Great review. I was originally planning on getting a VW ID3 but I've been slightly put off due to the teething software issues they currently seem to have. This seems like a fantastic cheaper alternative and I'm yet to hear anyone talk about software bugs with it.

Useful review, especially re rear seat folding and boguscroof bars.

Hi. I downloaded the manual. Seems that the roof bars are for decoration only. Headlights are halogen HB3 60w. UK regulation says max 55W. However I purchased the car and I hope I'm going to get it in few weeks.

I really like this new dedicated review with a brew. quick and snappy all I need to watch it is an earl grey. nice car the MG5 I really enjoyed the road trip.

You forgot the key feature. Space for a full sized spare wheel!
Not many cars have that and as far as I know no other full BEV's have that feature. For those of us planning on using this vehicle as a Taxi.. important info.

Loved the review and your trip to round the Lake District. My dad is considering picking this car up!

I've just got one of these today preregistered one brand new with 0 miles (72 plate) UK I got it for 21 thousand excite long range in white. I decided to buy it as it was 10 thousand pounds cheaper than the facelift model. And looks don't rele bother me has any one got this car an tell me what it's like to live with. I've had a previous petrol zs with no issues at all I hope this is the same but all the reviews seem positive online thanks.
