    Anyone wash their car today? ?

    None of it's body is missing yet, well, except for the white plastic cover on the charging door, but it is still in the car .... somewhere ..... .... but I'll keep that excellent tip in mind, it might work for the other two MG4's in the yard :unsure: T1 Terry

    My confusion was regarding Trophies was, is it cumulative trophy points or milestone trophy points Cashing in my trophy points? from that point on, I just wanted enough points for the virtual full car detail ...... T1 Terry

    The MG4 51 is on its third rinse cycle, should I sprinkle some soap powered on the roof between rain burst? Or just some wash and wax and let nature do the rest? T1 Terry

    I seem to remember @LenEV2016 talking something about making the step up a level, but I can't seems to find the post or much information on how it's done ..... so I'll ask here :D I've scored a first place and 3rd place, do I need to score a second place to get the trifecta? Or is it more...

    Motorsport anyone? 🙂

    Our workshop in Mannum was originally owned by Jerry Kooistra who built some amazing classic race bikes Jerry Kooistra – MotoVue and the Matchless 500 single based bike Bill Horseman raced at the Isle of Mann TT to come second ...... which annoyed Jerry so much he never returned to compete ...

    %, miles or both?

    Maybe a small sticky pad note showing tenths is a colour coded graph near the SOC reading to reference what each 10% means, till you get a feel for it ...... T1 Terry

    Two approaches to solar install. Thoughts appreciated!

    On the first video, unless you live somewhere the panels will never see a lot of hot direct sunlight any time of the yr, forget about bi facial panels and microinverters. Bifacial panels rely on light reflection from the underside to catch the solar that passed through the panel and gets...

    The naming of cars...... Have you?

    Back in the Illawarra, before we moved to WA, the neighbour sold his house and rebuilt a motorhome and called it Flicity, Flick the city he later explained, but he named all his vehicles, might have been his ancestorial Scottish blood or something ...... The bright red hair and the ability to...

    %, miles or both?

    In the ICE vehicle, 1/4 tank on the gauge didn't trigger a panic or even concern, yet 25% SOC remaining looks like you'll be walking and carrying sparks back in a bucket, or worse, having a tilt tray come and rescue with all the embarrassment and cost involved ..... Change the mind set and if...

    Motorsport anyone? 🙂

    That one that carries both front wheels in two gears, incredible power and driveline ..... I've watched a few rather over weight freezer trailers being dragged by long nose Kenworths dangle the left front tyre and carry it for two gears, but never both front wheels T1 Terry

    What makes you feel old?

    but not the one where I live now :rolleyes: or the street number, no idea what the wife's phone number is if I don't have my phone with me ..... but that's not being old, that's having your brain rattled inside your skull in an MVA ...... The real annoying part, it can't be proved in a court...

    In it, you need to sleep in one to realise the difference :rolleyes: :ROFLMAO: Actually dragging one of those wobbly boxes around the countryside and enjoying all those toots of the horn and alternate waves you get when the 15 kms of traffic behind you finally get past when you pull over for a...

    Anyone wash their car today? ?

    Urban grunge comes to mind, or car park camouflage, they don't park too close or key the paintwork if it isn't shiny .... and think twice about cutting you off, you might be looking for a new car or at least a full respray because they can't match the colour ....... T1 Terry

    Anyone wash their car today? ?

    Well, I'm proud to announce the MG4 has been washed 2 days in a row .... gotta love that nature car wash apps ...... They might have missed the wheels and tyres, but I've never had to dress them ..... they look just fine El natural :cool: Not quite sure if they'd look better dressed smart...

    What's the weather like over your way

    Would you believe, the rain is back to falling out of the sky ..... and lots of it. Throw in a few really good wind gusts, and it felt like I was on the bike watching the Australia Superbike first round at Phillip Island :LOL: T1 Terry

    How many sensor and drive timing failure potentials are in that transformation :eek: I had the job offered to me to sort out why an Opel convertible was setting off an alarm at a certain speed .... when I took a quick look, just about every sensor, trip lock and motor had been disabled ...

    What's the weather like over your way

    It's not raining from the sky at the moment, more from the air ..... the humidity is up around the levels I remember from a Christmas on the Gold Coast Qld, you could have a cold shower, but you couldn't get dry without air conditioning to pull the water out of the air ...... our rooftop rattler...

    Two approaches to solar install. Thoughts appreciated!

    A member of the Adelaide AEVA branch has just had his V2G fully certified at the real work model, not a test case where short term readings and effects were measured. The people who did the install and came along to do the talk on it, later said the MG4 was well suited to the task and they had a...

    Keeping track of my MG4 (efficiency)

    The DC fast charging would have pushed the cost per 100kms up, but good to see it spread out over a yr to see it balances out well, even at $5.45/100kms equals around 3ltr/100kms at the prices around here at the moment, but we have seen times when that would be closer to requiring 2ltr/100kms to...

    MG4 X Power Vibe/Hum 65 to 75mph

    I can't understand why you would want to cart around 800kms of battery capacity, if you weren't going to use that sort of range in a single trip. The MG4 51 gets us from Mannum to Adelaide and back on a single charge and that is fine for local range, but on a trip, 400kms cruising at 110km/h...
