    MG has beaten rivals to the punch - Auto Express

    Apologies again! I messed up that previous post by somehow adding my reply at the bottom of @KasEV ’s post

    MG has beaten rivals to the punch - Auto Express

    @KasEV But how does it fare against other electric or hybrid models? It’s noticeable that even Tesla doesn’t appear on your list. Again, you’re not really comparing like with like.....we all know that ICE vehicle sales far outstrip EVs

    MG has beaten rivals to the punch - Auto Express

    And continuous griping and downplaying of what is a very good EV will do nothing to help their growth! If MG sales are allowed to continue to grow at their current rate, they will become a major player. At that stage, with their market secured, they are much more likely to respond to other...

    MG has beaten rivals to the punch - Auto Express

    How many different models do Ford manufacture? You’re comparing Barcelona to Accrington Stanley to make your argument look good.

    Car beeped at me today

    There is absolutely no way you will ever be allowed to lock your key inside the car! The other day I was out with my wife and we both had our keys with us. The car was parked (locked) while we went shopping and we returned to put some bags in the boot before going for lunch. My wife decided she...

    Free chargers

    Presumably you’re at the caravan park and they will have agreed the costs with Pod-Point. If you pop up to West Street car park in the village, there is a free 22kw Polar charger.

    Incorrect ZS EV GOM readings.

    Totally agree with @Exdro - GOM readings are guesstimates based on past recent driving history at the start of a journey but will adjust up or down depending on the current driving style and route taken.

    Free Charging for a week. Who is up to the challenge?

    I’ve just done it! Drove down to Dorset (165 miles) and added another 500 miles exploring the Jurassic Coast beaches etc. There was a Tesco superstore half a mile away from our holiday cottage and each evening on our return I plugged in to a FREE Pod-Point 7kw charger, walked home and went back...

    Ali Express Roof Bars (for the Excite trim cars)

    In that case, since they are a bit on the short side, I wouldn’t bother!

    Ali Express Roof Bars (for the Excite trim cars)

    I don’t think they look too bad. Depends on whether you’re trying to “pass off” as an Exclusive or really need roof bars!

    Howdy, neighbour!

    I spontaneously waved at a ZS coming towards me the other day (again, unsure if it was an EV or not) he didn’t respond and probably wondered if I’d mistaken him for someone else. My wife asked “who was that?” and promptly p*ssed herself laughing when I explained that is was an involuntary...

    Info only not MG related. Wow just read the following about Mitsubishi

    I had an Outlander PHEV for a bit more than a year and enjoyed the electric experience so much that I resented putting fossil fuel into it and couldn’t wait to switch to full EV. Ordered the ZS Exclusive at the end of last year and it was due mid March but lockdown put paid to that. Finally got...

    Considering buying a ZS EV - Any advice?

    I would definitely shop around for an Exclusive - when I ordered mine at the end of last year there was less than £2k difference and the extras were well worth it! Due to Covid I only took delivery last month but absolutely love it. As KasEV and Kithmo both suggested, there should be plenty of...

    Charging Stations on sat nav

    I’m still waiting for my update, but I’ve always had charging stations shown on SatNav

    Heater and Air Con not working new car

    I’m a bit concerned now - the dealership you have just left is the one that I got my new car from 4 weeks ago! I’ve not had any issues with the car so far and the service staff seem to be very amenable and customer-friendly BUT my C2 update scheduled for last week was cancelled at short notice...

    Say Hello

    I really enjoyed the Outlander as my introduction to EVs. The latest model has apple CarPlay, a more powerful ICE and a slightly better electric range but I still happily traded it in against the ZS! The main things I miss are climate control a/c and electronic tailgate. What I don’t miss is the...

    Say Hello

    Hi, I had been a turbo diesel driver for many years until they became pariahs and, whilst I’m not a tree-hugger or green activist, could see the benefits of EVs (apart from the horrendous cost, of course). I bought a Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV at the end of 2018 and loved the ‘electric...
