BTW, when calculating financial figures, if you're buying new from a dealer don't forget to factor in delivery charge, first registration fee, ev fueling charge(!) and 12 month road fund licence, depending on the deal you can work out (y)
Strangely enough, no it didn't feel big at all. It was remarkably easy to manoeuvre in tight spaces, presumably due to the rear wheel steering, which you don't really notice the rest of the time. I did remark to the salesman at the time that the turning circle was akin to that of a London taxi...
Folks - take a deep breath and pour a cup of tea - this may take a while and not cover the car's features as you want, but hey - it's an honest view! Please feel free to reply to this post with any questions.
Well, I've had my test drive of the new IM6 at Drive MG Bristol North. So, as...
I wonder if this is the same issue I get with my phone. When it can't see a signal, it gets very hot because it's using a lot of power searching for a signal. Could be a similar issue with the MG4 12v battery 🪫 🤔
Right, had a phone call from Drive North, Bristol today - booked in for a test drive of the IM5 tomorrow. I'm led to believe that the demonstrator is a 100 LR, which is the model that is my main interest. I'll report back my impressions (y)
Had my MG4 for 3 years almost and never even knew there was a speed limiter🙄. Other than cruise control that is!
Even if I'd known about it, there's no way would I enable speed limit sign control! Far too unreliable sign reading!
In that case, maybe a school zone. Mine certainly "bong"s every time I approach our local schol, whether a route is set or not and I was sure it did it for the speed camera I pass most days.
A bit late in responding, but I've only just found this myself.

This is the part I mean. I don't know whether ticking the box (which would be telling porkies at the moment) would trigger the enquiry invalid or bring down the wrath of the MGOC on me! I didn't want to risk it.
I suppose I'm not actually intending to order anything - yet...:unsure:
Unfortunately until I've been a member of a qualifying group (i.e. in my case the MG Car Club) for a minimum of 3 months, I can't register on the MG Affinity scheme so can't access the enquiries section. Only 2 months and 29 days to go..... :)
Done :). Now to wait until December, which is going to be busy. My PCP agreement ends on my existing car, and it's due its 3 year service and its first MOT - all at the same time :eek:💸💸💸
@salty can you see the Affinity price for the long range IM5?
That Affinity deal looks incredible. I must admit, I had thought about joining the MG Owners Club some time ago, but never got around to it. I think I may just go for it now!
Unfortunately the IM5 doesn't have any buttons either, although it does have a couple of stalks - one for indicators etc and I believe the other is for cruise control functions.
Where did you see that the MBUK IM5 will be "stripped out"? Would honestly like to know, as the IM5 is on my list of cars to replace my existing vehicle.
Other than changing the yoke style steering wheel to something more conventional, what other differences are there between the Chinese IM L5...
