Thanks. Sadly few replies yet so I’m thinking this might be quite a niche interest!

Thanks for the reply. I believe they're rated up to 500kg - previously had a PFL that was not.

Hi, Coming to the end of a camping trip in our MG5 Trophy where we just about got everything in the boot, roof box and around the children! We've been toying with the idea of a trailer tent for next year but a couple of things are holding us back: 1. Charging on long journeys. Most chargers...

I hope it works - let us know!

Of course, it was this one: https://amzn.eu/d/0cxTZnrQ

Just to confirm - Anker cable arrived and works beautifully. Thanks all for the recommendations!

Thanks for the pointer - yes I am, but would be an easy mistake to make!

Well I've picked the car up and it's lovely, but predictably can't get CarPlay working at all, even with the cable I used to use in our previous MG. I've seen elsewhere people say that Anker cables seem to work well so I'll get one of those and give it a try... thanks for the comments above.

I’ve used a Mer destination charger in Winchester, but not a rapid. That one worked fine with my Electroverse card, but can’t speak for their rapids

I’d be interested in this, thanks. Last weekend tried again at Cambridge and still getting a ‘car not detected’ error in my pre-Facelift MG5LR
