    UK Owners - How many miles are you getting on a full charge?

    In another thread I mentioned my first ever Range Anxiety problem. I had 60 miles to get home and around 78 on the display but I'd been watching it slowly get shorter and no way would I have enough. I thought what would I do in my ICE car so I dropped to Cruise Control at 60mph and when I got...

    I've also found that Cruise Control at a lower speed gives you way more if you keep your foot off the accelerator.

    UK Owners - How many miles are you getting on a full charge?

    As the title. When I bought the car it was 100% charged with 289 miles on the clock Trophy 64KWh. Of course I know that driving habits change this figure drastically but now in Winter I'm sure I'm getting way below what I should be getting - 100% charge with 195 miles. Of course the heating...

    Where would you have an MOT?

    I'll just take it to the garage I used for my ICE cars since 1975. I thought a dedicated EV MOT might do different things, I haven't seen them for three years.

    Would you go to a dedicated EV garage like the one I bought the car from or can any garage do an EV MOT? Thanks

    Is range anxiety finally defeated in England?

    Without reading Google Maps I thought I knew exactly where I was going 70 miles away. As I got closer I looked at the map and it told me to turn off which I thought was strange but I obeyed and followed my destination point. About a mile from Leicester East I saw a sign for it and then realised...

    Is range anxiety finally defeated in England?

    What a coincidence. The only time in 15 months I wanted to charge I stopped off at Leicester East. I'd taken a wrong turning which put me 60 miles out. No worries I'll stop at Leicester East and ask somebody what to do :) There were no chargers so for the first time ever range anxiety set in. I...

    Have MG sorted out the MG4 yet?

    That did happen to my wife once but luckily nothing behind her.

    Have MG sorted out the MG4 yet?

    What exactly do you mean by 'sorted out' and undriveable? Are you on about the Lane Keeping Assist? I leave it on because it's less of a problem with updates but the wife always turns it off.

    MG4 Trophy What a car.

    All my bosses ended up coming from there after that. Back on track, we have quite a few staff at RSUH with MG4's but I cycle to work for the last 15 years :)

    MG4, Zappi and Octopus Intelligent Go

    After a few more days every time we charge Octopus will take our CHARGE To down to 40% or lower where we get a bad schedule, change it to 80% and a nice schedule comes back. I know you said they are stamping down on it but if they really want to do that why don't they just say 'Your car won't...
