Absolutely brilliant car!!

My bloody goto from now on ??

Saw FUBAR in another thread. That seems OK? Nice one.?

Well DaevM , I really don't know what's got into you, is there a shelf life on the Radon barriers under your home? Are they deteriorating, its the most likely cause of your descent from the Kings English.
Unless of course you are somehow related to the late Prince Philip.
Now there's a thought ? what effect does Radon have on Lithium Iron and NCM battery life? Should we all move to Cornwall or should you get the hell out of Dodge City?

Apparently the word is early C16th Germanic origin, so more related to t'King than you may think ?
Good point about the radon though.
Our last house ( granite built) had radon content (10 years resident) but we opened the windows ( cellar room) so we were ok officially. This one is built on sand, not granite, so not an issue ?

Isn't that what you put into a bath to help you relax?

That's where they went wrong ??... and why showers have become so popular.
A relaxing bath and a bowl of Ready Brek sets you up for the day ??

What word? Knackered? Seriously?
Have I missed the joke?

What a fuss about nothing.

In future you should post after the watershed

Theres some Olympic size swimming pools full of the stuff at Sellafield if you fancy a dip, might be on your own though.

Let's get back to how great @DaevM's car is before I have to start deleting stuff.

There, I've said it. 'tis a brilliant car 'n' I loves it ??.

Having just completed my 2nd 500+ mile round trip, this one in a little over 24 hours with a fair bit of business including a guerrilla funeral and wake (not the animal!!) , I gotta say, despite having to deal with ridiculously heavy rain and Bank Holiday/half term traffic, it was absolutely faultless (touch huge wood!!) and a pleasure to drive. Got home ache free and not knack'd, having had lots of fun.
A couple of Tesla charges either way, again what a revelation after 5 years 50kW CHAdeMo'ing it!!

Anyone considering one, go for it. I may just be extraordinarily lucky, but in my view, an absolutely brilliant car ??.

Disclaimer: only had it 3 months and about 1500 miles, but all good so far and haven't had to deal with MG directly.

At the risk of getting back to your original post ( ) really glad to hear of your experience. We're also rather fond of our car, with good reason.
We have a 700 mile trip coming up starting tomorrow, back home for a week, then a 500 mile round trip, back home for a week and then an 800mile+ trip.
Also interested to hear about your Tesla charging experience. I've had the app downloaded for a while but haven't yet set it up. I really should as there is a station in Inverness, which is otherwise not well served for chargers. In just over a year, we've also never used >50kW chargers, so that will be a new experience too.

Re. the Tesla app ... just create an account and add a payment card, then job's a good'un. You'll just need to select the charger in the app and start a charge.

Ta. So not unlike the way podpoint works, then.

....and if it appears on the map you can use it ??.
Match made in heaven - have a test run beforehand. Always reassuring

Good to know. The test run isn't quite so straight forward for us - the nearest is 100 miles away!

Ah, it'll be fine ??

And brace yourself for an impressive charging speed. I had a 50kw max charge rate for 4 years with my last car, so always had to think about something ( or nothing) to do whilst charging. MG4/Tesla if I go to do something have to keep an eye in the app so I don't incur an idle charge. You have to move it once charged or else!!. It's pleasantly fast though ( and cheap ) ??
