Are they using the G series that was under development when MGR folded?

No.

Wont bother me where it was made, think its a horrible looking car!

 

[ViT]

It seems like more and more of them are getting crashed? I could name four that have been in accidents already. Anybody else noticed this?

Wonder what TG will make of it this Sunday? (5th Feb)

Somehow think I have a rough idea since its not Italian and about £130000...

Just bought a MG6 GT 1.8T TSE in Granite Grey (well my wife has!). Fits nicely with our MG ZT400 SE, MGR V8, MG X-Power SV-R and MGF 1.8i! I am a MG franchised dealer, but I'm a serious MG nut too! What I fail to understand is why anyone who loves MG would look at any other marque if the MG6 fits the bill? It drives great (better than a ZT), looks good, has MASSIVE spec (no other car comes close for the money!) and returning 32mpg. Lastly and most importantly two letters in an octagonal badge on the grille.......MG !

Granite Grey

You need to get her some stickers like this Granite Grey one:

No fleet manager in there right mind will touch them, until Rover attach the fleet market like other far eastern manufactures they are dead in the water.

Avis have.

Rumbled!
:slap::lol:

TBH this model is probably one of the best selling aids they can have - its a great model and the more I look at it the more the thought of a real one appeals

Has someone hacked into Garys account?

Them wheels would look nice on my zed :slap:. omg there horrid what am i thinking they look like cheap wheel trims you get from b+m bargains

 

[mattie007]

I agree, the 6 really does need a wider choice of wheels. The TSE wheels are nice but it would look good with straights or mk2 11 spokes.

 

[Gary Gee]

The only reason to buy a TSE in my view is for the better wheels - could live without the other bits n bobs, plus the leather looked poor in the one i looked at.

I looked at a diesel one last week,as the cars on the test day,sweet FA wrong with the leather.

Must have been better than the one I looked at - it was thin enough to read through, reckon kitchen towel would stay better looking for longer.
Have a look at pics of press cars - some are looking decidedly "baggy".
Ok they've had some use but compare a few months old with a few 1000 miles against what it will look like at 5 years old with 50 - 60k of use.
The car itself has grown on me - the company (saic) hasn't, I'd actually like the car more if they admitted its Chinese with an MG badge.
All this in the ads about great English brand and its related cobblers turns me right off.

Set of old ZT alloys would sort it out:

Take a look at the drivers seat on this 8k miler then!

Or this 7k miler:

Just in case these ads finish heres the pics (8mth old / approx 8k mile cars remember), sorry about quality but camera phone pic of screen as I couldn't simply copy pic. Can't apologise about the quality of the leather as that ain't my fault :lol:

 

[ViT]

As an owner of a Zed, I can't really say much about the quality of leather in cars lol

I've driven a 6, and it was fantastic. Really smooth engine, bags of grunt and it felt like I could throw it around corners as much as the ZR, and for a big saloon that's damn impressive.

I think style wise for me, the arse is too high! I'd like to see a sportier version, slightly lowered, something done with the bottom of the front bumper (Seems to angle up from the front wheel - looks strange to me, the whole car overall angles down from rear to front, but the lower front bumper profile angles up?)

I honestly think it's a great car, just in need of a better engine for 2012, and a few minor styling tweaks

Edit, And I don't like the light clusters for some reason. Look a bit "That'll do". Lights tend to define a model range, the MG 6's are a bit bland
