In nearly 3 years of ownership, my Trophy has always started charging before the scheduled time. I only have a dumb Podpoint charge point (EVSE before I get corrected :)) so have to set the schedule on the car. Even when scheduled it will start charging within a few minutes of plugging in. The...

I only asked as Brown & Gammons was, until recently, a full MG dealer. It's where I bought my car. Sadly, MG in their infinite wisdom decided that B&G didn't have a large enough showroom to keep selling their new cars. They still do full servicing and warranty work as they are an MG approved...

I don't have problems with Gridserve (other than their prices!). I tend to use their app as they sometimes give a discount if you use the app rather than contactless payments.

Have you asked a local dealer?

I had front undertray damage and had to pay for it. I was lucky in that they were replacing some front suspension bushes under warranty so they didn't charge me for any labour as they had to take the undertray off anyway. The damage was caused when I pulled onto a verge in a narrow lane to let a...

I've found that the current journey reading takes a while to reset. I can stop for 40 minutes or so on a journey and it hasn't reset when I start off again. I actually don't mind that as on a long trip I know how far along I am. It does eventually reset when stopped for long enough, but I don't...

I had the seat belt warning start up once when I was carting a heavy table top. It turned out that I'd accidentally trapped a box of tissues between the folded backrest and the seat squab and this was pressing on the sensor. I thought I was in for 40 minutes of beeps but after 3 or 4 minutes it...

I want it too!

Since an update my ACC no longer slows down around corners that it used to. Otherwise it is still too rough to use when it gets busy. It slows down far to heavily, waits to speed up again then does that quite enthusiastically! I still use it on motorways if the traffic is light or flowing...

I'll have to try with everything else turned off to see what happens!

My Trophy will beep (but not try to steer) when going back to a lane after overtaking if I pull in quite soon after the overtake while the blind spot warning is active. If the blind spot warning is not active then I get no beeps.

I fairly regularly travel up and down to Scotland from south of Cambridge. My first stop is after 155 miles, around 135 of which are on dual carriageway or motorway with ACC set at 70mph. Starting with 100% I've never arrived at the stop with less than 25% charge even in winter. It's sometimes...

Mine has always shown the distance.

If what you want to get out of the car can be carried in the boot, then as long as you have the key in your pocket you can open and shut the tailgate even if the car is locked (and therefore off). I find that quite handy.

Mine does that quite often but if I then refresh the page it usually fills in the missing details.
