So I bought an MG4 - One week in the cable locked to the car whilst charging (as normal) but it wouldn't release when finished. 40 minutes of pressing buttons on the MG app and in the car failed to solve it and given it was pouring down I left the car overnight and went home to read the manual.
Turns out there's an emergency release cable inside the rear boot behind a small panel that simply pops off with a screwdriver and hey presto solved the next morning ....or so I thought.
The car then wouldn't take any charge at either the station or at home so a call to the AA - who couldn't help either and the car has now been sat at the dealers for two weeks as they await parts. The garage told me the part wouldn't be in the UK until 3rd November and when I complained said that they could take it from a new car - nothing heard since.
My first venture into electric car ownership and to say that I'm raging would be an understatement.
