    The Paranoia of driving an MG EV

    Even though I have only done about 270 miles I'm very impressed with the car. OK I know it will take a few more miles to know all the user settings to make it truly mine. The lane keep assist is actually quite good although I have set the sensitivity to low. From the comments in the forum it...

    The Paranoia of driving an MG EV

    I have only driven my MG ZS EV for 2 weeks but have been avidly looking at these threads and YouTube videos for nearly 2 years. The driving has been fantastic, very easy to get used to this one peddle driving and rock solid road handling, as well as enjoying the rapid accelleration on a few...

    Vital equipment for charging in the UK

    I was really lucky as I had asked my dealer if the car came with a type 2 lead. They said no but offered to find the price of an MG branded one. I had already seen the very expensive price of the MGtype 2 lead and declined. So bought one from Amazon which arrived one day before the car delivery...

    Charging When It Is Raining.

    Thanks for this timeades. I live in the Somerset so the rain has been dreadful over the last few weeks as you say. The rain hood might be a good idea. I will have to look into this.

    Vital equipment for charging in the UK

    Vital equipment for charging in the UK Good morning everyone, just sat in my car this early morning getting a little energy topup at my local carpark. It suddenly occured to me that the one piece of equipment I had forgotten to purchase was probably the most important for any EV driver who...

    Overtaking lights not extinguishing

    Interesting to know Striker. I wonder if the radar can be affected by dirt etc? I believe that the front radar? can be affected by heavy rain from other posts across the forum. With a little more experience I guess we will see, but fortunstely its worked fine for me every journey. Love the...

    Overtaking lights not extinguishing

    So, I have only had my car for under a week, I have had no problems with the blind spot detection. However, I can see that rain and other things like road dirt could easily affect the cameras used for this. When I read about the operation of these tools I knew I would have to occasionally check...

    MG ZS EV Trophy Connect can't get Nav to work-RESOLVED

    I should have gone to Specsavers! So obvious now I see it. I will try this afternoon. Many thanks. After several frustrating days I managed to find the 'Reset to factory Defaults' menu item. Once reset I had to give the head unit a chance to setup whatever it needed. This means some patience...

    MG ZS EV Trophy Connect can't get Nav to work-RESOLVED

    You know I tried several times to find that setting this morning without success. Busy now but will try later. I have noticed that I'm on an old head unit software version R22. Could this be the issue?

    MG ZS EV Trophy Connect can't get Nav to work-RESOLVED

    Thanks N2STY. I have contacted the dealer and am waiting for a reply. It was suggested that I reset the head unit by long pressing the home button. I have tried this with both the toggle home button and the on-screen Home button but it just seems to turn it off and on again. No reset. Am I...

    Unable to activate my ZS EV

    This seems to be a growing problem. Got my MG ZS EV Trophy Connect on Wednesday and I can't get the Navigation to work. I have raised this with the dealer but no answer yet. I have been able to set everything else, but it took some time. The car defaulted to CYPRUS which caused all kinds of...

    Android Auto - Found Good Lead

    As I have not yet been able to get the NAV working on my MG ZS EV I needed to get a short USB to USB-C connector to use Android Auto for navigation. Since I live in the South West I called into ProperJob, a good place to buy cheap tools and many other things and picked up this lead. As soon as...

    MG ZS EV Shipping Updates

    Unfortunately I cannot get to that screen as it can't activate and just asks me to try again later. I have done so in multiple locations with no luck. I have started a new thread about it in the hope that others have had a similar issue and can point me to a solution. Still loving the car. The...

    First day of driving an EV

    Is the Osprey the one at the Bear Inn? If so there have been a few occasions when its been broken and also people complainibg that they are receiving parking fines when using it. Apparently its not well signposted and difficult to pay for parking anyway. Unfortunately I'm in a flat with no...

    Fully Charged show Live - booked

    I managed to book for Harrogate just after Christmas as I knew the supply issues for MGs probably wouldn't enable Farnborough, but hoping that my car would arrive before then. It has thankfully, so I will be there on all 3 days.

    MG ZS EV Shipping Updates

    The doors seem to work OK for me. The only thing I'm having trouble over getting the navigation to work. I have temporally moved over to android auto which was a breeze to get going. Literally just plug in the phone.
