    Motorway Driving

    I get around 275 miles with my Long Range MG4Trophy, setting my car in Eco mode, but setting the speed at 55mph on the motorway. Traveling around 230mile to my destination, it takes me about an extra 20-25min rather than traveling at 70mph. I find it rather relaxing and feels much safer. If your...

    MG4 Trophy Passenger Door Stopped working

    My MG4 Trophy passenger door handle stopped working, i.e you couldn’t open it when locked with the key in your pocket by pulling on the door handle. My dealer took 1 week to order a new one and and correctly paint match it, before refitting. All working fine now. Great service.

    Driving to Cornwall

    I drive to Plymouth from Shropshire in MG4 Trophy, I would highly recommend stopping off at Exeter services which has over 20 charges. Which I think is around 170 miles for you.

    Struggling to connect Wallbox Pulsar MAX to Intelligent Octopus Go.

    I too had the same issue for a month. I eventually updated my Wallbox and the requested another email from Octopus to connect, this time the password was different and it all worked. However, I have solar & batteries and tend to charge my car through these, Octopus have told me if I don’t...

    DAB/FM radio not working 2023 MG4 Extended range

    I had the same issue in Devon this week, but no issues home in the West Midlands? Maybe the local signal has issues in Devon?

    MG4 Trophy Coasting

    Yes, its a real shame. I had the ID3 before my MG4 and it was so efficient and was one pedal too. The one disappointment I have with my MG4. Mind you software updates can changed all this.

    Would you buy an MG 4 again?

    Thats a real shame, I had one of the first MG4’s back in October and I have had no issues whats so ever. I did with my ID3 and didn’t get anywhere complianing even after writing to the motor ombudsman. I wish you luck.

    MG4 software recall upgrade not working

    My MG4 Trophy was with the dealer technicians for 4 weeks to upgrad the software. They had so many issue’s and couldn’t release the car because after the upgrade it was unsafe to drive. They did lend me a MG5 so not too bad. Car all sorted now and no issues at all. I did have a call yesterday...

    MG4 experience

    Thats a real shame. I agree its not perfect, but its a great fun car to drive I love it. I have gotten up to 275 miles in my MG Trophy and that was a lot of motorway. On the motorway I set the car in Eco mode in auto @65mph. If I do the normal 70 plus drive I get around 235 miles. As you can see...

    New MG4 Software Update Nightmare March 2023

    As I stated when I started this thread, its been a nightmare. Now I have the latest updated software, annoyingly it defaults to Lane Assist which isn’t good in urban areas A & B roads, so I have to disable this everytime. Its a real shame you can’t set up a preference and set your car as you...

    New MG4 Software Update Nightmare March 2023

    Well finally I have my MG4 back after almost 4 weeks in the garage, trying to simply update the latest software. They said it damaged the safety module, whatever that is. I read MG use third parties for the software and some software is not working. I was given a MG5 as a loan car, so not too...

    MG4 Trophy Coasting

    I too owned a ID.3 and the coasting was brilliant. My MG4 Trophy can’t coast like the ID.3, something I really miss. Even on regen 1, its nothing like the ID.3, a real shame.

    2022 Home Charge Costing

    As I have solar & batteries, I rarely use the grid, but I would say it would work out cheaper, interesting thought though.

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    2 weeks ago I had my MG4 Trophy recalled for a software update. This should have been in for one day. Day 2 they contacted me saying there was a problem and they needed advice from MG as they had no idea. 2 weeks on its still not sorted. The latest software update caused errors /issues with the...
