankings?

    Alright for some, my local 7kW Podpoints are 62p/kWh (!) - presumably looking to tap into the famously lavish Yorkshire spending habits. Funnily enough they're very rarely in use. Thankfully I have a drive and am able to charge at home without bankrupting myself.

    Post your favourite joke! Keep it clean and PC!

    There are 10 types of people, those that understand binary, those that don't and those that didn't expect this joke to be in ternary.

    MG4 steaming up problem

    Interesting that other people are also seeing this. I had noticed it was steaming up a lot but I'd always just assumed it was just due to my pup being excited to take a car trip and panting all over everywhere...

    Software updates - newbie owner

    What Ian said basically. There is a screen in the infotainment offering to check for what would be OTA updates but I don't believe MG have ever indicated that they plan to actually implement any OTA updates any time soon. My experience of dealerships updating the software has been that they...
