    Hi, first post on the forum and hoping someone can help? Picking up our new (and first ev) mg5 in a week's time.

    Can you dim the dash lights on an MG5 particularly the speedo brightness?

    Just asking as someone posted on the Facebook fans & owners page and no one has answered (yet posted 7/8hrs ago?). He said the info screen dims, but the he finds the speedo too bright at nighttime?

    so extacly if the mg5 long range can have a tow bar or just install a towbar bike carrier,

    I was told that the mg5 is not allowed to install a tow bar. I think that towing big stuff is not possible. However, is it ok to just install a bike carrier towbar?

    ScotGov 0% EV Loan qualifies you for Affinity

    Hi, Wasn't sure whether to start this as a new thread or tack it on the end of the Affinity one, but as it's only available for viewers in Scotland I thought a new one would be best. I've just learnt that if you take up the Scottish Government's 0% EV loan, it qualifies you for the Affinity...

    Charging rate (plus general version musings)

    Hi, After testing a few EVs, I've decided that the MG5 is the one for me. Now I just need to figure out which model/battery I want. Having been 100% absolutely sure in my heart I wanted the Exclusive Long Range, my head has now taken control and is challenging this idea. I don't think I need...

    Changing Mileage for PCP

    I've got a MG5 coming in October and have signed the PCP agreement for 8k miles a year. However I have a feeling that this might be a little tight once my wife starts using the car for work. About 300 mile a year margin of error. Am I in a position to change the PCP agreement before delivery...

    North Wales and back

    Went to North Wales (via shrewsbury) for a long weekend, ~500 miles. In general a much better experience than the trip to Devon due to more chargers being available. Friday night was perfect. Chargers in Hereford whilst looking around the shops and getting some lunch, then charged in Shrewsbury...

    What charging cable(s) comes with the MG5?

    Hi all, I've just got my MG5, loving it so far and finding I can easily get 4+ mile per kwh driving around the Cornish country roads (Cornwall is pretty bad for efficiency in general, lots of little hills, always knocked my MPG down compared to the rest of the south of England) Quick...
