    Rear seatbelt sockets

    Does anyone else find it awkward how the rear seatbelt sockets sink into the hole in the upholstery? It makes it really fiddly fastening my daughter in (she's in a booster seat). I've sort of helped by wrapping bubble-wrap around it, to keep it pushed out of the hole. But it's still not great...

    Indications for using battery heating (now the weather is getting colder)

    Does the bug affect cabin pre-heat, battery pre-heat or both? I decided to do a battery pre-heat this morning. Started it 90 minutes before departure; app said it was on. Looked again 30 minutes before departure and app said it was off.

    ABRP (A Better Route Planner) Range

    We drove Warwick to Legoland Windsor and back yesterday in our MG4 Trophy . ABRP advised me it was a total of 167 miles, and that starting at 100%, we'd get home on 5%. Or we could charge in Bicester for 7 minutes, adding 20 minutes to the total journey time, to get home on 12%. What actually...

    Home charger on a 5amp house?

    I probably ought to ask on a non-brand-specific EV forum, or just an electrician's forum, but hey, I've got an account here :) My sister-in-law is considering a salary-sacrifice lease, which would be great for her I think. But she said "I'd have to get a hybrid, because I can't charge here and...

    MG4 Trophy + Ohme Home Pro + Intelligent Octopus

    First long trip in MG4

    I know people have previously reported on their "long trip" experiences, and having had the MG4 a couple of months going no further than 60 miles from home, I was looking forward to seeing what sort of experience taking it on holiday would be. Warwick to Seaton in Devon. Actually only 160...

    Ohme - one charger, one account

    Just had my Ohme Pro charger fitted. It seems - just like MG iSmart - it's linked to one account, and one account only. So my wife and I will need to share a login and password. And I've signed up with Google, which means we can't even do that. In general -- this is just unacceptable, isn't...

    Home charger or not?

    New UK MG4 Trophy owner. I'm really conflicted about whether to stump up for a home charger or not. We do between 260 and 360 miles a week, except when we have weekends away My wife takes the car to work (20 miles each way) - there's free 20kW charging there, and it seems as if there's no...
