Why do you say that Wayne? I test drove one last year when they first came out and thought it was fantastic value! You can pick em up fully loaded for about 12K and most reviews say that the handling is class leading, its just that some of the interior plastics feel a bit cheap and there is only one engine available. Have you driven one?

No but sitting in it was bad enough let alone finding out they are still using the K series engine  :shocked: Yes maybe you can get one for £12k but they are sheding value like water.

Well, a new turbo engine that is a heavily reworked version of the K series (which is a great engine).  :wink: :grin: :lipsrsealed:

Anyway, I'll shut up about MG's now, this is a golf forum. If you dont like em, fair enough.  :tongue:

Fantastic cars mate! Someone down the road from me has one of them, took me for a spin in it and I was surprised at what a nice speed/comfort/handling balance it had.

Im a proper MG convert now aint I  :grin: :laugh:

Not a bad choice (if cheap), Bmw engine gives nowhere near the amount of problems that the k series engines do.

They only came up after I was googling good tow cars :grin: TBH I think I might well get a late one as they come with tons of kit, can tow 1600kg (So great for the golf on a trailer), do good MPG and by all accounts are actually a very good car. I also think they look pretty good in the later facelift guise.

New jobs paying well then :smiley:

But hang on... you're buying an MG/ Rover to tow your Golf?  :shocked:

Have you banged your head while driving with the roof down?   :undecided:
