    Nasty Moment at a Pod Point

    There's a set of 4 subsidised Pod Points (14p /kwh) at our local shopping centre, so I thought I'd get a cheap charge while I was at Sainsbury this morning. All went well until I tried to end the charge, and I found I couldn't get the plug out of the car. I had unlocked the car, walked round...

    Charging fully.

    Hi all, our MG5 LR only charges to 95% on all chargers, is this normal? As soon as it gets 95% it stops charging and releases the plug.

    One Year Ago.....

    Exactly 12 months ago today I test drove an MG5 and signed an order form there and then. I had full choice of colour and specification (Red Exclusive in my case) and the car was collected only 3 weeks later. How things have changed.......

    Old topic revisited

    Just did a balance charge after running down the % after getting the car back from the garage. Reset the trip computers and it gave 214miles in the GOM with everything switched off in Eco but dropped to 193miles with the air con on but no heat. 10% loss in range just for the air con. In the real...

    Excite v Exclusive

    So after month of deliberation I have now decided to go for the Excite over the exclusive. The £2k difference made a massive difference to my budget. Been quoted under £25k. Is that a good price for the Excite? Thanks in advance.

    Found a new range killer ?

    The M62. Had a weekend away and had to traverse that well known nightmare called the M62 with 3 adults and luggage. Journey out 84 miles thanks to google diverting us from the M6 and taking us the shorter but slower route to our destination near Crewe ended up with 4.0m/kWh. Started at 100%...

    Hi all, I've stopped at two different chargers this week, ionity at Leeds and applegreen at hartshead Moor. Both charged ok, but when they started, they ramped up from zero to 50kw within 30s or so then stayed there. At ionity, the battery was around 35% and at hartshead it was at 43%. Why...

    1065 miles in 6 days

    Done 1065 miles in 6 days travelling between Cumbernauld and Edinburgh twice a day. Averaged 4miles per kw, driving through Edinburgh was a challenge. Reckon I saved £225 in petrol since my leckie was free. Car went well though the seat I found uncomfortable.

    Speed v. Range - analysis using ABRP

    There is frequently discussion here on ekeing out range at the expense of speed. Over a long mainly motorway journey I wondered how much difference it would make. As it's impossible to do the same journey twice in identical conditions, I plotted a route from my home town to Edinburgh using...
