    Changed up again, MGS5 on the drive

    I do agree but suddenly my wish list has expanded a bit… Taking each idea one by one..

    Changed up again, MGS5 on the drive

    It’s definitely on the bucket list, might defer my pension a year or two and stay on at work to get one! My Dad held off buying an MGF until they’d dropped below 10k, same thinking here (though I doubt they’ll ever get down to that figure - hopefully they’ll start with a 2 in a few years time….) 🤞

    I think it’s got the £400-odd luxury car top up.

    Changed up again, MGS5 on the drive

    I bet they will! Every car I’ve had from them has been at least 30% discounted…😉 (Actually it’s the eye watering road tax that makes it a 5 year plan….)

    Changed up again, MGS5 on the drive

    I think I’m going to buy a 5 year old Cyberster when I can. My little pipe dream….

    Now that is a good answer!

    Changed up again, MGS5 on the drive

    My 5SE had rear speakers, lights, cup holders and armrest, the ZS Excite didn’t (ok, low spec) but neither did the XPower. At least they don’t do the Rover skinflint thing like Noddy hooters, that was unforgivable even back then.

    Changed up again, MGS5 on the drive

    I’m not knocking the 4 stalks per se, but several times when I pushed for main beam I flicked the lights off. But the main benefit of the OG stalks is the fog light switch is there not in the far corner of the screen - for when that car behind hasn’t dipped his lights. Oh and the S5 doesn’t have...

    Changed up again, MGS5 on the drive

    I turned the voice volume off on the screen and don’t get the interruptions now 🤞 Strangely while the regen defaults to 1 every time now I’ve turned on one pedal driving it does default to that. OPD is very good and not harsh like it was on the XP so I’ll leave that on. But the economy/range is...

    😊 Still getting the speed warning even though it’s switched off.. Also the regen defaults to 1 and needs switching up every time. Plus points the ac is excellent and the economy too. Still pleased with it 👍

    Changed up again, MGS5 on the drive

    Ok first update…. 😉 Set up custom pilot, switched off the speed nanny, she still interrupts the music and repeatedly tells me the limit. Fine if I’m speeding but if she’s read it wrong (as the MG4 frequently did) this will be really annoying. Consumption at least 25% better than same route in...

    MGS5 Accessories- what’s worth a look?

    Not much out there yet, car came with dealer mats so will use my MG5 rubber mats on top for now so I don’t lose the new car smell! Mudflaps going to be a consideration this time, I think the car would wear them well and I do need them.

    Insurance for the MGS5

    Direct Line were the cheapest (of all the quotes, not just firms I’d heard of) on Money supermarket. Set it up easily and excess half the XPower’s.

    Binding MGS5 to iSmart app

    Picked mine up today and setup was different to the 5&4 but yes you need to look for the user menu on the screen. Bound it straight way, in fact easier than it was to unbind the ; when I dropped it off!

    Changed up again, MGS5 on the drive

    Collected my MGS5 Trophy today after just 3 basically ok months with my XPower. My 4th MG from Waylands Oxford in less than two years - because their deals have been so good. ZS Excite 1.5, FL 5 SE, 4 XPower and now a grey S5. Cash price was £21300 through last weeks deal, paid a moderate amount...

    Depreciation Gap Insurance

    Cost me £56 to update my GAP to 36 months on the S5. Still not recognised on their system as it’s so new but all done on a recorded line. Will check in soon to see if it’s gone on the system anyway. Never had to claim it and hope I don’t but their call handling has always been top notch.

    Depreciation Gap Insurance

    Pick up my MGS5 tomorrow and tried to change my Motoreasy GAP online but they don’t recognise the MGS5 yet. Will ring them in the morning. Motoreasy had been good over the years, found two old GAP polices I’d forgotten about and credited me towards my ZS ICE GAP. Switched it to the 5, then the...

    XPower in shop, Trophy on loan

    👍😊 It’s a stonking car the MGS5, best one they’ve made yet. And at £21300 for top spec and met paint an absolute steal.

    XPower in shop, Trophy on loan

    Sorry gang I’ve been too busy to get here for a while. Having a tidy up with my emails, decided to drop the dealer a line checking in on ER 4 offers. Had a surprisingly positive response. Went in to them this morning, had a test drive, I’m afraid to say I’ve jumped ship! 3 months and 1800 miles...

    XPower in shop, Trophy on loan

    Well the 2.5k buyout was one! The XP drove serenely when loaded to the max and it was a lovely relaxing drive. The range was way better than expected so that was good, and the two-up B road point and shoot stages were a blast. Didn’t notice before as I usually drive in Eco, only using normal for...
