£25k for a new one is pretty much a no brainer even with the known issues.Hi,
I can get a stonking deal on an Xpower at the moment (£25300 new). I’m aware of the potential vibration issue many are experiencing so have factored that into my decision (thanks for advice already given on that subject in another thread).
I already have an MG4 SE, so I’m aware of the general shortcomings of the MG4 and I can live with those.
I’d appreciate feedback on things people don’t like or have had problems with specifically with the Xpower, like; harsh ride quality, excessive rattling, bonkers insurance quotes, general hate from BMW drivers?, anything other the infotainment being crap and the sort of things I’m already used to. I’d also like to know about positive stuff!
I’m pretty close to pulling the trigger on getting one in Camden Grey. I got an SE to escape my lemon Curpa Born, expecting not to like it, but I’m really happy with it!
Should I upgrade? I really don’t want a repeat of the Born experience! For the vibration issue I’ll get it in writing before signing for it that they will fix it if it has that problem within a month or I want my current car back. I’ll ask for the same written agreement about the latest updates for the car. Though to be fair the dealership I’m using is really good for after-sales support!
Oh mate, a few sleepless nights while you wait, and that Camden Grey is a superb colour.Mine has arrived at the dealers. Paid the rest of the deposit and they brought it around for me to look at. Isn’t prepared yet but looks great. Very chuffed with the colour!
Collect it on Thursday
Yeah, I’m a bit excited! Definitely well chuffed with that colour!Oh mate, a few sleepless nights while you wait, and that Camden Grey is a superb colour.

Camden Grey is certainly the best colour
Haha, I’ve not seen an orange XPower in person. Looks good on pictures thoughMmmm, if you lot say so.
It’s a very bold choice!
I was disappointed to pass an Xpower in Camden Grey in the next village over from mine today. Also followed a Matte Green on Thursday. Swear I never saw them until I picked up mine Monday.
Absolutely no evidence of this , but I reckon the grey and red have tougher paint finishes.???? than the other colours.Haha, I’ve not seen an orange XPower in person. Looks good on pictures though
I’d never seen one in Grey until seeing mine today so was glad I liked it so much
No idea yet but the last few cars I’ve had were stone chipped to death in the first few weeks. I doubt this one will be an exception so I’ll soon find out
So mine’s just coming up to 6mths old with 7k miles on the clock and just noticed three stone chips on the front that have all appeared since the recent cold spell and when there’s been loads of gritters out on the road. Not very happy!
I feel your pain but I’ll probably have that many by next weekendSo mine’s just coming up to 6mths old with 7k miles on the clock and just noticed three stone chips on the front that have all appeared since the recent cold spell and when there’s been loads of gritters out on the road.

One of the easiest cars to find in a car park, which are usually a sea of grey. I get to look at one every day
It’s not really like I expected and more like a wheel balancing thing between about 65 - 70; shaking rather than vibration. Seems worse under acceleration. I’ll get on to them about it but it’s not something I can’t live with from my initial experience of it.
