    Number plates

    AFAIK, the size of the plate isn't mandated, the size of lettering and spacing is, so, either of those plates would be legal subject to letter size and spacing being correct. I stand to be corrected.

    MG 5 Exclusive no rails!

    And the rear View mirror is manual not autodip on the outside view but not on the interior view, a mix and match video from Richmond it seems.

    Email I just sent to the Secretary of State for Transport

    I have completed it, it is easy enough to follow. It is worth doing in my opinion.

    Range today

    I watched a vid by petrol ped who was driving an Audi E tron. As he set off it gave him a range of 180miles, he wasn't impressed. In all, the MG isn't the worst, it seems, nor the best we know, but it's holding its own.

    Affinity and PCP

    Affinity I was told would still be available at least at Glyn Hopkins Milton Keynes, looking on Google it still comes up as available, worth a phone call to your local dealer.

    Whining- Motor/gearbox noise

    I though on the ZS you could turn off the alert in infotainment screen? It defaults to on when you start a new journey. I don't think the 5 has this facility though.

    Whining- Motor/gearbox noise

    Extract from reddit.com/r/askscience "Good question, actually most of the whine does not come exactly from the motor, but it comes from all the mechanical parts that connect the rotor to the gearbox and then to the wheels. In the case of racing cars or toy cars theres a lot of noise coming...

    MG5 voltage reading

    It sounds like the 12v battery reading. that is on the left of the righthand gauge and in ready mode should show 14.1v

    MG ZS EV Driver Car door handle sticking!

    WD40 original, dries out, and loses its lubricant quality, use a silicon or PTFE as above it retains the lubricant qualities longer than the plain WD40. WD40 is fine for a quick fix though

    Has MG set themselves up for a customer backlash with how they display range?

    Is this really any different to the 71mpg of the Honda HR-V, which is then quoted as actually 54.2 combined. Which in real terms, the car won't achieve. Or the Renault Clio which claims 91.1MPG but real world figures post it around the 80 mark. This sort of marketing isn't new and with so many...

    Also the Indians use a different range measure ARAI How that stacks up against EVDatabase or the WLTP I don't know.
