    Long motorway round trip in MG S5EV – practical charging strategy & costs

    That's true but you don't get the pre-payment authorisation charge with the Octopus card which a lot of suppliers charge.

    Front Demist button stuck

    Might be a bit of dirt or polish causing it to stick. Try switching it on and off several times to see if that fixes it otherwise it's a trip to your dealers. If the car was out of warranty I'd suggest a squirt of WD40 but you don't want to do anything to invalidate it.

    Joke thread

    A man was taking a taxi to the airport for a business trip and tapped the driver on the shoulder to ask if he knew the way. The driver let out a scream, veered across the road before slamming the brakes on. "You're a bit jumpy aren't you?" the passenger asked. The taxi driver replied "This...

    Tax Code for Pensioners.

    I've just had my pension payments confirmed and for reasons I can't quite work out but probably to do with the option to opt out of SERPS for a few years (an option which ran between 1978 and 2002) and having protected payments, which have been added to my standard state pension, I'm getting...

    Passenger window failure

    All the cars from that era look small now. I used to have an Austin Maxi which was a large car in the early 80's. I saw one a couple of years ago and it's tiny. The MG4 is 248mm (9.7 inches) longer and 210mm (8.3 inches) wider than the Maxi. No wonder I have to breathe in down country lanes.

    Passenger window failure

    I wound the front passenger window down as I set off to clear the window yesterday morning and it wouldn't wind back up again. Neither switch would work. The fix was to stop the car, get out and lock it before getting back in and trying again. It worked and has continued to do so ever since...

    MGS5 12V battery dead

    I replaced the one on my MG4 as a precaution after 18 months with a Yuasa YBX5012 from Amazon and I will do the same after the 12 month 12V battery warranty runs out on the MGS5. I haven't checked but I guess the battery on the MGS5 is the same size. The car seemed to have less fleeting...
