    MG4, not a good car.

    I use the speed limit mode where there is a 20 mph or 30 mph speed limit, since it can be difficult to stick to these limits when you don't have a manual gearbox to help (i.e leave it in 2nd in a 20 mph area). However the camera does pick up signs on side roads and can suddenly brake as a...

    USB Music

    I'm afraid the best solution is to use Carplay or Android Auto with a music player of your choice.

    Goodbye MG4 Trophy!

    @Deakin I can certainly sympathise with your frustration, although we haven't had the problems you have. In defence of the MG, we are putting up with the software 'features'. It's a bit of a pain having a pre-flight checklist but we're not stopping and starting the car regularly so it's not too...

    You CAN road trip an SE SR

    Rolfe, you mention GeniePoint chargers in Halifax. In my experience and Trust Pilot reviews, they are unreliable. EDIT - I've just checked the recent Trust Pilot reviews - they are all one star! Looking at the BPPulse reviews, they are trying to get their act together.

    12 volt battery

    My old Jazz had a battery similar the MG4's and the interior lights drained it overnight.

    12 volt battery

    I'm not sure the interior lights will turn off, if turned on manually. They will drain a battery overnight.

    Boot size question

    Can you provide the dimensions of the wheelchair? I presume it folds. Do the handles fold down and the foot rests come off? Do you take the wheels off? Could it fit behind the passenger seat?

    Boot size question

    The parcel shelf is designed to be easily removed. With it removed, the wheelchair might fit in vertically. I can investigate further if required.

    “Fast Charging” - at 3.6kW or less

    3 phase cable is heavier but not too difficult to handle. I think that a 'destination' charger delivers up to 50kW AC but limited by the car usually to 7 or 11kW.. It may not have a tethered cable and is intended for charging when you have reached your destination and have the time to charge...

    “Fast Charging” - at 3.6kW or less

    I'm about to e-mail the National Trust as follows: I am a member of the National Trust with an electric vehicle. I am aware that there is a page on the web that lists properties with EV chargers (Find electric vehicle charging points). However: This page does not seem to be available on the...

    “Fast Charging” - at 3.6kW or less

    Thanks for this information. I'm about to write to the National Trust about the information on electric chargers and will request they provide details of payment, including minimum charge. You may have a single phase cable - try this thread Slow vs "Fast" charging confusion

    First long run in my Trophy LR

    Thanks for details of your trip. I've used Tothill services without any problems using an Electroverse card.

    MG4 LR 2024 issues.

    I wish you luck: From the Euro-NCAP ratings, 'To be eligible for scoring points in ELK [Emergency Lane Keeping], the ELK part of the LSS system needs to be default ON at the start of every journey and deactivation of the system should not be possible with a momentary single push on a button. '...

    Jump start

    Just to reinforce the above. The MG4 battery is probably intended to start a small car which requires about 150A. A 2L diesel requires 250 to 400A to start. Add in the possible problems of frying the MG4 electrics and it's not worth the risk.

    iSmart app.....Do I REALLY need it?

    I find it most useful when charging the car at public chargers. You know when it's reached the desired setting, if you are having a coffee nearby. But if you have never found it useful, unbind the car, delete the account and app.

    Type 2 cables redundant?

    You will need a type 2 cable for street chargers, if you have to use them.
