    Back to diesel

    I agree absolutely. The only problem I have is whether I can get a decent price for the MG. I bought in October & I've a feeling used EV prices have plummeted.

    First long journey in my zs ev Trophy long range

    This time of the year I doubt it would do the entire journey on one charge. We've just done 2x200 mile trips, Exeter to near Manchester & return, starting with 100% charge (281 miles). Cruise control was set to 60 mph. On both occasions we stopped for lunch about 2/3 of the distance as charge...

    Shocking (cost of electricity)

    It might be worth considering solar panels &/or a battery system. In the UK you will be allowed 4 kWp solar which if linked to a battery can be saved for use charging the car or for general use. If you have the battery system alone, it can be used in conjunction with an overnight cheap rate...

    Can we eliminate the creep?

    Thanks. It sounds good. If both MGs have the same logic it should work. I've no ideas about the autohold issue on the 4. but I'm a dinosaur when it comes to software. I found with the Zs that you have to push the brake pedal quite a long way down before autohold engages.

    Can we eliminate the creep?

    I do. And I did. Auto hold engages if you press the brake pedal hard, but as the creep function is briefly working against the brake it make the car very jerky at around 2 mph. I have found nothing in the manual about disengaging the creep. If you have come across it, please tell me where in...

    Can we eliminate the creep?

    Creep happens in ICE vehicles due to the torque converter. Newer dual clutch autos don't creep. The other electric vehicles in the family (a Tesla & a Renault Kangoo van) don't creep. When they stop they stop until you touch the accelerator again. Creep is something actually programmed into the...

    Can we eliminate the creep?

    Thanks for your responses. I've tried most of these. The issue in Exeter is that there are huge changes of slope. My most frequent city journey takes me down one side of the valley through some of the country's slowest rush hour congestion and up the other side. I'd hoped an electric car would...

    Can we eliminate the creep?

    I find the way the MG Zs continues to creep forwards annoying in traffic jams. Is it possible to disable this so that the car just rolls to a stop?
