I'm not sure things are how you are characterising them. The facts are MG are in a similar boat to a lot of traditional car companies that aren't doing OTA. It's down to the dealer to update your car. Pros and cons to OTA. That's all there is to it really.

What report?

The problem is that a few random YouTube videos tell us nothing. You could literally show a burning ICE car for every one of these incidents. You don't even know if the fires started in the battery itself. If it was accompanied by some solid stats and industry body comment, I'd be interested...

Lots of apps will give you live status plus augmented user reported info. I think if you have the Trophy Connect ZS the Nav shows live status as well - if you can bear slumming it with the builtin Nav. Plugshare is another one. Not all chargers share their live status data though.

That's probably because that's the speed range of most accidents. Plus, if they were launching cars at 70mph at concrete walls most accidents would probably show limited survivability.

I think there are cars that are on sale that haven't been tested. The MG ZS EV didn't have any rating for a while when it went on sale, and there were buyers. I think NCAP can just test cars without manufacturers involvement, so it makes sense for them to work with them as eventually you'd...

They can ask, but NCAP is a voluntary thing. Manufacturers use it to benchmark against a standard, pick up the stars and use it to sell cars. NCAP can't dictate, they measure/test and make recommendations. It would have to be mandated by VoSA or something and that's not going to happen until...

I would add to you list: avoid anything that needs apps/cards/magic to work. Filter anything out that doesn't use a debit card.

I have no objections as long as the systems are reliable. At the moment, many manufacturers have terrible lane keep assist system implementations that are actually dangerous. Which makes the situation perverse when it's a safety body dealing out stars on the basis of these things existing as a...

In fairness leases are much worse deals than they were a year ago.

It's not going to make any difference to your conspiracy theory assertion as it's still just a thread on its own...😄

Because the thread basically became a Vanarama thread as most of the people with the biggest issues were Vanarama, so admin moved it here. It made some sense at the time.

I believe Tusker customers have seen cars. Different setup though as I don’t think they do this weird block ordering thing that Vanarama and Octopus are doing. They are just processed by dealers as they come in.

Your question is laced with comments designed to provoke. I suggest if you are actually serious, you just go and buy the Yaris, and save yourself and everyone else the time.

Different opinions I like, arguing the toss with little to back it up, not so much.

What are you talking about? There was none of the sort. Mods please close the thread, this is getting silly.

The thread needs closing. I think you've had your wind up, and time is up. Judging by some of your other comments on other threads, I think you are definitely veering into troll territory.

Sounds like she is a very steady driver. Also sounds like your mind is made up.

I'm not sure where you are going with this one, is this your musing debate of whether you want to buy? If you are going to buy a new car anyway, then I don't think there is a dispute. Enviornmentally and ecomonically, there is argument against any new car vs the current Mini you gave as an...
