Swapping my pre facelift MG5 for a Camden grey Xpower. Should be available 1st week of June. Hopefully no vibration issues!

I guess some of it is force of habit and the way I was taught to drive years ago!

Thank you both! Really interesting (except when its happening!) I have tended to favour the manual parking brake over the auto hold button but I will certainly try using the auto hold again; in the past I had found that the auto hold didn't seem to be as smooth coming off but I will try it...

I have a two and a half year old MG5 long range and on two occasions (several weeks apart) I have been waiting in traffic with the manual parking brake applied and when I try to move off (by just pressing the accelerator) nothing happens! I can't be sure but I think the heating fan stops but the...

Thank you for the photo! Please could you tell me if one of your greyhounds would fit comfortably in the boot with the back seat up.

I had wondered about whether using the back seats would work so thank you for this post!

Thank you that’s good to know!

Just wondering if anyone has an MG4 and a dog! We currently have an MG5 and a medium (30kg) Labrador. I am very keen on the MG4 X Power and just wonder if our Labrador would fit in the boot!😃

Hi Steven Cage is brilliant and we (and I think our Labradour) have been really happy with it! The team at Hamster baskets were really helpful and custom made the cage to our requirements. As you will see from the photos we requested they leave a space between the front of the cage and the boot...

We had a custom made cage for our Labrador from a company called Hamster Baskets - the did a great job of the cage and were able to accommodate the cage with the floor in the lower position with cut outs and covers for the 2 back brackets (where the floor would sit in the higher position) - just...

Not sure that I have an explanation but when I was looking to insure my new MG 5 LR back in September some of the comparison websites only listed the 52KWH model and I just thought that their databases had not been updated; but some sites did list the higher capacity LR model.

First long run in the 5 yesterday, round trip of about 290 miles with 2 charges at Exeter M5 services on the way to Oakhampton and again on the way back. Thank you again for the advice from the group. Charging was very straightforward with no issues but unfortunately the charging infrastructure...

Once again thank you to the group for such helpful replies - I am probably over thinking the whole thing. Probably a bit like the fist time I ever put petrol in my car but that was 40+ years ago😀

It just occurred to me that having seen quite a lot of conflicting information does the 5 LR charge on a rapid charger with the car unlocked and if it does do I need to do anything to enable the car to unlock the charge cable?

Hi Les I am loving the car! Thank you so much for such a detailed and helpful reply - it has really helped to clarify the process.
