    The great big insurance rip off

    Plus being personally liable for any damage or injury you cause. That's unlimited liability. May not be so important to a penniless lawbreaker, who can just go bankrupt. But it may be more significant if you have any assets or savings, that would need to be used to compensate for damage you...

    Parking Buttons

    I never use either of the parking buttons. I just press the on/off button. The green light goes off and I exit the car. The parking braking seems to take care of itself.

    Warranty still valid? - Bought 2022 ZS EV with no proof of first service

    Is it possible to get a copy of the digital service record from a dealer? Seeing as it is the only service record, I would have thought that it should be provided to custormers who own the vehicle.

    Accessing "Digital Records" service history

    I've bought my 'MG Trophy EV Long Range' in October 2022. I'd like to check the service records. Does anyone know how to access the 'MG Digital Records' service history?

    CarPlay dongle

    The password 12345678 doesn't work for mine. Does anyone know of any other passwords that might work?

    Will selfish EV owners inhibit the uptake of EVs ?

    Truth be told I am also in this situation and use the local PodPoint at Tesco, which is the best of a bad lot. This is why it’s such an annoyance to me. The fossil fuel companies BP Pulse, Shell Energy etc charge three times the home rate, when they have access to cheap, cheap, wholesale rates.

    Will selfish EV owners inhibit the uptake of EVs ?

    Anyone prepared to regularly pay public charging extortionate prices, deserves to have their head examined and be allowed a little leaway

    Ease of access for older people?

    I think you’d be best off with the ZS. I love mine and it’s super highish.

    I have a cushion which I position in the small of my back.

    MG5 review after covering 120,000 miles.

    Considering that EV cars using public (rapid) chargers are considerable more expensive to run than cheap petrol cars, I think not.

    Mirror indicator distraction.

    LED light blocking stickers, if you want to be really neat. www.amazon.co.uk/Blocking-Stickers-Dimming-Filters-Blackout/dp/B0BLGPKZTG/

    Mirror indicator distraction.

    I think the curent instruction is now often, "Mirror - Signal - Mirror - Manoeuvre"

    Ease of use of heater controls (edited)

    I completely agree. Not a problem that's confined to MG. It seems like my phone, computer, everywhere I go, have l lots of screen real estate and minute buttons.

    PodPoint at Lidl

    Terrible pricing. Makes an electric car more expensive to run than a small, petrol car if you have to use public ev chargers. Surely, BP and the rest have access to wholesale prices way below 30p And could charge way less.

    Is it possible to totally run an EV on just a Granny charger? ?

    I'm using a 3kWh public charger. It consistantly charges my ZS long range at 5% an hour, which is fine for me.
