    What car did your MG4 replace?

    I had a 2019 M140 Sundown Orange - both last 3L and rwd car in its class 340bhp. I find the MG runs out of power at 70 while the 140 would give you a kick in the back (where permitted obvs). The 4 can accelerate faster if the wife is in the car as she is unaware of a revving ICE. The 4 (with NHS...

    EON Next Flex Drive

    I've just gone solar so bit of a curve to understand whats going on. Advised that SEG was most straightforward under Octopus. BG wanted you to send queries by email which they did not reply to and Eon were going to take 2 weeks to do things that Octo did in a few days. Wasn't life simpler when...

    EON Next Flex Drive

    I've just changed from BG and was considering Eon. Didn't try on here but no one on another of my interest forums had a code either which might say something. Was not convinced when I phoned them either. Octopus appear far more switched on (hope you see what I did there :) )

    Non-Tesla EV Charging

    Surprised to hear that. I used to deliver EV's (Ford,VAG) 3 or 4 years ago using all the Apps and that got me out of metaphorical scrapes many a time. If you managed to contact most of the suppliers that trick saved them having to do anything their end :) . It was having gone through the steep...

    With all chargers and cars if you lock and unlock the doors 3 or 4 times in quick succession you will release the charger.

    You CAN road trip an SE SR

    Our company had their own fuel storage and took out a contract with BP which meant the price we paid at pumps was the same price whichever of their fuel stations we used (this saved keeping receipts etc and was a great boon). They extended that to an electric contract and where that worked it...

    You CAN road trip an SE SR

    On retiral I delivered demonstrator cars across the UK which meant that I have most apps on my phone, most over 4 years old. Unless used regularly you tend to find they need updated, credit cards updated etc. They all tend to have their quirks with sequencing. Tesla on the other hand tend to be...

    You CAN road trip an SE SR

    There is a shed load of more than 20 minutes of grief in that, never mind the cost.

    MG4 Extended range discontinued?

    Would have taken an ER for the extra range rather than larger motor.

    Privacy Notice Declined

    Partial malfunction of iSmart app – Vehicle Status not displayed

    The best mine has worked was when I was in Thailand. It upgraded while there in December and I naively thought it was the upgrade which dramatically improved the performance.

    Macklin Motors MG Edinburgh West - MG Dealer Discussion, Opinions & Experiences

    Just bought a Dacia Spring for the wife from a Vertu. It had less than 200 miles and pre-registered. They had not valeted it and bodged a clean while I was buying it, Then the MD wanted me to cover his back as I had bought a service policy direct with Dacia while I was fuming looking at a dirty...

    Hastings YouDrive cancelled my insurance citing harsh braking & acceleration

    Last year I mistakenly wandered into the blackbox deal by Hastings and duly transferred back to normal asap. Renewed today as they were cheapest (after a number of searches and a discussion)

    Podpoint and scheduled charging; app settings reverting

    Another little teaser from the PodPoint for the first time in 18 months. The car was not charging (we reckon this goes back to last weekend) and looking in the schedule it was offering the next charge on Monday at 00:00 rather than Sunday at 00:00. Despite saving to Sunday it would not reset...

    One for the Driving Instructors: Can You Use Auto Hold in a Driving Test?

    The law states you should apply the brake when stopped at lights. Much to my chagrin my boys were taught, by professionals in a manual car, to keep their foot on the brake, the clutch engaged and in gear to pass their test as it was easier for learners. Thus, yes you can use auto hold.
