    Can’t locate auto high beam/dip on my IM5

    I think (poor memory, me) it was on this forum that someone had mentioned that the IM5 and IM6 for the UK and Euro markets don't have the relevant sensors, nor the matrix headlights other markets seem to have.

    Can’t locate auto high beam/dip on my IM5

    Who was that with @JSGP? That's about the same price as I paid Tesco Insurance. Might be worth a look @graymattishall ?

    News on delivery of first Batch of IM5

    Regarding the mats - my dealer said that, as I had the Affinity discount applied, they couldn't afford to give me any freebies! I'm ordering a set from carmats.co.uk. My MG4 had mats from there and they fitted and wore extremely well. BTW - has anyone seen anywhere selling a screen protector for...

    Can’t locate auto high beam/dip on my IM5

    I can't say, personally, that I would miss this feature to be honest. My recent MG4 had it and I found it far too slow to react to oncoming cars. However it was only too eager to switch from high to low beams every time it caught a glimmer of a reflection from reflective road signs. There's a...

    News on delivery of first Batch of IM5

    At last, I've had the call 😁. Nevis blue IM5 to collect on the 16th. Well, it's currently blue but it depends on the wife's opinion as to whether it stays that colour or gets wrapped in metallic purple. Managed to get insurance through Tesco (£520 fc), so relatively satisfied with that. Looking...

    IM5 Owner's Manual - Printed Copy Anyone? (Cancelled)

    Tesco is my cheapest quote (£418) so far as well (y)

    IM5 Owner's Manual - Printed Copy Anyone? (Cancelled)

    @Vipar yep, that's what I assumed. But, I'm now getting almost daily emails from the comparison websites, and the quotes I'm getting are decreasing by the day! I think I'll wait to arrange the insurance just 5 minutes before taking delivery!!

    IM5 Owner's Manual - Printed Copy Anyone? (Cancelled)

    @mystreet that is a good site indeed, however I was looking to gather enough interest to obtain a bulk discount with the printer I already use. I was able to offer the MG4 manual for less than £10 and looked to do the same for the IM5.

    IM5 Owner's Manual - Printed Copy Anyone? (Cancelled)

    I had a call from the dealer yesterday to say that my car was due this month, but no specific date. I do believe a couple of boats are due into Portbury today (2nd) and next Monday (9th) with IM5s onboard, but even if mine's on the first boat, it'll be a week or more before I expect to hear that...

    IM5 Owner's Manual - Printed Copy Anyone? (Cancelled)

    Well, I've cancelled this idea as only two people have expressed interest - and I was one of them! Apologies to @Vipar and anyone else who might have been considering the idea, but too late! ;)

    News on delivery of first Batch of IM5

    When I bought my MG4, three years ago, I had to sort the insurance myself, no dealer offer of insurance then. Assuming it's still the same for the IM5, good luck trying to find a sensible quote!!

    I ordered mine on 9th September - still radio silence :(

    Insurance for MG IM5

    I have since requested quotes via MoneySupermarket and now, all of a sudden, I'm getting quotes of less than £500 from the same companies that were quoting £1500 plus originally and just last week not quoting at all! It's a confusing mess!

    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)...
