Thanks for this, just sorted mine after a silent journey from Southampton to Bristol 👍🏻

One thing I've just remembered, frustratingly the P on the gear selector has started to peel causing a rough edge.

What charger do you have? I can schedule my Podpoint to fit with the off peak. I would struggle to pay the public charger prices (mentally, not financially!). As you say, the cost of the MG along with the range of the LR was the big draw for me - as my missus is NHS we got a big discount under...

I was paying 6.4p kwh, which went up to 9.4p kwh. I'm hoping there may be a slight drop around the corner 🤞

A E Wilcox & Sons in Wickwar, South Glos are chucking the franchise in due to the unrealistic targets and compliance. They are a small family business and already have Citroen, and have changed franchises a few times and will always survive due to a loyal customer base.

Not wanting to tempt fate, but my 5 LR has been excellent over two and a half years and covered 41k. As others have said, if I didn't have a home charger it wouldn't be viable as the running costs would be higher my Jag XF that I chopped in. Frustrating thing is that the residuals have dropped...

It wasn't meant to be smug, I'm just a realist and work on the law of averages.

I don't think any of our MG's are at risk to be honest! To be seen cruising on the west side with the tunes banging in a 5 with your homies, and trying to outrun the feds wouldn't do your street cred much good! 😁

If you use the ACC, you'll use the brakes anyway as you're panicking as you hurtle towards a stationary vehicle in front! Having said that, when driving normally the car seems to spot things as a hazard and slams the brakes on for no reason 🙄

The main thing here is, you are responsible for remembering to tax, mot and insure your car along with everything else in life that has an expiry date! 🙄

Much as I hate British Gas, their tariffs haven't been bad over the last 2 years. My previous tariff ended in July, can't remember all the exact numbers except night rate electric at 6.4p. Its all gone up now on the new tariff by around 50%, so night rate 9.4p but the joy is there's no exit...

Evening all! My MG5 LR 2021 with 33k gear selector knob has started to peel and become rough to the touch. Currently awaiting feedback from the local MG retailer - anybody else's suffering the same? Really frustrating as everything else has held up well.

We left our MG5 LR 2021 for 2 weeks whilst cruising - no issues for us?

Apologies to all those who are saying that they've got in excess of 50kw, but pre face-lift MG5 will only allow it to charge at 50kw. I think you're being hoodwinked 🤭

Currently on British Gas EV tariff which ends at the end of the month. Currently paying 6.5ppkwh between midnight and 5am which plenty for us using podpoint 7kw charger and we do 400pw, mainly motorway and averaging 4 miles pkwh in the summer and around 3.4 during the winter. Costs around a...

I don't think your thoughts will come to fruition tbh. Same as you, LR Exclusive albeit 71 plate and we do some miles so currently saving on fuel, but when you factor in the depreciation the TCO is horrendous and I think you'd have more chance of restarting Tutankhamun's heart than resurrecting...

Between October last year and this March, my Cazoo valuation dropped from £26k to £12.5k inc mileage adjustments. Forget the cost of charging and if its cheaper than FF, with depreciation like this I wouldn't buy another.

I'm assuming others are using their cars on local, relatively short journeys but over a longer period than me. My MG5 LR pre face-lift usually returns c3.6 mpkwh on a 400 mile weekly commute predominantly motorway between Bristol and Gloucester

Interesting thread. Which models are you driving and what mpkwh are you getting?

We do 400 miles a week, but I zero every morning when I've recharged and at the mo getting around 3.6 but will expect an increase as the weather warms up. As others have said, if you let it go 1000's before resetting, changes in reported mpkw will be infrequent. Off to Southampton tomorrow with...
