    Is The MG4 The Most Enjoyable Car To Drive That You Have Owned.

    I second this, had a P38 range rover 2.5d for a while and it was an joy to drive. Though it was in the garage more than on the road due to an unscrupulous previous owner bodging everything. I love the MG4 though, only complaint would be more boot space, but I am used to large SUVs

    MG4 easy to steal?

    It's not just signal boosters to worry about, it's signal decrypters/cloning tools and signal spoofers. Seen CCTV videos of 100k cars getting stolen by one man with an iPad/laptop and a signal receiver. It's pretty scary stuff. Especially since most new cars above even a fairly low price...

    May I introduce you to @Rolfe , she has a detailed comprehension of the SE and it's 'quirks', and even some workarounds.

    MG4 X-Power waiting area

    Is this the norm? Or was it a particularly bad winter? 2010 etc.

    MG4 X-Power waiting area

    Winter tyres are definitely advised in winter in Norway, as is carrying chains, so much so that it's the law. 4wd does make a nice difference on top of these things though. More drive wheels = more control. Us in the north - England/Scotland will generally get by with winter tyres and maybe...

    MG4 Alarm

    No, it doesn't - the UK spec doesn't anyway can't say for certain about other places.

    Trophy owners - can you disable automatic door locking at 10 mph?

    Not being able to turn the Auto-lock off I'd say is definitely a bug in the SE, as you say - why have the feature at all - if it's down to cost it would be cheaper without it. The lack of memory function (folder playlists) and usability for the USB music source, is a bug across all specs, but...

    Trophy owners - can you disable automatic door locking at 10 mph?

    Just FYI on my Trophy R24, the radio/usb music does start as soon as the drivers door is opened and driver sits down - as long as you didn't pause it before leaving the car last. So it does remember this. The fact it doesn't remember on the SE though, is still a bug I'd say.

    MG4 X-Power waiting area

    I've seldom seen Tesla's (for example) doing more than the limit.. and some of them are rockets as we know. Why would it be different with the 4wd MG4? Now white vans on the other hand, they must be the fastest thing on the road, because no matter what speed you're going, there always seems to...

    MG4 X-Power waiting area

    I've translated it to English to help others 😁 edit Ian beat me by 10 seconds 😅 "I'm from Shanghai and I got the AWD version of my MG4 (MULAN) last week. The prices are unbelievable and there are a few things I can share. 1. The brake calipers are the same as the rear drive version, the orange...

    What would make public charging better for you..?

    The difference in price between chargers is mental, even some offering the same speed charger from free to 30p/kWh then others charging 69p for the same kWh and same speeds. If a petrol station was charging more than double, people definitely wouldn't use it and it would either go under or...

    Dead car

    No I totally agree, it shouldn't drain it - I was just reminding yourself and others for future reference - every time you lock/unlock/connect via app/Ready - it consumes 12v battery. So a 12 battery that hasn't had a chance to charge back up, and is running at a low SOC, will only get lower...

    Summer's here.

    He's not very well liked among .. well anyone I can think of. And I can see why, he doesn't help the stigma attached to being a cyclist one bit.

    Dead car

    Bear in mind each time you connect to the app to view the car it wakes the car up and consumes the 12v battery.

    Amazon Music

    I agree, and it also stops unruly passengers from realising they can change your song without you being able to do anything about it

    What would make public charging better for you..?

    For me personally, most of the public charging I'm likely to use (90% of the time) would be destination chargers for a top up on the go.. I'd like to see; •More chargers, •Cheaper Rates & Capped prices - 5% VAT •'EV Charging Only' - Enforced, •Wider Bays, •Contactless on all...

    Amazon Music

    I've seen no mention at all of Alexa within the car, usually you have to agree to T&C's and agree to set up Alexa if you use it on a device. I think Amazon Music (via infotainment) is only controllable via touch buttons and the MG voice commands (Next Song, Skip Song etc. Via Android Auto it...

    iSMART app v1.1.2 available

    The driver side is now shown on the right, however MG Touchpoint still doesn't work and still shows a background of Berlin with the 'loading' wheel of doom. If I was part of the development team working on this app, I'd be embarrassed.

    Volvo EX30 thoughts

    It is subjective, I agree, each to their own and all that. We get the car we like because we like it. But I do think the SE looks like it needs finishing off on the rear.. that could be because I prefer the spoiler personally
