    EV opposition in the media is ramping up

    I think the article Geoff is referring to is a simple misinterpretation and late catching up to recent facts. Price cuts are a good thing! We're still getting back into balance after the car price bubble which made EVs hugely expensive and second hand car prices are still abnormally high...

    Foot rest

    You might want to get your final design (once tested) printed somewhere professionally like PCBWay? Home printers aren't great for big sturdy pieces.

    Tow bar

    I don't know the answer, sorry, I do know some people have had one fitted and it was a reasonably expensive job with the electrics and making a cut out for the towbar and then the fitting etc... It doesn't seem trivial. There are some other threads on this that you might want to look at...

    Do you know the name of this part?

    I would presume it is "Parcel Shelf Plastic Hinge" or something similar.

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    The dealer is right in the sense that very few updates are 'required' by MG as must be done. However, there are all sorts of updates available to fix issues and problems. The approach that has generally worked here for people is not to ask for updates but to report problems and insist they be...

    Polestar 2 review (previous gen) and TJA/LKA equivalent

    Depends what deposit you put down too - if you've lost that you are underwater. My definition is: being able to trade the car in and have it worth enough to give you the same deposit on your next purchase as you put down on your original PCP. I think I am going to lose my deposit on the MG4...

    Motorway Driving

    Agreed. There is no "have to". I could sit at 80mph+ tailgating people if I wanted to, in my 20s that's exactly how I drove (not proud of it). But these days I'm older and wiser and I just find it really relaxing to be going that bit slower than the limit, with those in a hurry able to easily...

    What I like about my MG4 Trophy

    Ode to LKA A gentle pawing At the steering wheel My faithful friend Watching out for me A Nudge left and Sometimes right Keeps me safe and sound As I drift in and Out of my slumber Once I had to focus But no longer as My watchful friend Takes care of me and Guides me expertly along

    Motorway Driving

    I tend to keep above 60, usually 65 and accelerating to 70 to overtake slower traffic. The generally accepted informal minimum seems to be 50, although I think 90kph/56mph would be more sensible. Some vehicles are speed limited to 90kph.

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    Everyone is different, which is fine. We've found a 360 camera (not reversing camera) transforms parking into a doddle, the helicopter view means you can park perfectly regardless of the poor rear visibility. Since we had this on a car a few years ago it has become a must. Before I...

    Polestar 2 review (previous gen) and TJA/LKA equivalent

    I don't think it is a simple as that because dealers can also reclaim the VAT on some things - but I admit I am not up on the specifics.

    Are the facelift cars better?

    I suppose it is possible but that is the first I ever heard about this.

    MG4 service - what is covered? Low vs high milage

    I bypassed the MG service booking system by ringing the garage and letting it ring through the options twice, then I get the local switchboard and I can talk to the actual people there (not a call centre) and I've been able to combine fault finding with servicing, then I follow up with a printed...

    Are the facelift cars better?

    No rain sensor on any MG4s. Speed-sensitive wipers, that is it.
