I saw a red S5 (75 plate) in Tenterden on Monday morning - I'm really surprised we don't see more, the S5 does seem to be passed over in any mid-range family EV discussion, especially in the usual EV YouTube outlets who are obsessed with the Skoda EVs at the moment.

I've had my car for over 3 months now and have still to see another one on the road.

Agree. It's still probably a bit of badge snobbery. Not realising how good and what good value for money the MGS5 is.
To be fair it still happens to a certain extent with Skôda. Anyway there loss.

I saw a red S5 75 plate in Headcorn last weekend. Wonder if its the same one

Had our car for about a month now and NOT seen another S5's in the wild.
Then yesterday, I was approaching junction in our small village and a blue one crossed straight in front of us !!!!.
I mean, what is the chances of that ! .
When we bought our 1st ZS EV back in 2018/19 we went for about 6 months before we spotted the first one out on the road, the driver flashed their headlights at us.
They must have been on the look out also.

Haha... at the start i keep mistaking the MG for a Volkswagen - similar tail lights and logo shape

They do take "inspiration" from VW nudge nudge.

They seem to be common as muck in East Anglia
