    Road Trip

    We’ve just completed the outbound leg of our first long road trip in the PHEV. Lots of researching and planning to get refuelled and recharged at the optimum locations along the way. The trip took us from Norfolk UK to Portsmouth where we refuelled then fully recharged on a PodPoint charger...

    Accessories

    AliExpress was recommended to me by a forum member (thanks Ian), for sourcing the many accessories that are becoming available for the HS. I downloaded the AliExpress app which was easy to use, and paid by PayPal. It took about two weeks to arrive, no import customs was payable. I can’t fault...

    Display freeze

    Had a new glitch today. Mid journey about 3 hours in, the display froze on the media page, audible navigation commands still working but no amount of button pushing would override the media display page. Pulled over and went straight for an infotainment system reset, press and hold the home...

    Boot mat - Finally! A verified source.

    After 7 months of searching I’ve finally verified a source for the illusive aftermarket PHEV Boot Mat. Thank you to all those forum members who guided me in the right direction, it was just a case of verifying the finished mat before I posted a link. There was confusion even from the...

    Heater thoughts

    My first winter with the PHEV and I thought I was going to be warm but stuck in hybrid mode most of the time, or no heating and wearing arctic clothing to allow EV mode to select. The reality has been much better, sure you need heating primarily to keep the windows clear. But the engine gets up...

    Precise granny charge cost

    Cosmetic enhancements

    Im sure the large expanse of black plastic below the rear number plate is necessary for some reason! Here’s my solution, £3.99 on eBay, gloss gel, domed, adhesive, fits the gap.

    Quality car mats for the HS PHEV

    I’m 3 weeks into HS PHEV ownership and deeply impressed. It came without car mats so I searched for high quality ones without success (the PHEV is a relatively new model and the floor pan is unique I believe). Undeterred I contacted an established car mat manufacturer “Unique car mats UK Ltd” in...

    Warranty whilst in Europe

    I’m on the verge of buying an HS PHEV, but awaiting an answer from the dealer on warranty cover whilst in Europe. Has anyone got experience of making a warranty claim whilst abroad? Is the warranty Europe wide? World wide? UK only. MG UK reply was that all warranty work must be authorised by a...
