    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?

    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!

    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!

    Review of ZS EV - and warranty comments...

    This is an interesting and I think quite fair review. Right at the end the comments about the 7 Year warranty are interesting and could be misleading for perpective buyers don’t you think?
