I've got the same car, 2.5 years old more or less. I've got the same problem with the passenger wing mirror, but it's now not folding 80% of the time. Not a problem, except sometimes I get back to the car and think I've left it unlocked. Mine came with a 7kw charger. Which is what I use 99% of the time. One little aside, I did a 200 mile trip to London, on the way down I did 70-75 and Needed 3 charges, which made a journey time of 5 1/2 hours. On the way back I did 50, mostly behind trucks. Needed one change. Journey took 5 hours. So weirdly, going 50mph is faster than doing 70. (velocity squared for wind resistance, means 50 uses almost 50% less energy than 70)
There seems to be an internal mechanism that becomes "unhooked". Manually fold the mirror inwards - you need to lift it then twist it. Then, using the mirror control switch, press down to electrically fold the mirror in. You'll hear the motor run followed by a loud clunk. That's the unhooked parts re-engaging. Unfold them again using the switch and they should be fine again. Hope that helps.
@@twincarbs8637 I've manually folded it worked the first few times. I'll give the button a go. But as problems go, it's not a concern, certainly not compared to blown turbo on my last car.
Greetings from Glasgow, thanks for the review been looking to get this exact car for a year now and keep talking myself out it, think I will take the plunge and switch from petrol, take care. Paul
Nice video, thinking of picking one up as a second car in the family, how has the range been? Same as when it was new? Here in sweden you can pic one up, second hand of course for about £15.000, with about 18.000 miles on the odometer. Would you recomend one, or should i look for somthing else?
Thank you for your comments. The MG was certainly the most reliable cars I've ever had. I didn't see any degradation in range or battery health in the three years I had it. The market for EV's must be stronger in Sweden than UK. I spotted my one for sale last week at an MG dealer for £13,500. 27000 miles. Bargain! Hope you find one soon 👍

Love your 50 is faster than 70 theory 👍

Thanks Paul, go get one. You just missed a bargain with this. Picking up my new EV tomorrow. Let me know how you get on 👍
