    Instavolt Chargers failed to connect

    Had a problem connecting to Instavolt charger at Sostice Park yesterday. Tried three times, and it accepted my card and connected, but timed out each time and would not charge.

    Excite/Exclusive/Trophy Confusion

    Maybe someone could just confirm this for me as I see a lot of you talking about "Trophy" and pre/post Face-lift versions of the car. I'm based in Ireland and the MG5 is being sold as the "Excite" and "Exclusive" versions. Are these identical to the SE and Trophy Long Range versions being sold...

    Leaving the trickle charger outdoors overnight/in bad weather.

    Recently got an MG5 and for a variety of reasons (cost, old house wiring needing upgrade) we're going to hold off investing in a 7kW external charger. Instead we've gotten an electrician to install a regular weather-sealed 13A socket outside that we can plug the trickle charger into so we...

    MG5 Trophy Breakdown – A Worrying Experience

    Hi all, Long-time reader here! I’ve been driving an MG5 Trophy as a company car for just over 18 months now. Overall, I’ve really enjoyed it – it’s comfortable, drives well, and has been totally reliable… until a few weeks ago when it completely died on me. Buckle up – it’s a bit of a story...

    Life after the MG5

    So, I got the MG5 on lease through work but opted for a shorter lease term on the basis that in a couple years new cars will be coming online that are a significant improvement over the MG5 and, importantly, will cost the same if not less. Next year my car is due to be returned and I am really...

    Horn beeped when locking

    I'm aware the horn will beep when attempting to lock if a door is open, but tonight it honked, made a locking noise and folded the wing mirrors (PFL LR Exclusive) On checking a rear passenger door wasn't fully shut. Does this mean I can't use the folded mirrors as a sign the car is actually...

    MG5 Confused over update versions

    Picked up my new facelift MG5 Trophy today. Fantastic price for a car that has been sitting in a field since 2022 (I guess). Thanks for the pickup checklists that some of you posted, they came in really handy as: 1) the rear numberplate will be re-done by the dealer 2) front door water exits...

    LED interior lights

    I thought this would be an easy task, take one out and pop the LED in. How wrong was I... The plastics are so tightly held and the fear of breaking something! The rear lights were simple. I took the grab handles down and carfully popped the covers off. The front was a whole nother level. I...

    Spilled coffee over the central console MG5LR

    What a mess, cup of coffee slipped form my hand and spilled over the central console. There was no sugar, a small mercy, but the residue has impacted the kers switch and the sport/normal/eco switch. It seems sometimes they work and sometimes they don’t. Everything else seems ok. I’ve tried to...

    Butt pain mg5 trophy

    Had the mg5 for about 2 months and find the leather seat rather hard and difficult to get comfortable in. My left butt gets a dull pain from driving for >30 mins. Does anyone else experience the same problem?

    A couple more newbie questions

    Had my new MG5 SE for a week now, taking it easy on local roads, only done about 100 miles so far. Generally happy, but very disappointed with the speed limit indicator. In various hire cars I have used over the past 2-3 years, these have been reasonably accurate, presumably using mapped data to...
