    Contributors League Tables

    I'm pleased to say I have not been given a label. It does seem a bit of a naff thing, something they might do on social media. Ooh I must get some likes so I know I have friends. 🤢🤮 Or am I just jealous......NO.

    Charging in the Aberystwyth area

    But to be fair, it's not that far to cross the entire barren mid Wales and a few kWh should do the trick 😂

    Solar Power - Why people ignore your advice

    Just as an observation, isn't it funny, we used to be wary of not using the big guys and were wary of the little guy, the newcomers, could we trust they would be around etc etc. Now it seems we are to be wary of the big guys and should trust in the little known newcomers. :)

    Charging in the Aberystwyth area

    What trouble did you have at the Tesla ones, they are possibly the easiest of all to use so long as you use one that is open to all (Aberystwyth is). There is also the The National Library of Wales, SY233BU which has 70 chargers, yes seventy, including CCS 75kW and type 2 22kW run by Fuuse and...

    MG5 Faults

    There is practically nothing covered by the warranty after 3 years other than the battery, so I wouldn't place too much emphasis on that. see the warranty here https://www.mg.co.uk/sites/default/files/2025-07/MG_Online_Warranty_Statement_July_2025.pdf

    Sorry for such an obvious question but is the second phone paired with the car ?

    Solar Power - Why people ignore your advice

    As you said the cost of the solar panels themselves is small so in effect the number of them almost becomes irrelevant to the cost of installation from scratch. I have had quotes where the difference between 4 panels and 12 was negligible from the same company. Your 5kWh DIY battery may only be...

    MG Pilot Speed Limiter defaults to 'off' at every car 'Start'/'Ready' power on

    Do you have adaptive (active) cruise or just the steady speed variety ? If adaptive that must drive you bonkers when it matches the speed of the vehicle in front. I don't intend to be rude but can you keep to a steady accurate speed yourself ? Does a drop or increase of 1 or 2 mph make any...

    Totally agree. Plus all the paperwork and everything is done for you.

    The Ultimate MG5 "Real World" Energy Consumption Thread

    In the 5 the display is limited to 20miles/kWh max, but my Kona goes up to 999. I live at the top a hill and the first mile of my journey I always achieved the 20 and now the 999. 😂

    Anyone using car battery to power house ?

    I respect your knowledge and others on here and you clearly speak as a qualified person, however I speak as an unqualified lay person, and possibly as devil's advocate. Firstly I would not read the installation manual for a combi boiler as I would get someone else to install it, as per...

    Post a Pic

    I do, thanks. We stopped northbound on our way up and sampled the fare but didn't need to charge as we were still at 74%. We wanted to check out the amenities at the southbound so didn't want to mess about with crossing the M'Way and we weren't in a hurry. We had wanted to visit for sometime...

    How do actually remove the 12V Battery.

    Here is the manual for the non-long range Pre-facelift that I downloaded some while ago. You can tell from page 257 as it's the 52kWh pack. It still doesn't have instructions for removing the 12v. Hopefully this link will work...

    Joke thread

    Boys never grow out of toilet humour, they merely restrain themselves mostly, but it comes out eventually. Boys also never grow out of toys, it's just the price of the toys that changes. In fact boys never actually grow up, they just get older and most adopt responsibilities, but the boy is...

    Anyone using car battery to power house ?

    It's a question I had thought about several years ago running the boiler with the aid of a battery power station, one of the EcoFlow type etc. It may have the same problem with a V2L supply, maybe ?? Researching discovered that often the boiler simply wouldn't work. The answer was because of the...
