    MG4 Granny Charge versus Public Charge Until Wallbox Installed

    Thank you. These are very helpful insights into the realities. The solar point although not immediately applicable is interesting as I have a dumb mode smart meter but I do consider getting solar anyway. I am hesitant as I have dormer windows which will doubtless cast a shadow and winter skies...

    MG4 Granny Charge versus Public Charge Until Wallbox Installed

    Hi, I am finally getting an MG4 Trophy LR next week but my Wallbox isn't getting installed until a month after I get the car. I have a 30A RCD supplying a socket just inside my garage door. I am wondering should I: 1. Charge at the Dundee Supercharger for a month? 52p/kWh ...or will this...

    Seeking Regen and AC Recommendations for New Owner

    I've finally ordered my Volcano Orange MG4 Trophy LR and after test driving an MG4 this week I have some questions. I think it may be useful to understand the driving style I am coming from as I suspect I will need to change. My former sports car driving self would be surprised to learn that...

    Octopus Install of Ohme Home Pro

    Hi John, It's an internal meter box in the hall that connects my downstairs rooms and they will need to exit the cupboard, cross 1 or 2 metres of hall and pass through boiler cupboard in one direction or utility room in another for another one or two metres before before exiting the house and...

    Octopus Install of Ohme Home Pro

    Hi, I have just placed an initial order for the Ohme Home Pro from Octopus and am now having a nagging doubt... My consumer unit and meter are in a cupboard in my hall and I reckon they will need to take the cable out the cupboard then through either the utility room or boiler cupboard to get...

    Poll: What’s your favourite colour MG4?

    It turns out my wife prefers the orange so that settles it. It's too close to call for me but I like to keep my wife happy. I liked seeing everyone's opinions. Thank you.

    Poll: What’s your favourite colour MG4?

    I cannot decide... Orange or Red. Is orange more likely to get keyed when I abandon it for a night when I go for a drink? Is red a little more classy? Or is Orange just cheerful...

    Batteries : MG4 SE SR versus Trophy LR

    A very good question. There is one feature that I have never had in a car that would make an enormous difference to be and that is the heated steering wheel. For reasons the professionals have yet to figure out I have neuropathy and Reynaud's which means that for 10 months of the year the...

    Batteries : MG4 SE SR versus Trophy LR

    Ah Copenhagen I must go off topic... so much good food including Restaurant Schønnemann and just look at this for art, science, engineering and craftsmanship.... You make a good point in that 80% of the NMC batteries is more than 80% of the LFP so for long drives the NMC batteries do have an...

    Batteries : MG4 SE SR versus Trophy LR

    I intend to buy a Trophy LR because of the heated steering wheel, rear speakers, and faster DC charging speeds (although this may prove to be inconsequential in reality) however there is one thing that is niggling at me which I don't think will change my decision but I still would be interested...

    A Space Saver Tyre is a must!

    A couple of years ago I got a nail through the sidewall of a tyre on my Octavia on the ten mile drive back from getting four new premium tyres fitted. I was far from happy

    Signs of a(n) (un)healthy battery in a Used MG4

    On the one hand there is my heart obsessing about a shiny new toy and on the other there is my brain saying that I have a lump sum coming next year which is more than I can squirrel away in an ISA. I am not entirely sure which bit will win. Replacing my wife's car with a newer model was...

    Signs of a(n) (un)healthy battery in a Used MG4

    Thank you all. It sounds like the risks are pretty low but I can do some verification to put my mind at ease. I am trying to postpone my purchase until next year as I will have more cash at hand than I wish next summer but I am champing at the bit!

    Signs of a(n) (un)healthy battery in a Used MG4

    I am new to buying used cars after a life of buying new and running until 10-11 years old. For ICE cars I would test drive and see if they gave performance similar to what I expect and require. In short, approximate was fine for the ICE car and approximate for battery health is fine for EV...

    Signs of a(n) (un)healthy battery in a Used MG4

    Hi, I have been looking at used MG4s but have just realised that I am measuring their battery health largely on mileage and thought that this is possibly insufficient therefore I would like to hear your sage advice... How should one measure battery health when buying an MG4? Practically...
