    Best I've ever pulled is 30kwh and that's from ultra fast ones (150+). I can see from specs that the most this MG can pull is 80kwh but has anyone ever come close to getting that? Just done my first long distance journey down to England so been good to have some practice on the motorway...

    Dead charger

    Hi all. I've had my MG5 for 15 months now and annoyingly my 13Amp 3pin charger that I've been using to charge at home has died. It's not the fuse, there is no power going into the charger. Annoyingly is was only covered under warranty for 12 months (which is utter madness). Has anyone had a...

    MG5 facelift Hotspot?!

    Hi folks. I don't think I'm imagining that there was some form of WiFi hotspot trailed as part of iSmart for the facelift MG5s, but I can't find any official info on it? There's obviously some sort of data connection to send info back to the app but couldn't see the hotspot itself mentioned...
