Cables that came with MG5

[Geo68]

I've read with interest that the cars don't come with charging cables. When I picked up my 5 from the showroom, in the boot were those.

Looks like you got a Type2 and 'granny', did you buy through the Affinity Scheme?

Yup, they all come with a granny cable and Affinity gets a Type 2, and some dealers have been known to throw one in anyway (often as a bargaining freebie, like mats etc)

I don't think my dealer liked me - he even quoted me £105 for mats when they're priced at £74 and change on the MG website.

No, didnt qualify for that

We got a type 2 with our lease. I just assumed they were standard!

At least 2 of the leasing companies include a type2 cable as standard, some also include a home charge point. A result of past customer criticism that they expected the car to come with one.

My previous car was ex-lease, it had a box full of car goodies supplied by them - warning triangle, some wax, glass cleaner etc etc etc. All intact and unused at 3 years old.

Oh that reminds me, got a warning triangle as well.

The warning triangle is tucked in under the boot latch in a red plastic container
