Just got notification of the new Octopus Go London rate from April Day 28.24 Night 5.49 Standing charge 45.47 I wonder why there are such big regional variations in price.

The standing charge of 60p per day is steep and would amount to £55 pa more than my current 12 month fix on Octopus Go. A quick look suggests the Eon night rate covers whole house usage, not just EV charging - something they have given contradictory information about in the past. Given my...

Am selling the after market frunk from my Trophy as it does not fit the new Premium. It’s deep enough for a charging cable - see photo (coffee cup is there for scale). Fixing is easy - remove the existing cover plate by releasing the plastic trim clips / push pins (second photo). Lay frunk in...

Just to confirm, my after market Trophy frunk does NOT fit the Premium which has a much larger plastic cover under the bonnet (wonder why?).

It is a refresh but it has a new name - Premium instead of Trophy. It’s the Premium name which was not widely available when I set up my insurance last week. .

Further thoughts after driving it for a week Satnav - not as good as my Trophy (map cluttered and detail is lacking, odd routing, some longstanding road closures not showing) But i can always use Waze or Google Maps Wireless charger - phone gets hot Info screen - a couple of freezes and an...

I haven’t tried fast charging yet. In fact tonight will be its first charge and that will be at home on a single phase 7 kW charger. My old Trophy was capable of 3 phase charging at 11 kW but 3 phase is not common in the UK. Here, the new Premium is single phase /7 kW.

Hope you are happy with it. Had mine a couple of days and it’s a much better car than my Trophy.

I bought one of the very first MG4 Trophies at the end of 2022. Being a first generation car it had the oil leak, loose under tray, dodgy software, locking in problem, Bluetooth issues , over sensitive window switches and a truly awful touchscreen. Software updates improved some things and...

Octopus has replaced Octopus Go 12 month fix with a new Octopus Go with only a 6 moth fix AND a £25 exit fee

The Tesla charger at Haigh is an open charger and about 1 mile from the M1 a bit south of Wakefield. And as Gomev said, the Leeds Tesla charger is open but may get busy during the day. September is a long way off so suggest you check the Tesla app nearer the time as their charger’s...

A head's up that as this is a brand new car it is not yet showing on all insurance databases. I was hitherto with AA insurance and they checked with their 11 brokers but non were able to cover my new MG4 Premium. I did get insurance via Uswitch / Admiral so apart from extra hassle it's not...

Both Dees of Croydon and Wilson’s in Epsom had MG4 Premiums to view last week. Not sure if they were for showroom or test drive as they had only just been delivered earlier in the day.
