My only confusion is.....Why they made the alarm work this way ;)

Safety reasons, because they did not fit windows that can sense if something is being pinched and then "reverse" a bit. This is the first car i have owned with electric windows, that has not had windows that would close all the way, just by holding the UP button for a second and then releasing...

You do know that if the car is locked and you have the key in your pocket and go to the boot, the car will release the boot, but not unlock the car and then if you just walk away the car is still fully locked and the boot will offcourse not open. So it knows the key is there, otherwise it would...

Yeah, they saved 5p per door for the 3 doors that does not have it.

Why would it start, if if does not feel that the attempt to open the boot, was valid. The key is near the boot, that's why the boot will open, so why would it think it was a theft.

If you mean "anti-theft" ones the answer is no. You can buy some, but atleast here in Denmark, you would need expensive high end rims for that to make sense. "No one" steals factory fitted rims on a "cheap" EV...Not here atleast.

Blimey, if there were ever a bulb that should be replaced with a LED it must be this one. Would be ideal if someone made a whole replacement with watertight housing to swap it out. Failing that, i would probably replace with a LED, make sure it made good connection with the socket and just...

To be honest, you should not base your decision on what model to get, based on 360 camera or not, it's really not worth it, the cameras look to be 0.1 MPixel ones. My kids call it "Minecraft graphics".

Yeah, the main problem is, i know who is the one that will have to come sort it out for her in the end. I bet she wont think about using the digital key in the app. She is good at many things, but the technical part and logic thinking is NOT some of those things she is good at. :p

Then it does not trigger the alarm, but for that to happen, my wife would have to be thinking and if she did that, she would probably just have taken the keys out of her pocket before she put it in the boot. This is a case of "It would literally be easier to get MG to fix this in software, than...

So my wife has this bright idea to put her jacket in the boot when she leaves work. Problem is, if she goes to the boot, jacket in hand, put the jacket into the boot (And forget her key is in her jacket pocket), the boot will unlock for her, because the key is there, but the rest of the car...

To me it looks like your adaptor has the wrong resistor value inside. There is a resistor inside that tells the car what kind of cable is connected (And if it is a charger cable, it also signals to the box on the wall, how much current it can handle) If they put the wrong resistor inside, the...

Has this car been fully updated, i seem to remember there being instances of complete bricking of cars back in 2022, where the car had to go to MG and they had it for days and weeks to fix it. Right about the time ours got totalled, there were talks about an update that should fix it ?

Xpeng does it, Polestar does it, Volvo does it, GM does it and even VW which is the embodiment of legacy car makers seems to have OTA updates. And even more brands like Audi, BMW, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar, Mercedes, Nissan, Stellantis (Vauxhall, Peugeot, Cooper, Jeep etc.) and Toyota seems to be...

Sounds like something is on the fritz. The E-call function being "unavailable" is not uncommon. Sidenote : Do not press that button unless it really counts, i accidentally hit it and there seems to be NO way of cancelling the call, so i had to apologize to the 112 operator a lot when it...
