😊 Still getting the speed warning even though it’s switched off.. Also the regen defaults to 1 and needs switching up every time. Plus points the ac is excellent and the economy too. Still pleased with it 👍

Ok first update…. 😉 Set up custom pilot, switched off the speed nanny, she still interrupts the music and repeatedly tells me the limit. Fine if I’m speeding but if she’s read it wrong (as the MG4 frequently did) this will be really annoying. Consumption at least 25% better than same route in...

Not much out there yet, car came with dealer mats so will use my MG5 rubber mats on top for now so I don’t lose the new car smell! Mudflaps going to be a consideration this time, I think the car would wear them well and I do need them.

Direct Line were the cheapest (of all the quotes, not just firms I’d heard of) on Money supermarket. Set it up easily and excess half the XPower’s.

Picked mine up today and setup was different to the 5&4 but yes you need to look for the user menu on the screen. Bound it straight way, in fact easier than it was to unbind the ; when I dropped it off!

Collected my S5 Trophy today after just 3 basically ok months with my XPower. My 4th MG from Waylands Oxford in less than two years - because their deals have been so good. ZS Excite 1.5, FL 5 SE, 4 XPower and now a grey S5. Cash price was £21300 through last weeks deal, paid a moderate amount...

Cost me £56 to update my GAP to 36 months on the S5. Still not recognised on their system as it’s so new but all done on a recorded line. Will check in soon to see if it’s gone on the system anyway. Never had to claim it and hope I don’t but their call handling has always been top notch.

Pick up my MGS5 tomorrow and tried to change my Motoreasy GAP online but they don’t recognise the MGS5 yet. Will ring them in the morning. Motoreasy had been good over the years, found two old GAP polices I’d forgotten about and credited me towards my ZS ICE GAP. Switched it to the 5, then the...

👍😊 It’s a stonking car the MGS5, best one they’ve made yet. And at £21300 for top spec and met paint an absolute steal.

Sorry gang I’ve been too busy to get here for a while. Having a tidy up with my emails, decided to drop the dealer a line checking in on ER 4 offers. Had a surprisingly positive response. Went in to them this morning, had a test drive, I’m afraid to say I’ve jumped ship! 3 months and 1800 miles...

Well the 2.5k buyout was one! The XP drove serenely when loaded to the max and it was a lovely relaxing drive. The range was way better than expected so that was good, and the two-up B road point and shoot stages were a blast. Didn’t notice before as I usually drive in Eco, only using normal for...

Manic week so no time to update, didn’t even use the XP till yesterday! And boy did it get used. Fully loaded up with 3 on board and up to the roof moving my son into his new flat in Southampton. Hot day with ac on max, part cross country, part M3, part city. Left home with 99% and 235 GOM...

Due to an oversight in my part I went to go to work and found a range of 79 miles for my 60 mile round trip. Oops.. Full eco vicar mode and I got to work with 67 miles left. 5.0 mpkwh on the GOM. I’ve been in talks with the dealer regarding switching to this actual ER (for that is what I should...

My mistake, apologies.

Bought for my MG5, VW 5x112 steel wheel, unused space saver tyre 16” with toolkit in centre and 5 radius type bolts. Car sold and no good for my MG4 XP. £50 Collection only from RG8, west of Reading.
