Bump ;)

Having recently changed cars, I have for sale a set of Yakima Whispbars and K328 Smart Foot adapters for the MG5. Good overall condition, fitting instructions, two keys for the locks and Allen/hex keys for direct fitting to the OEM longitudinal roof rails. This link, for more general info...

Boot length plus many more dimensions. https://www.ridc.org.uk/features-reviews/out-and-about/choosing-car/car/mg5-electric-maximum-range-5dr-estate-2022

After just 14 months of owning our first EV, the FL5 is being part exchanged on Saturday :(. We started the EV journey on mainly local journeys of 25 mile round trips twice a week plus local commuting to and from work (5 miles). However, we've found ourselves travelling more frequently to North...

Heh ho, Swarco RFID card it is. Not planning to visit Scotland anytime soon but useful to know.

A lot of my journeys now take me to North Wales, especially Anglesey. From previous charges, SWARCO are by far the most reliable, fast (45kw+) and cost effective. To date, I've always used either contactless or the SWARCO app to start and pay for the charge. But what would happen if I couldn't...

For speed and convinience, I've gone down the Musicolet route. All albums are on laptop in WMA format, just as they were on the USB. Successfully transferred them to MP3, reloaded onto USB but car refused to read some of the albums. Those that the car did read were all over the place and in no...

Currently running a FL5 EV but looking for a second family car, maybe the HS plug-in. Performance figures seem really good with 254 bhp and 184 lbs/ft but I guess this is with a fully charged battery. For anyone running an HS plug-in, do you notice a drop off in performance when the battery is...

For me, Halfords neat -20 screenwash + 200ml of meths for an empty washer bottle. Cabin smells a bit if you overdo the meths though...

FWIW, just updated app on Android to 2.0.2 and wow, front demist now actually works. Happy days :)

Whilst looking for something else in the "download manuals" on the MG UK website (the section where you put your VIN no. in), I came across an update for the nav. Current version in the car is 2022Q1, the update is 2023Q1. For anyone who's done the update, was it worth it and did you notice any...

Thanks everyone for the advice and suggestions. File transfer to MP3 is something I'll look at long term but for now, Spotify via AA has come to my rescue. My most played and favourite artists are on there, so will create a few playlists to keep me going.

Griff & Gomez - the original USB files are WMA. I did try conerting to FAT, FAT32 and NTFS using an online file coinverter but the car still refused to acknowledge their existence. I'm happy to stream using a free/non chargeable service but how and what is the question if the USB stick is a non...
