I agree. Price beats everything. And when you think of the leaps forward in interior quality, efficiency, weight, range, performance, practicality with the MGS5, now on a proven debugged platform - it really is impressive. I was leaning away from having another MG but now I am much more...

Just check with your insurance if you are adding stickers, some insurers count them as a modification (yes, really!).

I had to measure the boot of my Trophy to decide whether to drop the floor. With the adjustable floor in the up position, the rectangular space is 95cm wide, only about 39cm up until you foul the parcel shelf and 73cm front to back at the bottom narrowing to about 52cm front to back at parcel...

Is there an O for driving more than 30 years? 😝

Four different things: 1. Charge plug lock: locks the charge plug into the car's port while the car is charging. Emergency release cord in the boot, in most models. 2. Charge flap lock: locks the charge flap while not charging (ie shut), normally operated via the keyfob / doors, to lock and...

I'll sell anyone 50p coins for a £1 each. Any takers? 😉

Indeed, although I think he or she will take quite a while to pop round and switch off your LKA. 😉

I'm now doing this too... with the improved LKA update. Occasionally the car gets confused but it works as well as many other makes now. I'm conflicted about these systems, I see plenty of bad drivers with poor lane discipline who need this, at the same time such systems can never be perfect.

I agree it is counterintuitive and poor design. It should at a minimum lock out settings from being changed before the car is in READY state.

It sounds like you are trying to justify it on financial grounds. However, it would always be cheaper in the long run to avoid finance and stick with a car for years and years. So, what's your real priority here? If you want the pleasure of a newer car, with improvements, then can you justify...

Buying a new EV isn't sensible from a cost point of view. Used wins every time. However, if cost isn't a priority and you want the latest and greatest, you can insulate yourself from some risks if you get a good lease or PCP deal, for a price. At least you get certainty on costs. Cars are...

I don't know about the Cyberster but on the MG4 the flap is openable even when stuck, the outer cover slides off and with a tool you can then operate the flap mechanism. The Cyberster might be a similar design? https://www.mgevs.com/threads/frozen-charging-port-door-flap.19472/

Yes, different battery chemistries and sizes have been used for different markets in the past, eg with the MG4. Part of the reason for price differentials.

The CarPlay UI comes from the phone, not the car. So if CarPlay works but the Electroverse app doesn't work inside it, that's a phone/app compatibility issue - I think most people use the Electroverse app outside CarPlay, just on their phones. CarPlay versions of apps are often feature lacking...

Perhaps it is coming in soon then, sorry to hear you can't get it. I think this may be model specific, for buyers of the MGS5 due to be released soon. @Miles Roberts CG Have I got the wrong end of the stick?
