Ok guys. So after checking, this is the map version I am now running. Not sure if it's the latest. Prior to this version it was an earlier 2022 version. I think this version is a late 2022 version. This is the one that the system was telling me was an update.
Hmadsen, my car was bought new & registered on 30th Jan this year (2025). Similar to yours. Can you see in your settings what version of maps you have?

As expected your car did not receive any MAP updates OTA.
This version is the same one my car was delivered with, i manually updated the maps (Even though we do not actually use the built in satnav) to the latest version that is available on MG's website as of today (Just checked)
It is running "Map update 2023 Q4" i am not able right not to take a picture of the screen as the wife is at work and its her car so she took it
When my car car delivered i was told they had updated every module in the car to the latest version, it was on the computer for the better part of the day according to the guy at MG that handed it over, he said this was a part of the standard routine for a "preinspection and servicing" so i would imagine your car has got the same deal as well, which is why i would not expect there to be any actual new updates to send OTA, even if that worked.
I was also told the service agreement we signed up for would include a yearly update of any modules, where newer software was released, together with the stuff in the list of what's supposed to be serviced each year.
If memory serves the infotainment is running version R25 right now (Different number if you have one of the cheaper variants if i remember it correctly).
If you want to manually update the maps, go to this website and enter your VIN, it will give you an option to download map data.
Unzip to a folder, plug in and start from the menu.
If it gives an error, please search on here for that message, the gist of it is, you then need to delete 2 specific files from the USB drive and it will work, but i dont remember what they are called, but if you search here for the error you receive there are threads, explaining what files to delete.
