MG 4/Mulan after crash. Drive with deployed airbags. Crash reset. Cable and Software.

[chiMol]

And updated with permanent reg and insurance. ALL done.

I ordered new used radar from Norway and am waiting for it.

Next update will be to lift the car. Clearance is very much not enough for Bulgarian almost roads... I think to make new theme.

Some more
I do two things - tire size increase and rear springs add-ons.

Tires 205 65 16 fits perfectly. There are no electronic tire valve for tmps in these rims...
I put orange rim protector and it looks perfect 3-4$ from AliExpress..
Tires swap give me 2cm in increase of clearance.

After spring add-ons I get 2 cm more ...

Overall stock is 14 cm
With biggest tires 16
With tires and add-ons 18
It can be increased to 22-23 without problems with bigger rubber under spring pads.

My oldest and my newest car on road again. 1959vs2022

Both pass the technical inspection in last week.

What a fantastic thread, I've just come across it and read from start to finish.
I think you should come to Australia, we could use you over here.

 

[chiMol]

Australia . Really I think to visit this land of kangaroos, alligators and nature. Soon I will be over 40 I think that I lose my time for global switch but I can be there with my posts .

Now I am charging my orange car and me in my cave.

The estimate range is amazing. I think it is because of city driving. After day I will test it on highway... If all is ok....

I am not sure how impressed I am ....17+ kWh/100km

It will be critical in winters with heating ....

Well done mate for getting so far, my old hobby was fixing up cars (via in the UK copart), I gave up around 5 years ago, as soon as they came out with ADAS / component protection.

Thanks for the drive round Bulgaria. I see you hit some fairly high speeds overtaking trucks and stuff. That probably uses a lot of juice, you'll probably do a lot better if you keep it under 110, but that could mean getting stuck in the slow lane I guess.
Our MG4 gets 15kWh/100k at 110 that would give you a bit more of a margin

 

[Rolfe]

Who cares? Electricity is a lot cheaper than petrol. Drive it like you stole it!

 

[chiMol]

Now i realize that my 110 are 114 with gps and about 120 with standard tire size.. and difference in Google maps milage and car milage is is 23 km. Sunday i will test it again. I plan to test the same route with different cars and fuels and get differences in cost. I plan to test it and with the oldest ( grand mosk)

I don't know how are the prices in uk but here if you charge on public stations is more expensive than you pay for lpg fuel.

Lpg price about 1.4v/liter or 0.7 euro / liter with fuel consum about 10liters 100 = 7euro/100km
Electr 0.8 lv/kw or 0.4 euro/ kw electr consum 17kw/100 = 6.8 euro/100 km

 

[Rolfe]

If you have to do all your charging on public chargers it's going to get expensive, yes.

Dig is here. Now i am waiting for soft remote install.... This china scheme is quite strange ,but i can try it.

 

[chiMol]

Software success 0%

Recommendation never buy soft from china ... hardware may be is ok ....but without soft is unusable ....

 

[Rolfe]

Oh dear...

 

[Tuareg]

My PV system is 100% Chinese, all the software including the inverter monitoring works as advertised.

 

[chiMol]
