I’ve had this car for six years now. I haven’t driven it much—total mileage is around 90,000 km—because I don’t travel long distances with it. My workplace is close to home, so there aren’t many long trips. In terms of fuel consumption? It’s amazing. It averages about 5.8L per 100 km, so when I put in 100 EGP worth of fuel, I can go a long way. That’s one of the main reasons I’ve held on to it. In the first year, I used to do maintenance every 3 months, but I noticed the oil was still clean as if just changed, so I switched to every 6 months. Now, I do it once a year and everything’s going just fine. What bothers me is that the car doesn’t look stylish. It’s a bit cramped, and honestly, it feels kind of like a microbus—that’s the biggest thing that keeps me from being fully comfortable with it. Plus, the dashboard is all hard plastic with basic design. But since I got the slightly higher trim, it does have push-button start, keyless entry, and parking sensors. When it comes to driving, the car needs a gentle touch. You have to press the gas pedal softly to get it moving smoothly. I tried pushing it to 130 km/h once, and it started to feel shaky. The cabin gets noisy, but I just play music and it’s manageable. The suspension isn’t super soft—you do feel the bumps, but they’re not harsh. In summary: it’s a highly economical car. Fuel consumption is low, spare parts are affordable, and the engine is still in great condition. If only it were a bit more spacious and had a better design, it would’ve been perfect.

Hey everyone, where do you guys get your money from?? I'm 27 this year and haven't achieved anything. Even my girlfriend broke up with me because she thought I didn't have money! I'm so confused, feel like my life is just going to be like this, can't seem to do anything right every day [crying].
Can the startup animation and sound of the MG One be turned off? It's so loud every time that I feel like shutting down. 😅
The Jeep 2500 has been gone for many years. Can't they just transfer the interior from the 212? Even if there are no designers, they could at least copy it, right? [Facepalm] I've always liked this car, but every time I'm about to change cars, the interior makes me reconsider.
4If the Haval Thunder Dragon were designed like this, I guess the sales wouldn't be so low.
5I've got a T-Roc 1.5T for about a year now, and did the first service at 4,000 km. The dealership said the second service is due either after a year or at 10,000 km. Now it's at 11,000 km, and I'm feeling that the low-speed acceleration isn't smooth. Should I just go and change the oil outside? The dealership mentioned that 10,000 km is too long.
6I have a question about maintenance. I bought my car in September 2022, and I've driven 15,000 kilometers so far. I've done maintenance 3 times and changed the oil 3 times. I feel that future maintenance doesn't need to be so frequent. If I drive 7,500 kilometers a year, should I do maintenance once a year?
7I did the first maintenance at 3,800 km in half a year, and now it's almost a year with only 6,500 km. The 4S shop notified me for maintenance again. Does everyone do maintenance every six months?
8I got a 2021 Murano in July 2021, and just recently on a long drive, I found that the AC was blowing hot air with no cooling. After visiting the repair shop and refilling the refrigerant, the AC started cooling again. The car is just 3 years old, is it normal for the refrigerant to run out so quickly, or could there be a leak?
9Since I got the car, I’ve driven it a few times on intercity highways and elevated city roads. At first, fuel consumption was quite high — around 12 L/100 km — but after some regular use, it dropped to 7.8. It hasn’t gone any lower since then, even though I’ve only driven about 500 km in less than a month. Honestly, every time I refuel, it stings a little 😅. This is my first car, so I don’t have much to compare it to, but driving feels smooth overall. Once you hit 100 km/h, tire noise becomes noticeable, but throttle response during overtaking is pretty decent. The thing that annoyed me most is the infotainment system. There’s no built-in CarPlay, so I bought an external adapter. While it technically works, Bluetooth is unstable, and the navigation voice won’t come through the car speakers. On top of that, the system randomly activates and starts saying weird things, and the voice assistant sometimes greets you with “Hi” and other times with “I’m here” — honestly, it feels awkward. I’m not sure if all Japanese brands do this, or just this one. As for interior space, the rear seat area is quite good, but the new car smell is still strong, so I’ve thrown in a bunch of charcoal bags to absorb it. Overall, I’m satisfied for a first car, but there are definitely things that could be better.
