    Decision time - keep or replace?

    I'm coming to the end of my 3yr PCP, car is being valued at £12k but the settlement figure is £16.9k, so definitely going to walk away from it. I'm considering the MGS5 but best lease offer on 3yrs at 10k per year is £450, and I can get a BMW iX1 for less than that, or a Renault 5 e-tech...

    Android (non auto)???????

    FWIW I've had my car over 2 years now and it's been fine, but last week, for some reason, it just stopped connecting to my phone and now nothing we do will reinstate it. Nothing has changed - MG system has not been updated, nor my phone.

    Great outing for MG at Goodwood festival of speed - but one complaint

    Very annoying that the Eurosport commentators mis-identifed 2 models - repeatedly mis identifying the MG Cyber GTS, even with 'Cyber GTS' written all over the bodywork (kept saying it was the MG4 XPower) and calling the MG5 the MG3 despite, again, it saying MG5 on the number plate! But the Cyber...

    MG4 Depreciation

    This just doesn't apply if you're on a PCP deal. Of course I've bought cars before, the condescension isn't helpful. The point is not that they depreciate, but the degree to which it has depreciated in the timeframe, something that is not normal by any stretch and in fact has been explained...

    Poor radio sound

    I mean there are no speakers in the rear of the car, so cheap!

    MG4 Depreciation

    that's right. I wasn't singling MG out as particularly bad or anything, which your response appears to suggest, just that it's not a great situation OK thanks, again, nothing to suggest that it isn't enormous deprecation, as I was asking, just that it's 'normal' and 'to be expected' which, I...

    MG4 Depreciation

    I bought my MG4 LR 18 months ago for £28.5k with £7k down, so £21.5k credit to pay + about £3.8k interest over 36 months (7%), £15k guaranteed at the end. Asked for a settlement fee the other day, 18 months in, and that was £19.5k. Can't find an offer over £20k anywhere for the car, so...

    Pre heating

    I thought it would ONLY pre-heat if the car was plugged in and actively charging? When did that change?

    Unable to select a drive 'gear'

    hmmm, thank you, I'm booking it into a diagnostics check anyway

    Unable to select a drive 'gear'

    showing 12.1V Didn't get that far. My point was, the drive selector wasn't even illuminated so wasn't even in Park, or showing it was in park. It just wasn't functioning at all. I've been driving it for 18 months, I know how it works.

    Unable to select a drive 'gear'

    Got into the car this morning, quite nippy at about -2C, and for 10 minutes could not for the life of me select a 'gear' - drive, reverse, etc. Drive select button rim would not illuminate, LCD was showing 'ready', everything else as normal. Spent that 10 minutes turning power totally off via...

    Already broken

    Mine has just broken, been just over a year. I've been to several advanced driving courses and you are supposed to put a lot of force through it, you're supposed to use it to brace your whole body, it's not just a 'rest', so it needs to be able to stand up to force.

    Keyless start? Anyone got it working?

    Mine worked fine, on an SE Long Range, so long as the Bluetooth is connected. Pointless though (IMO), as others have said here.

    MG iSmart 2.0 features & usage thread [no moaning in here please!]

    I know there's now a (merged) thread on the update to the MG phone software app but it's almost entirely issues and problems with the app, rather than any information on what new features the update has brought, or how to use them. Can we keep this thread as that, perhaps? For instance on the...

    First service - experience of charges out there

    Getting increasingly annoyed with MG Nottingham reading this thread - just had my first service and they charged me £162, and wanted to replace both rear tyres at 50% tread, so gave me a really hard sell.

    How to maximise the GPS screen?

    Well, shit, thank you so much @NickHeynes and @siteguru, that worked. I'm eternally grateful to you both! Now if they'd only update the app so we can remotely heat the car when it's frozen outside, my life would be complete. ;-)

    How to maximise the GPS screen?

    MG4 X-Power Orders & Delivery

    Has anyone (in the UK) upgraded to an MG4 X-Power from an MG4 while half-way through a PCP deal? Just wondering how that might work. FYI I've asked my dealer and still waiting on them to call me back.
