    MG5 Second Service

    My MG5 is coming up to its second service at just over 20k miles. Just had a quote from Glyn Hopkin for £380. This seems outrageous to me. Anyone had similar experiences?

    Brake fluid usage

    Is anyone else’s Mg using a lot of brake fluid? I have topped mine up 4 times in 25,000 miles, it’s been in the garage but they say it just needed topped up. I have never had this with any other car but this is my first EV, is this normal?

    I've never had such a bad car. MG5 EV

    Problems with all sorts of things, but the worst is the autonomy they advertise of 400km when the maximum is 200km. Acts as an emergency brake on the highway, cross control broken with 3000km of use.

    MG5 should be upgraded for what it really needs!!!!

    I am happy to see the new MG5 provides V2L and app support. However, I am not happy with the new MG5, because it lacks the following upgrades. 1. The car should be bigger. For example, the length comes to 4.7-4.8M. This is why I like Tesla Model Y... 2. Rear seat should be as flat as the back...

    Journey time counter

    I've had a quick search but cant find anything about this. My MG5LR records the journey time as 1/10ths of an hour, so 6 minutes in the car is 0.1hrs I find this really annoying, my previous cars (Alfa Romeos) recorded the travel time in minutes which makes much more sense. I've had the MG long...
