Och that’s just a copy/ paste of the email I got about the turbo I fitted on the model T.

That’s a lot o’ frunk.

I did make a frunk for the ZS and found it was useful but only ever kept the charging cable in it. So since I changed to the five estate I’ve just coiled the cable on top of the “engine” cover without any problems. It rarely gets disturbed as most of my charging is done at home on the Rolec...

Sounds like an interesting project. I can’t help you in any way but if you don’t mind I’ll sit back and watch what transpires on this one. Good luck with it.

Good informative meeting at Castleview, Stirling. Nice to catch up with Edoc, Bloggsy and Ferbie at the fabulous Scottish Coffee (less) Meet. The weather and the venue were excellent and the company was terrific, thankyou gentlemen. Many topics and details discussed about our fantastic shining...

T Try sitting at the roadside in the rain staring at a freshly shredded nearly new tyre through your anguished tears on a dark night - I have. You’ll be glad you paid ANYTHING for a proper spare tyre 😩

I’ve always preferred Michelins. I had two punctures in 260,000 miles in my first Maestro turbo diesel van (and three or four front wheel bearings). No other faults and sold it as a running vehicle! One or two other punctures with various vehicles over my fifty something years of driving. But...

Nice work Biffo, thanks for that. Saves poor old eyes squinting at the printed version and attempting to prevent the pages breaking free 👌. Archie

Hello - yes the pictures above show my ZS EV frunk set up with a “really useful” 10 litre box from Amazon bolted to an aluminium T shaped bracket bolted into the holes in the front bonnet landing and supported at the back scuttle panel screw. Looks like James used a deeper box for his MG 5 car...

Hello there ethansdad, yes the wheels and tyres look identical and have the same markings on them and the jacks, compressors and things are the same. I wish I’d researched it a bit better before jumping in and buying the new one 🤦‍♂️

No I’ve only advertised it here in the classified ads. I bought it for my ZS but then fairly soon afterwards changed it for a long range 5. I understood the wheels were different so I bought a factory spare kit for that. It seems the only difference is the foam carrier that fits the underfloor...

Hi Shwd mae - here’s a picture I’ve just taken of the ZS kit I have for sale

I had a similar setup in my ZS and found the idea to be excellent. It kept the type 2 cable right where you need it - at the front beside the charge socket. I removed it when I traded the car for the LR5 three weeks ago but haven’t managed to get round to spend time investigating under the...

Oh no - I was under the impression it was a different sized wheel - I haven’t actually checked but I shall do and report back later. At least both kits fit beautifully into their respective car’s wheel well 🤷‍♂ I’ve still got the pristine complete kit for sale for a ZS if anyone wants the...

Virtually no effect on the range measurable in my experience. But the effect on the nerves of not having a spare and ripping a tyre is immeasurable (see the picture of my tyre torn by a rock in the middle of nowhere) spare wheel every time for me please.

Yes thanks - it’s already on there.

Hello - I’ve replaced my ZS with a 5LR for the extra range. I bought a spare wheel kit for it on the day we collected the new car. So I now have an unused complete genuine space saver spare wheel kit for the ZS model. It’s for sale if anyone is interested.

I can’t think the gunk fills holes this size The costs and effort of getting another tyre fitted at that location on that wet and windy day would have convinced anyone to carry a spare wheel (photo taken later that day at the tyre fitters with me in tears when he told me he couldn’t patch so I...

After a year of faultless and punctureless ownership, I took the car to the dealer (Fraser of Falkirk ) for its service and the comfort update. As I was paying I asked if they’d order me a spare wheel and red touch- up paint. I couldn’t believe it when ten minutes later I was driving off in a...
