    MG5 Trophy Service Plan

    That there would be an additional charge as the service plan would not cover the full cost of the service.

    MG5 Trophy Service Plan

    Just had a call from.my local MG garage in Brechin asking for an additional £35 as the service plan does not cover the service. I have refused to pay any additional costs as the service plan was taken out to cover all three years servicing. Anyone else had this odd request just before the car...

    MG5 LR & zappi home charger

    I have only had the Zappi 2 fail to charge my MG5 (SR) on one occasion. This was because the charging cable did not lock into position when I locked the car. I now listern to make sure the charging connector to the car locks and I have not had a problem since. I got Octopus Energy to install my...

    MG5 owners only. Post on here what you think of the car.

    Well I have gone from Jaguar XF Sportbrake to the MG5. No it dies not have all the nice bits you get in a Jaguar but I have to say the built in Sat Nav is better than the Jaguar's, it maybe slow to start up but it works well once you and running. Android auto is an easy option I dis not have on...

    Which wall charger?

    Octopus Energy charged me £747 less the £300 Energy Savings Trust grant that we get in Scotland. They fit Ohms Chargers and others as well which are much cheaper. Contact Octopus Energy Group [email protected]

    What car did you replace with your MG?

    I replaced a Jaguar XF Sportbrake. As it only covered 3000 miles last year it was sadly not getting enough use. The MG has a better Sat Nav than the Jaguar, good enough Stereo and heated seats. The MG cannot be used to practically travel long distances yet but we use a Motorhome for that as all...

    MG5 owners only. Post on here what you think of the car.

    To start with the car is "Great Value" sure other EV's have more features but the MG5 is as big as my VW Golf Estate 2.0 GTD and its quicker! Running cost will be very low. We have solar panels and Octopus Go faster so charging will be cheap or free. I knew about the roof rails before I...

    Other 5s on the road..

    We picked up our MG5 on 12/03/21 and have only covered 360 miles. Only seen 1 MG5 and that was from the dealer network! I think you will see more as lockdown lifts. Its cheaper than a Golf Estate and no doubt a few others.

    MG5 & YouTube EVM

    As most people will see they found it hard to find anything negative about the MG5. Like any car it's a personnal choice. Roof bars are really the only thing that is a genuine marketing error. I knew about the roof bars before ordering and the SAT Nav is as good as my Jaguar XF Sportbrake! So...
