Imagine if the owner tracked movement of the car away from the tyre shop and then reported it as TWOC. Then the car was picked up on police car equipped with ANPR and it got TPAC’d !. Explain THAT to the customer if you can tyre shop !. Joy riding as it’s very best, most definitely.

Do they take every car on road test that they perform a tyre change on ?. I very much doubt it !. I would question their actions if it was my car TBH.

Thank for sharing your experience of the MG4 excite, which James thought was his preferred option. I hope you get the opportunity to test a X Power and you can report back on your personal experiences. I never suggested it did Tom TBH. Let’s not loss site of the fact that these are only...

Really - I mean come on !. No I am not related to James in any way shape or form. I just like to do some detailed back ground research first, before passing judgement on a single review myself. Maybe 🤔 a good suggestion 👍. James ( like myself ) is resident of the U.K. and of course, we are not...

That’s an easy one, they have a Tesla model 3 which in fairness, he has been critical of some aspects of the build quality. So definitely not a Tesla boy. This workhorse is MG5 which is fully kitted out as a mobile workshop for EV’s. He has done a couple of reviews on the MG5 and given detailed...

Or use the original number plate as a drill template and then transfer the holes into the new number plate ?. Two number plates attached together may look a bit suspicious 🤨.

There has been a lot of chat on car insurance price increases on another thread. It’s very common practice too switch providers after 1 or 2 years now. Introductory offers are rarely repeated. https://www.mgevs.com/threads/the-great-big-insurance-rip-off.13559/page-3#post-251295

All of the previous MG models are fitted with wheel retaining bolts & not nuts ?. And the locking wheel bolts ( M14X1.5 ) appear to be the same etc. On Ebay they offer them in bright silver or in a black finish and are £20.00 a set. Ask the dealer to confirm that the wheel bolts are the same as...

Thanks for that 👍. I am just wondering 💭 if they would take a carbon wrap ?. Would look 👀 nice against the Camden Grey if you wanted to play down the bright orange, for that full on sleeper look 🤣.

Can you please confirm if plastic or metal please @JonnyG

Good colour choice !. A proper “Sleeper” when the calliper covers receive a colour change from that bright orange. If the car was subject to a lease, then then I would just remove the plastic covers and refit them when the car goes back.

Currently X power is only available in the Matt green colour I believe ?.

Thanks Miles very impressive performance TBH. It’s not really the type of car you would buy to have some serious fun with, then start complaining that the EV efficiency is not the best in class ?. Performance comes at a price either with a fossil or an EV. If you bought any high performance ICE...

Where did the second run on the video go Miles ?. I can’t find it ?????.

Had then on my Golf GTE and absolutely hated them !. I found the tyre compound very hard, which was okay for wear but the traction from the front wheels from a standing start was rubbish and the road noise for a part electric car was terrible !. I rotated them every 5,000 miles in order to...

Hi Miles - When I watched your video for the first time, it included two drag matches with the BMW M2. The first pull was both cars on the start line. The Green machine left it for dead. Then on the second pull, you gave the BM a decent head start and the X power still beat it to the line !. But...

I like the idea 💡 that the car does not shout too loudly about its higher performance in the standard colour TBH. Its a bit of a sleeper !. It’s less of a target 🎯 for the pond life car jackers then. None of the usual four tail pipes that are common place on fossil performance cars these days 🤣.

Yeah - You will always get your “Badge Snobs” I guess 🤣. After owning a number of VAG group cars from new in the past, aI have to say they can build a good car though !.

The white interior is absolutely stunning in the Tesla. My neighbour has a model 3 with the white interior and its really nice. The car is now two years old and he said he would not have again because it’s simply not practical. Wearing blue jeans 👖 is a complete NO NO because of the colour...

My guess would be that the interior will be fairly dark as in most sporty models, following the example of other manufacturers. Alcantara is a brilliant choice for the centre sections of the seats. It breaths well and feels great in the summer and the winter. Best combo in my mind, is vegan...
