 MG - MG5 EV - smokie
Thanks, I think I am sold on the car but the difficulty is going to be getting rid of the old one. I've enjoyed being part of a fairly excusive "club" of only c 1200 UK owners and tbh the car covers all the local pottering around electrically anyway. It's a bit of a looker and I'm finding it hard to imagine life without it (well, that's overdramatising it somewhat but you know what I mean!)

The Good Thing is that it seems to have held it's value quite well. WBAC offered £8500 but based on cars which have sold through Autotrader recently I think it should comfortably achieve £10k and possibly £11k even on a private sale. Not bad as I paid about £13k for it three years ago. it is relatively low mileage (55k on a 15 plate) and still has about a year of battery warranty, which many don't. though there is evidence of batteries lasting well into the 100ks without degradation. It also has full Vx service history.

Having watched those reviews I feel the MG may also keep it's value reasonably as it is allegedly the first proper estate EV, which would be an important factor for many future purchasers. But tbh with it's 7 year warranty I don't think I'll be in any rush to move it on.
