Posting this in a new thread but mentioned this on the Tesla self driving thread. Anyone else getting T1000 Terminator vibes?

I removed my foot rest today so that I could take some measurements from it, and hopefully create a revised version that is a different angle to be more comfortable. What a mess was lurking underneath it! Needless to say, it's been cleaned up. I also found a bit of liquid on the side of the...

Based on @KMC's recommendation I bought some Supagard Paintseal Cream. I used it on my wife's Polo last week, and today it was the turn of the MG4. I said it before, and I'll say it again, it's great stuff, and takes half the time to use compared with the Autoglym products I used to use. My...

So today I thought I'd test out the new Tesla Superchargers that have been installed at Burger King, Eastville, Bristol. These chargers are open to all EVs, and as forum members have pointed out, are the cheapest way of rapid charging when out and about. There are 8 350kW chargers here. I...

As we all know, Sainburys are rolling out Kempower rapid chargers to most of their supermarkets. They are certainly not hanging about getting it done in Bristol. It wasn't long ago they installed 8 of them at Sainburys Emersons Green, Bristol. Today I popped into Sainsburys Stoke Gifford...

Sunday morning well spent, cleaned inside and out. I do like the Supagard cleaning pack that came with the car. Have added some additional items over the past year to make cleaning a lot quicker and easier. Still got to try their Paint Seal cream that another member recommended.

After several months of testing I'm happy to release the car backseat organiser that I designed and 3D printed. Files for printing can be found here: MG4 Car backseat organiser by dsimpkins

I got a set of mud flaps for my MG4, and I've been out already and fitted them :D They were easy to fit, and I hope they stop the sides of the car getting quite so mucky, especially the sills. Did anybody else get any MG4 related gifts today?

I've added some extra USB ports to our MG4 to keep my daughters happy. Stop them fighting over the single USB port in the back. I bought a charger that plugs into the cigrette lighter socket in the front, and has an extension lead that provides two USB ports in the rear. I've run the cable...

Got sent this earlier: Contractors working for Osprey have this week begun installation of 16 ultra-rapid electric vehicle (EV) chargers at the Willow Brook Centre, Bradley Stoke. Previous article on the Bradley Stoke Journal website: Willow Brook Centre electric vehicle chargers approved at...

Dropped into Sainsburys supermarket at Emersons Green in Bristol this afternoon. I was pleasantly surprised to see they've added 8 150kW rapid chargers. No app for them, work via contactless or chip and PIN only. Easy and fast to use. They look like Osprey ones, but not branded as such.

I have now published the model files for these car boot hooks I made a while ago on Thingiverse if anyone wants to make their own. Full instructions and files can be found on this page MG4 Car boot hook I use mine for holding the bag with my Type 2 cable secure.

Some of you may have seen my previous post where I designed and 3D printed a car organiser to clip onto the rear of the front seat to provide cup holder and storage for my kids. Well it became clear that the design was flawed safety wise. In an accident the kids heads would have collided with...

Yesterday I needed to top up on a rapid charger to get home. I stopped at an Evyve charger, which is a brand I've not used before (mostly Instavolt or Osprey) Charging was fine, stuck about 30% charge in, and continued on my way. It used some of that charge getting home, and the displays...

The kids have been moaning about lack of cup holders in the back of our SE. I saw something similar on Amazon, and thought I can make that. So fired up the computer, and bashed this out on CAD, then printed it in PETG on my 3D printer. Clips to headrest and has a cup holder large enough for a...

I mentioned to my wife earlier that the trophy spec has a split level boot floor, and that you can use it for storing things like charging cables underneath, as well as having an almost level boot floor when the rear seats are folded down. She's now asking if it's possible to buy the parts to...

So an EV has just set the world record for longest distance driven underwater. See video below. Anyone up for attempting to break the record in an MG? ;)

While out and about inthe MG today, I saw our local fire station was offering car washes for donations to local search and rescue charity. So I decided to go and get the car washed. Before I had a chance to say stop, one of the fireman had lifted up my wipers, and yep, got a scratch on edge of...

On holiday in Devon and stopped at Buckfastleigh to top up at the Salmon's Leap Charging station. It's operated by Osprey and there are 16 rapid chargers, two of which are long bays for EV towing trailers. Reviews on ZapMap said it was effortless and the best charging station in UK. I have to...

Popped into a local Instavolt charging station earlier today. 5 chargers in total, 2 available. Plugged in, started charging, and went into the cafe there. A few minutes later checked the charging session it had stopped. When I went to investigate the power was out for the entire charging...
