    X Power Alloy Wheels

    I was going to get a bx14 for my car car. I remember looking through the exchange and mart as they used to list all the vehicles in front with the specs. The Citreon BX14 had the highest hp in an insurance class 4? and below, it also had electric windows and power steering. I never got one...

    X Power Alloy Wheels

    That doesn't surprise me that he stacked it; they were very witchy on the back end and could easy catch you off guard. I bought mine for 25quid. The rear turret for top of shock has rusted through, a quick welding repair and was as good as new. I also had a mk I astra diesel do the same, however...

    X Power Alloy Wheels

    Love the list of 80-90's cars; I also wanted a handful of them. If I had only kept some of my beauties. Some of my favourites that I owned. Several Astra SRI/GTE's 8v & 16V, Sierra XR4I (2-door RWD) Ren 5 Turbo, a reasonable list of XR2i - XR3i's & Orion Ghia. Early Saab 9000 Turbo (big turbo...

    MG4 Xpower times vs battery

    I've had a few times times when I've had to crawl back home on 0%. I'd rather not do it, but I have limited chargers available to use; on the odd occasion they have been out of action. The charging network isn't what it needs to be yet in my area. Having said that, it's put on charge as soon as...

    MG4 Xpower times vs battery

    I started off charging every night to 80%, but I drive somewhere between 25km - 400km daily depending on what I've got on. Generally I'd plug it in if I need the range for the next day or at 40-50%.

    X Power Alloy Wheels

    I like the 1st set on the orange car. I think it's more that it looks lowered and larger wheels than anything else though.

    MG4 Xpower - Australian real world km range

    I'm also in Perth and regularly go to the Bunbury area. I can JUST do it on a full battery, but thats only if I find that the chargers are out of action. Sadly for us here, we don't have to many options with fast chargers. I've found I have no difference in range between driving modes, although...

    MG4 Xpower times vs battery

    Hi all, we're pretty much out of winter now and the roads have dried up. (Perth Australia) So I ran a few more times. It's seems really interesting that now I'm pulling numbers like I would expect. I was hoping to get it down the drag strip where there'll be good traction (and legal) but haven't...

    MG4 Xpower times vs battery

    I was looking at the dragy unit and was seeing how they compared. I didn't end up getting one, as the phone apps seem to compare reasonably well and close enough for what I need.

    Nice, was that on a track? A little extra traction.

    Not been a great week..

    There isn't a MG dealer in Welshpool, but John Hughes has his main service centre there. I think the issue is more so that the normal mechanics don't know these cars. I mentioned it somewhere else, that if something has broken or worn out, it can be found and fixed / replaced. But with all the...

    Not been a great week..

    Is there not a dealer in Rockingham? I thought John Hughes was there. From stories I hear, John Hughes is supposedly a good dealer in general. The Perth options are on Leach Hwy Myaree, Midland and Nedlands. I bought from Nedlands and it hasn't been a pleasant experience, although I did get a...

    It's very frustrating isn't it. Hopefully they will sort the screen out quick enough, I'd expect the vents to take longer being a bit more intermittent and not being able to trace the issue. I wonder if it is linked with the screen in any way. For what it's worth, I joined a BYD facebook group...

    MG4 Xpower times vs battery

    Thanks for the long response. This is essentially what I'll be doing. I'm just trying to gather the evidence to go back to them with. Even if there is more than one minor fault, the issue is dealt with as a major fault which then relates to a replacement, refund or repair within a reasonable...

    Went in for updates, came out with older version. Went back for updates again, still got older version. Went in with a list of issues, came out without any answers and was told they couldn't find any issues. Granted, most of them are intermittent random issues.
