Spotted this MG5 being used as an emergency vehicle/ambulance on the Flickr site. Personally not seen one myself but wonder if the use of EVs in public service is becoming more widespread?

I know that Kers 3 is the recommended setting for stop/start motoring like in towns and Kers 1 for continuous periods of non-braking type driving like on a motorway but……..what difference does it make? Is there a difference in the mpkWh achieved or in the feel of the car when zooming on the...

Can anyone tell me if this size will fit my MG5LR? Rover 75 / MG ZT 16” Viking Alloy Wheel And 215/55 r16 Dunlop Tyre 7mm Approx The tyre size seems OK but is the “lug distance” compatible? (I think that is the critical factor). Thanks!

The forward collision warning, although very useful, can be a bit mystifying at times. This morning, driving on an open road, no traffic within sight, no bends for about 600yds, no obstructions anywhere and just a grassed verge, this warning sign appeared to wake up and let itself be known! I...

I try to limit my speed and never venture beyond 75/80mph. Last night, quite late and driving on the M18 away from Sheffield, the road was not very busy at all and I was lost in my own thoughts. Before I realised, I was doing 90mph! My MG5 had reached this speed seemingly effortly and the engine...

I really want to get a full size wheel (tyre and rim) for my MG5 but been looking for ages. I’ll still look but at the moment feel that I should just get a cheap space saver one off eBay or Shpock. I know the stud spacing is 5x112 and that the Golf mk5 spare fits the MG. Are there any other...

It is relatively easy to understand the Kers system of Regenerative Braking but what actually happens in the Mode system? I use the Economy Mode most of the time but when the car is running in this mode, what is happening in the ‘innards’ of the car? What is the difference in the internal...

Several times recently my radio, when I’ve switched on, is playing FM channels and not the World Service on the DAB frequencies.I always leave it on World Sevice on DAB and never on an FM station, rarely listening to FM at all. Is there anyone who has also suffered this strange occurrence?

I have got very used to using front parking sensors on my cars, having had them on my two previous cars so it was a bit of a bind to get the MG5 and discover that it only had a rear camera. It is almost like stepping back into the past! The dealers that I bought from recommend an electrical...

With the boot floor in the Exclusive raised to its higher position, there appears to be a lot more space where normally you would fit a space saver wheel. My question is, I wonder, is there sufficient space to fit a complete normal wheel as a spare, not a space saver one? Maybe there is another...

I decided to check just how many miles per hour my Granny Charger would deliver. Experiment conducted over two days, yesterday and today. My MG5 Long range was charged from its existing 40% to 100%. Checked on the mileage delivered over two lengths of time, results as follow…. The rate...

I wonder if any others have been caught out by the £750 voucher offered by MG motors this summer? I was told by three separate dealers about the £750 MG voucher that would be applied if I was to test and buy an MG car, which I duly did in August. None of them mentioned the fact that the MG5LR...

Hi everyone! Paul here, a newbie to the world of EVs and now the proud owner of an MG5 Long Range. Collected it about a week ago after it was ordered in the middle of August and just getting used to how it drives and operates. After a little time, will start to add comments to other members...
