I personally think that for the most part the MG brand is dead in the UK. Apart from in enthusiasts like us.
For MG to succeed they need to appear with a FULL line up of cars. Not just one car at a time, so they have something which appeals to all.

I wouldnt of used them pics if i was him, thats the chinese spec model which looks cheap and does the car no favours, MG UK has confirmed UK cars will come with 18" wheels as standard and slightly lower suspension.

We will be acquiring a new MG 6 hopefully in November and will set about making it a more sporty car with engine remaps and a better more efficient intercooler set up and induction and exhaust.
I for one liked that colour in the flesh, but the interior does need some sorting.
The 3.6 v6 will be a multivalve vtech and we should see well over 220bhp from it.
There is a also a diesel coming and the diesel and v6 models will have a new 6 speed gearbox .

yeah definately not a car i'd ever consider, looks cheap and nasty - seats look nice but I guess you can't expect too much from a ?15k car..

I should hope a 3.6 V6 would produce around the 300bhp mark? 3.6L isn't exactly small, are they using an american engine? lol

I was speaking to the MG PR team at Silverstone and they were saying all the cars shown so far have been the Chineese spec cars. The UK spec will be a bit lower, have bigger wheels and likely have a boot spoiler of some sort and stiffer suspension.
To be honest I was so ready not to like the 6, but actually in the flesh it looks ok. The front is quite mean and the inside is well set out. Has the strangest handbrake I've ever seen though!
