    ASHP performance

    Hi all, I mentioned in a post that we've had a heat pump installed and I got a DM from a curious member about how it performs in cold weather. Since I looked up the data to write them a response I thought I would share it with the group! The Vaillant Heat Pump app provides us with data. I...

    Cashing in my trophy points?

    I've realised that I've been building up trophy points with all my valuable contributions to the forum here. Very nice. Does anyone know how many I need before I can cash them in for an MGEV of my choice? Do I speak to @Stuart Wright about this or something?

    Problems with non-MG EVs

    This came up on my Facebook feed and it got me thinking we should note that all brands seem to be having problems with quality and consistency lately. The ID4 is one of the biggest selling EVs in the world, and the biggest selling that isn't a Tesla or Chinese.

    New video on the morality of Net Zero

    Hi everyone, I made another video and thought I would share with you lovely people. This one is about Net Zero. At least one brief mention of EVs but they aren't the focus of this one. I asked Pebbles to watch it before I posted it. Her comment was that it was different to my usual ones...

    New panel gap - how much to fix?

    Car was hit while I was at work last night. Luckily, they left a note with a name and number. They don't want to use their insurance if it isn't too expensive but I'm guessing it will be a lot. Any thoughts on how much it will cost? Absolute minimum: new bumper (painted) and a new light...

    A new video from me: Energy bills with solar, battery and EV

    Get the popcorn out everyone. I've made another You Tube video, this time about our energy bills! Preaching to the converted on here, but perhaps another real-world example if you want to share with family, friends or colleagues. I also made a shorter version for those who just want the...

    Whose is this?

    Spotted in the Everything Electric car park this morning. Does this beaut belong to anyone on here? Someone has put a lot of effort in! Don't think I fully captured the white roof and front badge.

    Live review of IM5 at Everything Electric (Farnborough)

    Those curious about the IM5 and going to Farnborough should note the times below. JS will be doing a live review of the IM5 at 12:15 on Saturday and 12:30 on Sunday. I saw RL do a review of the Cyberster last year and managed to ask him a question about it (though he didn't know any more than...

    Battery sizing

    Hi Everyone, Just thinking about battery sizing this morning and wondering if MG got this right earlier than other manufacturers. The new BYD (Atto 2) has got the same battery size options as the MG4 and MGS5: 51kWh and 64kWh. The Dolphin was offered with 45kWh and 61kWh and the Atto 3 with...

    I made a video about EV options

    I thought I might share this with the community. Was visiting my brother-in-law and sister-in-law at the weekend and they mentioned they are looking for an EV that is large enough to visit her parents at Xmas with their kids and all the stuff they take. I was thinking about their options and...

    ⚡️ FLASH OFFER ⚡️ Here's how you get your free entry to Everything Electric Farnborough...

    Had an email from Everything Electric Earlier today. They are offering a deal where if you buy their merch before 10pm today (and email them the receipt) they will give free entry to the event. It is only £8 with the code I shared and free for kids so it is only worth it really if you really...

    IM5 Test drives at Everything Electric?

    Just seen this post on Facebook. Implies that the IM5 will be available for test drive at EE Farnborough. In my experience with this, if they don't allow booking of test drives in advance then what you should do is go straight to the MG centre on arrival and book a slot. They might even let...

    MG4 on TV

    Noticed an MG4 on the BBC show Mandy. I've checked and can confirm it is taxed! No MOT needed as yet. Changed hands in June, so has anyone on here bought a 'famous' car off the Telly?

    Market for the IM5 and comparators

    Interesting that some recent reviews are comparing the IM5 to the Model S and the Taycan, rather than the model 3 which was the original comparison (given the price). If it is really a cut above the Model 3 but for less money then it would be very compelling. The problem is that people who...

    Octopus Free hour tomorrow (Sunday 2pm)

    Octopus social media accounts indicating there will be a free hour tomorrow. Not sure if it is for the whole of the UK or only regional, but their message makes it seem like all customers will qualify. Seen some complaints from Intelligenters who say the free power method doesn't work for...

    Vehicle fires getting out of control

    Should we be talking about banning these ICE vehicles you see about the place? They seem to be prone to fire https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ckgqwq9pxjwo

    EV battery reuse

    Preaching to the converted here, but I thought some of the battery-heads might appreciate this article about re-using EV batteries for stationary storage. Also - is that a photo of a smashed MGS5? If so it can't be very old! But maybe it is virtually the same on the side view as all the other...
