I'll have a chat with my auto-electrician regarding the dashcam. As far as the registration dates go, I think it was an arbitrary decision to offset the later registrations by 50, way back in 2000. More info: Registration plates in the United Kingdom follow a specific format and set of rules...

It is a Thinkware F200, hardwired and does support recording when the car is turned off, set at the lowest reording level, but the car was only standing over a weekend - previously I had left it for 3 weeks when we were away earlier this year with no issues on our return. I've had to collect the...

Today's update is that they say it's fine today, within MG specifications, without the dashcam connected, so they won't be changing the battery :(

Hi folks, Interested in your opinions please. My 74 plate ZS EV Trophy turned into a large blue paperweight yesterday. None of the keys worked for unlocking and eventually I made it into the cabin using the emergency blade key. The dashboard was dead - no light, not able to start. I called...

I bought mine new last September and it came with both granny and type 2 cable.

OMG - I hadn't even thought of doing this! I've had HA running in my house for years. Off to give it a go.....

Thanks for this - I did not have this information with my dongle purchased from Temu, but I managed to log into it by plugging it into a power bank and then choosing its wireless network using my laptop. It took me a few attempts to get the password, which in the end was 12345678. I had a...

Dumb question, sorry..... Is the higher rate due for everyone from April 1st or when your tax would next be due? I bought my car in September and have just "renewed" it early, so on paper it appears that I have free tax to the end of February next year. Just wondering if I have saved 11 months...

I found this by accident - click on the fan icon on the home page. ETA - apologies - I didn't realise how old this bit of the thread was when I prematurely hit "reply"

Thank you!

Please can anyone help with identifying this warning? It came up several times today for a few seconds, along with an audible beep, but I can't seem to find out what it means. The horn is also sounding when I lock it, but it seems like all the doors/boot are closed and the system is turned off...

Mine does beep if a pedestrian crosses my rear whilst I am reversing. However, I'm not sure if the pedestrian hears it also? ?

Thanks everyone - really appreciate your time in replying with some great advice

Jumping onto this thread, I've now charged twice, first time to 100% as I didn't know how not to, and tonight to 86% as that's when I noticed how much juice was in it. Is there a way to set the short range version to charge only to 80%, as I'm struggling to find it... Thanks in advance.

Found it! - my car was "born" on 18th May 2023!
