I recently posted a message on the forum about my MG ZS EV. It was 4 years old and before September had been a great car but after that it had spend 9 weeks at MG and 8 weeks on my drive. I kept having it back because MG couldn't find anything wrong with it and a week or 2 later it would break...

Hi all, I bought my MG ZX EV in December 2019 and until August 2019 I was very pleased with it. However, since September 2023 it has spent 11 weeks at the dealership in Redditch and I have had the vehicle for 8 weeks. Not what I bought the car for. All the lights come on when I attempt to start...

Thanks Kithmo, I thought it was probably straightforward.

Hello all, Does anyone know how to disable the digital speedo on the ZS EV please or is it obvious? Sue

I too would like a dash cam. I asked my dealer about 18 months ago and was quoted £500. I thought that was rather steep so didn't proceed with it.

I went to Chester Zoo last August which is about 100 miles from home. There were over 20 charge points and no facility to pre book which is ok. The charge was £3 for 3 hours but of course being a zoo you are likely to be there for that length of time anyway. I was very impressed.

Thank you all for your advice, information and input. I will ask my friend about his Volvo. He's actually my mentor as I'm taking my Masters in advanced driving and you're expected to how everything in the car works. Personally I'm with Sido on the gadget front. I went to an IAM meeting...

Thank you, that sounds reasonable. My friend, who was in the car with me at the time drives a Volvo and assures me that this does not happen with his car, so thought I would ask. I'll stick to using it on the motorway.

Hi guys, I've never used cruise control in any vehicle before but decided to try it out on my ZS EV last week. I was driving along an A road with a 50 mph speed limit which was a bit bendy at times but nothing that bendy to necessitate not driving at the speed limit. While driving along this...

Thanks Vipar, I'll take a look there.

I see a few of you mention dash cams. When I asked MG I was told it would cost £500, does anyone know of a cheaper recommended model?

My ZS EV has just had it's second service and after driving 14000 miles the tread has only reduced by 2mm. There is also very little wear and tear on brake pads etc. This shown other ways in which an electric vehicle can be cheaper to run in more ways than one. I was well impressed.

Thanks for the info about the dehumidifier bags from eBay, I've just ordered some.

It is the IAM course. I took my test in August and am now looking at taking the Masters next. I really enjoyed the course too. Have yhou put in for your test yet?

Ultimately, it is the driver's responsibility to adhere to the speed limit. There is after all a clock to tell you your speed. I have noticed that if the camera is dirty it is unable to "see" the speed limit. This also happens if you are driving into bright sun. Also if the speed limit sign is...

I bought my ZS EV in 2019 and my experience is that the range on a full charge in the winter is approximately 178 and in summer 220 however, in reality you would get about 2/3 of this depending on your driving style. My results are for mixed driving with no heating on. There is a new MG coming...

It is the IAM course but no specifics for EVs. As you say it's the driver's responsibility and I'm not convinced all these gadgets are a good idea, just more to distract you from concentrating on your driving. I'm enjoying the course though and would recommend it to every one.

I've noticed that you can't rely on it for telling you the right speed limit so I only use it as a guide. Not worth being booked for speeding is it? I'm taking my advanced driving course so I am noticing these things more.

I bought my MG EV ZS in December 2019 and I too tend to suffer with range anxiety, but I am trying to stick with it for all our benefit. While I was walking through Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter yesterday it made me realise that I really am doing the right thing. We all get accustomed to...
