    UK Deliveries

    I didn't see a thread to track people's experience of MG5 deliveries in the UK. So far, it's been quite terrible in comparison to other EVs we've ordered. All brands have faced similar issues but at least other brands could offer more nuanced status updates. We aren't even getting an estimated...

    Really pleased - with our MG5 LR M/kW

    2 weeks into our first eV and really pleased with the miles/kW and range accuracy. Average for 550miles of mainly dual carriageway/ motorway 55/65 mph 4.3miles / KW. The % and miles remaining seem pretty accurate too. Yes it is becoming warmer weather and winter energy reduction to be expected...

    Hi, Just had a £100 demand letter from Parkingeye. This was my first long journey in the MG5 the return leg from Gloucester to Cornwall.

    Parking Brake

    Apologies if this had already been covered but … When I leave my car unused for a week or two I always try to park it safely in the garage with the handbrake off to reduce the risk of it seizing on. Try as I might I can’t find a way of doing this with the MG5. Anybody any know if this is possible?

    MG5 sat Nov - require arrow in driving direction

    We can't seem to find if/ how the onboard sat Nov can be altered so that the arrow icon is pointing in the card driving direction not north as it is. We do use Google map, BUT it seems the car is quite regularly not happy with the USB connection and gives an error message. Have bought 3 new...

    Self propelled MG5LR

    Our now 2 week old car and 550 miles pulls away both forward and reverse a little with no foot on the throttle. Is this intended as manufactured. And if correct, does this mean that say queing at traffic lights on a hill or similar for more than 30 seconds, should the car be put in park mode...

    Hi all /A PodPoint issue

    Hi, nice to be part of this forum. We have quite a few queries regarding our MG5 LR use and issues. One first one is as I have seen similar recently, but with a "twist".

    I'm impressed by the range of my MG5 SR

    I've had my MG5 SR since February. I accept that I've not tried driving it in dreadful weather in the winter across the Pennines, but generally I've been very pleased by the range it gives me. On shortish journeys, it's generally about two miles a percent - to the extent that I check the...

    Archived MG5 Car Boot Mat

    Brand new, still in unopened manufacturer packaging, the "basic" one of these. I bought this before I got the car and before it was confirmed that I was eligible for the Affinity scheme (where the boot mat is included) so this is now surplus to requirements! (I know, "Dumb"!!) Current cost...

    Space saver for MG5 EV Std Range

    Has anybody got a recommendation for a space saver tyre for a Feb 21 MG5EV. I had a puncture last night and frankly the inflator and gunk was useless. I don't want to be caught out again. Advice gratefully received. Thanks all, in advance.
