    Using car battery as a power source at night.

    Apologies if this has been discussed already I'm unable to find anything on a quick search. I soiled my pants when I realised how much my heat and power cost are going up in August when my current deal ends (circa 400%). I'm now getting solar panels fitted and looking at heat pump installation...

    Flooded Roads and Electric Cars

    Rain is of biblical proportions down south these last few days and it's like fording a small river on some roads. Am I right in thinking electric cars have no problem with flooded roads unlike ICE which stall when the water is too deep?

    Insurance : ZS EV Trophy v MG5 short range like for like comparison

    I'm lucky enough to be exchanging my MG5 tomorrow. Usual sweaty moment when changing over insurance - I'm with LV Actual figures are irrelevant as it's dependant on individual circumstances.

    Wireless mobile phone charging

    Am I right in thinking you still need to hardwire for data transmission - i.e. Android Auto? If so the facility is not as useful as I thought. I'm not knocking the car if this is correct I'm sure it is common to all manufacturers and I only ask out of ignorance. It will also save me bothering...

    Zap map on car display

    Does anyone know if you can get zap map mirrored from an Android phone to the car display? I can get Waze, Google maps and Amazon etc but not zap map. Probably due to my ignorance so any help welcome and apologies if it's been asked before.

    Roof rails (again)

    Looking at the specs on the long range MG5 the roof rails have a 75kg weight limit. Has anyone seen if the high range MG has different high weight rails?

    Can the MG AA cover include other cars?

    I think the AA cover included with the service cost is a great extra. Has anyone tried to extend the cover to include a second owned vehicle - obviously for a top up cost?

    First long journey

    Had to drive from Havant (near Portsmouth) to Bethnal Green in London yesterday (with police approval). Round trip of 150 miles. Used eco setting for most of the journey and stuck to speed limits so I wasn't driving like 'Miss Daisy ' but close to it. Aircon was on economy auto at 20-22. Phone...

    Front and rear dash cams

    Hi, has anyone fitted a rear camera as well as a front? Halfords are doing a great deal with their own brand dash cam package at the moment but I am a bit concerned with issues with buyers in other vehicles getting interference with the rear cam and DAB radio. Evidently this can occur with the...

    Ordered my MG5 at the beginning of October and was told early December delivery

    Ordered mine at the beginning of October and was told early December delivery. After the order a £4000.00 scrappage scheme was introduced which the company agreed to include. Last week I was told 700 MG's will be in the country 1st week of December but the dealer was not sure if the model split...
