    Long-term ZS owners

    From what I've read on here, it's a lottery 🤷‍♀️ From taxi driver with 100,000 miles on an MG4, without issue... see; Highest mileage MG4 owner through to this poor chap with 2 years+ of hassle with his ZS... Not how I thought today was going to pan out...

    Did someone mention winter?

    Obviously wind will be a factor - but my gut feel is that it will provide minimal cooling of cells in comparison to solar heating. PV panels are not that reflective and only around 22% efficient at converting light into electricity - the remaining 78% of light energy will heat the cells up...

    Did someone mention winter?

    Oh yes 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 :) I'm talking about cell temperature, not ambient. Cell temps will often get 20 to 30C hotter than ambient in full sun, so 40 to 50 in summer is likely.

    Did someone mention winter?

    (y) PV panels have a negative temperature coefficient of voltage (and hence power), typically around -0.3%/°C. In this weather (just sub-zero where you are?) then cell temp is likely to be only 5 to 10 degrees, compared to around 40 to 50 C in summer time. Hence, for a given irradiance, they...

    Yeah! It's Caliban the Snow Leopard :)

    Awww... we're not all like that - guess a VT request for the wife would cost too much ;) 🤷‍♀️ (only kidding, we know you love her)

    Maybe he just spotted that you were wearing odd shoes and was too polite to say something ;)

    VW ID BUZZ e Kombie

    No experience of the Buzz, but we're very impressed with our brace of VW ID EV's - I think they all use the underlying VW MEB platform. The 77kWh capacity in the '4' gives impressive range and the range of the 58kWh in the '3' is not to be sniffed at (y)

    Tomato Energy

    hmmm... don't hold your breath on that one - are TE still in existence enough to produce a final bill? :unsure:

    The sweet spot

    Surely, EV makers have a desire to be more efficient, so they can promote a greater range without incurring the cost of more kWh of battery?

    Your internal GOM was pretty accurate then! Enjoy the break 🏊‍♂️ 🛝 🚲 🐿️🍺

    Front passenger seat not folding flat?

    "Front passenger not folding flat?" I'm assuming the word "seat" is missing from the title or we've all been answering the wrong question 🧘‍♂️

    The sweet spot

    Great points. I suspect that , over time, your 40-70kWh range (possible 50-70kWh) will become the most common when it can be coupled with even faster charging times. Having said that, a larger battery pack will always be able to be charged (in terms of range) faster than a smaller one as...

    MG4 - charging from a 13A socket

    (y) 2.5mm^2 Arctic cable is ideal. Though you need a suitable plug for the wires to fit - see also this posting / thread about extension cables.. https://www.mgevs.com/threads/granny-charging.22332/post-383078

    Would you buy an MG5 with 7 MOTs before it was 3 years old?

    (y) when I bought my taxi, I had the SoH checked - though it didn't have the warranty limitations that MG impose 🚕
