    No more petrol stations for us

    Picked up SWMBO's MG5 today, traded her 2006 Prius and my 2016 Prius and paid just under £8k cash. It's a 4.5 month old ex-demo Dynamic Red Exclusive, with protection pack, only 399 miles on it due to COVID restrictions, well pleased. No more watching the price of petrol ever increasing now...

    Very impressed with the MG5

    Got my Exclusive Red yesterday from the Chorley group. Very impressed with the car I must say, feels much faster than what it says. Smooth, fast and comfortable. For the money you just can't beat it. Love it!

    Well worth the money.

    This is good money for an exclusive, plus it has the option alloys I just bought. There is also a silver with the same wheels even cheaper. Just keep an eye out for that battery switch label. It doesn't work anymore so you don't want it labeled...

    Fitting a dash cam

    Doing a few bits on the MG5 first I fitted the 12v battery monitor that was a doddle just flip the cover off and attach the the positive and the the negative and a sticky pad to hold box on top of the battery. On the other hand the dash cam was a ball ache the fuse box cover is not easy to get...

    I could not resist

    the new MG5 was just sitting on the drive so off I went for a nice little drive to scotch corner to take my daily exercise which I believe makes this an essential journey driving with heated seat on climate control on the tunes playing away and my phone charging sitting at 70mph most the time...

    Clicking Noise

    Hello, We are due to pick up our new MG5 #teamblue, this Saturday. Dealer rang to say they are preparing the car and they are having issues trying to charge it. It is making a clicking noise when they try to trickle charge it. Any idea what the problem might be? Thanks in advance.

    Lead time on leasing

    I was looking to lease a new MG5 until I had a chat with a lease company today - I was informed the average lead time was around 5 months! Can I ask if anyone else has leased (or indeed simply purchased brand new) and if so what their lead time was please?

    MG5 EV Poor Range

    Hi, I've done 1000 miles in my new MG5 EV and I love it, that said I'm coming from a clapped out 307. What I am annoyed at however, is the exaggeration over range. The EV range and my SatNav have very different opinions. It is no exaggeration to say that the MG range in miles is much closer to...

    Remote boot opener doesnt work

    Anyone not managed to open the boot on the key fob. Expected it to open but it doesn't. No noises or clicking so starting to wonder if it's there for decoration like the roof bars!
