Having owned my MG5 Exclusive for over 2 years now, I have only just realised that the passenger seat appears to have no height adjustment. This realisation has come about as I now take an elderly mate out once a week since he had a medical event, and he can only get into the car head first as...

I have lane assist and MG Pilot on my pre FL Exclusive, if you can find one at a decent price.

OK, my thought wasn't relevant then, sorry

Which phone have you got?

I can't comment on the difference between the two as I have only owned a pre-facelift, but you can be assured that the "safety electronics" are probably way more advanced than your previous older cars. I suppose I'd add that I rarely need to do more than the range of my car (which happens to be...

I was avoiding posting on this on as it's largely rehashed stuff from other threads but I'm so glad to see a glimmer of understanding and maybe even acceptance of sentiments I've shared before here, and which you previously seem to have had an issue with. :)

You've not pressed the ECON button too have you? Mine is great but by far is best when on Auto.

I bought a boot liner from Amazon for not a lot and it turned out to be rubbish for what I needed. I was lucky enough to be given an MG rubber boot floor mat and it is brilliant for my purpose. I do supermarket collections for the local foodbank and donations are piled into bags and...

I know you are and I've engaged with you on other conversations, and I am interested in what everyone posts, even if I sometimes have a different view! Sorry that you've got cross, that wasn't my intent. I don't want to ignore you (or anyone else for that matter) but I will do my best to not...

But coming to an EV forum to complain doesn't seem the right approach to me, even if I thought it was worthwhile. And there is already stuff being done, on quite a large scale apparently, so it does seem to me a minor waste of breath...
