    Door mirrors fail to fold when car locked

    Yes, this is a common problem. My 2020 model ZS has been doing it on and off since 6 months old. Doesn't worry me as I don't need need fold in mirrors here but shouldn't be happening.

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

    Both great looking cars! Unfortunately none ever make it to Australia. Apparently we don't want station wagons (Estates) only dual cab Utes and SUVs. Or so the car companies tell us. I pleaded with MG Australia for the MG5 Wagon but was laughed at :)

    Thinking of buying a MG ZS EV 2020/2021

    Congrats on going EV. As per the comments ZS mk1 is a great budget EV. We've had one since Nov 2020 in Aust and covered lots of ownership experience in video's over the 50,000 Kms traveled, including a 2,000 km road trip. Visit my EV channel and search for all the ZSEV videos. I recently done a...

    350 miles a week mainly motorway. Is EV a good idea?

    Do it! Just need to schedule/plan charging. You will wonder why it took so long to change. ?

    Replace interior light bulbs?

    Yes, and I installed puddle lights in the footwells and rear seat lights. The MG's have shameful interior lighting. I thought I did a YT video on it but looking on my channel I can't find it amongst the over 100 videos ? so will have to look into what happened to it. Here's one where I talk...

    100% Balancing Charge - Frequency and Method

    Just FYI - you will never get full 7 kW as there are always efficiency losses. Same goes for all other quoted charge figured. Congrats on the EV ?

    How many chargers at your work place?

    None! The owners of the carpark in our multi story office tower asked tenants to take on an insane amount of liability so none got installed. Think they have been listening to much FUD ?

    Basic (standard) or long range

    Hi Baldy, don't over think it! Just buy the range which suits 80-90% of your driving needs. No use carrying, and paying for, a larger heavier battery you only need 10% of the time. Keep in mind more chargers are going in all the time, again making larger batteries less needed. As for different...

    what's the lowest % battery you've gone to on a trip ?

    Down to zero with the SOC indicator blinking then disappearing. Done specifically for a range test video for my EV YT Channel but was nerve racking ????

    Byd Atto 3

    The Australian launch was a bit wobbly. The local distributer tripped over themselves with regards to warranty and service schedules but everyone appears happy with the cars. I have a couple interviews with owners on my channel - PS: I'm a Gen 1 ZS EV owner :)

    Lol, MG don't waste any money of making things neat or covering them up. ???. I put some courtesy lights in the foot wells (video coming on that) and amazing what I found under there. ?

    MG4 or Tesla Model 3

    Wow that's a good deal for Tesla M3. Here in Aust MG4 pricing just announced, around A$48k, and dealers have started taking orders. 2nd hand STANDARD range+ M3 are still around A$55k here so personally I would be going for M3 LR in your neck of the woods if it suits your needs. Plus the...
