Has anyone had a dashcam fitted yet? Asked the Dealer but they don't have any details yet. Would it be the same as other MGs so Halfords could technically do it?

Halfords??!! Please do not let such people anywhere near your car. Find a local specialist to do it.

Read on another forum that Halfords do not install dashcams on any electric vehicles.

I had a Nextbase one installed by RS Connect in my MG4, which was successful, but the battery in the camera gave up quite quickly. Its turns out it is considered a consumable and is as such only guaranteed for 6 months and costs £35 to replace.

Sort it yourself Id say with a specialist. I thought the car would come with a blackbox or its own recorder
Blackvue seems more premium. Just make sure its back recording post service or picking your car up.

Seems these are not in the EU market as far as I can see, would been handy if they just use the existing 360 cameras on Trophy for Dashcam.

We should focus more on a factory software update that would use the existing cameras as dash cams. The hardware is there and we could easily use a memory stick in a USB port.

Are MG updates frequent? Is my first MG. I love this in my Tesla that gets new things very often
So far all updates that I am aware of in the UK have to be done by the dealer. It is a big bugbear that there does not appear to be over the air updates even if the car implies it can do it.
