Just taken the plunge and I already need more advice!

WOW! Epic post. (War and Peace)
But very interesting. So the bottom line is,
dispite it's foibles, your loving your.
X Power.

Absolutely!

Amazing summary.

Quick thought I had the issue with the seat belts in the back knocking against the hard plastic. Silly design. As suggested by someone else I got some thin stick on felt and place it where the seat belts sit.

Funny about the netting on the centre console. I though it was a silly pointless thing until I realised it is the perfect place to put my shopping cart coin.

I plugged in all the belts and it's still there so I am confused. I will have to borrow a friend to sit in the back and locate it.

Heh. If you think these self cancelling indicators are bad, try a Tesla. Those things have a mind of their own, they're unbelievably inconsistent.
For me, the thing that I dislike the most on the X Power (apart from half the settings resetting on every start) is the inconsistent braking effort from regen when one-pedal-driving is enabled. Given the same state of charge and temperature, you can never really tell what it's going to do.

I haven't really used the one-pedal mode that much yet but I noticed this the other day. I have mine set on 3 for regen and it seemed to be almost non-existent compared to my last journey. I had wondered if it may be something to do with the battery level as I had fully charged it the day before. I will see if I can work out a trend.

Ah in that case it is not the same issue.

After much deliberating and having received helpful advice from members of this forum I've just bitten the proverbial bullet and ordered a new mg4 se. I've never bought a new car before and I have a few questions about the process etc.
First off, my order "paperwork" states that my car will be a 2022 125kw se (nav) 49kwh. I was surprised the car is a 2022 model. Does that mean it's old stock and does this matter? Why is mine 49kwh when the reviews of read say it is 51kwh? Also, I didn't specify the nav version - not sure if having it is a pro or a con?
Secondly, the dealer has suggested I purchase various "protection" packages for upholstery, paint etc. These seem quite expensive. Are these worth getting in your view?
Despite the appearance I am excited about the prospect of being an mg4 owner - honest!

The dealer's will always try and sell you these additional things so as to boost their revenue and profits. They are expensive but you will have to make your own mind up.

I think the 2022 is a mis-type or misunderstanding ... 2022 is when the MG4 was first released/type approved. If yours is genuinely SE Nav and 49 kWh (and will have a rear wiper) then it's a 2024 model version.

Correct.
