    MG5 Second Service

    My MG5 is coming up to its second service at just over 20k miles. Just had a quote from Glyn Hopkin for £380. This seems outrageous to me. Anyone had similar experiences?

    Charged EV - Warning

    Warning about using Charged EV - This is a warning to all considering using this company and especially their Indra Smart Pro charger. I made the big mistake of having one of these fitted over 2 years ago. It ain't a pro and it is certainly not Smart! It worked for a year then developed...

Theoretically we should be able to do this on one charge but I had my suspicions that this would not be possible - I was proved right! I planned to...

    Sat Nav advice

    I love Sat Nav on cars and use it all the time. The system on my MG5LR is not the best - lots of information but I find fiddly to use, but I will persevere.

    Charging at home well below 7kwhr

    Can I limit charging to 80% and if so how?

    Can I limit charging to 80% and if so how? I have a MG5 LR exclusive. This is my second EV after a 40kw Leaf. There is much talk about charging regularly only up to 80%. I seldom do very long journeys so I could easily manage on this. I am with Octopus Go and my smart charger automatically...
