    Interesting/worrying story from Scotland - ZS with no brakes.

    I read that story (in something other than the Sun) earlier. It sounds pretty fishy to me, I would guess at a psychological episode or something getting wedged on the throttle peddle before I concluded that there was a coincidence of this many different faults generating that many different...

    Planning my first proper trip

    Thanks all. I won’t take the granny charger as my father in law is desperate to point out that I’ve only gone electric to be a poser - but I will do a normal drive and build in a stop. Thanks!

    Planning my first proper trip

    Thanks - makes sense. I’m visiting in-laws so, a quiet sit at a charger for a bit will give me time to get my temper back in check!🤫

    Planning my first proper trip

    Hi, new to my MG5 (pre face lift) only delivered on Monday and less than 200 miles on the clock so far. But need to do a round trip next week from Aylesbury to Seaford which is 107 miles each way (largely motorway). Should I start with the assumption that I could wear a coat, kers3, eco mode...

I think that both brands are aimed at people who want a...

    Delivered today .... day one couple of questions:

    Hi, just had my black pre-facelift leased MG5 LR delivered. Just done about 10 miles and have plugged in the granny charger. May I ask a couple of newbie questions: 1) It came with the DAB 'fix' plugged in and an aerial stuck to the windscreen. Anyone know what the plan in - should I assume...

    Bored waiting

    I should give and update and admit that I was being unfair to Zen Auto. My pre-facelift MG5 is now booked for delivery on 28th. All things considered an early/mid September order fulfilled before December isn't really something I should be whinging about. Look out for variety of daft...

    Was looking for more optimism but, yeah, slowly accepting that as a likely prospect.

    Bored waiting

    Hi, I ordered my pre-facelift MG5 in early September - just a lease from Zen. It was discounted and came with a ‘predicted’ 4 week delivery schedule. I assumed that they were flogging off the left over stock. But, despite a few ‘it’s in its way, our delivery partners will be in touch’ emails...

    2129 Miles in France and Spain

    Hi, as you’ve done it in real life, can I ask: is there a button to press for the headlights when driving in Europe or do you have to buy a sticky deflector? Cheers, Paul
