    MG5 smart charger

    Thanks for the help received. Problem solved. I used a Shelly wi-fi controlled relay. Very simple and straightforward. My only observation would be that whilst the Shelly module fits inside the Rolec box very easily if I were to tackle this again I think I would bring two 12v wires out of...

    Parking Brake

    Thanks. Seems like I need to accept it. I have had trouble in the past, but I guess there is 6 plus years on the wArranty still.

    Parking Brake

    Apologies if this had already been covered but … When I leave my car unused for a week or two I always try to park it safely in the garage with the handbrake off to reduce the risk of it seizing on. Try as I might I can’t find a way of doing this with the MG5. Anybody any know if this is possible?

    Ioniq vs MG5 - help with choosing

    I currently own an MG5 and previously owned an Ioniq plug in. In addition to everything already said, the one Ioniq plus is that you can fit a towbar which I used for my bike rack. You are not allowed to tow a trailer but you could use it for a luggage rack.

    MG5 Pre Heating Defrosting

    Got to say I would have liked some of the more sophisticated functions but hey I didn't have the extra 15k so I'm quite happy to do what I've been doing for quite some time- stick the fan heater in the car, set Alexa for 15 minutes, have breakfast, hey presto.

    MG5 Roof rails decorative only

    Thank you Les. A totally unacceptable response. They printed sales literature with pictures of a cycle rack. They need to get some legal advice. This response would not be accepted in any court in the land and would be treat as completely disingenuous, flying as it does in the face of all...

    MG5 Roof rails decorative only

    Is this a case of the rails not having been properly tested to UK standards before the vehicle came to market rather than actually designed as decorative? Surely MG should be required to come clean and either get the proper testing carried out or alternatively recall affected vehicles for the...
