Yes since i have had the car , its really been the 1st time i need to defrost / demist the car in the morning , so im still playing around with the heating. You can use the defrost / demist button , and i then change the temp from low to 25 ish , but this starts the ICE. Once it clears then i...

I think this has been mentioned before , no there does not seem to be an OFF on the radio.

Yes the HS phev has it. I personally like it as when you stop ( for example in traffic) the auto hold ( handbrake?) comes on , so you can take your foot of the brake pedal. When you touch the accelerator , then it releases and you start moving.

I decided not to get a 7Kwh charging point installed as the phev cannot use the full benefit of it , and as stated can only use 3.7 Kw max due to the limit of the charger on the car. The granny charger delivers 2.3 Kwh , so you are basically paying £600 for 1.4 kwh faster charging , which may...

very interesting , please keep us updated

went camping recently , and had to follow the warden ( who was on his bike ) to my pitch. He said he loved the sound of the car ( I was in ev mode) as it sounded futuristic in a si-fi way

The granny only needs to be on for 5 hours on a phev. So the 5 p deal is great, I have the go faster , 5.5p a kw and got the time range 20:30 - 01:30 , so perfect for the phev.

Ah the power line adapters are connected on my ring main , but not in the garage where I plug into the mains 3 pin socket

no I do not feel any vibration either

Re the power line , yes I use them for ethernet that's why I was confused. They don't stop me using the granny charger on a wicks 10 A extension lead.

If it saw the charger plugged in , then the lead out the back of the car on the picture you sent , would show bluey green. Just to make sure , you are not using an extension lead ( is this what you meant by power adapter?)

I have to agree with Electrickery , its no use planning to stop to top up as its so slow , unless you can top up at your destination for free, for the time you are there. So I manually switch between EV mode and hybrid mode , when I go on longer trips than the ev range ( I did manage 36 miles...

hi suds 32 , no there should be no issue. I use the type 2 connector on a free pod point 7kw charger here in the UK. I personally open the charging port , then lock the car , once locked I connect the charger cable until I here it lock .As a double check I look at the dash to see the charging...

I unlock car , open charging flap , then go to get granny charger. The car then self locks by the time I'm ready to plug granny charger in , hold plug for a few seconds while it locks . No problems

you would have thought they could take the part (that did not work) out of a car they had to sell ( or a test one) , so it would get your car going , and when the part arrives they could fit it to that car.

I thought there was no problem with the ZS , I know thee was an issue for the MG 5 , there were stated as cosmetic only. This has now been updated ( as they have passed certain tests) and can carry 75kg i think.

Hi Kazuki no it does not come with mats or locking wheel nuts as standard. I negotiated the mats in free when I brought my car. I must admit I never thought about locking wheel nuts at the time, as I thought all cars came with them , and was surprised it did not come with them.

Hi Carpy from here https://netagon.co.uk/maypole-1-2m-90kg-locking-aluminium-car-roof-bars-cross-for-profile-flush-rails.html

oh good, im glad you get the idea as you have had a similar roof bars because i was no too sure i had explained it good enough lol

I got some universal ones Maypole 1.2m 90kg Locking Aluminium Car Roof Bars Cross for Profile Flush Rail They are £55 and do the job , but I think any universal ones of the same style should work. I used them and travelled a return trip to wales from Birmingham with a full roof box with no...
