    Which wall charger?

    Hi. First post here! I'm thinking of purchasing an MG5 and unsure as to which wall charger I should opt for. Is there a general consensus on what brands to go for / avoid? And does it make any difference who my energy supplier is as to what box I get? Thanks in advance for your feedback!

    Rear 2number plate option

    I’ve found a online UK number plate supplier who will supply this size plate which enables you to remove the black plastic bar under the rear number plate and replace it with this size. I think it looks tidy!

    How can one set default values for Mode and KERS?

    As the 5 is "out of the box", it starts up in Normal Mode and KERS 2. I'd like the ability to set different power on defaults and have my car start up in Eco mode and KERS 3 (if it'll wear it, though I think KERS 2 might have to do as that covers all states of charge).

    Can the MG5's headlights be switched from right hand drive, over to left hand drive?

    I'm hopefully heading to the continent for a wedding in the summer. My old car could switch the headlights over from the dash. I found the following online: I was wondering, does the MG5 have such a lever in the headlight housing?
