    MG4 X-Power waiting area

    Just adding a comment, that's all. I think the ER is a bit under-rated. Possibly not many people actually need that range when they really sit down and do the sums.

    MG4 X-Power waiting area

    Horses for courses, and all that. When I get into arguments with EV haters it always seems to be the ER I bring up, because it's range that seems to obsess them. Telling them that there's an EV that pretty much starts out blue and ends up red doesn't impress them quite so much.

    MG4 XPower Range and efficiency

    I sometimes talk about the X-Power, you know! Don't they have a flavour of Taycan that does sub 3 seconds?

    I am SO stealing that.

    Well this sucks (XPower crash tested) 🙄

    That's what's important. I remember my business partner coming back into the lab after having gone home for lunch, somewhat shaken. As he drove past the entrance to the church car park in the village, where a mother and toddler group had been meeting, one of the mothers, complete with toddler...

    MG4 X Power Roll Call.

    Consider it a subtlety.

    Well this sucks (XPower crash tested) 🙄

    Absolutely gutted for you, you must be so upset. But at least nobody was hurt and in the end it's only a car. I hope it's repairable - on the other hand if they really do hand out new cars if yours is written off in its first year, I hope for the best outcome for you.

    I see what you mean about the lights. Can't you move them? (I'm not sure I want my filthy floor mats illuminated, mind you.)

    MG4 X Power Roll Call.

    I think these LED lights look like something out of a bad Hallowe'en movie, but maybe in off-white or something like that? You actually broke a rule. Now let's say no more about it.

    MG4 X Power Roll Call.

    That's how I took it. Just a friendly note, no penalties. X-Power owners, be careful about these mats. They're made for the SE. The floor ones also fit the Trophy spec as far as I know, but the boot liner definitely will not.

    X Power not liked by James and Kate

    Sometimes. But I don't want the Trophy trim, I like the SE trim, and I like the LFP battery too. I don't see them bringing out an SE X-Power with an LFP battery, somehow!

    MG4 X Power Roll Call.

    You're all crazy. That badge is the first thing that attracted me to the car. The first thing I saw before my eyes took in all the other tasty details.

    Anyone! Siteguru, if past experience is anything to go by!

    X Power not liked by James and Kate

    I came from an XR2 and then two GTis - a Peugeot and then a Golf. I was gobsmacked by how close the SE SR came to the performance of these cars. If the X-Power had been available at the time I'm not saying I wouldn't have been tempted, but even the basic models are capable of quite impressive...

    The subscription thing is interesting and I think in a good way. Someone like me, who might charge at a supercharger once in a blue moon, can't really justify taking one. But I can still charge at the supercharger if I want to, just at the dearer price. But people like Bricktop who can't charge...

    Just talk to @Bricktop1967, why don't you? :LOL:

    Mmm, my undertray has an issue but I've gone through some fair old flood water and got away with it. That is not guaranteed to last though.

    Xpower first impressions

    Yeah, it's all going to look a bit stupid when half the country is driving an EV and the other half wishes it was. But he'll have made his money by then. I don't know why it's so lucrative. I just glaze over during the ads, and it would never occur to me to buy anything because I saw a YouTube...
