    Thatcham Approved Alarm Fitted???

    Hi, I have owned my MG ZS EV since September 2020 (70 Plate) and its time to renew the insurance once again. This year it seems too have rocketed by almost £200 since last year despite no claims, 12 year + NC Discount, clean license, being 66 years of age and a low mileage off less than 2,000 a...

    Corroded rear brakes

    Just had my ZS EV turn 3 years old (70 plate) with only 6317 miles on the clock and today I took it into my dealer in Burnley for its 3rd service and First MOT. After leaving the car for an hour, I received a phone call from the dealer saying the mechanic says the back brake hubs are badly...

    New update seems to have improved Emergency Braking

    I have owned my ZSEV Mk1 since September 2020 and still love the drive. I took it to my Service Dealer - Chorley Motors MG in Burnley last week for its second service and as always, they did a superb job. On collecting the car, I asked if there where any updates and they said - "yes they had...

    OBD Automatic Window & Sunroof Closer

    It's summer again and often I like to use the open sunroof on my 2020 ZS EV. Unlike some cars where you can simply hold down the lock button on the remote to close all windows when exiting, the Mk 1 ZS EV doesn't have this facility. Has anyone located and tried any third part OBD plug-in Auto...

    Heater Output Reduced in Economy Running Mode

    Compliments of the season. I have owned my ZSEV since September 2020, but due to lock-downs etc. I have only achieved around 2500 miles so far, so mainly used for running around locally. A couple of weeks back, the weather turned very cold and outside temperature was just over freezing at 2...

    Battery Range Reduced after a Rapid Charge

    I bought my MG ZS EV Exclusive last September and thanks to Chorley MG in Burnley, who I have my maintenance contract with, the car has been updated as and when required, the last update being back in February 2021. I have hardly been anywhere since the last lockdown and the car as of yesterday...

    UNIVERSAL FITTING ROOF RAILS

    I am looking to buy a pair of roof rails for my ZS EV. They will only be used for odd light carrying while I am renovating parts of my home like an odd length of skirting board etc. so nothing heavy. Since I traded in my Fiat Doblo for my wonderful ZS EV, I am missing the carrying features the...

    No Flasher Unit Installed

    Hi all, I know we have had lots of debate on upgrading the vehicle to using LED Headlamps and Tail Lamps etc. I have already upgraded and very happy with the Headlamps to NightEye and found them fabulous and much clearer on the road. I have also fitted the Number Plate LED Bulbs on the rear...

    How much does it actually cost to charge from flat to full?

    As I use my car for both private and business, I asked my accountant how should I claim for my travel costs when using the car for business now that I have a full electric vehicle rather than claiming for the diesel or petrol as before. He told me to keep a check on my Home Electric Bills and...

    A Perfect Aim!

    I set off today to visit our local supermarklet, only to be greeted along the way with a message in the small information window saying my "Front Camera View Was Blocked". Never seen this one before, but had read about condensation can get on the lens and therefore I thought that this may be...

    Here's an interesting one re Updates and VIN numbers

    Here is an interesting one. In my past posts, most of you will know that I have been waiting for my Dealer - Perry's of Preston to sort out the BMS 2020 and HVB Fuse Updates as these should have been done during the Pre-delvery checks. Evidently problems existed at Perrys in Preston not having...

    Pre Registered MGZS EV Claimed to be the cheapest in the country

    Just come across this on YouTube posted just 5 days ago, which is good information regarding Pre Registered Cars and being careful if you are buying for a business with regards to what HMRC will class a pre-reg car as tax wise. But most importantly, I felt sick when I saw the prices of the MG...
