    Is it just me?

    Does anyone else take everything out of the car before taking it in for a service?

    Another charging lesson learned.

    I connected my MG4 to the Zappi charger last night but had trouble getting the Zappi app to talk to the charger. I don't do a lot of mileage so it had been nearly 2 weeks since the last charge.

    Wall charger installation date

    After applying to have an EV wall charger fitted I've finally got an instillation date just over two months after accepting the quote.
