test drive

Hello. I've just joined this forum as we (my wife and I) are picking up our brand new MG3 Hybrid+ Trophy today. Hope it's as good as expected! The test drive certainly impressed. :giggle:

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...

I have test driven a IM6 and a IM5 and in both of them the voice assistant seemed very shy. In the IM6 she did not respond for the first half of a 45 min drive and in the IM5 she never responded over 2 20 min drives. A sales person was with me on both drives and neither of us could get a...

The Everything Electric event is coming up in Farnborough in early October: Saturday 11th and Sunday 12th. The best offer code I have seen is 20% off. It is JHTEE20 (From "Just have a think" Dave Borlace) I've heard that people wearing their merch (and Members of Parliament) get to go for...

Had a test drive in an MGS5 EV Trophy Long Range today and it was very interesting to compare with my current MG4 EV Trophy Long Range. The S5 was much improved on the inside with better finish and materials. Central display was larger and much clearer. Seats were more comfortable and suspension...

So had my new mobility MG ZS auto SE and somehow the dealership was keen for me to sign for 3 years without letting me test drive it first. With the over reving on a hill is doing my head in as never had it with my previous Toyota Corolla hybrid..OMG what have I done as got no owners manual...

Hello All, I've had an MG4 since 2022 and will be buying a replacement and returning the existing one to the finance company. When taking a used MG4 for a test drive from a non MG dealer, I'd like to ensure the telematics unit works. If the car is still bound to the previous owner, how can it...

Whilst I had my MG5 in for service and MOT at MG Cinderford on the 17th June, I took their MGS5 out for a test drive. It was only the standard range version but I was very impressed with pretty much everything about it other than its inability to tell the difference between a speed limit sign on...

Hi all I'm thinking of buying the phev hs trophy. I took one for a test drive and liked it a lot. Since doing some reading online about the car I see quite a few people complaining about the car beeping at them and having lots of annoying warning noises. There's also references to speed limit...

I test drove it just now. It drives well. Glides effortlessly. The steering could be a bit more precise. The seating Post at 6'2 is the limit. Thanks to the forums i was able to move the seat further back by holding the button for 10 seconds. Im over noisy cars tbh. This would suit me fine...

Have had my MG5 Exclusive SR for nearly four years and fancied a change after following the new MGS5 reviews in the motoring YouTube channels with close interest. Today, I managed to get a test drive in a dynamic red MGS5 Trophy LR and thought it might be useful to outline my thoughts and...

My new MG ZS trophy hybrid is revving very high on some inclines, is this correct. Thanks.

So - our MG4 Trophy Phase2 is out of PCP in a few months, and at the moment running at an equity loss. Our original plan was to "hand it back" for the FGMV, and then pick up a discounted ER (in Orange! which is the lesser of colour evils for the missus) on a new PCP at 0% for 36 months. However...

Placed a holding deposit on a MG ZS from Marshall Ford in Cambridge. Car looked OK but I wanted to have a test drive before committing more funds to the purchase, which I'm planning to do tomorrow. I had been keen to understand the service history of the car, as apparently it was ex-motability...

Hi, I took the ZS Hybrid for a test drive and it was great… except for an alarm sound that kept going off. It wasn’t the nice gentle speed limit chimes (can these be turned off) it was crazy loud and I was about to pull over and call the dealership when it stopped. No lights on the dash...

Howdy, I've been watching the Cyberster for a while and decided to take the plunge but the lack of dealers with them is starting to become a pain. I went to book a test drive today at the one closest to me (Newbury) who apparently are only offering 30 min test drives, which is no-where near...

I have booked a test drive for next week and I have just had a quick look at the MG3 manual. I notice you can only select Park, Reverse, Neutral or Drive. There is no option of selecting Low Gear as in most automatics. I live in a hilly area and often select Low when going downhill to provide...

As you all probably know i ordered our new MG3 hybrid, I finally had a test drive of it today which was an experience to say the least! The car at first was lovely to drive and smooth which was great I was happy with that! We came up to a roundabout and the car flashed a big red banner for less...

For those who have ordered already, what sort of delivery time-frame have you been given? On the phone I was told August, and that they might be able to get it end of July. But the paperwork says September. ?‍♂️ They're expecting the two dealership cars, one for the showroom and one for test...

This is my own personal opinion only, been there today Thursday 28/03. in previous years have done Silverstone and Farnborough and now London. I found London a little disappointing. Why, I hear you asking?? Well it was much smaller than previous years and for us trying to listen to any of the...
