In case anyone is interested, I retrieved an old android phone from the bottom drawer (I’ve only used iPhone up till now) and downloaded the EO app and it works perfectly so it must be an issue with the apple version of the app. Anyway, it works so I can now go to sleep at night instead of...

I’ve done the deed and I’m having another go tonight 👍

Hi. That gives me some hope that yours works ok 👍 l‘m not sure the standard range car has a scheduled charge setting, but I’ll certainly check just in case. My charger is the mini pro 2 so I was going to check with EO for any firmware updates and break the cardinal rule and read the manual...

Hello all. I have a two year old original MG5 - still the best car I’ve owned - and after all this time, I’ve finally changed to an EV energy tariff with cheap electricity midnight to 5:00 am. My home charger is an EO mini fitted by British Gas and although it’s fairly basic, I can set a charge...

I’m being quoted £310 by Glyn Hopkins in Cambridge, which I why I’m asking. Also waiting to hear from Cleevely before deciding.

Hi everyone. The second service on my standard range MG5 is due and I wondered if anyone can say what sort of price dealers are quoting ?

Thanks for your comment. It prompted me do a little research and I came across this link thought some would find it interesting. Energy (Wh): A Forgotten Parameter for State of Health (SoH) Estimation

This is quite interesting and puzzling at the same time. Following the first service last June on my SR MG5, I was told by the dealership that my battery SOH was 85%. This was a bit of a surprise to me as the car had under 5k and had 90% of charging on my home charger. It is now coming up to the...

Yes, the crook is for exactly what you think and the company I worked for had the all first aiders sent on special training and a defibrillator was installed.

Your comments regarding the lack of trained technicians is quite worrying particularly as it was a workshop manager you were talking to. I retired from the industry a few years ago now, but I was the senior technician and then workshop manager of a company that managed various press fleets...

Yes. I’ve had this a few times. Usually fixed by going in the shop and buying something and using PIN and charge has worked👍

Ha ha, surprised you have any EV’s on the Island - I was intending to take a holiday there until I looked on Zap Map for chargers and they mostly appear to be out of service, so I changed my plans. In fact the most reliable charger appears to be a very helpful islander that offers the use of...

I‘m based in Godmanchester, Cambridge and drive a blue MG5. There’s a few ICE MGs here and I have seen an MG EV parked locally. Also sen a couple of MG5s when travelling between here and Bedfordshire.

Thanks everyone. Think I’ll ask the dealer a few questions before proceeding.

The car has just reached 7000 miles - not that the dealer has asked
