Remember to move it once you’ve washed it to avoid brake corrosion.

Its just for his wife to ferry the kids around local. Who cares about the UI. Steering wheel and pedals should be sufficient.
We’ll you say that - heating, radio and all that basic stuff is touchscreen.

No
Are they?
Yep, I gather the whole user interface and control system is designed by a blind gibbon who drank 3 litres of cider.

I know some looking who could be interested. How much does he want for it?
He does know they are dreadful right?

Cheapening the MG brand, I don’t even think Gerald Ratner could do that 😂

Just leave it until April…

Mine had a tiny little bit as they are not sealed, but just the size of a box of matches. Even with LEDs, it would burn it off.

Maybe I'll buy a MINI then they're really cool
No I think you have to have realistic expectations, perhaps look at a Smart car.

I came into a bit of money recently (redundancy) which it just so happened coincided with the launch of the MG4 X-Power so I called into my local MG dealer late July and explained that I would be in a position to buy a car immediately. Dealer seemed quite keen and mentioned they have a MG4 Extended Range coming in in the first week of August IIRC. I said I would love to test drive it and if it was as quick as it looked on paper that would be the car for me and if not then the X-Power would be.
As I mentioned that was the first week in August, haven't heard a tap since but did notice the same dealer (different branch) had a brand new MG4 in white, which is my preferred colour, they are obviously still getting enough to do them and have more customers than cars it seems as the white one has dropped off Auto-Trader.
Dealers, you couldn't love the kents, even if you reared them
You dodged a bullet there, you wouldn’t want to be seen dead in a POS like that.

Boy, he must like that car. He obviously doesn't want to sell it.
Probably just to stop all the time wasters and shyate kickers he was getting 😅

What’s a ferrule?

Had a Gen1 turbo for 3 years, great car if a little tight on the inside.
Handled superbly. Loved it.
just needed more space.

There is/was a dodgy cream / burgundy one near me, with matching cream wheels. Distinctive to say the least.

I’ve had PPF on all my headlights over the last 8 years or so without problem - all have been LED though so don’t get hot.

My turbo was good, faultless. 2016 car so had the older style dash which was button central - tech may seem very old compared to a BMW even of the same age.
I heard the 2.0 was pretty gutless. Point of note there is not much interior space.

How on earth do you do this? In a sink or bath? Very interested in the pics and good luck.

I have put BMCs into my last few performance cars - C63, M3, GP3.
They are beautifully made pieces of kit, but I’ll be honest made absolutely no difference to induction noise or performance. But it’s a kind of feel good factor, even if it is a placebo.

Thanks, that is really useful.

Have a few questions about legal procedures - I think a dealer has pulled a fast one.

Get that battery nice and conditioned, if you’re really fussed get it up on a ramp to have a poke about.
and buy a roll tag!

Rubber mallet from the inside, but for goodness sake get something to protect it or another person to support it while you whack it.
