    A few things about the IM5

    Again, true but more and more charge points are contactless payment and don't need an app. I wonder if it's possible to interrogate the car via OBD2 to get the data :unsure:

    A few things about the IM5

    I should imagine it would if the car was only ever charged at home, but not if any charging is done away from home

    Returning Car after PCP Completion

    Thanks @Swampy 👍. Yep, going to leave 'em in the glove box 😀. I have offered to get some IM5 manuals printed, as that's what is replacing the MG4, but no real interest there yet.

    Returning Car after PCP Completion

    In my case, luckily I did manage to dodge the VED by retaxing before the change. Ironically enough, I was on my phone to my insurance company just as this response was posted. As my renewal date was coincident with the return date, I contacted them to see if I could transfer the insurance to the...

    Insurance for MG IM5

    True that. I rang Ageas for a quote and to start with they said it wasn't coming up on their system but when pressed said that I needed a registration number. C'mon, either or please!

    Insurance for MG IM5

    I'm rather concerned that most (if not all) of the larger insurance companies are either not quoting for the IM5 at all (e.g. my present insurer, Ageas) or are asking astronomic price hikes up from my existing MG4 (i.e. £1500+ for the IM5 100 LR compared to £390 for my MG4 Trophy). What do they...

    Returning Car after PCP Completion

    I'm returning my car (MG4) to the bank in a week or so (negative equity etc), and I'm preparing a list of "Got to do's" before the car collection guy turns up. If there's anyone who's already been through the procedure, can you tell me if I've forgotten anything please? Here's my list (so far)...

    I've been quoted 9 Dec for mine so maybe it's on board 🤞

    Insurance?

    And they wonder why so many vehicles on the road are uninsured! What I find rather odd is the lack of big name insurance companies prepared to offer quotes.

    Insurance?

    I have no idea who I've upset, but now the delivery of my IM5 LR is imminent, I've queried Confused.com and Compare the Market again, and the quotes I had a month ago have doubled! Tesco and Privilege won't even quote. Even my existing insurance company (Ageas) won't quote for the IM5 or IM6...

    IM5 Owner's Manual - Printed Copy Anyone?

    Just assessing demand at the moment @Vipar . After a week or so I should be able to establish if it is economically viable. Assuming it is, I'll post details on how to order them👍

    IM5 Owner's Manual - Printed Copy Anyone?

    As some of you, ex or current, MG4 owners may remember, a few years back I was offering (at cost price) printed and bound copies of the MG4 Owner's Manuals here As a soon to be new IM5 owner, I've been asked if I could offer the same service for the IM5 (and maybe the IM6). So, I'm posting...

    A few things about the IM5

    I think I may have to do a little more bargaining!!:)

    A few things about the IM5

    @KnightRider - RE the carpets question. In the LR demonstrator I test drove, the carpets were the general purpose short pile type as seen in most cars these days, not the plush looking ones in the reviews (or, indeed your own, by the sound of it). The salesman was under the impression that the...

    IM5

    You do indeed need to have been a member for 3 months. That's why I need to wait until the end of November, I joined the MGCC in August. The rules state that you need to be a member for 3 months before being eligible for the discount. As I haven't signed any agreement yet, other than to pay a...

    IM5

    I need to wait until the end of November anyway, since to qualify for the Affinity discount, I have to be a member of the MGCC for 3 months. The end of November is when that happens and, coincidentally, when the PCP agreement on my current MG4 ends. Let's hope the stars align!!

    IM5

    Lucky man - I was quoted 8 - 10 weeks which'll be practically Christmas before mine gets delayed at the docks is promised.

    Applied for finance

    It seems to be the same amount of discount as through the Affinity scheme

    Not much I'd say, but very happy to be proved wrong as I ordered mine four weeks ago!
