Great job! We have ordered a Volcano Orange Trophy (managed to get one with the black roof/wing mirrors too!) ourselves and I already have the black emblem sat here after watching your video a couple days ago. I'd love to do the wheels too but that's just not a possibility at this time. I can't wait for delivery in September, the test drive was really impressive, it was beyond my expectations in build quality and how it drove.
Great transformation, I do have the black MG logo for the front of our car but I didn’t fit it because I couldn’t replace the rear logo but after seeing your car I am going to fit it. I am also going to order the mudflaps and the front bumper fins..your car looks great. Well done.
Will get half mileage now ! 120 miles per charge! I've had the same idea with my late mg5 !😢Will get half mileage now ! 120 miles per charge! I've had the same idea with my late mg5 !😢
Looks superb following the work you put in. I like the last parts for the front bumper, really changes the look. Do you have links for all the parts you used please?
Looks nice! I was thinking about to get 19' wheels, but I'm concerned if this affects the comfort. What is your experience with the wheel is the comfort the same or had it changed?
Thanks! It makes the car much more sportier in driving and also the cornering is more aggressive with more grip! I love it but you do have to be careful in the put holes!!
great job! very stylish result! but why you didnt fix legs of car-lift opposite special places for that (small triangle dot on side plastic) ? incorrect place for load applied can make effect on battery frame. what do you think? I am about change my tires on my car for winter and very concern to put car lift in right place. can you show from below were it this place? it could be a subject for separate video. anyway, thanks for your job!
Hi, thank you. I think that if you lift the car from the side where I have placed the lift on the video you will not have a problem. When you look under the car you can see the lower spot on the metal side skirt. This is the strongest place that you can lift your car . I would worry if I you lift the car from the battery. When you lift a car there is some forces that change on the body. Especially if you use a jack only in the front or in the back.This is same when you drive of a sidewalk and you can listen the car “stretching “. But if you place the jack or the lift at the correct place you will not have a problem either way.
Looks so much better. How much has changing the wheel size affected the range of the car? Or is there a way of adjusting the range for the bigger wheels?
The overall diameter is little bit smaller so they are not actually bigger but they are wider and heavier. You can not adjust the range for the bigger wheels you have to live with the loss. But from what I have seen on this car is around 30 km from a full charge. Soon I will make a video with two exactly same cars with the wheels being the only difference so we can see.🙂
@@magoulasfabrications7766 sounds great - I'll keep an eye out for that! I am possibly interested in buying one of these cars but like you, thought the wheels needed improvement!
@@magoulasfabrications7766 Would be a good thing to see a 2nd motor added up front from another MG and a kit developed to do the conversion... and maybe replace the rear motor with a Tesla one... ??
Hi It costs more energy but not that much. Looks better in my opinion and drives better. Makes the ride more sporty and less comfy. But in Norway we have a second set of wheels for the winter that is smaller and with spikes. So I try to enjoy at the summer.😃
Hi Yes probably you are right. Paint also protect from the rust and a lot of aftermarket callipers is coming painted from the factory. I do not worry so much as the car is not meant for track use.
@@magoulasfabrications7766 actually, your car looks great. I always fit good tyres, eg Michelin Pilot Sport 5, 2 wks ago, and top quality pads. A bit of paint wont much much difference really. I paused your video several times to try and see what type of tyres you fitted.
Hi No I have not done this because the overall diameter is almost one centimetre less than the factory wheel. That makes the car lower but the gap between the wheel and the arch is bigger. So I do believe that a 3 centimetre drop will be great!
