Taking the plunge

[ArfurM]

Hi Folks, another one joins the club; following an enjoyable test-drive this weekend, I placed my order with Budgen MG at Shrewsbury, who were very pleasant and helpful, and am due to collect next week. The MG5 certainly seems the best "bang for the buck", and well screwed together. I lurked here for a bit, picking up the vibe and I have to say there seems to be a lot of very happy and genuinely enthusiastic owners, which it reassuring. As an footnote to my purchase, I was due to test drive the VW ID.3 the same day, notwithstanding some less than complimentary comments about it on the VW forums. However, I got a call the evening before saying their demo had a "minor fault" (hmm? software I wonder?), so given that, I skipped it...
