    Rear black plastic bar.

    My plate has the name and number of the maker in it. It's just small.

    Rear black plastic bar.

    Thanks to all the advice on here I decided to get some slightly deeper plates for the back. I bought my wife some private plates for Christmas (who says romance is dead!) and decided to sort out the back plate situation. I ordered 140mm deep plates for the rear. Took off the black bar, cleaned...

    MG5 Facelift USB music and Android Auto simultaneously

    Well that was annoying. After trying loads of different USB sticks with different formatting in the right hand side USB port on my facelift MG5 Trophy and none of them working, I decided to actually read the manual. The manual reports that the right hand side is for USB power only. The left...

    MG5 and USB music

    I can't get any of my USB sticks to be recognised. I've got various from 16 to 128Gb and have tried them in FAT32 and exFAT and it just says USB identification failure or something like that. I'm using the right (drivers side) socket as the left one is for Android Auto. Any handy hints or tips?

    MG iSmart gives wrong car.

    Yes, ironically HVAC systems work fine with the Mg5 despite it f getting the wrong car but the app retorts it as always being unlocked and you can't use the app to lock it and unlock it. My Mg4 reports as the correct car, I can lock and unlock it OK, but I can't turn on the HVAC using the app...

    MG iSmart gives wrong car.

    Collected mine yesterday and I have the same problem. Just created a thread for this before I read this and will now delete my thread! Anyway, I guess we'll await an update. Good news, I think, is there have been a bunch of fixes for the app and the MG4 over the last few weeks so maybe it'll...

    V2L Cables

    I made one from an old type 2 to type 2 charging cable after seeing a few videos on youtube. Seems to work fine and I've been running a fan heater in my garage off it for a good few hours.

    MG5 Facelift Insurance

    I hadn't thought of MG insurance. I've just got cover with A - Plan who normally deal with modified cars. Seemed expensive (£600) but I've not been able to use my no claims bonus as I've had a company car for a number of years. They've used the excite (whichever was closest - can't remember)...

    MG5 Facelift Insurance

    Just called Direct Line up with no joy. I explained everything that's listed on here around insuring it as a different model and Silvia said that that's not something that can be done. Looks like I might have to delay my pickup. I might phone the garage up. There used to be a 7 days insurance...

    MG5 Facelift Insurance

    I'm struggling with this too. I pick my car up tomorrow. The dvla check now has the correct car listed (which took a while). What are the options? I'm a bit concerned. My mg4 suddenly appeared a few days before I picked it up. Andy
