    Hi, I have been using this site for a few weeks now but suddenly today I have had loads of advertising banners popping up one after the other. How can I stop this and has this happened to other users?

    Picked up my new MG5

    Just picked up my new MG5 Excite yesterday. Very pleased with it so far. The spec is impressive for a base model. It has all the must have features on my checklist : Cruise control Satnav Parking sensors Reversing camera I'm not sure what the fuss is about the built-in Satnav. It seems pretty...

    Number plates.

    Question for any MG5 dealers here. My rear number plate issue IS still unresolved. I was informed by MG Maidstone today that, the government issues the physical number plates to the dealer, and the dealer can only fit what they have been issued with. Thanks.

    3 Phase Upgrade

    When I knew that I was getting an MG5, I phoned the DNO to ask them to check the service fuse rating. They said that as part of their commitment to low carbon technologies, if the maximum demand was greater than the limit for single phase, they would upgrade the supply to 3 phase. It was a...

    Dog guard and boot divider

    First time EV owner here, and very pleased with my MG5 so far. I've got a question for the forum though. One of the reasons we got the MG5 is the possibility to put both luggage and our dog in the boot. I know MG sell a dog guard for the boot, but I was wondering if anyone could recommend one...

    New to MG EVs - I have a few questions

    We just took possession of a new MG5 EV Exclusive. We also have another EV, a Tesla Model S 90D. I'm reasonably impressed with the MG5. It doesn't compare to the Tesla in terms of features and tech but for the price (almost a third of the Tesla) it's a pretty good car. We have had the Tesla...

    Insurance ?

    When I changed from a Merc E class estate to the MG5 my insurance for the Merc was around £700 per year, after getting into the MG my insurance remained pretty much the same, I then paid a bit more because I had tints fitted and an admin fee for private plates to be added. The insurer was esure...

    What jack should I buy?

    Ok, I've done what a few others have and picked up an mk5 Golf spare wheel from Ebay for £25. The bolt pattern matches although the overall diameter is somewhat smaller; but it only needs to get me to the nearest tyre place so not a massive issue. Now I need to buy a jack, but there seems to be...
