What car did you have before the X Power. ?

[Caramaddy]

................got a bog standard MG4 because I expected to be disappointed and didn’t want to spend loads of money on “cheap Chinese crap”.

Turns out I bloody love the thing. It’s a really good car! It’s flawed but my expectations were low. It’s easy to live with and I came to regret not buying a higher specification one.

I’m going to love it’s replacement

Very interesting. 2 hour test drive sold me my MG5 - low expectations - the car has just kept on giving.

I had many Nissan Leafs, 2016 30kWh, 2019 62kWh, 2021 and 2022 40kWh versions due to good leasing deals.
Big upgrade with Xpower to charging speed. And speed

Yes still have my 30kWh, near on 9 years i have had it, been faultless had a 40 kWh also since then, hope the MG proves as reliable.

What's the peices of wood, for. New Drive?

 

[JonnyG]

I was wondering the same !!

What's the peices of wood, for. New Drive?

To mark where to park the car so that the charge lead still reaches but the car isn't too close to the garage door to prevent it being opened.

But what about the big orange thing behind it?

 

[Chrisdriving]

Yes new driveway, the surface is still a bit dodgy due to relentless sun.

Thought so. Good idea, so you don't get dents in ya, drive.

Yep, good innit.

The wood is worth keepig for supporting any future jacking of the cars too, as that can certainly leave an indent in the tarmac (as I have found out !! )

My drive is all bricks. Looked great till the ants moved in...

You can't beat a 60 year old concrete drive with a few cracks and covered in patina. No dents when using a jack and no worries from fluid leaks... the car not the driver.

Yeah, definitely the best for jacks and axle stands.

Clare has a mum and dad bear, like myself she has lost both parents and when we go away anywhere special she takes them along with us and likewise when we have anything done at the property which was theirs she grabs a photo of the old with them before replacement.
