    Best Trip to date...

    Bit disappointed today. Drove from Birmingham to Winchester. Currently on way back near Oxford. Steady 65 mph on motorway and duel carriageways. Heater on for much of the way (cold day today) but not blasting. Used radio and Satnav all journey through Android Auto. Economy mode. 3.2 miles per...

    UPDATE (Are the MG5 headlights bright enough? Has anyone upgraded them?)

    My thoughts exactly. Really don't know what the issue is. Went down a dark lane last night and I could see just fine. It's not like I'm going night stage rallying or helping to land planes with them!

    Excited to be taking delivery of my new MG5

    To be honest, be careful with your right foot too! Don't know what you drive at the moment but I was shocked at not only how quick it is, but how smooth and consistent the power delivery is. Even in Eco mode. Enjoy. It's a cracking car.

    MG5 Roof rails decorative only

    Hopefully it doesn't mean they will just ignore the issue with the current model. Weren't they in the process of getting them approved? Perhaps this is something the podcast could discuss on Monday.

    Alloy Wheel opinions

    I got mine powder coated gloss black. Just makes the car look a bit more individual. I've put black mirror caps on since too.

    Mud flaps worth getting? Does it affect range?

    Cheers. But they are for the ZS. Do they fit the MG5 as well?

    Hi. I've had a look. Can't see any. Do you have a link?

    MG5 owners only. Post on here what you think of the car.

    I'll kick it off. Best car I've had. Great value for money. Comfortable, well equipped (for it's price point), quick. No complaints at all.

    My first 1000 EV miles of steep learning...

    Me too. An absolutely cracking car for the money.

    My first 1000 EV miles of steep learning...

    It seems to me, though I can't confess to having read every post on this forum, that the vast majority of negative comments about the car are coming from people who don't own them. Problems with charging? Had none. Problems I've read about seem to be less to do with the car than charger...

    Wallbox Home Charger

    Hi everyone, I've noticed many posts about home chargers. Lots of comments about Rolec and Zappi etc, but I thought I'd post about my Wallbox. I brought direct through the Wallbox website, but the process was actually managed by Bumblebee EV in Scotland, who really were excellent. I'm in...

    Can someone steal an MG5 while it's preheating? [Video]

    Yep. That's the difference. So when the car is on charge and heating, Ready mode doesn't move the dial! This is why I assumed the car was in 'On' mode. My concern, for what it's worth, is that someone may try to pre-heat a car, in Ready mode, without the charging element. I only charge mine once...

    Can someone steal an MG5 while it's preheating? [Video]

    Surely if the car was in Ready mode, the right hand dial would move. Just because he says it's in Ready mode doesn't mean it is. Watch the video closely. When he engaged reverse, apart from not detecting the key it says the HV battery is shut off. That doesn't mean it was turned on previously to...

    Can someone steal an MG5 while it's preheating? [Video]

    Similar to what I'm saying. My point isn't so much to do with the charge (I feel the charging element was not the main point of the video because you could theoretically want to heat your car without it being on charge) rather that, as far as I can see, the car in the video wasn't in Ready mode...
