Yep! I suppose the one factor that might massively affect used values is boy racers. Young people aren’t remotely anti-EV and the idea of getting their hands on a rare a super car eater will likely prove to be too tempting. It worked for us lol! I doubt they will care about the lack of...

Good old Autotrader value manipulation in action lol. I’m glad mine was at a bargain price or I’d be absolutely raging about it! Still, as a life lesson it’s more proof that if something seems to good to be true… I really feel for anyone that paid the full price for one with this problem and...

This is one of the reasons I gave when I said I was rejecting mine. The warranty is basically worthless as they won’t repair them now and most of the things it’s likely to cause a problem with later are only covered for 4 years. As they won’t fix this, what excuses will they come up with later...

That document with the stage two fix in it has an a vehicle off-line brake point of 21st February 2024, so wouldn’t that mean my car already has it from the factory and also the damper fitted for that matter? If so it doesn’t work, not always.

Haha yeah 👍

I’d probably still have of gone for one but the 3.8 secs is definitely a selling point! I actually love the car apart from this issue and since I’m probably going to be stuck with it (unless I make it my mission in life) I’m trying not to let it completely ruin my view of it. It’s an otherwise...

You should go straight down the dealership and complain. They are supposed to vibrate at around 110kmh - 130kmh, seems you’re missing out! 😜

Thanks. Mine had the a hum from the start and sounds like it got an engine in too high a gear when it is doing it. It’s not as bad since I got it back even though they said they didn’t do anything to it! Hope the litigation works out, I might end up joining it. Thanks for the advice. Good...

Yep 🙁 A design fault can be forgiven but not when they keep knocking them out knowing that one exists without knowing the cause and trying to pass it off as normal. I can’t see anything on the MG website about the XPower providing a potential (but not guaranteed) all over body massage function...

I know that sounds a bit weird but they pointed me in multiple directions of how to dispute it and I did.

Although they said they didn’t do anything it seems they have as the car isn’t as bad as it was. The hum from the vibration is far less and under hard acceleration there is no sudden obvious rotational vibration like there was before. It’s not fixed but it’s improved. I’d put that down to...

I’ve been holding off with this in hope but time for an update. The steering damper just hid some of the more severe shaking my car was doing so initially felt like an improvement. I decided to do my work commute on the motorway for a few days and decided I couldn’t live with it. My car is...

I’m 49 with 9+ years NCB and my XPower cost about £550 to insure with Aviva. I was paying about £400 for my SE with Churchill but they wouldn’t insure my XPower. I was amazed how many policies didn’t offer windscreen cover as standard and that the cheapest quotes wanted a black box and didn’t...

They keep moving the goal posts and some legislation only applies to cars designed or built after a certain cutoff date. I think (though I’m not sure) cars with a single button to turn LKA off have to be held down for several seconds. All new cars sold in the EU from a date last year had to...

That’s what I can’t stand about these advanced safety systems. They have to default to on and have to be made so they can’t quickly be turned off but aren’t actually ready yet technologically. It’s legislation and NCAP requirements being introduced before the technology really exists. I hate...
