MG4 (2022-2025)
I am new to this Forum. Just writing this to say that I am very impressed with my first year of trouble free motoring in my Trophy Long Range.
Initially I was apprehensive about converting to an EV but was attracted to the concept. I had test drives in an MG4 Trophy, Cupra Born and BYD Dolphin and thought that the MG was the best option.
The motoring press were raving about what a good buy the MG4 was, backed up by good test drive reports. But they also pointed out the poor customer feedback on reliability. I questioned some friends who had MG EV's and they told me their cars were very reliable with no breakdowns. I checked some of those negative reports on Trustpilot and found that lots were to do with dealership issues and not the car and several did not relate to the MG4 at all. With that in mind I purchased a new Trophy and am very happy with it. With the dreaded LKA switched off I really enjoy driving this car.
Finally, through this forum I found a link to the very good and informative video's about the settings and operating the MG4 by Burl Solomons. I would like to thank him for that.

Welcome to the forum. Glad to hear you enjoy the car as a lot of us do.
I used to switch LKA (and AEB) off before every journey but since the SC077 update was done at the last service I no longer feel the need to do that. It's not perfect but much improved since the update.

I agree with you, it is a great car, I have the same as you with the extended range and a 77kw battery, I have been driving for many years and would say this is the best car I have had.
