I can assure you that being stuck on the side of the road with a dead 12v battery is not 'cosmetic'. Nor is supplying cars with traction batteries that can catch fire and not being able to leave ones car out because the osr door handle fell off exposing the mechanism, is also not cosmetic. If...

Just to give a balanced view I decided to reply. I'm on my 2nd Ioniq (38kW), are your alloys pealing yet? Mine are at 17,000mls, my Hyundai dealer took pictures to send to Hyundai 2 mths ago, they haven't got back to me yet. Have any of your outer door handles fallen off yet? My o/s/r did...

If your car passed its MOT your brakes are working correctly, they are obviously a major part of an MOT. If they required immediate action you would not have passed the MOT. Having been an MOT tester/Mechanic I can tell you one of the most profitable jobs a garage can do is brakes! As EVs use...

James has a frunk in his MG5, hes done 50000mls and this year been pretty hot (40c) and he hasn't had any problems, see 0:45 in this video 'How long do EV batteries last'. I had a frunk in my MG ZS EV and had no problems. I may fit one permanently in my MG5, I have made one to hang under the...

No problems before with the 12v and we've had it from brand new. The only other problem we have had was when the outside osr door fell off! Must be fairly common as they didn't even want to look at it they just ordered a new one. The alloys laquer is peeling off, its going in for its 3rd service...

Here's short tale about this kind of problem. I own a MG5 and a Hyundai Ioniq 38 on a 69 plate 15k mls The wife normally drives it but I wanted to move it on the drive to put the MG on the house charger. I went to move the Ioniq and it didn't respond I thought I had rushed the start up and so I...

I had an MG ZS ev now own a MG5lr and also own a 38 Kwh Ioniq, it has a built in auto demist function (ADS) to keep windows clear. People on the Ioniq forum are complaining about it! They don't like the cold air the system pushes into the cabin to clear the misting up problem. There is also a...

A friend of mine picked up a Cupra Born this week and said he would be charging at public chargers until he got his wall box fitted. I said you could always use the granny to help out a bit. He said he hadn't got one as it would have cost over £200 extra! So it seems not all EVs come with the...

I still very happy with your old wheels, Miles. My MG5 handles better, there is slightly more road noise (but not bad) and it has not affected the mls/kw noticeably. Thanks for your help getting them sorted.

I am on my 2nd Ioniq se, its a 38kW, I have also owned a gen 1 ZS ev exclusive until I part exed for an MG5lr a couple of weeks ago, this was a financial decision, plus the extra range is great as we have solar panels so I can store more free electrons in the larger battery, also the deals just...

VAG build quality? Their DIE sel engines aren't that good are they. VW are back in court again for other versions of a cheat devices on 2 of their DIE sel engines. They were so sorry but Corporations don't care, unless they get caught.

I don't care what she says, looks are a personal thing and it looks good to me. 'It takes10 min to defrost?' what is she on about? More like 3min perhaps she thinks you have to wait for the engine to warm up, lol. She also said 'its fast enough for keeping up with traffic?' Begrudging praise and...
