EV Shocker!

Fax? Luxury. In my day it were telex.

You were lucky... we used Morse code

(The joke has gone far enough. No one mentions carrier pigeons, please)

Not a bad looking little sports car at all
It's better than every Tesla model in the design stakes anyway.

I peeked inside a 23 Plate Tesla house brick this morning.
Jeez what a soulless uninspiring place to be sat.
Nothing but a huge i-Pad in front of you.
It may go like stink but that's where it ends for me.

MJ doesn’t joke. He also loves a roof rack so it’s a double no no.

Roof rack? Dont be silly. The tow bar is for the range-extending Diesel generator - it's far too heavy and I'm far too old to lift it onto the roof rack.

As the Chinese seem hell bent on gathering information in any way they can, I saw advice the other day that said if you have a Chinese car you should always park it around the corner from your house so it never knows where you stay!

He he... nice.

Obviously it will have your home address anyway from the SatNav saved destinations, or from your mobile phone that connected over Bluetooth, or from the App you downloaded to manage the car, or from the factory order that the dealer submitted on your behalf.... the list is long.

Joking aside, I never have my home postcode/address labelled ‘Home’ in my satnav - it’d be bad enough having my car nicked, without them knowing which house to burgle…

That happened to me when I ordered takeaway twice by mistake from justeat

Even if you don't save your home address, it only takes two minutes to look at your previous destinations and figure out which one is 'home', it's really not rocket science.

Why can't people just be satisfied with traditional dials?

Irrespective of the power train i think that MG is a nice looking roadster, if i was in the market for an electric roadster ( and the choice ain't great ) that would be one that would get a look in.

The top flight Mazda MX-5 ( Homura or something like that ) is around £34k ..... I prefer the looks and size of the MG to the new shape MX-5 ...
