From what I've read on here there no sparesBut how else to make money from spares?!..

I was of the opinion that the new face lift ZS EV would come in two spec's and two different battery size versions.You are right. In my enthusiasm I mixed up top spec with top range.![]()
Good view/run through of the infotainment. States this is a Luxury model at 32k euros .(£27k ish)
You are funny…your trying again for another reaction aren’t you…I can't make out if those are actually alloy wheels or some sort of wheel covers, which I wouldn't expect on the top of the range model.
No, honestly, I've stared at those wheels far too many times now and still can't figure out what they are.You are funny…your trying again for another reaction aren’t you…
Oh, you're right. They do look like covers rather than alloys. How strange.I can't make out if those are actually alloy wheels or some sort of wheel covers, which I wouldn't expect on the top of the range model.
Just to play devils advocate, what car would people go for if the price goes over £35,000, there’s plenty to choose from. ?I totally agree !.
I have said almost the very same thing in another thread.
If the new Gen 2 / Face lift top spec 71 Kw option nudges even CLOSE to the £35,000 ceiling mark, which is the limit to receive the government grant.
Then when MG increases their prices in Jan of next year, as they have already stated.
This could effectively make the car £2,500 more expensive straight from the “Get Go”.
Therefore MG have to be careful when pricing the model with the larger pack and in the top trim level.
Otherwise, it has pushed the price into a sector where there is more choice of EV’s on offer.
The Gen1 ZS EV sold SO well because the pricing structure & incentives where extremely hard to match by other makers.
MG understands where their market strength / customer base is situated.
They must retain this place in the market to stay successful.
I'm gonna say they're alloys. You can just make out the disc hub, caliper and the valve that sits in the wheel. It also looks as though there is a complex, star shaped hub cover (MG logo as the centre) concealing the wheel bolts.I can't make out if those are actually alloy wheels or some sort of wheel covers, which I wouldn't expect on the top of the range model.
The end result is very attractive in any event.I'm gonna say they're alloys. You can just make out the disc hub, caliper and the valve that sits in the wheel. It also looks as though there is a complex, star shaped hub cover (MG logo as the centre) concealing the wheel bolts.
It'll be back to the Enyaq for me... And some more time to save for the initial deposit to keep the monthly PCP payments down.Just to play devils advocate, what car would people go for if the price goes over £35,000, there’s plenty to choose from. ?
I have taken another look at a few videos, I am unable to tell if they are covers or alloys ?.The end result is very attractive in any event.
I spent a bit of time on the Enyaq 'build your car' thing this afternoon just trying to get a spec that compared with the facelift ZS and got so depressed that I did indeed consider just keeping my Outlander.It'll be back to the Enyaq for me... And some more time to save for the initial deposit to keep the monthly PCP payments down.
Similar will apply if they price it under £35k but decide to remove the 0% or the PicG changes to much!
Yeah - I agree.The Enyaq is a rather bigger car than the ZS so it's not a very good comparison.....but....
I wonder what the alloys look like without the covers on ?I'm gonna say they're alloys. You can just make out the disc hub, caliper and the valve that sits in the wheel. It also looks as though there is a complex, star shaped hub cover (MG logo as the centre) concealing the wheel bolts.
Did you extend the telescopic steering wheel adjustment out on the 5 ?My fiancé and I are both 6'3" and so need something like a small SUV or larger to be comfortable. I've tried the MG5 for example and just couldn't get my knees anywhere that felt comfortable.
The Enyaq is indeed much bigger, but I don't know anything else in the sub 35k bracket that would be big enough.
I'd welcome suggestions.
Ironically, I was originally looking at an Enyaq and that's how I found MG5 and then the ZS!
Looked at the video again this morning on my larger pc monitor and don't know how I've previously missed the screen caption "17 alloy rim with hubcap" and you can see, particularly in the shot of the rear wheel what looks like an alloy wheel underneath.I wonder what the alloys look like without the covers on ?
