In what world was the new list price 26k? Excluding VAT it might have been 26k! 😂

I bought my 72 plate zs short range ev trophy about 6 months ago for 32k. It’s now worth 18k according to we buy any car. Worst financial decision I’ve ever made. I’m now financially tied to a car I hate.

Good luck getting more than 50% of what you paid back. Buying a zs ev was worst financial decision I’ve made so far. Should have just bought a 3 series diesel estate like my gut was telling me to. Screw SAIC and their under developed, badly bolted together, rattle boxes.

I've done way too many miles now, '72 plate with 11,000 miles on it. The car is still like new being only 6 months old but has a few miles on it. I should just bang it on auto trader/ebay and see if I get any bites.

Wish I could reject my car, did you purchase through Luscombes? I've tied palming it off on my wife but she quite rightly hates it. I'm just going to suck up the depreciation and flog it privately. Anyone want it?

Yeah cheers - I had asked them about this but am still waiting for their meter team to call me back.🤦‍♂️ Hmm.. I’ve mowed down 3 pheasants, a rabbit and an unknown but rather large quantity of quail since August last year. So in that respect I suppose you could consider it to be a weapon!

The frustrating thing is, the drivetrain is great. I do 160 miles a day with my commute and the majority is on tractor/tourist filled A and B roads. It creates overtaking opportunities that with anything less than 300hp would not normally feel achievable. If you could strip the thing back to a...

My 64 plate E300 diesel hybrid was fantastic, probably most comfortable capable car I’ve ever driven. Never missed a beat. I bet there’s a lot more lemon MG’s than Mercs.

EV’s are the future but not until the price of electric comes down. I’ve tried to swap tariffs so I can get cheaper off peak but I’m not allowed a smart meter because I live near some massive golf balls. That’s what my energy supplier is saying anyway. The faults on the car are definitely down...

I have all the same/similar gripes and possibly more with my 72 plate SR Trophy. Horrendous rattles from sunroof, dashboard and pillar where the tweeters are housed. TPMS come on in cold weather and say there is a problem when there isn't. Tyres are perfectly inflated - I checked with a gauge...

What’s the difference between the ac blow and just ac then?

Did anyone ever find an answer to this? Blow or not to blow? It's cold outside now and the last thing I want is it to blast the cabin with colder air.

Car was off when I took the pics but didn’t seem to get brighter when I pressed stop/start and got out. I’ll test it. I might just start turning the screen off as people have helpfully pointed out. Knowing where you’re going come’s second to seeing where you’re going after all. It’s not like I...

I could just leave it on the radio but I have to use Waze through CarPlay as for some reason my trophy didn’t come with the real time traffic… despite what the spec on the mg site shows. Dealer told me I got a panoramic roof instead. Like it’s just a lottery what you get and you should just be...

I’m in the process of trying to find a window film that will help dim it further. I have vinyl plotters at my business, so I’ll be cutting some out once I find a suitable film, if anyone is interested?
