    Just seen the new VW ID7 Estate, is it just me...

    ...or have they been copying?! Just look at that body line under the windows and the frontal styling. And as for the interior...

    Free, blank thingy that goes under the rear plate. :)

    I've got my new car, woohoo! So I've got the plastic hole cover trim available that sits under a standard UK plate, free to whoever might want it including the screws, in case yours is damaged or missing. You'll just need to pay for your choice of postage, fast or slow. PM me if you want...

    And so it begins... (discounts, depreciation)

    Our lovely friends discounting and depreciation are coming to visit already! :p https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202409063724914 I'm looking forward to what they get down to by end of next year, but almost 5% off new at this stage is a good sign of bargains to come!

    Silly question, Does the facelift come with a Jack?

    Hi all, Silly question and I know I should have checked when I was in buying it, but does the facelift car come with a jack and wheel brace as well as the tyre repair kit, or not? Just need to know whether I ned to buy a full spare wheel kit, or just a wheel. Thanks.

    Where to get ismart lite?

    Hi all, I notice the android app store only has ismart listed, no sign of ismart lite for the MG5, so where do we get it from?

    Kia vehicle to load adapter

    Does anyone know if the Kia adapter will work with the MG5, by any chance? It has a really nice design, looks much nicer than the Screwfix twin socket on a charging lead effort that MG are selling!

    How's speedo accuracy?

    Hi all, just musing whilst I wait for my car to arrive. How's the speedometer for accuracy on the MG5? Our current LEAF always over reads by 10% by design!

    Just joined the clan... ;)

    Well it looks like I'm about to become an MG5 owner! My attention got caught by the current large discounts on offer so I went along and had a haggle with our local dealership, the end result being I bought a new Trophy in Cosmic silver for £21k. Should be with me in around 2 weeks. I look...

    Would anyone be interested in a wheel swap?

    I'm thinking about getting a new MG5 Trophy, but don't like the wheels. Would anyone with a nearly new SE with unmarked wheels be interested in a free Trophy wheel upgrade by swapping wheels with myself if I get one? You would need to be within a reasonable driving distance of DN37, and I'd...

    Maybe the Cyberster isn't so expensive after all... here's it's only current "competition"!

    When compared with the only current "competition" the Cyberster has, £60k is cheap. I give you the GranCabrio EV... It starts at, wait for it... £185,610! For that it does outperform the cyberster a little: Downsides are, it's not a proper ground up EV, but an ICE chassis conversion...

    Cyberster pre order, anyone done it yet?

    Just wondering if anyone else has pre-ordered one yet? On the basis of you only live once and all that, I've just placed a pre order with Luscombe in Leeds. :)

    Good bye everyone. :)

    The current crazy used car market and a change in our situation meaning we don't need to have 2 cars has tempted me to sell my ZS, as I have a cunning plan I need some money for, lol! Cazoo are the culprits, offering me a ludicrous £20,350, only £1,650 less than I bought it for 18 months &...

    More car maths and battery capacity not what it should be....

    Following on from my post where I suggested the car was not good at maths, I've been paying attention to range and figures. Now the weather is warmer and range is back up, I'm suspecting the last BMS update might have restricted battery capacity available for use more than expected. My useage...

    Is your cars maths correct? Mine never is!

    So what's wrong with this picture? Well, assuming a conservatively useable 41kWh from the battery, 4.5m/kWh should give me a total of 184.5 miles, but I'm on track for 175.1! I've noticed it's always short. This is in economy too, with no ventilation on so it is the maximum possible range...

    25/01/21: Just had latest BMS software. Observations...

    So I had the first service done today. The garage also applied the latest BMS update along with the HV fuse protection update. My car hasn't had any previous BMS updates after the comfort 2 earlier this year, so this may, or may not, be relevant. Anyway, unlike the previous BMS updates...
