    Western concerns about Chinese “snooping “ high tech companies

    Got it in one. Also have you noticed how when you press the start button they distract you by have a car plan slow being coloured in, I think that’s when they are actually do retina checks. God know what the heated seat elements can do!

    Western concerns about Chinese “snooping “ high tech companies

    I wonder if we, as owners of Chinese built cars should be suspicious in the way our governments have when thinking about Chinese high Tec companies. Do you think our faulty infotainment systems are trying to tell us something, perhaps they are so overused in sending data back to China that it is...

    In the Mg car factory three workers Mr Wong, Mr Wing and another Mr Wong, are busy on the assembly line for the MG5, they are getting bored and so they try to amuse themselves by guessing what colour car would be coming next. They count to three and then all together shout out the colour they...

    Any MG jokes out there

    Chinese proverb says if you encounter pests in your factory just keep it secret and you will be ok. When Siac MG car factory had a rat infestation the director invited the media in to tell them and publicly apologised. That all seemed very odd given the Chinese proverb, until I learned that the...

    MG5 Long Range - real range ?

    I had a look at it and my Mg5 SR does exactly the same 2.9 and 150 to 170 miles on full charge driven sensibly. Great post with a lot of useful info to back it up.

    15 minutes to kill

    Thanks Ozzie1989, this is exactly what I was hoping to find out. Probably of no interest to most but I do like delving and understanding the impact of each item on the car. It won’t change my driving habits but I will know where my KWhrs are going. Much appreciated.

    15 minutes to kill

    I was waiting at the train station to pick my wife up when she text to say the train was delayed by 15 minutes. I have been waiting for a chance whilst stationary to fiddle with the power used by individual elements of the car and noticed the following. I have the MG5 SR 2021 model. I had 83%...

    MG5 Standard Range ?

    Since my KERs update was done you can see I have covered 1223 miles my average is 2.9 per KW hr. also you can see my average speed (16 mph), which is mainly school runs in heavy traffic or town driving. Just for my own interest I took the next photo having changed KERs 3 to 1 and the GOM doesn’t...

    A member of the MG 5 forum dies and goes to heaven. First thing he notices are loads of clocks. There is one clock here for each person on earth says the Reaper, every time someone tells a lie, their clock moves forward one minute. For instance, this clock belongs to Donald Trump, if you watch...

    The owners of the MG car factory in China have broken all world records for sales and aftercare excellence and as a reward they organise to take the entire workforce on day trip to Disney land Paris. The day takes place and they return to work. The owners notice a clear downturn in productivity...

    MG5 Long Range - real range ?

    Yes I agree we sacrifice some flexibility but 5 minutes at the petrol pump in my old Jaguar at current rates would cost over £110. I think we claw back some of that flexibility if we live near a rapid charger as within 30 minutes you can be on your way having spent a max of £25. I Take your...

    MG5 Long Range - real range ?

    Given there is such difference in range between winter and summer should the car be marketed with both estimates rather than just the highest? My MG5 SR only does 150 miles on full charge in the winter that 65 miles shorter than manufacturers claim. I am not grumbling as I think my car is...
