Drivers Handbook

Does the car come with a Drivers Handbook, or do I have to rely on the electronic one ?

Have you ever known a brand new car not come with a driver handbook? I haven’t. I don’t have a 5 so can’t say 100% but I’d say yes

Yes. My last car (a Range Rover Velar) didn't have one.

Yes it does. But, like mine, it probably won't have the addendum regarding the roof rail loading. This is supposed to be picked up at servicing. It doesn't have a paper service book as these are now kept online, but I believe you can request a paper print out of your service.

The online one (which appears to have a date of March 2021) states that the max load is 75 kg.

I thought it was only 75 kg for the new MG5 LR, 35 kg for the previous model?

That's right. The website specifications show that.

I though there were 2 manuals online. One for the standard model and one for the long range, although looking again at the LR one, it talks about buth standard cruise control and ACC / MG Pilot so maybe it's a combined one.

Yes, my LR came with a paper copy of the manual, and also an infotainment manual (that I couldn't find online).

It should have the car manual, the navigation manual and the AA card etc. in a plastic wallet in the glove box. If it's not in the glove box it could be in the boot somewhere.
