Was at Gridserve Rugby on way back from Yorkshire yesterday and had the HV disconnect for the first time. That was after trying to get the car charged on four separate chargers. Stuck there with the bonnet up, decided to try the 10mm spanner reset and luckily it worked. Tried a different...

I feel your pain. I have mine back and it 's good but in the back of my mind is will I replace it with another MG. I'm approaching 2 years of the lease and with some cars I'll need to start ordering a replacement car soon, if I want to swap in a years time!

Thursday 5th January 2023, a date to go down in history, finally took delivery of my car from repair, oh so nice to get out of the poxy little Corsa ICE courtesy car, another 2 weeks and it would have made a whole year away.. It's a lovely car but after accident treatment by contractors and...

Yes similar, two youngsters in the car, drugs paraphernale all over the car, keys in it "Stolen" from the middle aged gents house, kept the car parked around the corner not on his driveway so didn't see it was gone, his son staying with friends in London. They know how to play the Police but...

Again, lucky to get him, the driver and passenger hoofed it from the scene before I even got out of the car.

Quite quick compared to mine, lucky you

Thanks for the info on untraced driver, I will approach the insurers to find out why they haven't at least looked into this.

Bad to worse, 06 Oct 22 advised by the lease company that the repair to my car is a "fault claim" against my insurance, apparently if you're hit by someone who has "stolen" a vehicle and absconded from the seen, it is not covered by the "owners" insurance as it is them that's insured not the...

Parts were due to arrive on 22nd, didn't now they say they're due on the 30th, shall I hold my breath, not a chance. Had an email from my third account manager on the 2nd Sep basically telling me what has happened over the time period, as if I didn't know and to expect a call from their...

See my EV Repairs post, I have not seen my car for 8 months.

Completely put me off having an MG again. Shame because the car, when I had it, was great.

1st of September and still no car, apparently waiting for spares still, this time they say it is a Chrome bumper insert, never mentioned before. I've informed the lease company that as the repairers have had the car longer than I've had it to drive, I've finally had enough and to cancel the...

They don't advertise their spares issue when you order one. Off the forecourt and money in the bank, ask if they could order the two missing bits and request them airmailed instead of waiting for a shipping container and they look at you as if you've invented a wheel!

A repairer appointed by the insurance company, not an MG garage or specialist, unfortunately being a lease, the leasing company pt it wherever they could. It took them four garages before this one would even take it.

Well they announced on 27th June that the car went into paint. WooHoo thinks I must be the final stage, No on the 4th July they said it was still in paint awaiting parts. Apparently when it got to paint, they found other things wrong and have had to order more parts. Now the message has...

Apparently my car is now in "Panel" being repaired, however, it's still awaiting delivery of a suspension mounting bolt from China and even when that is fixed an engineer has to come in from MG to reinitialise all the electrics and carry out software updates. The 18th will be the six month...

Well here we are in May and the anniversary of my getting the MG5 passed by on the 6th. Had two messages from the repairers on the 4th and 9th saying the car is "in Strip" so I'm hoping this means that all the parts have finally arrived. Hopefully they haven't found anything else they need...

My leasing company had the option to choose MG servicing or cheaper option of their approved servicing dealer. As it was cheaper to lease with the second option I took it. Although I have not reached the first service milage yet, inpart due to it being in for repairs after a shunt since...

Spares from China, a couple of weeks, my MG5 EV was attacked by an upstart Nova and the repairers have been waiting since Mid-January, with still no delivery date on the horizon.

And so another month has passed and still waiting for parts. Won't be too long before the cost of the courtesy (hire) car will reach the write off cost. Not what I want as I would then have to wait another 6-9 months for a replacement. Sorry MG but if it did happen I would seriously think of...
