    Just taken the plunge and I already need more advice!

    Hopefully the 2022 was a typo? the rear wiper is factory fitted and should be the dead giveaway.

    Probably won’t get an MG4 again

    I had the privilege of working in the maintenance sheds for Manchesters Metrolink . The electric motors are the size of a medium/large barrel with two on each bogie. They needed the least maintenance of any of the vast amount of parts which make up a tram and were reliable. But were designed to...

    Probably won’t get an MG4 again

    Industrial motors tend to be a heavier construction and run for longer periods at a constant velocity without the acceleration / deceleration and changing torque curves that EV motors are subjected to. A similar comparison could be the bearing arrangement in an alternator in an ICE car, although...

    Probably won’t get an MG4 again

    All spinning high torque motors will suffer wear and tear problems if used long enough. Quite a few Nissan Leafs suffer bearing wear which need replacing, and some Teslas have coolant seal failures in the motor leading to failure, both electrical and bearing corrosion. The quality, fitment and...

    Cars you’ve smoked ?

    If you are of the view that EVs are good for the planet etc etc. Then blowing off the occasional "fast car" may make that owner think , Wait on a second , I'm getting one of them " and thus EV adoption would increase. So it can be seen that not only is it satisfying and fun but must be seen as a...

    Throttle Travel/Response

    There is a constantly changing small power meter in white next to the regen information symbol , bottom right of the drivers screen. When it goes into minus figures and green its showing regen percentage. Because it need a bit of concentration to focus on you'll need to be familiarised with the...

    Throttle Travel/Response

    After a while and you have got used to it and adjusted, try to monitor the power settings and make sure that on a empty bit of road, it goes to 100% power delivery. Also make sure your new throttle disengages autohold when used. If not a quick dab of the brake will disengage it , better that...

    Android auto

    I'm surprised at Siteguru , this was happening to me and his advice was to make sure the Android Auto cache on the phone was regularly cleared. This worked for me!

    Thank you DOGE!

    In a country where the vast majority of cars are of French or German origin it was two and a half years ago and a minor consideration when choosing a new vehicle. Should I go with the crowd, or save myself a few grand and suffer the embarrassment of both electric and Chinese ownership. Today I...
