An update to my last posting in January on this subject. My dealer in Brisbane was unable to get a genuine MG ZS EV space saver. Apparently not imported to Australia. After further research I found an alternative with similar specs out of a wrecked 2012 VW Golf GTi. The RIM is an R18 with...

I found this space saver from auto recycler. It's from a VW Golf GTi. I did a trial fit and everything lined up; same PCD (112mm) Bolt Pattern and Central Bore (57.1mm). The tyre fitted to the 18" rim is a 125 70 R18. which is the closest matching Dia/Radius to the standard tyres. I get most of...

My window film is RAYNO brand Phantom S9 Series. The Infrared Rejection percentage was higher than what 3M supply. Basically the top spec.

I purchase my car in Brisbane, Queensland. The owners manual has this statement in regard to Warranty: To access a detailed parts and warranty statement please see the appropriate countries' MG website. Below is a link to the Australian owners warranty info. https://mgmotor.com.au/owners/warranty/

The GS & HS wheel OD's are larger at 686mm compared with the ZS EV's at 647mm.

I ordered a space saver spare for my MG ZS EV through my dealer in Brisbane when I collected the car in November 2020. I'm still waiting on delivery of the spare, expected in February. The space saver hub (rim) is the same as supplied with the GS and HS models which is an R16 and has the same...

Hi Umad, Welcome to the group. This is certainly the place to find the answers to everything to do with the ZS EV. I live in Brisbane (Queensland), where the temperature gets really hot. I took delivery of my new ZS EV five weeks ago. Prior to getting all the side windows and rear applied with...

Tom from "Tom's Man Shed" Youtube channel helps to explain the technical aspects of his ZS EV's Acoustic vehicle alerting system (AVAS) in a post titled "MG ZS EV Pedestrian Alert Sound Tested" Link Here

Agree! Prior to the ZS EV coming on the scene. I was considering waiting a couple of years for the Tesla Model Y, to arrive (here in Australia) then replace our aging Audi Q5 (diesel). Siting in the ZS (albeit the petrol version) was not all that dissimilar to the ambiance of the Audi. OK the...

"Tom's Man Shed" Youtube channel has a very informative review of the VIOFO A129 PRO DUO (dash and rear cam) plus a full installation into his MG ZS EV. Tom presents a good argument for going the 4K way. URL below:

Here in Australia, first deliveries expected before Xmas. The excitement builds!

This is the update advice issued to MG Authorized Repairers & Distributors in Europe about the same time.

Here in Australia when you get flashed by an oncoming vehicle it usually means that they are warning you about a police radar speed trap ahead. You don't normally get cross with that ?

Yes agree. One of the reasons for my choosing the MG EV over the other models on offer was its ability to carry a spare wheel (albeit a space saver) and jack in the boot without encroaching too much on boot space. Puncture repair kits will not solve a blowout on the open road. I guess I'm old...

If MG had a referral system similar to Tesla to reward existing owners who get referenced by new buyers, then I'm sure Mike would be clocking up many free miles in his MG ZS EV!

AliExpress offer an LED daytime running light option to replace the standard fog lights on the ZS ICE version which already has the wiring harness. I'm not familiar with the physical differences between the lower grill of each model (ICE and EV) but it may be a possible alternative. Would...
