    New MG4??

    Yes I see now, but again purely a concept that may or may not come to be. But again hardly a fair comparison with the MG4 and let's not forget that Hyundai are way more expensive which gives them way more scope to work with. Let's not forget that MG give us so much more than anyone for the price...

    New MG4??

    I think you're referring to the 3 concept or Veloster, a 2007 concept that never happened. But that's a 2 door coupe, not really a type to compare to the MG4, unless I've got the wrong car.

    New MG4??

    I think it's fair to say that the new MG 4 has no style at all and looking at the reduction in price I can see why ( I believe the current model was largely designed here in UK) Also I can't believe they have dropped the multi link rear suspension, yes the white interior looks great, but why was...

    Unintended acceleration in 2024 MG4 Trophy LR

    I have had my XP 18 months now and in that time had all sorts of strange happenings, but without exception they all came about after failing to wait until the car has fully loaded it's computers. Now before I engage drive I wait until the blue light inside the navigation sign in the Home screen...

    In praise of my XPower

    What else is there left to say? never fails to bring a smile. At the price there's still nothing to even come close. Also to silence some of the handling doubters, best checkout the youtube comparism with the new Fiat Abarth ev, (I think it was with WhatCar) even though he thought the Fiat was...

    X Power lowering springs now available. ?

    Well good on you for going with your passion and I hope you're happy with the result. One things for sure is it's a damn sight cheaper way of filling the wheel arches than fitting 20" wheels which set me back around fifteen hundred notes with new rubber. I suppose I will at least have the big...

    X Power lowering springs now available. ?

    I bought a set of H&R but as soon as a local suspension specialist put her up in the air he said that with that complicated multi link setup I would be plagued with camber and alignment problems and expect some uneven tyre wear. Then after being told by MG that any warranty claims would be off...

    X Power 5000 miles. 🙂👍

    Yes thanks for that, I will bare that in mind.

    X Power 5000 miles. 🙂👍

    I'm sorry and stand to be corrected. But like many others I succumbed to the super low finance deal on the XP which was not on offer for the Extended Range model. So now I'm over the euforia of blowing away all and sundry from lights I really wish I could have stretched to the ER, which of...

    X Power 5000 miles. 🙂👍

    I don't wish to continue this conversation which has now become an argument, other than to say that I am retired on state pension with limited funds so if I have to start using those ripoff fast charges I would have been better off keeping my old petrol car. Enough said I think.

    X Power 5000 miles. 🙂👍

    Well for reasons just stated we are told that for battery health we should only in general charge to 80% and quite honestly you don't get much more charging to 100. I've had the car 12 months now and initially the stated range charging to 100 was 214 in warm weather, but now even on warm days it...

    X Power 5000 miles. 🙂👍

    Always enjoy your comments Salty, almost always upbeat and appreciative of what a fine car the Xpower is. But now going on 76 I've decided to sell one of my Les Paul guitars and reduce my PCP from 49 to 36 months max, mainly because I'm dissapointed in the range (would like to do a few more...

    Xpower vs Ioniq 5 N

    There's certainly nothing to touch it for the price and if you run it on 20" rubber as I have done it's not just a srtaight liner either, It's the best upgrade I could have had, the handling is just brilliant, I've had 9 months of great "back road" fun with this car, if it gets out of shape as...

    Xpower vs Ioniq 5 N

    Sorry but for me the 5n just looks a bloated boring looking thing and grossly over priced, for me the XP has way more style and panache. I can honestly say that even if they were the same price I would still buy the MG.

    Air conditioning noise

    My Air Con makes a ticking noise, which is barely audible inside but quite noisy outside the car. Anyone else noticed this?
