    First MOT, major fail, both front suspension bushes

    This was picked up on our mg5 on its first mot as an advisory last december. if it is the same as our mg5, then I was told by mg that the warranty was for 45000 miles (ours is on 75000). Just decided to take the hit, and had the lowers replaced

    Suspension Bushing

    Hi, Did you get any answers for this. My wife's 5 has just had MOT and got the same advisories. Is it worth pursuing mg or the dealer for the warranty.

    paint protection ceramic coating

    I had paint protection applied as part of the deal (it was free, dont worry). However I am not even sure it was either applied properly or is there at all due to the rush on the june deal cars? Reason is that due to the hosepipe ban I have only quickly washed the car twice, and the beads that...

    Differences between the MG4 and the MGS5 EV

    I recently did the same and would agree, apart from I miss the handling of the 4 (just a little bit😈) Grip is better in the s5 though. Check out ali xpress for some visor clip on sunglass holders, ive tried the soft suede version, and the hard plastic version. Both do a decent job, but they can...
