    Will Halfords fit a dash cam?

    I've done a few searches and read a few posts regarding dash cam fitting for the MG5 and noticed there's conflicting reports on Halfords ability to fit a dash cam to an EV. I'm booked in this Sunday for a fitting so time will tell, but wondered if anyone else has been successful with Halfords...

    Battery charge problem

    Got my MG5 LR last Monday and I have charged it three times but it has never got up to 250 miles range although it is registering 100% charged. Has anyone else had this problem? Or is it a problem cell on the battery pack?

    Remote boot unlock range

    Hi, I don't usually use the key fob to open the boot on my LR Excite, but when I do... I usually give up as the range it works from is pretty small. Is this the same for everyone, or is my car being awkward? The range for the door unlock is more than adequate! Thanks, Iain

    Neutral and Drive

    hi everyone, I read on the forum that it is possible to "pop" MG into neutral while driving, to preserve the battery (I'm talking extreme situation here, running out of power etc) now, is it possible to pop it back "into gear" while in motion? The whole thing leads me to another question...

    Spotted Yorkshire

    Drove to Bridlington on Sunday, spotted 2 team red MG5s one going too and one coming from. Also stopped at a Tescos in Market Weighton and took a cheeky free charge, and look who was my company. Go team bland!??

    Rear windscreen wiper

    Is it normal that when in reverse, the rear windscreen wiper doesn't function? Today when leaving work I needed to clear the rear windscreen, but to do so I need to go back into neutral. Not the first time I've noticed, but seems like a flaw in the system. Is this the same with everyone else?

    Paint chips

    Finally decided it was time to clean the car having been away for Christmas, 800 miles of motorway grime! I was rather upset to discover several marks in the paint (Piccadilly blue) that are through to the white (?) under layer on the bonnet. In all the cars I have owned I don't recall so many...
