I have bought a Renault Megane E Tec just before Xmas from a Reno dealer so it carries the full warranty (5yrs car/8yrs battery), it was some sort of a loan/default snatch back car, 8mths old, 2,800mls and after some wheeling and dealing including £1000 cash back for taking out finance, which I...

Hi everyone I have sold my MG5 excl LR and bought a more expensive European car. I am keeping my fingers crossed it will be as reliable as my 2 MGs have been. So any way I have some parts spare for sale for MG5/ZS owners. I have ‘Eagle 1200 Roof bars’ MG5 only? used once to bring some ladders...

I own a MG5lr and also a 38 Kwh Ioniq, it has a built in auto demist function (ADS) to keep windows clear. People on the Ioniq forums complain about it! They don't like the cold air the system pushes into the cabin to clear the misting up problem. The Ford Focus and the Skoda Citigo come up in a...

Glad to help Keith. My neighbours Skoda Fabia’s had a slow puncture on its o/s/r and the wheel was so badly stuck, we had to remove the wheel bolts and leave the thing jacked up all night soaked in penetrating oil. The wood block and lump worked after the soaking in the end, mind your knuckles...

Its a common problem, copper slip grease will stop it happening. I've just done the F/Brake pads on my mates Reno Kadjar 69 plate the fronts were stuck fast, so a soak with penetrating oil spray and a lump hammer and a block of wood worked in the end. My nieghbours Skoda had the same issue last...

Hi thanks for the reply. Its not a belief Tsedge is it? I agree that it will take time to change over but we were already moving in the right direction in 2010. Then the present government promised to be the greenest government ever but that lasted just 2yrs. Do you remember D. Cameron was at a...

Thanks for the info Les I will be sticking with the Gen1, but you never know. It will take time for us to transition so it’s a shame our Government decided to slow down any attempt to modernise our energy needs over 10yrs ago. Cameron said in 2012 ’We are going to get rid of the green crap’ and...

This lie about the new oil licenses must be exposed, the oil they will get from these new wells will go straight onto the world market it will NOT be just for us to use. How long will the developement of these wells take, will they help us now, no. This Government has held up the transition away...

Thanks for the reply Les I understand that not everyone can change to an EV at the moment, we couldn’t supply enough new ones anyway, so your post is very relevant. A friend has a Merc hybrid he was admiring the wife’s Hyundai Ioniq he was complaining he only gets 16mls from his battery. The...

We often forget the many aspects to the REAL COST of fossil fuels. The Oil security wars for instance or how about the transportation from all parts of the world, those Huge Oil tankers or refineries enrgy use for instance. But we still carry on regardless, we don’t care about pollution, rivers...

Why should they do anything about it? Its called governance, that’s what they are supposed to do. But since 2015 our government has given nearly £80billion in subsidies to fossil fuel companies! We could easily stop that and instead spend that kind of money on the charging infrastructure and...

Did people miss the the crash test onthe Atto 3 in the vid and the order from the Australian Government on the children's seat anchorages is totally damning. It also seems that the BYD Han (hopefully) hasn't got the Blade Battery as it has had somequite serious FIRES so lets hope that is the...

Here'sa utube vid on the BYD Dolphin vs MG4 in Australia. Oh my BYD is notdoing well down under.

It will also play FLAC files if you want a higher quality and it plays MP4 movies too but not on the move.

People nowadays will lie about who was at fault in any claim. I had a guy run into my o/s /r quarter panel on my MG ZS in his big Merc and he was very apologetic, he offered to pay to fix it etc but I went with my insurance. Next thing he claims I changed lane on the roundabout! My dash cam...

I liked the BYD Atto 3 when first announced but the price seems high for me, once Chinese car prices become near European EV prices I am not so interested, especially with current political turmoil. The 2 MGs I have owned have been really cheap compared to the opposition. Both costing less than...

Could I offer an alternative suggestion to this thread I know this doesn't give you rear speakers but some people may just want improve their overall sound quality. I have replaced the front speakers in both my MGs (ZS/MG5), using the same units transferred, JBL GX602 165mm and I also fitted a...

I am on my 2nd MG and I also own an 38kw Ioniq, it has a built in Auto Demist Function (ADS) to keep windows clear. It seems many new cars have this problem, a quick google brought Skoda Citigo and the Ford Focus so there are others. The ADS system on the Ioniq blows cold air into the cabin...

You may already know about this podcast ' Everything Electric' with news from China, there is a small segment on the MG5 Taxis in China. Watch from 16:15min for the MG part. Its has Robert and Elliot from the Fully Charged Show discussing what name says.

All importers into this country have had to deal with the fall of the Pound and our high inflation rate. The British pound has lost 18% its value since 2021. Manufacturers have to make a profit or they go under so they have to put the prices up. I went to look at and test drive a Renault E...
