    Considering Switching from MG5 LR (old version) to the new ZS Trophy. Any thoughts, advice?

    Have the LR for 2 years and it's been reliable and the range has been fine. Generally a decent car, but I really could do with some of the smart features in the newer models. My kids are coming out of the push chair phase so I can afford to lose a little space in the boot. But wondering if...

    Battery percentage and range not dropping.

    Charged overnight and the battery was 66% when I got in the car in the morning. I've driven 8 miles so far today in 5c temps in a mix of normal and sport mode with the heating on at 24. The battery has remained at 66% and the range hasn't dropped. Is it just being weird post charge last night...

    My Miles/Kwh is not looking great!

    Today I have driven 8 miles, never going above 40 and I am averaging 3.0. I didn't think I was particularly heavy footed and I have been in Eco. What am I doing wrong? :) Help me seasoned EV owners, it's only my 5th day!!

    First public charging experience

    Not gonna lie, wasn't perfect. First stopped at Reading Eastbound services, both chargers being used and nobody around. So decided to keep driving. Stopped at Mereoak Lane park and ride where there were two empty Charge Your Car points. Couldn't use contactless so downloaded the app. The app...

    Thinking about getting a dashcam hardwired into my new LR. Was hoping some of you might have done this and could share the placement? With the large rear view mirror I'm torn where would look tidy and not interfere with my view. Any suggestions? ps probably gonna get Halfords to fit it as I...

    Pulling out of a PCP deal before the car has arrived?

    The car that was due early next month is now due late November and I have managed to find the same model available at a different dealership where it's physically in stock. I know it's likely to annoy the dealer, but aside from losing my deposit, is there any other financial penalty I might...

    Changing Mileage for PCP

    I've got a MG5 coming in October and have signed the PCP agreement for 8k miles a year. However I have a feeling that this might be a little tight once my wife starts using the car for work. About 300 mile a year margin of error. Am I in a position to change the PCP agreement before delivery...

    MG Pilot stop and go. How long stopped before you need to re-engage?

    I couldn't get an answer from the dealership about this for the MG5 but knowing you ZS owners already have it, thought I would ask you. So as the title, when you're doing MG Pilot and you're stopped behind another car, how long is it roughly before you need to press the pedal to get it to start...

    MG5 Exclusive Sunroof?

    I've been looking at reviews that keep mentioning a sunroof in the MG5 Exclusive model. At the dealership I didn't see any models of the MG5 with a sunroof. Are the reviews wrong? I also can't see any mention on the official MG website.

    Trying to decide between Ohme and Zappi home chargers for MG5

    I am hoping to go for the Go Faster tariff in November when my British Gas Fixed tariff ends. Can both of these chargers charge on a schedule without issue? Anyone got experience of either they'd be willing to share?
