Have done 37k miles in a 69-plate ZS EV 44kWh (2 services, no repairs), and 10k in a 22-plate ZS EV 73kWh since July - no issues.
From the Facebook page (9000+ members) there can be delays in some parts especially after smashes, but nothing more than I'd expect from other makes.
The FRV is getting a bit tatty (155k miles and needed a weld at last MOT) so we thought about a replacement - missus wants to drive electric* but I CBA recharging on a drive to Cambridge or S'hampton so decided to try the PHEV route (we had a BMW 225xe PHEV on lease for a couple of years which was fine but only had 15-20 mile EV range).
HS EV is a slightly bigger and better made version of the ZS. Good for 30-35 miles electric.
Haven't seen any reports of significant faults so pulled the trigger especially as there was almost immediate supply available (even if the wrong colour....)
Price was about a grand cheaper a month ago - www.new-car-discount.com/car/mg-motor-uk/hs-hatchback/hatchback/petrol-plugin-elec-hybrid/automatic/1.5-t-gdi-phev-exclusive-5dr-auto/20/
* - since Tesla dropped their prices closer to £40k the base Model Y seems more tempting with access to superchargers but insurance group 50 is a bit nippy.
