    If you think putting your car key through the washing machine is bad...

    If anyone does lose/destroy a key, it is usually much cheaper to get a locksmith to program a new one, rather than go to a dealer. My Lexus key was going to cost around £500 IIRC and the locksmith did it for £180 using a VW fob! Much stronger than the original.

    Service price for second service at only 14,000 miles

    I was under the impression the warranty is only valid if it is MG serviced? Is this not correct?

    Service price for second service at only 14,000 miles

    Will you take your MG4 to a different MG dealer for a service next time? I was just thinking about the warranty - for what it might be worth?

    This is hilarious

    He has hit the nail on the head. People who have never owned an EV have really no idea how good they are compared to an ICE car. Servicing and running costs are much cheaper BUT also it is a lovely driving experience. I actually prefer to drive the MG5 than my Lexus NX300h! I really can't see...

    MGS5 Trophy Long Range - 3 phase charging ?

    I think he was just showing where the pins should be located. On that photo they are missing.

    What car did you have before the X Power. ?

    Very interesting. 2 hour test drive sold me my MG5 - low expectations - the car has just kept on giving.

    MGS5 Trophy Long Range - 3 phase charging ?

    The knowledge base on this forum is so useful. Knowing very little about electric cars, I have gained so much. But it also reminds me that I still have lots to learn and absorb!

    Rear View Mirror Removal

    I have the same issue but in every car I drive! I put it down to age!

    My MGS5 Trophy LR has arrived!

    If the MGS5 is as good or better than the MG5 then it will be a cracking car!

    My MGS5 Trophy LR has arrived!

    The tri-colour red is the BEST colour (if you can get one!) Looks lovely! Keep us informed how you find the car. Out of interest what car (cars) did you have before the MGS5?

    Drat! That boot is too small for me if the figures I have seen are correct.

    I've Succumbed!

    I am not familiar with car dealer / manufacturer economics but I don't understand why they are offering such big discounts on a relatively new model? Could it be in preparation for the launch of the MGS6? I think my MG5 PFL SR is lovely to drive, so from the comments above about the MGS5...

    I've Succumbed!

    I hope it is not the Marvel, as the boot is small! Marvel R = 357 litre boot - compared with 507 litres for the HS.

    I've Succumbed!

    Saw the MGS5 in the showroom - impressive but the boot was slightly smaller than my MG5PFL - though the boot floor did drop making it deeper - good for the dog! However, I really liked the HS hybrid next to it. Much bigger boot - wondering if the MGS6 will be as big? The deals on the MGS5 are...

    Thank you Clive! Is there any information about how much the discount will be? Or is that down to the individual dealer?

    Which EV, new or used, would you change your MG for?

    My experience of a diesel Renault Kangoo was disappointing. Our MG5 is the first non-Japanese derived vehicle we have bought and it has blown me away to be honest. If I get the time I will post a SHORT one year experience review!

    They still don't get it! (EV sceptics)

    The only part I fully agreed with was the charging cable being from a reputable source! It was scare mongering. The guy that had the bad fire STILL drives an electric car! Says it all really! I did wonder what model it was that burst into flames (£50,000 car)

    Which EV, new or used, would you change your MG for?

    Toyota do a Proace Verso now. 200 mile range.

    What is Affinity? A special discount?

    Which EV, new or used, would you change your MG for?

    They are made by Chery - the biggest Chinese exporter of cars apparently.
