Buy MG Motor UK IM5 Price, PPC or HP
Buying What should I be paying? You'll be able to test drive one of these yourself from September, but MG has already confirmed pricing. The Standard Range kicks things off from £39,450, then the Long Range with the bigger battery is £44,950. Both are rear-wheel drive. Up top is the Performance which adds a motor for all-wheel drive: the price you pay for that turn of speed is range. And money, obviously. It's £48,495 for that. Advertisement - Page continues below The entry point is on par with the Tesla Model 3, while the Hyundai Ioniq 6, Polestar 2 and BYD Seal are all at least five grand more expensive. The BMW i4 is a full £10k+ dearer. Only the Hyundai gets close on range and peak charging speed, though obviously if you find a charger capable of maxing out the MG's 396kW then please send us that week's lottery numbers in advance. We don't think the IM5 is good value compared to those well-rounded rivals, but it could be one day if the suspension gets sorted and the handling improved. There's not much in the way of options. You can have the grey interior seen above or a white alternative, and there's four colours to choose from: Arctic White, Nevis Blue, Rembrandt Grey, Black Pearl. One for any Pirates of the Caribbean fans, that last one. What do I get on each of those? Powertrain aside? Exactly the same stuff, with the exception of wheels which grow from 19in aero jobs shod in Hankook rubber to 20in 'sport' Pirellis on the Performance. We can only hope the 19s ride better than the 20s… Advertisement - Page continues below As we've come to expect from cars from China, the kit list is the IM5's fortress. It comes with a 20-speaker audio system (they act like surround sound for the parking sensors, so the info they give you is useful) as well as the enormo-screens and multitude of cameras to help avoid prangs. As discussed the windows are double-glazed for excellent sound insulation (backed up by road noise cancellation tech), and inside the front seats are heated and ventilated, there's a 50W wireless phone charger, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a trio of USB-C ports, two 12V sockets, 256-colour ambient lighting, plus keyless entry and a heat pump that should help with efficiency in the winter months. A Euro NCAP rating is pending. The UK warranty is seven years or 80,000 miles.

Rolls-Royce Phantom Dentelle Is Adorned with Delicate Embroidery
Rolls-Royce has revealed another bespoke one-off, the Phantom Dentelle, which was commissioned as a present for the buyer's father. The Dentelle has two-tone bodywork, pairing Arctic White with a unique Palais Nemasker Dawn hue and a thin coachline that includes a depiction of a leafy plant. The floral imagery appears again on the dashboard and between the rear seats, embroidered with intricate, multi-layered stitching. Did you forget Father's Day this year and feel guilty about it? Well, get ready to feel even worse, because the latest one-off Rolls-Royce was commissioned by a client from the Middle East as a gift to their father. The bespoke creation, called the Rolls-Royce Phantom Dentelle, draws specific inspiration from a couture lace piece that bore three-dimensional floral designs. Rolls-Royce The Phantom's upright, distinguished bodywork wears a two-tone paint job, with the lower section finished in Crystal over Arctic White and the upper body painted Crystal over Palais Nemasker Dawn, an exclusive hue. A delicate coachline runs from the grille to the taillights on each side and is mirrored by a white coachline along the hood and after the rear doors. Above the rear wheel, the main coachline, which is finished in the color Sunrise, is interrupted by an intricate, hand-painted depiction of a leafy branch. The 22-inch disc wheels feature a center cap with a body-colored ring, and the Pantheon grille hosts a Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament in rose gold. Rolls-Royce Open the doors and step over rose gold engraved sill plates, and you'll find a mix of leather upholstery in Sunrise and Grace White. But the real focus is on the dashboard, where what Rolls-Royce calls the "Gallery," the space ahead of the front passenger, displays an ornate embroidered image of flowers, with Rolls-Royce using a series of different stitch techniques and thread densities to create a layered, three-dimensional look. The dashboard artwork consists of over 160,000 stitches. Rolls-Royce The rear passengers get their own masterpiece, with another set of elegant flowers adorning the section between the rear seats, requiring 70,000 stitches. Mirroring the hood ornament, the speaker grilles are finished in rose gold, and there are Rolls-Royce logos on the headrests. There's no word on how much the Phantom Dentelle costs, but we imagine it is quite a bit more than the Phantom's $517,750 base price. Regardless, the one-off creation is a beautiful reminder that the toolset you bought Dad for Father's Day isn't going to cut it, at least not when you've got millions of dollars in the bank.

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars' Interior Trim Center points out that the intricate embroidery in both the Gallery and the rear Waterfall area is exceptionally detailed.

The space is completed with Piano White veneer and embroidered "RR" monograms on both the front and rear headrests, creating a lounge-like atmosphere. The car features a bespoke two-tone paint job.

This luxury sedan can accelerate from 0 to 96 kmph in 4.5 seconds and has a top speed of 250 kmph.
