G'day @Elec Car Aust !
That's a pain for Aussie owners, I wonder why they won't approve one even for bike carriers ?
I've seen some of your videos before I think when I first started looking at the ZS EV. I'll check out your channel and the link above, thanks.
Hi @Kevster.
Didn't think to check Halfords, but not my favourite shop after previous cycle purchases tbh...How much are they charging out of interest..?
Fair comment but I doubt Witter would use fitters that are not quality checked.
Good luck.
Hi @Kevster .
Likewise, I was waiting for stock then saw the listing pop up on eBay. I think the eBay seller I posted a link for above have more stock from looking at their shop. They say 1 left in stock but it said the same for me, just scare tactics to make you push the button..😏
No I'm based...
Hi @LazzzzYx .
Parts were about £375 from eBay and mobile fitter charged £190 so about £565 all in.
Just need to make sure we get some use out of it now...🚴
I think it might be as it lists ZS from 2017 onwards for the actual towbar. The electric kit is specific to EV model I think.

I'm sorry but I didn't see the fitter remove the bumper, just took a photo of it all removed after he'd fitted the towbar. It looks to me from those side plastic trims that it might be snap fit but I'm not sure. Maybe somebody that's removed one can confirm ?
Hi All.
After a long time keeping an eye out for stock of a suitable towbar for our 71 plate ZS EV mk1, we've finally bitten the bullet on a Witter removable towbar, sourced from Ebay, with a vehicle specific wiring kit and installed by a local mobile fitter who also fits towbars for Witter...
Welcome to the forum @rjb70stoke !
You've made a good choice and I'd go as far as saying the MG ZS EV is the best car we've ever had in over 40 years of driving (which also includes an unreliable, although very nippy, MG Metro that I'd class as one of our worst..!)
I'd agree with you about the...
I'm gobsmacked at the differences between dealers here. I got a quote for 3yr plan for only 5k miles total £457.72 so £13.46 per month. How's a garage in East London so much cheaper than Chester ?

Same here..! I've left mine in the car both days in work this week. My Seat Leon used to come up with a message on screen "Remember to take your phone.." so that must be something easy to implement please MG..?
Thanks very much @SCB86 (and @Davemac278 for the review).
I ordered one myself (although you get 2 in the box, so bonus..) and it plugs in and allows my phone to sit perfectly flat in the cubby in front of the switches, spot on !
Hi @JodyS21.
Oh ok. I thought it meant the car did not get the 'bad' update that reduced battery range but should have had the latest maybe..?
I'm not going to get too hung up about it unless my range after a full charge looks too low. After the 100% granny charge it showed I had over 150...
Hi @Jeps.
I think I noticed the badge was steady glowing early in morning, then when I finally unplugged it the badge was no longer on and granny charge box had 2 blinking LEDs. Centre display was 'connected but not charging'. I thought this meant it had finished charge and equalisation..?
Likewise nice to have seen you at least, if not met you properly..!
I've never been so embarrassed trying to buy something with money that I knew was in my account. The woman from HSBC could tell I was majorly p**sed off and offered £50 compensation for the delay they caused.
You're right in...
Hi @MrG .
I’m sorry to hear you had such a difficult journey home on Saturday.
I’m pretty sure you got off the same Metro train as me and walked to Vic Youngs just behind me as I collected my ZS EV that morning too..!
It was the red one that my sales guy Jack had to move to let you get your...
