    Solar with battery, loving it!

    Yeah, I think you might be right. To be fair it’s probably just a generic quote but it is looking on the expensive side now.

    Solar with battery, loving it!

    That seems like excellent value. Octopus have just quoted me £11200 for 12 panels and one battery! Unfortunately our roof is split NW and SW. my neighbour (same roof) had panels fitted to both elevations but octopus have only quoted for one side at the moment. Going to speak to them next week...

    Update re. Looped electricity situation

    We were “unlooped” last month and they didn’t lay a second cable to my neighbour. Instead they dug a hole where the feed comes into the meter box, and added an underground junction to split off the neighbours supply before it comes out of the ground! I checked and they said it was fine having...

    No Charge flap open detection?

    Yep, did this once, proper downpour with the rubber bung out but it’s worked fine since so fingers crossed.

    Difficulty unlocking charge plug

    Might be worth hunting out the the emergency cable release - you have to remove the main plastic cover under the bonnet - once you've found it, extend it (I used a couple of zip ties) so you can reach it without having to remove the plastic cover! You're welcome. :-) Andy

    Charging port door not staying closed

    Just catching up on this as my port has similar issues. What I’m doing at the moment is pulling the catch back out as it’s definitely not springing out fully on its own (I have tried spraying it with silicone spray etc). When I pull it out it slightly rotates as well then always engages with...

    MG5 charging at TESLA chargeres

    I used them on my trip across France. First time the app wouldn't recognise the location - well it knew where we were and that there were chargers free but wouldn't recognise that I was selecting a charger - in the app! :-( Call customer services and they were very helpful and spoke great...

    Final jigsaw piece.... How far should I go up the Mway.

    Just to add to this, "A Better Route Planner" app is worth the investment to use with CarPlay in your car. Once you have an account and tell it your car, it can recommend places to stop depending on which options you choose. Personally, speed is makes a huge difference here, way more than with...

    1000 miles in...

    Sorry I missed this response. The new shocks didn't solve the knocking, they had it back to go over again but still not resolved. It sounds more and more like a cable knocking somewhere and definitely not suspension related. kind of given up now. :-(

    Mechanical knocking / popping noise coming from rear of MG5 Long Range

    My dealer haven’t said anything else but I’ll report back after taking out the technician in the new year. For prospective new owners, I wouldn’t worry too much. The car is great value for money and I’m very happy with it but also aware it’s a “cheap” car and corners have to be cut to get the...

    Rapid charge costs -another moan. 😡

    Just posted on the MG5 forum of our first longish drive in the Car but was really shocked at the cost of the rapid charger we used Near our destination. Just off the M11 at the Harlow exit (A414) there’s a BP garage that has two rapid chargers. This was perfect for my journey as we are staying...
