    Trophy AC charging limit choice

    What value should I be setting the AC charging drop-down to in the charge setting screen for the MG4 LG Trophy? Should it be “AC current” or 6A/8A? (16A would presumably blow the fuse unless it is somehow limited by the input granny charger.) The reason I ask is because I realised that the...

    Thinking of trading a Trophy for an Xpower

    ....as the title says.....Ive been mullling it over for a while. my car has 10k miles and i think im going to have to find 10k to change. Is it worth it for the speed? Will it handle as well as the Trophy? I'm unsure. Financially its a big hit but its supposed to be a much nicer car to drive and...

    MG4 X Power Tyre Upgrade

    MG4 Tire Change Roll Call (see this post) Well sadly it seems that the Aussie/NZ fix is making zero difference to the vibrations. Can anyone who has changed tyres on their X Power please tell us if it has made any difference and what you had fitted. I'm sure there is someone on here that has...

Next, when I arrived at my destination I locked the car and the radio kept playing when I locked and...

    EV plonker hogging ICE stations

    Us EV drivers complain a lot (rightly) about ICEs parking on an EV charger bay - today I saw the other side of the coin when an EV driver nonchalantly parked his car (an MG5) at a petrol pump before going to grab a coffee at Greggs. Plenty of off-pump parking bays available. What an idiot! I...

    Putting a figure on wind resistance

    After a couple of months of mostly around-town driving with some 100km/h stretches (averaging 13 kWh/100km) I did my first real motorway drive today with a 184 km round trip in my Excite 51 (SE SR). I still got pretty pleasing efficiency in Eco mode with one-pedal and ACC, with aircon on about...

    Bowfer again!

    Sorry I've not been around for a few days. Back soon, promise. I just thought older hands might want to hear this one. A day or two ago I was having a bit of a stupid argument with someone who seemed to be saying you had to pay £60,000 for an EV. In the middle of it I posted a photo of my car...
