#25: MG ZS EV: 60,000 Mile Update! | KC Talks EV 

Hello! Thank you for stopping by! FYI if you are looking at a new MG EV, take a look at my ZS EV playlist! Playlist: ru-vid.com/group/PListUDmGMNR5ni8DOfehtoXDkM86uhIA6

Hey! So we both have OG Reds from the first batches. Ours ticked over 40k miles recently and had its larger biennenial service. That cost about £220 so very reasonable considering. The garage managed to fix the common rear wash issue where the pipe, also hard to reach, becomes disconnected. They said they'd be able to fix the now dead breathing lamp. The flap latch itself is still operable on mine but doesn't feel quite solid. The o/s wing mirror doesn't retract in the cold, another common and I've read it may be an inherited issue via the Yeti and VAG parts bin. Lower two bars on the rear windscreen heater have gone, that may have been the dog or getting it tinted. Tyres are all original. Fronts will need replacing so on. Rears have plenty, so will need replacement from age-related cracking rather than wear. What tyres to get next? EGP2? Haven't checked the rust! Paint work isn't pretty good still though there's a small flake that's come away on a wing,so touch up paint ready to be applied. May get a single stage and coating done, perhaps Lano underneath? SOH is 88.71% via OVMS. I rapid a couple or three times per year. Can't help but think that the algorithm is age and mileage related only. Seats and drive selector are OK. It's made a great school run car, which is up to 50 miles per day 😮

Thanks for the update. Great to see these other videos. Really helpful for those of us considering buying used.

Very interesting stats. Thanks as always!

Good video as always, nice the Yorkshire EV Club badge was prominent ❤

Normal wear and tear! I like to use seat covers, which are washable, and will protect your seats. Good plug for Levis though! 😎The loose charging flap is disappointing although, as long as it doesn't rattle as you drive, it can be tolerated.

Good to hear I have been looking to get same make / model as you have seen a few with between 16k - 20k miles wasn’t sure if this was high in EV world or not, this video is reassuring.

My 2020 has just passed 46000miles at 3.5 years and 94.3% battery health (EZS APP). Just before Christmas it started to fail latching the charge flap like yours. Have you had yours checked out yet? I presume its the latch lock thats slightly pushed off on the other side of the base. But i cant see how to get to it.

Are you not considering at least asking the question about Warranty Repairs?

They are still LithiumDeathhTTraps !!!!
