    Insurance Renewal Quote

    Age of drivers, post code, use of car, where is it stored/kept in the day and overnight etc.? All of these factors have a bearing on premiums. From what you've been quoted though, that seems a good price when compared to my PFL MG5.

    Spotted my first Cyberster on the road

    Saw one a few weeks ago outside the service department at my local dealer. Apparently no reverse gear, could only be driven forwards. Nice car in the flesh though.

    Is the K4 pressure washer any good?

    Had mine for 3 years and it's used probably 2-3 times a week. Normal household duties plus car washing including snow foam. So yes, I'd buy another if and when this one fails.

    MG 7 year warranty.

    Hi Guys 👋 After selling our 72 plate MG5 Trophy back in February 2024, we'll be soon coming back to MG5 ownership with a 22 plate MG5 LR. A question on the MG 7 year (?) warranty...... Given that we all know the 7 year warranty covers less and less as ownership rolls on...

    Time for a change after 14 months.

    After just 14 months of owning our first EV, the FL5 is being part exchanged on Saturday :(. We started the EV journey on mainly local journeys of 25 mile round trips twice a week plus local commuting to and from work (5 miles). However, we've found ourselves travelling more frequently to North...

    SWARCO RFID card?

    A lot of my journeys now take me to North Wales, especially Anglesey. From previous charges, SWARCO are by far the most reliable, fast (45kw+) and cost effective. To date, I've always used either contactless or the SWARCO app to start and pay for the charge. But what would happen if I couldn't...

    FL5 - playing music from USB stick (or not?).

    For speed and convinience, I've gone down the Musicolet route. All albums are on laptop in WMA format, just as they were on the USB. Successfully transferred them to MP3, reloaded onto USB but car refused to read some of the albums. Those that the car did read were all over the place and in no...

    HS Plug in - mpg & performance with battery depleted?

    Currently running a FL5 EV but looking for a second family car, maybe the HS plug-in. Performance figures seem really good with 254 bhp and 184 lbs/ft but I guess this is with a fully charged battery. For anyone running an HS plug-in, do you notice a drop off in performance when the battery is...

    Windscreen Fluid

    For me, Halfords neat -20 screenwash + 200ml of meths for an empty washer bottle. Cabin smells a bit if you overdo the meths though...
