    Cars you’ve smoked ?

    This is the way I reckon ! I don't want to charge about everywhere doing double the speed limit. But MUCH FUN hooning up to the speed limit. And … err … occasionally giving it some jandal on a passing lane.

    Cars you’ve smoked ?

    I must confess, for safety reasons I bought a radar detector

    Cars you’ve smoked ?

    A month or so ago I found myself having to floor it when an older M5 decided to gun it when I went to overtake him. I put my foot down for safety reasons of course 😈. I wouldn’t say I was surprised, but he probably was, when I left him in the dust. Today I was following a Nissan GTR, and...

    XPower (only) colour POLL

    The dealer was so disappointed when I asked for Camden Grey. But bugger it … I like dark grey, and I hate washing cars !

    Better infotainment needed on MG4 / X power

    Is it an Android specific issue with phone pairing etc ? I have an iphone and find it great, no issues at all

    MG4 Low Charging speed compared to friends EV

    Just my understanding … Mg4 does 1 phase only. 1 phase at 32 amp is 6kw, but 16 amp would be half that. A lot of electricians dont realise (or cheap out?) and install home chargers with 16 amp fuses. You've got to insist on a 32amp fuse Edit: and the charger needs to support 32 amp

    Mg 4 power steering failure

    I’ve had a EPS fault in another Nissan car teaching my daughter how to do reverse parking. After leaving the car for 30 mins it was fine. Could it just be overheating from the 36-point turn ? The fault on my MG4 was definitely different, it was first thing in the morning. But haven’t had an...

    Stone stuck between Brake Disc & Brake Disc Cover - VERY LOUD SQUEALING !!

    I had this recently, couldn’t free it the normal way, took the wheel off at home and prised the stone out. I do wonder if they should remove the lip from the guard or something so the stones dont get stuck

    Sudden automatic braking issue (merged, MG4)

    If they would release a version of the MG4 with a lower NCAP rating that would be excellent. I’d happily swap. Had no idea when I bought it that I would find LKA so annoying

    Xpower carted off the field

    Umm yup yup, I had this fairly recently You mean EPS though right ? Electric Power Steering failure. One other person has had it as well. In his case, they just disconnected 12V battery, reconnected it and sent him on his way. For me - same as you - they collected the car. Kept it for over three...

    X Power Alloy Wheels

    Maybe those Oz wheels would actually get better range ?

    X Power Alloy Wheels

    Well, its a personal choice, but I asked the dealer to remove the caliper covers before I picked up the car. Wolf in sheeps clothing ?. Honestly I think the std rims look ok. But I do wonder how much improvement you would get with aero covers
