We needed to downsize from a RAV 4 (wifes decision) and I thought she would go for the MG4 but no, she preferred the MGS5. Getting out of back seats was harder in the 4. Yes. you can disable the annoying speed warnings.

No need to remove trim to install cables for dash-cam, there's a power outlet on side of rear view mirror housing, Brilliant.

I will be looking for metal scuff plates for door entry points and one for the boot so the labrador doesn't ruin the paintwork. When I can find where to get ones that fit the MGS5.

I have Octopus utility supplier and tried a granny charger but to be honest so slow that it would be needed to be on charge all the time car was not in use. Had a hypervolt unit installed by Octopus that can be scheduled to charge during the cheap rate overnight. I charge car up when it gets...

I have a red MGS5: colour seems ok to me, car looks good in red so I guess it's personal preference.

I'm finding the suspension a bit harsh on our pot-hole ridden roads could this be due to the larger wheels on the Trophy LR as I notice others have found it to be too soft on other MG models. After one month still finding the control screen a bit confusing and feel I need to sit down and...
