Has anyone been over to France in the MG5 LR. If so how was the charging facility’s on the motorways?
Still free. At the moment it's no booking a space, it's first come, serve first. I plugged in at 7am, and it's was full at 5pm, so moved it so a non charger disabled bay. Also four out of the 20 are disabled EV charger bays, even thou thinking about it, the regular disabled bays look more busier than the disabled+charging.That's good to know as we are renewing our DLP annual passes next year (skipped this year as we were desperate to get on a plane to somewhere sunny). Are the chargers still free in DLP?
I agree about Alton Towers. It's a 180 mile drive for us so if they had a bank of destination chargers we could drive there, charge, and get home without stopping! We were there 3 weeks ago and there is plenty of space and what seems like capacity for charging.
We're going down to the South of France in three weeks. So far, I've got a Chargemap RFID card (as well as the app) as that covers a lot of the country's regional chargers under one umbrella. I will be using a travel adapter to hopefully charge on site (although that's not a dealbreaker).Has anyone been over to France in the MG5 LR. If so how was the charging facility’s on the motorways?
Thank you for your reply, I would be interested in how you get on.We're going down to the South of France in three weeks.

I've got a tag from e-Movis to pass quickly through toll booths. I've added a monthly subscription to ABRP Premium, to give me real-time updates and have backups ready.
My wife has an Ioniq so I've subscribed to Ionity chargers through our 'Charge My Hyundai' account, which is £11.25 a month but reduces the cost from 69p to 25p per kWh (even though we're going in my MG5 LR).
I think that's mostly it for now...
