    Advice on new car choice - MG ZS EV... Or not?

    Its possible tarrifs (or higher than existing if there are any existing) may be added in the EU and UK in the future. Wouldn't be 100% though.

    Charge level setting on a standard range ZSEV

    Only available on the long range. However you could set a the time of a charge (via car or home charge point) so it only reaches 80%. Mine charges at 6.2 kW so I could compute how much time it needs to be charging to get to 80%. However on a standard range due to its battery chemistry its fine...

    How many mile per kWh can you get?

    What's the highest anyone has ever got ie from unusual / freak situations. Mine was 18 miles per kWh. The car had been out in the sun all day (so HV battery probably at goldilocks operating temperature) and was going down hill at about 10 mph (due to traffic) in the IOW on a really hot day...

    Part of the enjoyment for me is in any set of conditions getting the maximum mile's per kWh. Its a little competition I set myself. It annoys me when the wife's using it and drags it down!

    Charging Speeds

    Any incidence of it triggering the alarm. I stooped using the NEXAS NexLink Bluetooth 5.0 OBDII Scanner I bought as it kept doing this. I don't know if was the scanner that caused it or some setting on the car that did it. It would not make the alarm go off when switched on, but about 20 minutes...

    Mirror doesn't fold

    Does anyone know if there is a way to not have the mirrors fold in when you turn the car off and lock it. I'd prefer this in snowy conditions. Though I do use wing mirror covers / "mittens".

    Long term storage effects on battery

    I saw a car with a small solar panel on the dashboard the other day. Presumably this is to keep the 12V battery charged if a car has been left. How does the panel get connected to the 12V battery to keep it charged. Do you have to do some special wiring inside the car or is there somewhere...

    In Praise of the ZS

    I just choose cottages I can charge at, even if that's via a granny charger. I just ask if its possible before I book, always stating I will pay for the electricity. If its not possible either because they don't want to, don't have a dedicated chargepoint or a properly wired outside 3 pin plug...

    Complete newbie seeking advice

    I heat or cool on normal setting until the temp is comfortable then switch to Eco and turn down heating or switch off a/c. That way I travel in the comfort I want but with the highest efficiency I can get for that comfort. I also select clothing that assists in being the right level of comfort...
