I have used the Instavolt Rapid Charger many times since it opened at a local McDonalds. Today for the first time it failed to read my card. Interestingly the same thing happened to the other Instavolt Charger next to me. Rang the number supplied and the issue was resolved very quickly as I also...

Just charged my car to 80% then took a pleasent round trip journey to a beauty spot near to me in Somerset. I travelled 8.4 miles and my MG ZS EV Trophy Connect now shows 81%. A 1% gain in battery power is pretty good. I useually travel in ECO when I can and always Regen level 3. Although this...

At the recent Fully Charged Show, Harrogate, in May I had the opportunity to meet many new friends. Not only Robert Lewellyn, who is one of the nicest people who promote the future, but also a show photographer who kindly sent me these photographs. Did I mention that I also met Miles Roberts...

Following a great first long trip to Harrogate for the fully charged show I have found a few grippes about the state of our motorway service stations. It seems that below Leeds rapid chargers seem to not be present at some of our service stations. M1, Strensham Southbound, has no chargers as...

Having a great time taking part in some of the fantastic talks. Met Miles Roberts yesterday and Robert Llewelyn greated us all today. If anyone from the forum recognises me say hello. I'm the not good looking one in the top picture.

I'm travelling up to the Fully Charged Show North this Friday. My first really long journey. Does anyone know what the parking arrangements will be? I was told an email would be sent detailing arrangements but so far I havent received any details.

I have been averaging about 3.3 mls/kWh over the last 2 months. Tonight managed 5.4 mls/kWh on a drive to and from my Son. Not bad really.

I have the Trophy Connect long range which I have been getting used to over the last few weeks. The driving for me has been superb and the settings I have been fine tunning as I experience features. I have always made it a rule never to just follow recommendations, however well intentioned...

I have only driven my MG ZS EV for 2 weeks but have been avidly looking at these threads and YouTube videos for nearly 2 years. The driving has been fantastic, very easy to get used to this one peddle driving and rock solid road handling, as well as enjoying the rapid accelleration on a few...

Vital equipment for charging in the UK Good morning everyone, just sat in my car this early morning getting a little energy topup at my local carpark. It suddenly occured to me that the one piece of equipment I had forgotten to purchase was probably the most important for any EV driver who...

As I have not yet been able to get the NAV working on my MG ZS EV I needed to get a short USB to USB-C connector to use Android Auto for navigation. Since I live in the South West I called into ProperJob, a good place to buy cheap tools and many other things and picked up this lead. As soon as...

Only 2nd day of using my new car. Loving it so far but I can't get the NAV to work. When I press teh NAV screen this is what appears. I have tried this in several locations always the same message. Anyone else had a similar problem? I have connected my phone OK via bluetooth and can easily use...

Received my MG ZS EV Trophy Connect today and been out playing. Super fun but on my travels I found 2 broken fast chargers. The car came with about 48% charge, which I think is the norm now that its so expensive for dealers to do give a free 100% charge. It was actually picked up from Portishead...

Over the last few years I have been checking the availability of EV chargers near to me as I live in a flat and am unable to have my own wall charger. before covid, when I started looking at purchasing an MG EV there were only 2 locations with 7kw chargers and 1 22kw within a 2 mile radius of...

I'm about to order a dashcam for my soon arriving MG ZS EV Trophy Connect and have some questions about the rear-mirror USB connector. I think I have read somewhere on the forum that it has enough power to attach a webcam but couldn't find that thread. Those threads that I did find are about...

I am very pleased to say that a delivery date, March 22nd, has been confirmed for my MG ZS EV Trophy Connect. This will be my first EV and lease vehicle. I have been mostly pleased with the leasing agents, RGW Ltd after a bit of a rocky start. However, they have come up trumps to find me the...
