New MGS5 incoming

[tr7v8]

I have just ordered an MGS5 which the dealer informed me is now in the country & being registered today. Its replacing a 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV so used to plug in Hybrids but I've only ever charged the Mitzy away from home twice in nearly 4 years.
Expect zillions of questions, I have no home charger at the moment. I have an external 13 amp socket which the Mitzy is plugged into permanently when not in use. I have just ordered a 13 amp lead from Amazon in preparation for the car arriving which will be second week of October.
Trying to sort out who to change my leccy supplier to at the mo. EDF my incumbent supplier do EV overnight at 9Pper kW Octopus is 7p, Hmmmm.

I’ve had one of these since July and done 3000 miles so far. For a budget EV I think it’s pretty decent. There’s a few minor software quirks that you learn to live with, but overall I’m quite happy with it, and the wife likes it too and hasn’t complained about it.

You will only get the 7p Octopus rate on Intelligent Octopus Go if you get a compatible charger. MGs aren’t directly compatible with this tariff.

Octopus Go is 8.5p (no charger required) for 5 hrs a night. I went EON, 6.7p for 7 hrs per night on 3 pin plug. About 1p per kWh above the cap at other times. Worth it for me.

Just gone to E ON from EDF. Their stupid website won't accept VPN logins!
