State pension is taxable, though pensioners are unlikely to pay tax in practice if their only income is the state pension. Saying it is not taxable implies that it is exempt from tax, which is not correct. It is possible to receive a state pension that is above £12,570 with deceased spouse...

Or a ton of people selling their cars before the car is 3 years old?

My MG4 was in this last week for it's 3rd year service. They just did one software update. This was for LKA and they said that it was a recall update. I told them I thought I'd had a software update for LKA done last year at the previous service, and they said that I couldn't have done as this...

I thought I read, but I can't remember where, that the sunroof was designed so it doesn't let in heat?

Their review is back to 8/10 again! https://www.electrifying.com/reviews/mg-reviews/im5/review

Looking at NCD they are showing £8,574 less than list price for the IM5 and £11,211 less than list price for the IM6. How do they do it?!

I haven't checked the official sizes, but it certainly seems that way though! Parking at train stations or supermarkets, the spaces definitely seem more of a squeeze.

I really like the look of the IM5, I currently drive an MG4 (which I have no issues with, other than the over zealous LKA, even with software updates!), but I have 2 reservations: - it's big! I go to some car parks in my MG4 and it's a struggle to open the door and wiggle out, as spaces seem to...

That's a good point. The first thing that my son does when he gets in the car (well the second thing, the first is to turn off the lane keeping assist, I've got him well trained!) is to connect to the car's wi-fi, so he might well be using a fair bit of data with whatever he's doing.

Thanks, that's what I hoped, but I've driven quite a bit in the last few days, and I'm still in the land of the unknown!

My MG4 Trophy's weather app was showing a location a few miles away until last weekend. Since then it has just been showing the location as unknown, no matter how many times I refresh the app, and even if I reboot the system! I don't use the weather app in the car much to be honest, but this...

She made it sound like there were so many periodic updates to the car, that its logistically difficult/too fiddly to just let it roll with an "update all" type of process. I have read people mention before that, for each possible update, they have to contact the servers in China, which can at...

I've just dropped my Mg4 off for it's 2nd service. I asked about software updates. They said at the service they do any necessary (recall) updates, but there's none outstanding on my car. As regards other updates, they said there are lots coming out all the time, so it's not practical to install...
