I would only buy the trophy despite the spoiler, not because of it. My dislike of it is made worse by the fact that it has a detrimental impact on the range. The car tops out at 100mph - long before any aerodynamic benefits kick in & I believe it causes some of the noise issues that others have...

When your battery is low, & it’s cold & wet, 11 miles seems quite a long way! My point was, it’s quite a penalty for something purely cosmetic.

I had always intended to get an Mg5 when they released the facelift, but have been distracted/tempted by the Mg4. Having read this thread, I now sincerely doubt that I will be buying one. I was willing to overlook the poor boot space, & even the lack of rear wiper. I really want a rear camera...

If you connect to the VTL adaptor using a 2-way mains adaptor, could you not also run a charger to keep the 12v battery topped up?

I tried out an MG5 at the f/c show yesterday, & agree with you on all points, even though it is on a ICE platform, as will be the facelift version.(arriving in November!) Funnily enough, I’m rather underwhelmed by the Marvel, their first car on a dedicated EV platform. There is still nothing on...

I went to the Fully Charged show on Sunday & test drove an MG5 LR❤️ Very nice drive, with squeals of delight from my 2 passengers when I put my foot down☺️ One of the staff asked if I had enjoyed it, but when I told her that that model was discontinued & no longer available she was amazed. She...

Brilliant review from James & Kate as usual; very reassuring for those who have bought, or intend to buy an MG5; not many people are going to be as hard on their car as he is! James said that he charges the car to 100% most days which I understand is not ideal for battery longevity, so I would...

Hi Martin welcome to the forums! I’d be interested to know the age, mileage, and how much you paid for the 5SR. The waiting times for new cars seems to be approaching my expected lifespan, so I may have to buy S/H if I want to drive an MG before a mobility scooter!

Your absolutely right when you say the big companies have to plan well ahead, and no-one knows yet what new innovations/technology will come along making their products suddenly obsolete. For example, did anyone see fifth gear recharged the other night. Vicky & Jason were testing the latest Neo...

Price is $44,990 (£23,845) not sure which models are available there, though
