EV Grant Gov Doc If you have an order in you should be fine.

I bought my MG5EV LR from Craig at Gallaghers. Very simple transaction, smooth experience, helpful staff and a generous test drive time. Easy to deal with. Thanks again.

Guess-o-meters are just that. I drive M56/M6 and mixed A/B roads and work off the battery percentage rather than focus too much on the GOM. I would say the advertised range is very fair compared to other EV brand over- estimates. Anyway, I did my first charge to 100% yesterday to balance the...

Biffo post about half way down

MG MAZE Mods move if required 😇

I think MG know they could sell all their MG5s without Affinity. They might have generated enough interest partly due to the Affinity scheme and partly to the perceived good value of a decent range car. At a guess MG might also want to put the price point nearer to the facelift model when it...

@Neil Very true. They are very effective heated seats. I just hope the switch never gets stuck in the on position 😉

I have a similar experience when I turn the heater on to demist in the morning. The car is only a couple of weeks old, but I assume it is just heated lubricant on plastic parts being blown through.

That’s perfect

The majority of cars use CCS. CCS V2G will be a while according to CharIN, it has said it will be 2025 before it can support V2G. The used Leaf is something I thought about but I live outside the trial region (Midlands afaik). Anyway in my usage case a Tesla Powerwall took 27.7 years to repay...

Mrs Caldosan loves my new MG5 and whilst she is a Mini fan, is underwhelmed by their electric offerings. A new MG3 EV might just turn her away from the dark side into the light.

That’s very interesting, the beam pattern was very similar. Ordered a pair. WTS Osrams.

Step by step bulb change. You can choose your own bulb style of course. You are all grown ups. LEDs look different but connectors are the same. If you get to MOT time and the bulbs you have insisted upon are inappropriate (allegedly m’lud) then swap to the originals which you kept safe all...

Looks good biffo 👌

Certainly an option. Not sure if it’s making the Bluetooth part redundant though. With the usb attachment you just use Siri anyway to control maps Spotify WhatsApp conversations and so on.

Thanks for that, that’s very informative. I will take a look at mine and pop some copper grease on them as you describe this weekend. Nice one Alb.

I am relaxed so between us universal karmic balance is restored 😇

Yes that’s the one thanks for the help, tried to edit and failed to link again

I can’t find the original thread but someone was pointing out that a standard usb connector to the CarPlay USB port fouled the smooth closure of the sliding cover. Can confirm that this style works well, doesn’t obstruct the lid closure and at 0.6 m long reach the side pocket into which you can...
