    myenergi Gridpay Auto Schedule

    Just had the December payment from myenergi Gridpay. I used 112 kWh charging the car at home and got a refund of £5.25 which reduces the amount I pay per kWh to 2.81p

    I'll add the cost of a packet of wet wipes for your digit to the calculations.

    Cost of Ownership

    The percentage loss for AC charging at home is nearer 12% than 20% and I don't think you can count the 3p/mile until it comes in. The taxi might be an EV paying the 3p/mile or a hybrid at 1.5p/mile. Depreciation is a difficult one to include in the calculations as the car hasn't depreciated...

    MGS5 Service Schedule

    It looks like they've changed the service schedule for all of their EVs to every two years. What happens to MG Assist which is renewed for 12 months after each year's service? Can those who have paid for an annual service schedule get a refund for the years they don't now need...

    S5EV boot mats

    It depends on how you usually have the boot floor. Mine is permanently in the upper position and I keep the stuff you like to have in the car but will hopefully never need like a type 2 cable, an old coat just in case, warning triangle, puncture repair plugs etc. under it.

    Snow mode

    Yes. Which is why in snow mode the regen is reduced to stop the back wheels locking up.

    Cost of Ownership

    Car ownership isn't just about making financial sense, it's also about convenience and enjoyment. I'm retired and do less than 3000 miles a year but while I am able to afford it and my health allows me to do so I will continue to have a car. It's one of my hobbies and now I have an EV the...

    Snow mode

    The main difference between front and rear wheel drive is what to do when you need to regain control of the car. In rear wheel drive you just take your feet off all the pedals and engine braking slows the rear wheels straightening the car up. Front wheel drive you have to apply some power so...

    Internal/external charger?

    I have an untethered charger. In my opinion: 1. It looks neater 2. The type 2 cable can be taken with you although I've never needed to use it away from home. 3. There have been a few cases of the cables being stolen 4. I keep it next to the front door so it's easy to grab and connect to the...

    Member of the month

    I'm only doing MGS5 and General so I'm not doing too badly but it explains why the moderators have an advantage over the rest of us. As for you @LenEV2016 you need another hobby 🤣 Perhaps I should go and cause mayhem on more forums 🤔

    Snow mode

    No. And I'm not going to either unless you want to lend me your car 🤣. In those days the cars weren't worth a lot and were repairable at a reasonable cost. Mind you I did do a power slide in a 40ft single decker turning into a side road in the wet. It was a Volvo Paladin with the engine from...

    NO wonder our our queries go unanswered

    He's been promoted to Customer Service Controller so he doesn't have to reply to the public any more. Probably the case of promoting him out of the way.
