MG4 only has daytime running lights on the front. All the rears are off. So you can use the rear side lights / led bit as addition brake lights. At night / when lights come on the additional brake lights are then permanently on as they are just the normal side lights anyway and you will only...

I wonder if it can link up to the light bar on the trophy as well???

But is it faster?? :D

Green light is on. I believe the issue with the dimming part is, the Trophy has tinted windows so there is less light coming through the window, I haven't noticed any difference when driving day or night regarding dazzle. I used to drive my mums old toyota corolla verso with a dimming mirror...

The only thing you'll miss is the noise, that 5L V8 is an epic engine. I ran an early XFR for as few years and loved every minute of it, with the exception of getting only 180-200 miles out of a tank lol. I think when I sold it, it was showing an average of 17mpg :D

I dont think its the blind spot detection. I think its if someone comes up behind you rather quickly it sets it off.

What would you like me to pull?? One of the two loose threads on my rear seats (that have been used about 3 times in the year I've had it, from new). The cheap foam with lack of support on the front seats. The buckled under tray (that's still there), the creaking noise from the rear over slow...

I took a Brabus out for run for an hour about a month ago. It is a quick car and the build quality is far better than the MG4, but i did find the ride quite crashy. Brakes where fine, no issues with the couple of hard stops i gave it, but obviously i wasnt on track or anything. The Wife hated...

A thread revival / update for anyone local (West/Central Scotland) I popped into Arnold Clark MG Linwood for a price for the 1st service yesterday. 7k miles on the car. £125 inc vat and AA will renew as well. A quick call to McMillan MG in Greenock, £75 inc vat and AA renewal as well...

I have thought about it, but its potentially a £4k-£5k loss and not sure my stomach wants it that much..... and i can eat! lol

Hastings renewal came through yesterday, was £424.19 last year, now wanting £710.17 lol One quick meerkat and down to £615.98 with the AA. I'm sure after I spend a bit more time later it will be cheaper again, just not cheaper than last year. :(

I know I have moaned about this before.... Our 4 is basically used as the second car now, not the main car that it was supposed to be. Wife doesn't drive it at all, considering it was purchased for her. Days off, trips to the shops, wife's commute, etc. are all done in our Mini clubman, that's...

I've looked at getting rid of mine also, but the depreciation is too much so kills the idea dead. On another note, I have got the in-laws out of their 20 plate Toyota Aygo and into a 71 plate Mazda MX-30. Beside the range being low on the Mazda its a nice thing to be in and drive, hopefully...

I don't actually know, but the brakes looked plenty big enough when i looked at them in the showroom.

I cancelled a Megane order for the MG back last year, now wish i never. The EX30 looks a nice machine. I went and sat in the new Smart #1 Brabus at the weekend and thats also very nice, was quite suprised. Got an invite back for a test drive (Demo was out when i visited) but after looking at...
