MGZS vrs MG6

Ha Ha bet you couldn't resist clicking on that thread but this is the question... http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/mg/mg6/...nder-17500-mg6
What sort of punters are MG going for these days? I bet many of us lot get up early on a Sunday morning to experience the awesomeness of the ZS while the roads are quite but what of MG6 owners? Do they hitch up the caravan and go for a poodle along the A303 to see how many cars they can hold up?.
I grew up to wanting exciting MG's, but this incarnation of of the brand doesn't offer me anything and best bargain caravan tow car sums them up.

Not Irish ones anyway! There are none over here. I got chatting to an ex-MGR main dealer last week about it. He still has a connection with MG, but the price of the MG6, by the time it reaches the consumer, would be prohibitively expensive. He's now a main dealer for Kia

I used to have a ZTT V6 I was thinking about part exing it for an MG6..... I went for a test drive in the 6 with the family, they were laughing in the back about how the stitching on the seats differed between each seat, it was even different shades.... Anyway very lacklustre compared to a ZTT and a ZS, and to be honest I think the ZS is more out dated than a ZT but would I change either for a 6... No way MG is dead! Long live MG!
