    Charging cable choices…

    I have a new facelift MG5 hopefully arriving next weekend, and we are considering what cables to buy. At home I have an untethered type 2 charger which runs at 32A single phase (7.2kW). However for out and about I understand that the MG5 can use 11kW three phase, which is 16A per phase. I see...

    Hi, new to my MG5 (pre face lift) only delivered on Monday and less than 200 miles on the clock so far. But need to do a round trip next week from Aylesbury to Seaford which is 107 miles each way (largely motorway). Should I start with the assumption that I could wear a coat, kers3, eco mode...

    MG Pilot vs Cruise Control + Lane Assist?

    Maybe I'm missing something but looking at the manual (don't yet have my Mk2 MG5 in the flesh). I can't see what the full MG Pilot offers on top of the functionality you get with adaptive cruise control on and lane keep assist on. Can anyone clarify please?

    MG5 public charging, slow charging

    Hi all, this is probably me being ignorant so bere with me. We have really used public chargers over the 18months of owning our MG5, and have never had an issue until yesterday. We drove some 180miles, charging once on the M6 on a 50KW no issues, then on the return 180mile journey we tried to...

    MG5 Battery Degradation?

    Hi, Just wondered if anyone has had their MG5 long enough or done enough miles to notice any battery degradation. I am not talking about the Guessometer, but the actual range you get. Please reply with the age and mileage of the vehicle to enable comparisons. Thank you.

    Hi there, I’m looking at buying a new shape MG5 in the next 3-4 months, and was wondering if any of you fellows out there can advise if dealerships offer discounts these days for a cash deal? The last new car I bought was a Ford 15 years ago and got 9% off?. Thanks in advance?

    Curious display error

    Driving yesterday on a mild and quite pleasant day we noticed the outside temperature display was showing -40! This seemed to have no affect on the car's heating and everything was comfortable and normal inside. Also we noticed that the time information had disappeared too. Once home I restarted...

    How does Find My Car work?

    On the facelifted MG5 the iSmart app has find my car feature, which seems to have 2 modes : 1. If car is some distance away you get a map directing you to the approximate location. How does this work? Assuming the car does not itself have data connection, I presume it relies on the phone having...

    ABI Codes for the new shape MG5 SE & Trophy?

    People seem to be having great difficulties finding insurance for their new MG5’s. Much like on the MG4 Forum, someone was good enough to obtain the ABI codes for the 4. Can anyone do the same for the updated 5?
