    Question: Trophy Sat Nav - should it do online searches?

    I don't like how the map is displayed on the screen in AndroidAuto, it seems off-centre and skewed.

    Customer service - regeneration braking

    I like R1, and it was annoying when the MG4 defaulted to 3 every time I got in the car. Allows a lift and coast experience, maxing out the regen at -5... and more importantly not lighting up the brakes every time you decide to take your foot off the accelerator. Need more than -5.... then the...

    Stupid new key

    I've taken them off and put with the V5c - high chance of losing them on the keyring, so hope any emergency opening is only required at home.

    Question: Trophy Sat Nav - should it do online searches?

    I have been used to the old MG4 Trophy for the past 2 years, where I can enter a location/company name into the sat nav search, and it would come back with the address and correctly route there. The MGS5 does not seem to do this - instead offering random roads in Europe that may match the...

    Cables/chargers

    Got a Type 2 with the MGS5 - Dealer said they could swap for a Granny if wanted at the time of signing the deal, couldn't have both unless buying... Kept the Granny from the MG4 that I traded in (and the additional Type 2 that I purchased) so now have a choice living under the raised boot floor...

    MGS5 Trophy Long Range - 3 phase charging ?

    I am sure my UK Spec MGS5 Trophy doesn't have the 3 phase pins in the car side of the charger (I may have to double check if people say otherwise)... so it won't matter what cable you have?

    Ditto - Single Phase Type 2 supplied with the MGS5 Good job we kept our granny that came with the MG4 before trading it in :)

    My MGS5 Trophy LR has arrived!

    Well this post didn't age well. We now have our VRM issued and 24 hours have past - car to be collected on Saturday. VRM not recognised by the current insurance company (Hastings) and upon calling them, they said the car cannot be insured. Running a manual "new customer" search makes me think...

    Which Colour?

    We are going from Smurf Blue 4 to a Grown Up Blue S5. Plain white is certainly a constant reminder of company car no thrills edition. Not sure the Red is right for the shape of the car, but the HS in the showroom did look good in it with the red stitching.

    Regen setting memory

    My MG4 Trophy always resets to 3 (I drive on 1 so have a * assigned) each time... So was hoping the MGS5 that is on order fixed that.

    MG4 radio issues

    I also have this split. By the 20% fix is hold the home button for 10 seconds and let the whole thing reboot. I am still trying to work out what triggers the "working" radio, or "paused but working" radio split. It's about as random as the bluetooth connecting to the phone or not

    My MGS5 Trophy LR has arrived!

    We've got ours ordered for delivery in July, hopefully a painless swap over with the insurance by then with the systems being able to see it, and essentially the same car as the outgoing MG4 won't increase premiums (we hope)

    MG5 SR to MGS5 LR - considering upgrading after test drive

    The MG4 which the MGS5 is an improvement on, has a very stable speed limit setting. The only annoyance in the 4 is that it defaults to off every time you get in the car... and have to enable it, either to manual or auto sign recognition. I use it more than cruise control as, again in the 4...
