    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?

    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?

    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.
