As a whole it's nice, but the front...  and the interior would have to be something different.
It's too 'Rover' for an 'MG' IMO.

I don't like the headlights but other than that it is quite nice, I love the wheels. Would look nicer with a bit of beefing up I think

Not a bad effort, the dash looks a bit bland and what is the ignition start fob all about? Looks a bit clumsy but overall not a bad looking car for 'Rover', still has the old mans look about it though.

Yea, but it's hardly KnightRider is it!
That style of dash works for a concept car or racecar, not some Chinese Rover 75 incarnation, it just don't belong, but that is just my opinion.

Well i think it's nicer than that cream interior. It's just too much IMO.

Well, i did read somewhere that the design of that car was originally made by mg rover just before they went bust. I think it was going to be the next new 'rover 45'. Just before mg rover went bust they were almost ready to introduce this car to the press, but, as we all know it was too little to late!!
Now the chinese are taking all the glory for it.
