    Hi All Did any MG5 EV owners get theirs with the Green Strip on their registration plate like the following ? Did this come included with yours or did you have to custom order them ? Mine have the dealers plates on them with their name at the bottom (which I'm not a big fan of) and are...

    Alloy Wheel opinions

    I've been looking at wheels as the standard ones feel a little dull to me. I'm not really sure of sizes etc as I've never changed the wheels on any of my past cars. What do you think of this one? the MAK koln black mirror?

    Pretty decent review of the MG5

    I liked his style and info, although it's with a pre release demo from September/ October as it still has the batt label on the switch.

    Gone fully EV and bought an MG5

    Just bought a 399 mile, 70 plate, Dynamic red, MG5 exclusive, with protection pack for £21,449 to go with my ZS EV, so we're now fully EV. Traded my 2016 Prius and SWMBO's 2006 Prius and got a very good part-ex on them, well happy.

    Infotainment system

    Quick one guys. Is the infotainment system as laggy and unresponsive as some of the reviews claim ? Or is it being over egged slightly cause its not 'iPhone standard' ? Thanks for your help. Cheers

    MG5 - future enhancements

    I have had my MG5 for 3 weeks and have identified 2 enhancements that would be useful: 1) Frunk/Froot under the bonnet. If the plastic ‘engine’ cover is removed there is plenty of room for the charging cable to be stored above the motor components. The plastic frame that supports the central...
