What do you think is the cheapest feeling part of MG4

[MG Clive]

Nothing feels cheap to me to be honest. I'm very happy with it.

I agree with this, my Xpower feels really good quality all round, in every area it's better than the 2020 Polo it replaced, and I expect to keep it for several years.

So just as an example of the MG4 not feeling cheap, today I discovered that the rear door pull handles have got a little rubber mat at the bottom to hide the screw. This is an item that very few people will ever see or give any thought to, but MG obviously decided that the screw shouldn't be seen, now that's not an example of cheap, or penny pinching, I think it's the right thing to do, and it's proper quality.

Yes that'll be it, luckily I don't have kids, dogs, or money.

I was trying to work out if you haven't got kids or dogs, why haven't you got any money. Then I realised....wife

The radio is terrible. Really really bad. So much so I’d say it essentially doesn’t work on FM. Of course there is no AM but ignoring that the tuner is useless. I listen to weaker LPFM stations and even though I have them as favourites, the radio won’t present them if it thinks they’re too weak to listen to. Never mind if I want to listen to them, the radio has decided and you can’t select them.

Of course I can manually tune them in every time I want to listen. How useless is that? And have you tried tuning while driving with the stupid dial scale paradigm?

Remember simple push button tuning radios from the 60s and 70s? Well this box of tech is way worse than that. It a radio designed by software programmers who have never used a real radio.

The auto tuning RDS AF mode doesn’t work properly either.

I’m going to break out the jigsaw and cut a hole on the dash to fit an aftermarket Sony. I’m that sick of it.

Did I mention the radio is useless?

Funny how different folk have totally different opinions. (which is good).
I find my Radio is fine. And in my opinion sounds great.
