I paid £44.99 last September so they were probably top end of the available range at that time

I also bought from Carmats and can vouch that they are hard wearing and fit for purpose as well as being quite a bit cheaper than MG branded mats. Just go on to their website and order a set of mats for MG ZS EV. You will get a set of 4 mats identical in size and shape to those ordered from MG.

At the time of the MG 4 launch last September SAIC announced that they would be carrying out a trial using COSCO container ships. Vessels started to arrive in both Felixstowe and Southampton. The trial was considered a success and SAIC announced that they would be increasing volumes shipped in...

Absolutely agree, The ZS system is rubbish, I find that Waze is very reliable and estimate around 95% accuracy. There is also the bonus of an audible warning, if you want it, when you reach the maximum permitted speed (legal limit).

Thanks for that. Certainly worth investing £8 to see if that is part of my problem. I have ordered 1 from Amazon. The cable I am using now is only .25m long but rated well under 1 GB My set up worked fine until the March update installed itself on my 'phone. Should know within a week or so...

BYD (Chinese) is on the list. But what surprises me is that MG refer to Android Auto as a key part of their infotainment system without agreeing the spec with the owners of A A. Yes you're right, it's an excellent system and most of it works with the ZS even though not approved. Does Google...

Waze customer support who say there is nothing they can do if I have a non compatible vehicle

You are probably right but they are telling me that I have a vehicle which is not on the published list of vehicles approved for use with Android Auto.

This link has been sent to me by the customer support desk at Waze with whom I have recently raised a query regarding lack of sound alerts. Android Auto Compatibility | Android Published by Google the link lists all the vehicles currently compatible with...

For some years now I have relied on the audible speed warning provided by Waze, via Android Auto, to keep me out of trouble. A recent (unwanted) update appears to have removed this feature from Waze and replaced it with a slightly enhanced visual warning. This has nothing of the immediacy of the...

Yes and even better miles/kWh well over 4 again.

Just a couple of small niggles with my Gen 2 Trophy LR neither of which impact on my enjoyment of the car which I love. No heated steering wheel which I've had for the last 4 years. Also the speed limit indicator is so unreliable as to be useless. Waze has an accurate system with an audible...

Interesting. Thanks @N2STY. At roughly 1 complete cycle a week I can reasonably hope for a battery life of 20 years or more so that'll do.
