    My first long journey

    I did my first long journey yesterday mostly on the motorway and dual track. Went from Worcester to Brampton in Cambridgshire. 104 miles each way. Left at 10:30am M5 to M42 then on to M6 to the A14. The journey took me two hours each way. I set the ICC to 60 mph and only twice flicked it up...

    First longish trip and rapid charge

    We took the car on its first decent run since getting it, up to Winterton-on-sea in Norfolk. It was about 100 miles each way and a mix of dual carriageways and normal roads. I put MG pilot on at 65 mph and was pleased with how it behaved. I decided to do a quick rapid charge on the way back...

    Anyone remove the roof bars on the exclusive?

    For me the roof bars are unnecessary and (I think) cause extra wind noise / drag at higher speeds. Anyone remove them?

    Intelligent Octopus 6 hours at 7.5p per KW

    Hi just noticed that Octopus offer a special 6 hour rate for certain cars and wall chargers, the usual suspects beginning with T etc, but you can add your car and charger to the list as they are “working hard” to add new cars and chargers, so if a lot of us MG owners put in a request then maybe...

    Anyone installed a large 12VDC to 220V AC Inverter in a MG5?

    I would like to put a relatively large DC-AC inverter into my MG5 so that I can have 'mains' plugs to run vacuum cleaner etc. when working on my boat, which does not have a 'mains' nearby without many many meters of extension cords. There is plenty of room in the bonnet on the Thai version of...

    How did he do that?

    I parked my MG5 in Love Lane carpark, Nantwich yesterday and connected to the charger there. The car was charging when I left, and I had of course locked the car. When I returned about 40 minutes later the car had been disconnected and another car was using the same connector that I had used...

    Has anyone else had this?

    My cloak of invincibility seems to have stopped working for no apparent reason, should I do the spanner trick or take it back to the dealer? :)

    V2H power supply (vehicle to home)

    Hi I notice that the new model has this so you can use it when camping and caravaning to supply power. ( and also for home power cuts if you keep the amperes down to a minimum). Do you think we could retro fit this on the 2021/ 2022 models?? Sounds a great asset. Is it as easy as finding a...
